~Brinley's POV
The objective of life is to survive, but what is surviving without actually living. All humans go through the same cycle, school, relationships, then that special one, the marriage, the children, retirement, grandkids and then death. However some stray some don't stick to this cycle, and the ones that don't are the ones that are happiest maybe not all the time but mostly they are.
It was currently Saturday night and normally the seven of us all go to James' house. This week we weren't for some reason we were going to the trees in the edge of town, apparently there was 'business' to attend to, probably nothing but you never know with them.
I pulled on my coat and left the house walking towards the edge of town, my Heart sped up as I saw the four boys walking down the road but mainly at the sight of Calum. I don't know why I think it was annoyance, the fact that he wouldn't listen and the fact that he wasn't fazed. My face remained emotionless as I blanked them walking past, but I heard one of them whisper something probably a rumour but it still made my breath hitch.
I carried on until I spotted the group in the trees,
"Finally Brinley we were waiting to start," Elliot spoke which was strange since they never call me Brinley normally Brin or b,
"Right w shave our rules don't we," James carried on,
"No interaction with others, they get into your head, get the truth and then they'll tell everyone. Is that what you want?" He was now looking at me,
"Why are you looking at me!" I near enough shouted and then there heads all turned,
"We know b," codie said and my face changed confused,
"Know what exactly because I for one don't fücking know?!?"
"Just calm down we just, you know the rules," Cameron said him being the call one out of us all,
"Brinley we're not stupid!" James shouted right in my face so I pushed him back,
"Right I don't know what your talking about you think me out of all of us is the one to speak to others? Who have I let get to me no one?!"
"How about that tanned boy the one with the weird friends? We've seen you speak to him Brinley!"
"It's not like I chose to I didn't go up to him! He came up to me,"
"Why did you tell him to fück off,"
"Yeah like normal," Cameron then butted in,
"I did he just didn't, I didn't know what to do,"
"So he forced himself on you in a way," all there faces looked at me and I didn't know what to do, if I'd agreed then they'd go and practically kill him but if I say no then I get blame, but then I thought if I said nothing then they'll still get him and maybe that would make him realise that he didn't need this.
So I went with the later said nothing and looked down, codie, violet and Evan came up to me giving me hugs and Cameron, James and Elliot started to get angry,
"I'm going to kill him," James said and the three of them walked off, and even after everything I'd done is never felt like a worse person.
A little bit after we managed to catch up to the other three enough to follow them and I saw them following Calum. He was now alone a step others must have gone home and he was entering a house, the lights were all off and there were no cars there so he must have been the only one there. I don't think I'd ever been more guilty in my life , I swallowed the lump in my throat as I saw James barge in the house pinning Calum up.
Me, codie, violet and Evan walked slowly up and I really didn't want to see what they were doing to him. If like had actually done something wrong then I wouldn't have felt guilty but he hadn't really well not that he knew of anyway.
The four of us stood at the front gate to his house and waited for the others, when they came out Cameron had a bloody nose and Elliot a bloody lip but James just bloody hands. A sharp breathe entered my body and I tried to look past them to see what had happened but I was so dam small.
"Come on Brinley," James said as they started to walk off, I just stood there froze.
"I think I'm going home, I'll just go this way I want to be alone." I said they all nodded and I headed the opposite direction slowly. I wasn't sure what I should do, could I really just leave someone for dead. I didn't know how much damage they had caused, he hadn't even done anything. I was never normally this caring and I never normally felt guilt but it took over my body and I made my way back down the street to see what my three friends had done.
The door was still slightly open and I could see down the hall slightly the blood spread on the floor. I slowly creaked the door open and walked down the house, I didn't know if I should speak so I just carried on walking into the house deeper which brought back memories that I didn't want to think about. I managed to make it into the kitchen and saw like sat at a island in the middle he had a bruised eye his nose was bleeding and he had cuts on his face, I walked up to him and a tear escaped his eye.
"Are you not afraid that I'll force myself on you," he spat at me and my face remained emotionless "I hate the fact you show no emotion," and my face cringed
"Shut up!" I shouted, "just let me help you okay," and his face crinkled up, I searched in the cupboards and finally found a first aid kit. I went up to him and started to wipe away the blood from his face, his face tensed and relaxed as his face finally cleaned. He sat on the chair and I walked back in front of him still being slightly shorter, I placed a plaster on one of his bigger cuts and walked back.
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why would you say that?" I thought for a moment, I didn't even know why I just did I needed too.
"I didn't do it on purpose,"
"Why did you though?"
"Look we're not aloud to talk to other people, when we do its just so they can find out what happened. So we tend to just stick to each other, they knew we were talking to you so they started shouting and asking questions I just stayed quiet because you don't need this and you should have anything to do with me," he stayed silent and I got up to leave.
"What if I don't leave you alone?"
"Do you want to be beat up again!"
"Not really but-"
"But what? Your just stupid fückboy!" I left the house and went back to mine luckily no one was home so I went upstairs to think, I don't even know why I'm letting this get to me.
I should have just left him in pain, why I felt guilty I don't know but it was strange.
