A/n- At the beginning of the song, don't mind the beginning. Couldn't find another male version of this song so...

(Nicco's POV)

Halle, Lissy, and I stay on the cot that they were already sitting on. We sit in silence for a few minutes. Well, this is awkward.

"So, how are you two?" I ask.

"Pretty good," Halle says.

"Same. You?" Lissy says.

"Great," I reply.

And there's the awkward silence again. I absolutely hate awkward silence.

"Why are you here?" Halle asks me.

"Excuse me?" I ask.

"Yeah. Sir only takes people who are of value to him," Lissy says.

"I don't know. The two men that took Beck and I didn't say anything about that."

"You won't like it here," Lissy says.

"Why not? And who's Sir?" I ask.

"Sir's a bad man. Don't get on his bad side," Lissy said.

"Yeah, don't. He'll beat you and starve you. He's done that to me I don't know how many times. It's not fun," Halle says.

Halle looks like she's about to cry. Lissy puts her arms around her to give her comfort.

"I promise I won't let him touch either of you anymore, okay?" I promised.

They both nod.

"Can I have a hug?" I ask and open my arms out wide.

They fell into my arms and wrapped their arms around my waist.

"Now, who wants to talk about YouTube?" I ask when they pull away from me.

"What's that?" Lissy asks.

"You might want to get comfortable. This may take a while."

(Noah's POV)

"Then I was like, "How dare you not bow down to your queen?" Rebecca says and laughs.

Rebecca and I haven't been talking for more than ten minutes and I can already tell I like her. Like, really like her.

Highly doubt she would like me back, though. She has a boyfriend, anyway. At least, that's what she told me.

I'm going to admit, I'm pretty jealous of her boyfriend. Jace was his name, right? What I mean is, Jace gets this perfect girl. I don't think anyone is perfect. But Rebecca is perfection.

"Earth to Noah," I hear Rebecca say.

"Yeah?" I say. I guess I was daydreaming again.

"I asked a question," she said and laughed.

"Sorry. What was the question?"

"I asked, what's on your mind?"

"You."

Did I just say that out loud? Rebecca started blushing. Yep, I said that out loud.

"Sorry, sorry. I meant I'm thinking about how you're perfection. No, you're amazing. No! Ugh, I'll just stop talking," I rambled.

Rebecca giggles, kisses me on the cheek, and walks away to talk to Halle, Lissy, and Nicco.

My heart is beating a mile a minute.

Who knew that one girl could make me feel this way?
