MAEVE ROGERS
What. The. Actual. Fuck.

He snapped me out of my thoughts, and I finally came to my senses after this whole time.

I heard him leaving the room, walking out of the bathroom, sitting down on the bed, still quite shocked.

"What happened", James opened the door, standing there, "he umm, he kissed me", he stood there, staring at me in shock.

"I-I have to get out of here", I got up from bed, starting to walk towards the closet before James stopped me, "wait, no, listen to me", he held my wrists, keeping me in place.

"I know you want to get out of here, this instant, but you can't, no matter what, they'll find you, no matter where you'll go or what you'll do, they will find you Maeve".

I covered my face, crying, knowing he's right, "I-I don't want to be here anymore", I let out before he pulled me into him, letting me cry, "I know, it's okay, shh".

"Hey, uhh, can we talk with Maeve for a second?", we turned towards Xavier, who was standing at the door, his hands in his pockets, "we can talk here if you want?", I nodded slowly, pulling away from James.

"I'll wait outside, I watched him leave, everyone walking inside the room, sitting down wherever they can, me standing in the middle of the room, not even daring to look at Nico.

"What did you want to talk about?", I muttered quietly, clearing my throat, "uhh, fuck, I can't say it", Gio said, running his fingers through his hair.

"Don't look at me, I'm not saying it", Romeo said as everyone stared at him, what the hell is going on, "do we have to?", Vince asked, "yes!", he sighed as everyone answered, rubbing his jaw.

"We've made a decision that...", Xavier sighed, shutting his mouth, "I'm sorry, guys, I really can't".

The room fell silent, just staring at them in confusion, "Will someone just spit it the fuck out already?!", the tension in the room was killing me.

"I can't, no, I'm not doing it", Nico stood up, walking to leave the room, Gio grabbing his shirt, stopping him.

He didn't even dare to look me in the eyes, his lips were soft, they felt....perfect against mine, and I hate it.

Romeo let out a sigh, walking towards me, placing his hand on the small of my back, softly rubbing it.

"We've decided, together, that....that wearelettingyougo, for now", I furrowed my eyebrows, looking at him questionably, "what was that?".

"We are letting you go, for now", Vince let out a breath of relief, face palming himself, "y-you're what?".

"Please don't make it harder for us more then it is, please Maevey", Romeo looked at me with a hurt look on his face.

"We'll let you pack some clothes if you want to, and we will give you money, and everything you need, you can go wherever you want, do whatever you want, for now".

"What do you mean, for now".

"We will be off your back for a while, we don't know for how long, but we will, don't expect us in the sooner time, in the sooner time.

"This is one of your sick twisted jokes, right?!, I'll go to Spain and you'll come after me again!".

"No, no Maeve, this time it's for real, we promise", I crossed my arms, staring at them skeptically, "how can I believe you".

"Maeve please-".

"No, tell me, how can I believe you", Xavier rubbed the back of his neck, Nico running his fingers through his hair, "we don't know how, we also know that you can't trust us, but please try".
