~Previous Chapter~

Rain begins to fall lightly, the raindrops hit the leaves,bringing my attention away from him. His head drifts to the side, he must have fallen asleep. I needed to kill him, I need her back.

I had a plan to get her back, and now he will no longer be in the picture.

I know what I have to do. I have to kill him. That's the only way Shay will want me back. I can feel the excitement run through me, I get such a rush. It feels amazing.
I peak around the corner and see him sleeping in a chair by the door. I take quiet steps onto the wooden porch.

He shifts a little bit in the chair, that's when I freeze. If I blow this, there's no way I'll ever get what her, I had to do it right

All I had to do is suffocate him and just move his body to the truck so Shay won't see him. That was the plan.

I mingle forward and grab him by the back of his head and cover his mouth with my hand. He begins to struggle. He's strong. He grabs me by my fire arm and stands to his feet.
Fuck, I blew it.

"Who the hell are you," he screams. His voice is startling. "Tell me!" He takes a step towards me.

"Ive come for Shay! I know she's in there!"

"Wait.. You're Cameron. The guy that kicked her out. You're never getting near her, do you realize what kind of pain she's in because of you? Oh wait, no, you don't, all you care about is yourself."

"Shut up and bring her outside and we never have to see each other again," I say. I just wanted her so bad i could snap his neck and be done with this.

"You're a fucking joke," he screams. Does he ever shut up? I mean, at least his not smiling.

The front door bursts open.

"Ashton? What's going on?" It was Shay. Standing in sleepily, rubbing her eyes.

"Hey baby," I smirk. God, she was hot. Hotter than ever.

"Cameron?" She exclaims. "What the hell are you doing here?" She questions.

"I came back for you, I know you want me back,"

"I thought I made it clear I want nothing to do with you," her voice was stern, but I could tell she was scared. Ashton was standing behind her, just waiting for me to make my move.

"You can't say no to me," I step closer. I could almost touch her again.

"Stay away from her!" Ashton blurts. He grabs her by the waist and pulls her behind him.

"And what are you going to do? Kill me?" I laugh loudly.

"Let's just settle this." Shay says quietly. "Cameron, I'll go with you."

"Excellent." I smile widely.

"No! Shays staying here where she's safe."

"Ashton, stop. This is the only way he won't hurt you, it's just better this way." She rubs his arm. I can see the tears form in his eyes, what a pansy.

"I'll be out soon, don't hurt him, Cameron."

She slams the door, leaving me and Ashton outside.

"Give me one reason not to kill you," Ashton says through his teeth, holding back tears.

"Because I will have Shay, and if you kill me, you know that would break her little heart. Either way, I win." I explain. Everything went in my favor. this night couldn't be more perfect. I see him pull out his phone and dial a number, it never rings. Perfect, no service.

After some time, Shay never comes out.

"What the hell is that bitch doing!" I yell. Ashton looks at me with anger and hatred in his eyes.

"I'll go get her," Ashton slams the door behind him shanking the porch. it's about damn time he got away from me.

Ashton

I can't believe this is happening. Shays going back to him, after all he's done. After all I've done to help her. He followed us to the middle of no where, and almost killed me, and now she's running back to him? Why was she thinking? I was so close to fixing her and all that hard work will go to nothing. I know what will happen. He'll treat her good for a few days and then go back to being the asshole that he is, and make her depression even worse.

I search the bedroom for her but see no signs of her. I check the bathroom as well and find nothing.

"Shay?" I call out. "Come on, please don't do this" my legs ache, and my chest feels heavy. Tears start to form in my eyes, but I blink them away. I had to be strong.

I search the entire cabin, and find no signs of Shay. I check in the sunroom. the door was wide open.

"Shay?" I whisper for what feels like the thousandth time.

I enter the sunroom. The small tables were covered in dead plants, along with the floor. I check the back door and it was open too. Did she sneak out? I go back into the kitchen and begin to panic. What do I do? Cameron's tried to already kill me once. I bury my head in my hands, and my arms on the counter. Under a little notebook I find a piece of paper that had neat cursive hand writing in it.

Dear Ashton,

I hope you find this in time. I went out the back door. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. I knew you saw Cameron. I saw him standing outside the truck before I had went outside at the rest stop. I'll be heading to a park you said you always had picnics at with your grandpa. Meet me there
