"Nicole"

"Princess, wakeup"

"Please?"Ryce pleads.

"Fine." I say and roll out of the comfy bed.

"Would you like to eat at Josh and Taylors house?" He asks. I nod in response. "Oh and last night I had some people retrieve the clothes from your car." He says and hands me my two duffel bags.

"Im going to take a shower." I say and take my duffel bags to the bathroom.

"Okay."

I walk into the brown tiled bathroom and turn the shower dial to warm.

I sigh as I realize I don't have my soap.

I take his Old Spice shampoo and squirt some into my hand.

I lather it into my hair and decide I need new clothes. SHOPPING! After my shower, I make sure to lock the door and change into my tank top and shorts and walk out of the room.

"You can't wear that." Ryce says.

"What? This is practically my everyday outfit!"

"I don't care. Your new everyday outfit is wearing one of my tshirts. I'll let you wear whatever pants you want just wear my shirts." He says handing me a red tshirt.

"Fine." I walk back into the bathroom. "This is not fair." I mumble as I put the shirt over my tank top.

After the shirt is on, I pull the sleeve down a bit showing a small sliver of my shoulder and put my hair in a messy bun.

"Better?" I say as I walk out of the bathroom.

He looks like he's about to say something but I give him a look and he becomes quiet and just nods.

"Josh made food." He says.

"Thank goodness he can cook. Taylor would be coming to our room everyday asking for me to cook." I say and giggle.

"Well I'm glad you can cook too. I can cook but I'm a bit busy sometimes." He says as we walk down the hallway.

"So..... when can I go back home?" I ask.

"Well......." He whispers something but I can't hear it.

"What was that?"

"Nothing, oh look we're here." He says and I forget our entire conversation as Josh opens the door and I hear screaming coming from his apartment.

"Please help me." He says and my eyes widen at his tired appearance. It looked as f he hasn't shaved, he smells, his hair is a mess and he ha purple rings under his eyes.

"What happened?" I ask as I barge into the house.

"Its Taylor. She won't eat, she won't drink, nothing!" He says and tugs at his hair more.

"Ryce, help him into the shower please. I'll talk to Taylor." Ryce nods and takes Josh into i'm guessing his room.

"Taylor sweetie?" I ask and I hear sobbing from the living room. "Boo, whats wrong?" I ask her and she just puts her head on my shoulder crying.

"I just don't understand any of this and he's making me eat when I'm not hungry. I just don't understand! This doesn't make any sense and Josh said I can't see my family. I miss Ember and Colton and mum and dad, and I just keep screaming all throughout the night hoping you would come. " She says as she chokes back tears.

"Oh honey, everything is going to be okay. I won't let anyone or anything hurt you for as long as we're here."

"Okay." She says and sniffles

"Good, now wipe your tears, and turn that frown around. They make wrinkles you know." I say jokingly and she wipes her tears, smiling. "And could you at least eat a little bit, Josh was on the verge of tears because you wouldn't eat." I say and she nods.

"Wanna take a shower?" I ask her and she nods sitting up and taking my hand leading me to another room with a connected bathroom.

I turn on the water for her and she grabs her soap she took from the hotel, putting it in the shower.

After the water is the right temperature, I walk out into the other room to find her stuff is already unpacked in the closet. I grab a outfit consisting of black skinny jeans and a red hoodie.

I wander around the house and try to look for towels.

I successfully find one and walk back into the bathroom where Taylor is showering and place it next to the shower.

"Thank you" She says from inside the shower.

"Anytime boo." I say and walk out of the room.

I wander around the house and get thinking about what Taylor was saying.

Where we really not going to see our families again?

Would people miss me?

Probably not. Who cares about little Nicole?

After thinking this I couldn't help it. I need to cut. Everything just hit me really hard. I run out of they're house and up the stairs. I grab the razors I keep in my bag and start to slowly slide them over my wrist. Slow and painful. I begin to cry as the sharp metal drags again my skin. I shouldn't do this. But it feels so good. "Once broken, always broken." I whisper.

"Nicole?" I hear Josh say from down stairs and I rush into the bathroom, washing the razor. I realize I can't hear his footsteps and sigh, thinking its okay to continue.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Someone yells and I jump, turning around and seeing Josh with a worried look on his face.

"Umm oops?"

*^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

So..... What you think?

I thought it was cool.

What do you think Josh will do? Will he tell Ryce?
