At Least A Million More

Chapter 6

(Oliver)

Sometimes I question how much longer I'm going to allow that boy to mess with my heart. I feel like giving up, but then he just does something and I feel like I'd die if I did.

"No! Not while he's in there." I hear Noah whine to Delsin. Delsin. I hate him already. I see the way he looks at Noah and I hate it. He could steal my Noah.

I sit in the darkness and I honestly feel like shooting myself. Seems like the right thing to do right now. The person I like hates me with a passion, my sister is mad at the world over some stupid thing that happened between us earlier, and now Delsin, a guy who's known Noah his whole life, came back and seems to like Noah.

My phone starts ringing in the living room and I groan. I don't want to go in there and see them so I let it ring. It goes off every ten minutes. I curse and go in the living room. I see Noah cuddled up with Delsin and Dylan and I feel like my hearts been ripped out of my chest.

"What?" I ask, answering the phone, not even bothering to look at the caller I.D.

"Oliver? It's Cassie! I need help!" Cassie cries through the phone.

"What? What's wrong Cassie?" I ask. I obviously spoke to loud because Delsin, Noah, and Dylan woke up and stared at me.

"I got mad a Noah so I took off and my car broke down so I decided to walk the rest of the way and now I think I'm being followed!" Cassie sobbed.

"Cassie? What makes you think that?" I ask, pulling my shoes on.

"Every time I turn around I see another guy! At first it was just one and I didn't worry but now there's six of them and I'm freaking out!" Cassie sobbed loudly. Noah and Dylan started getting ready, Delsin ran upstairs to Trent's room, waking him up and running back down to Kenneth's room.

They run around pulling clothes on and yelling at each other. "What do I do Ollie?!" Cassie sobs again. Stay calm! Keep walking! I'm on my way to get you!" I say, walking out the door.

"Oliver wait for me!" Noah yells, running out the door.

"I've gotta pick up Cassie! Follow me in your car!" I yell as Delsin and the others run toward Noah's car. "Cassie? Still there?"

"Yeah, yeah I'm here." Cassie says, gasping.

"Where are you?"

"I- I don't know! I don't know Oliver!" Cassie sobs. I look at my GPS and see where Cassie is.

"I've got the GPS! Don't worry Cassie! I'm coming! I'm going to have to hang up! Is that ok? Is that ok Cassie?"I ask, strapping my helmet on.

"Yeah! As long as you come get me!" Cassie cries. "Oh my god! Ollie hurry up! They've got a gun!" Before I hang up I hear three gunshots and Cassie screams.

"Shit." I mutter, driving off at full speed. I look at my phone quickly and see she's in the same place. That's not good. Not good at all. Suddenly she starts moving and I speed up even more. Not safe. But I don't care.

"Slow down nigga!" I hear Noah yell behind me. I look quickly and see they're a little behind. I roll me eyes and turn the corner. Noah and his nicknames. . . Or whatever that is.

I pull up to where it says Cassie is and I don't see her. I look down at my phone and see that it's running toward me. I turn around and the next thing I know, I'm being attacked by brown hair. "Ew, Cas, your hair tastes like dirt." I laugh, spitting her hair out of my mouth.

"Well soorryy! But I was hiding in the bushes over there!" Cassie exclaims, pointing at trees.

"Those aren't bushes. . ." I laugh. Man she's crazy.
