Nic's POV

"She's a bitch."

"She treated me like shit."

"She couldn't stand up for herself."

"She's annoying."

"She's a slut."

Voice after voice popped into my head. Every single person that I've cared for I hurt. I was in a dark room, sitting and listening. The words didn't hurt me anymore. I knew they were true. I was crying for them. No one deserves to be treated like nothing and I did that to everyone I cared for. I did that to Nathan.

I was woken up by a bunch of yelling.

"What the fuck did you do to her!" said a voice. It sounded like Angie.

"She was trying to go out! We had to stop her!"

"You could've done something else! It looks like you were trying to rape her!" I started hearing chuckling which I figured came from Tom. I opened my eyes and looked up to see Max, Angie and Tom over by the door. I was kind of entertained by them arguing but I really did not want to be tied to a chair any longer.

"A little help here?" I asked. They all looked at me and when Tom and Max made no move to untie me, Angie came over.

"Normally I would be laughing but this is just ridiculous. You need to get a grip of yourself and stop being a bitch." murmured Angie.

"Jerk." I replied.

"Slut."

"Whore."

"What comes after that?" asked Angie.

"I don't know. Probably prostitute." I answered. This made Angie laugh. It was an insider between us since high school.

"We miss you Nic." Angie finally said after an awkward silence. She finished untying me and I went over to the bed. Before I could knock out again I whispered, "I miss me too."

Angie must have heard me and came over and gave me a hug. I don't know what came over me, but I started crying. Max and Tom heard and came over too. They all came around me and soon I was engulfed by hugs. I didn't deserve any of it though. I think I said that out loud because Tom quickly answered.

"Of course you deserve this you bitch." That got me to smile a bit.

"No I don't. All I've done is hurt the ones I care about. Look at you guys. I like ruined your past few months by being this drama queen over a boy." I whispered.

"Nic, in all the years I've known you I've learned many things. 1) Never take your cereal or chocolate, 2) you're a drama queen and 3) you care too much for everyone to ever hurt them. You make mistakes, but a mistake means you did it by accident. Everyone has accidents." said Angie. I looked at her and smiled. She always knew what to say to cheer me up.

"Thanks guys."

We continued talking for a bit and I told them what really happened between me and Greg. They understood and it felt nice to not feel distant from anyone anymore.

*The Next Day*

We were now back on the bus just being silly. Angie kindly smuggled my favorite cereal on the plane so I was sat eating that as the guys were throwing food at each other. They really were a bunch of idiots. Angie and I would make fun of them when we saw something really ridiculous. I couldn't help but notice though, that Nathan was off on the side by himself. He had came back late last night and hasn't really spoken much to anyone. I decided to walk on over and see how he was doing.
