Aspen's POV
«»«»«»«»

We were all gathered around my lounge room. I was sitting alone in an arm chair whilst Jasper and Monica sat next to each other. Across from me sat Liv, who was alone too. Haley was standing.

I looked at Liv whose face was pale. It wasn't long ago that she burst into my house in full panic mode. I had to ask - more like write - what was wrong. She told me that they were just gone and that there was a pool of blood in their house. She's worried that their parents found them.

I was worried, too.

"So where on earth do you think they are, Liv?" Jasper asked. She lifted her head to look at him and frowned.

"I don't know, but all I do know is that they should be at their parents house." Liv replied, her voice shaky and was obviously concerned. I looked at her intertwined fingers and how her hands were shaking. I wanted to go over there and hug her. She's been with Ezra for much longer than I've been with Axel. She must be so worried about them.

"That's really helpful, Liv." Monica sarcastically whispered under he breath. I hit her thigh and gave her a sharp glare.

We haven't exactly made up yet. I'm still mad at those two people sitting on the couch.

"Have they ever taken you there?" Haley asked kindly, her light brown eyes showing pure concern and worry.

"Once, but damn, I'm so forgetful." Liv said. She looked doubtful and she face-palmed herself.

"No, no! Don't worry, it's fine." Haley said and put a hand on her back. She then whispered something in her ear and Liv's face lit up slightly. Once Haley pulled away, she smiled at Liv. "Okay?" Liv nodded as a reply.

"So there's a game of Chinese whispers going on? I thought that we were taking this seriously." Jasper said. I stood up slightly, hovering over the chair. I wanted to walk over there and to shake some sense into him but that would distract us from the real problem here. I sat back down but my hands were still curled up into fists.

"We are, Jasper. Goodness, would you ever stop being such an asshole for once?" Haley shot him a glare and rubbed Liv's back in a comforting way. "Can't you see that she's about to have a panic attack and you think that we aren't taking any of this seriously?"

"Fine, then what's the plan?" Monica asked seriously. Her face showed no expression and her hands were crossed in a serious manner. "Have you guys even thought about this?"

Liv stood up so quickly that Haley stumbled back. Hair spilled over her face, making her almost impossible to read. Her fists were turning white and she said, "I'll be right back." And she stormed away.

I stood up to see where she was going. She hasn't been anywhere in my house apart from the kitchen and lounge room. But Haley pushed me back into the chair. "No, give her some time. I think she needs it." Then she shot Jasper and Monica a mean glare. "What's wrong with you two?"

"I really don't understand why you called us, Mouse. Actually, I don't even know what to call you, anymore." Jasper stood up and prepared to leave. Monica did the same and gathered up her things.
