Back to Destiny's POV

I woke up the next morning and noticed Matthew was gone. Hayes was snoring and I decided to mess with him. I got close to his face and then screamed. He jumped up and screamed. I laughed and he glared at me.

We got dressed and went to go find everyone. They were in the lobby. Hayes left and pouted in a chair. "What did you do to him?" Cameron laughed.

"I woke him up by screaming in his ear," I answered and the guys laughed. That's when I noticed Matthew was missing again. Where could he be? I shook off the thought and we all went out to eat breakfast.

We laughed and had fun. I got to know the guys a little better but all I could think about was Matthew. Where was he? I tried as hard as I could to push off the thought but nothing was working.

We finally decided to go back to the hotel and when we walked in I saw Matthew. He wasn't paying attention so when he wasn't looking I jumped on his back. He jumped and I laughed. He turned around and smiled. "Where were you? We missed you at breakfast," I told him.

"Somewhere," Matthew said and then walked away. What? I went over to Nash and stayed with him. "Wasn't Matthew just here?" Johnson asked. "Yeah, I tried talking to him but he gave me a one word answer and then walked away," I told them. "What's up with him?" Aaron asked. Everyone shrugged.

I noticed Nash squirm but I shook it off. "I'll go check and see if I can find him," I said. Everyone nodded and I went to go look for him. I went up to our room, but he wasn't there. I checked everywhere in the hotel. The only place left was the roof.

I walked up the flights of stairs until I reached the top. I opened the door and sure enough there was Matthew. I walked over to him and stood by him.

"What's wrong?" I asked him. He sighed and answered, "Nothing." "You're going to have to talk to me sooner or later," I told him. "I don't want to talk about it," Matthew said. "Come on, talking about it will make it better," I said.

"This- us being friends - can't continue," Matthew said. I felt my heart break. Not only had he friend zoned me but he-he couldn't even be friends with me. "Wh-what? Wh-Why?" I asked on the verge of tears.

He didn't look at me. That's when I remembered how Nash had squirmed at the mention of Matthew's name. "Nash. He told you to stay away from me," I yelled. "Okay, fine, he did. I just- I can't hurt you," Matthew told me.

"Why can't you hurt me?" I asked. "I-I like you okay?" Matthew admitted. I felt my heart glue back together. He liked me. "Then why did you-" I started but was cut off by Matthew putting his lips onto mine. I felt sparks, butterflies, all in one.

I kissed back. Matthew slowly pulled away. I smiled up at him and he smiled at me. His face dropped suddenly. "What?" I asked. "That was a mistake, this can't happen," Matthew said. There goes my heart.

"Why?" I asked. "Destiny... I... I already have a girlfriend," Matthew told me. "You what?" I asked as a tear slipped down. Matthew started to walk towards me and I started to walk backwards.

"I have a girlfriend," Matthew repeated. I was shocked. "I'm sorry," Matthew told me. "No, no you aren't. If you were you wouldn't have led me on. You wouldn't have kissed me and you sure wouldn't have got my hopes up. I like you Matthew but I now know that I shouldn't. You didn't even tell me? Why would you-why would- you know what, I can't even talk to you. Goodbye Matthew," I said as I turned around and ran away.

I ran down the stairs and heard Matthew calling behind me. I ran faster, I ran into the lobby and over to Nash. He got up and looked at me confused. I hugged him and cried in his arms. "What happened?" Nash asked as Hayes walked up. Hayes leaned over and hugged me as the boys watched.

"Matthew... He kissed me.... And then told me he had a girlfriend... And then-" I started sobbing, not able to finish my sentence. "He did what?!" the boys exclaimed. I continued to sob. I heard Matthew's shouts and Hayes got in front of me so that he was blocking me from Matthew.

"Destiny," Matthew started. "I told you to stay away from my sister, I told you to leave her alone so things wouldn't go bad. Now look what you've done, things have only gotten worse," Nash spat. Matthew looked at me sadly and I looked away.

"Destiny..." Matthew pleaded. "Just go away Matthew!" I yelled. He looked at me shocked and sad, then walked away and out of the hotel. I cried and all the boys hugged me. "I-I need some time alone," I said. I walked away and went up the stairs, I went up onto the roof and sat close to the edge.

No one loves me. No one cares about me. I've almost been raped by my ex who cheated on me. Now, I had a guy kiss me and then tell me he had a girlfriend. Maybe this is the universe's way of telling me that I'm not supposed to live a good life.

I sighed and felt tears. "Don't do it," a voice said. I turned around and saw Shawn. "Do what?" I asked. "Jump, don't jump," Shawn told me. "Why shouldn't I? All I've been through is pain," I said. "So many people care about you. Nash, Hayes, and..... Me," Shawn said.

I looked up at him surprised. "You care about me?" I asked. Shawn scratched the back of his neck nervously. "Yeah," Shawn said as he sat down next to me. "Why?" I asked. "What?" Shawn asked surprised. "Why do you care about me?" I asked.

"Why wouldn't I? You're beautiful, amazing, funny, you bright up the room when you enter, what's there not to love about you?" Shawn asked. I laughed lightly. "Matthew was stupid, no one should treat you like that," Shawn told me. I looked up to him and smiled.

"You should find someone who would treat you better," Shawn said. "Like who?" I asked. "Me," I heard him say. He looked from my lips back up to my eyes. He started to lean in and I did too. His lips met mine and our lips moved in sync.

This kiss was not like the one with Matthew. It was filled with passion and love. Shawn pulled me closer to him, not taking his lips off of mine. I put my arms around his neck and pulled him closer, deepening the kiss.

We pulled away and I smiled at Shawn. He smiled at me. "Now's the part where you tell me you have a girlfriend," I laugh lightly. "Nope, I'm a single pringle, but you can change that," Shawn told me. I stared into his brown eyes and he asked, "Destiny, will you be my girlfriend?"

I smiled at him and said, "Yes." He kissed me and I kissed back.

For once, I felt like I had actually found someone who cared about me. I was, dare I say, happy?
