No ones p.o.v
"I do"

"I do"

They smiled at each other, and kissed. When the did everyone began to cheer, then pulled apart, locked hands, & faced the crowd. They smiled at everyone and ran down the isle. They got to the end and were stopped by the brides parents. Her mom hugged her

" sweetie we're so happy for you" she almost whispered. She let go and stood next to her dad, who then wrapped his arm around her waist. He nodded in agreement.

*zooms in*

ZOE P.O.V

FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 2016

BEEP,BEEP
BEEP,BEEP
BEEP,BE-

I pressed snooze on my alarm clock and sat up, just as i did my brother dickhead walked into my room,  He jumped onto my bed. I crossed my legs and looked at him. Andy is my older my brother, hes 17. Andy has this problem of not knowing how to knock before going into a room.

"Happy birthday little sis!" he handed me a bright yellow bag

"Whats this?" I motioned to the bag

"Open the bag and find out." he said with a smirk

" No what is this as in, why did you get this you know i don't like to celebrate my birthday." i handed him the bag, he took it and put it on the floor next to the bed.

"Just because you don't like to celebrate your birthday, dose not mean that i cant buy you presents.'

I furrowed my eyebrows. " Yes it does. Buying something for someone on there birthday i called CELEBRATING A BIRTHDAY!" i shouted

" I don't understand why you don't like to celebrate your birthday." he said

" You know why" i looked to my left and out the window.

"Zoe it wasn't your fault m-"

"SHUT UP DON'T YOU DARE SPEAK OF HER! YOU BARELY KNEW HER!" I felt tears starting to fall."JUST.....GET OUT!"

"Zoe i-"

"OUT!!!"

He sighed and started to walk out the room. He was about to say something but change his mind, I lay'ed back down.I turned on my side, on my 14th birthday my mom died. She told me she had to go to Paris when 13. She was to come back in a year. her plane was bombed, by terrorist. I later found out that money from her company was being sent to them to help with the bomb. They company  blamed her so fast it would make your head spin, she was later executed for her crimes. Ever since then i have been hell bent on revenge.

BLAKE P.O.V

I pulled up to summers house and beeped the horn. Its my turn to pick everyone up. I get them in a certain order, summer, Preston, then Zoe. My phone vibrated in my pocket, it was a text from Zoe.

Zoe: Hey i am a little busy so come inside when u get here

Blake: Okay no prob i am at summers, then ill get Preston and we will all be there soon

Zoe: Okay see u soon :)

The passenger door opened revealing summer. She was wearing a pair of ripped light blue skinny jeans, a black crop top, black sneaker wedges, and a black leather jacket (that she stole my closet). Her black hair falling perfectly on her shoulders and down to her lower back. She looked amazing. Well she always does.

"Hi" she said angry

"uh hi? whats wrong you sound angry?"

"My idiot excuse for a step-dad. God he gets on my fucking nerves. I just wanna break his face sometimes"

" I totally agree with you. Me and my step-mom had a fight just this morning"

"really, about what?" she said

" How she a gold-digging bitch, my car, and my choice of clothes."

" Why was she interested  in your car and clothes?  your family know's your gay right?"

' Only my dad and...mom...knew" i took a deep breath and continued. " Besides I would never tell that hoe. so what did he do?"

" He was....just..uh...in my room when..i wasn't there"

" Your lying" i said

"n-no i am not" I pulled the car over and turned it off, then i looked at her. she lying she s showing her tells. she bites her lip, and she does not make eye contact, i can read her like a book

"yes you are. when you lie you don't make eye contact and you bite your lip. now spill"

" OK. Fine hes been getting to close for my comfort"

" What?!" i tried to say calmly. i took a deep breath, actually like 10. "How long has this been going on?"

"2 days....maybe,possible, potentially...weeks?"

i just looked at her and blinked. I turned back around, turned the car back on, and drove off. what do you even say to that 'oh sorry that you might be getting molested by your step-dad> do you do the science homework?'.  I turned on the radio, the silence is killing me. The song warriors  started to play. This is one of summers favorites and she has a lot.

"O.M.G! This is my favorite song" called it

She started to sing. It didn't bother me she could sing. she could sing anything and everything.

SUMMER P.O.V

" FUCK OFF BRIAN OR ILL BREAK ANOTHER FINGER!!!"

I slammed my bedroom door and sat on my bed he gets on my everlasting nerves. i heard the familiar beep of a horn, I  smiled, looks like my day just got better. I got up grabbed my bag and headed down the stairs. I kissed my mom on the cheek and headed out the door. i walked up to the familiar red-Benz. I opened the door and got in she tensed but calmed down when she saw it was me. She was wearing black sneakers and jeans, with a black wife beater, and a red and black button shirt that was open. Her black hair was in a ponytail. she looked nice. She smiled showing off her colorful braces.

*skip to when she was singing*

  [verse 1]

As a child, you would wait, and watch from far away

But you always knew, that you'd be the one

To work while they all play

In youth, you'd lay, awake at night and scheme

Of all the that you would change

But it was just a dream

[chorus]

Here we are,  don't turn away now

We are the warriors that built this town

Here we are, don't turn away now

We are the warriors that built this town

From dust

[verse 2]

The time, will come, when you'll have to rise

Above the best, and prove yourself

Your spirit never dies

Farewell, I've gone, to take my throne above

But don't weep for me, cause this will be

The labor of my love

[chorus]-2 x

I looked to my left and saw Blake smiling at me then turn her attention back to the rode. All did was smile and look out the window
