Chasing Cambridge

Recovery For The Grier Family

Cambridge's P.O.V.
                After relaying my horror filled day to the fam things seemed to calm down. Everything was fine for a while. They arrested Kostia she deserved and I will testify but the evidence they have against her is pretty damning. Nash got a warning but they let him off. Apparently he through her out of her chair, punched her, and pinned her down in the hallway. Shawn hasn't left my side since he found out. Hayes hardly leaves us alone and he watches Shawn with warning eyes. My stitches popped the day I was supposed to leave the hospital which meant three more freaking days in the awful hospital bed. But I am finally home and I couldn't tell you happy that makes me feel. I do however have a sneaking suspicion my dear little bro has it in his mind Shawn is to blame. I've got to speak to him about that.

               "Hey babe do you think you could give Hayes and I a few minutes to speak alone? He's my little brother and I need to see how he's feeling." He hesitates but I give him a pleading look.

       He sighs but then he says, "fine. I'll go get him. I'll go down to the store. Do you want a shake I know your throat is still soar from the breathing tube?" He pauses then gets this amazing smile on his face the one I fell in love with. "I can get your favorite banana caramel crunch!" I smile and nod. "I love you!!" He says and when I look in his eyes I know he means it.

               "I love you more," I whisper back.

Hayes's P.O.V.
              I have been summoned to my big sisters room and to be honest I'm scared shitless. She never summons me I hope she's not mad at me for something. I love her so much and the thought of having done something to her that has hurt her especially in her current state. I wonder if she can feel the anger and resentment I hold for Shawn. If it wasn't for him she would not have been in the car on her driving out of sadness she had to pull over because she was crying and couldn't see. This is partially his fault and she forgave him like he did nothing wrong. Well I haven't. He's gonna have to earn my trust back. I remember telling Briar she didn't think I should trust him either. I love my girl but I can't tell if she was only agreeing because she could tell upset I was. She's amazing and loving and damn I love that girl. But with my Gil aside. I have to go face my battles with my darling big sis.

Shawn's P.O.V.
             This is all my fault. I shouldn't have taken Camilla's threat as serious but when I thought she would hurt Cam in any way I did what she wanted I fed into her lies. Then I find out Cam forgave the both of us. I don't deserve Cam and I know Hayes believes it because he glares at me every time we see each other. I know he blames me. But what he doesn't know is that I don't know if I'll ever be able to forgive myself for what happened. Nash is a little in easy around me. Well most of the guys are. I remember when I saw Kenzi, Remy, and Ashley when I got to the hospital they looked so sad and so unhappy with me.

I run into Blaykley on my way out. There's another best friend who's all kinds of pissed off. I think her anger is more from the Camilla affair than Cam's hospital stay. "Hey I'm on my to get her ice cream you want anything?" She just stares callously at me and keeps walking. I'll take that as a no. I keep walking. She's always been on the weird side with me Johnson's girl. It's funny half of the girls my boys love were all introduced to them by my love. She grew up with them, loves them all, and they all love her. To be honest it damn impossible to not love her. I have no idea how Kostia could ever hate her especially enough to hurt her the way she did. My biggest question why did she forgive me??

Nash's P.O.V.
                    I'm sitting here in the lounge with my little sisters Mack and Sky. The second mom and dad found out they flipped and flew in. Mom brought Skylynn. Sky had been laying with Cambridge since she got in but mom made her leave when Shawn said Hayes was being summoned. Mom and I both knew what was coming. We could see the pain in Shawn's eyes and the anger in Hayes' mom wouldn't usually let any of her children fight but she knew what Cam needed and she new Hayes deserved it. According to her it was his battle to fix. Let him figure out that Cam will always tell him when she needs him. I have since dumped Kostia. She is officially sitting in jail waiting to find out if she's going to trial. Our lawyer has told us she's. It getting a plea deal due to the heinous nature of her crime, the length of charges, and the fact that the evidence against her is overwhelming. I want to go see my sister but mom has an eye on us from the kitchen and already told me to wait until Hayes returns.

Kenzi's P.O.V.
                Nash looks hella tense and when I say that I mean he looks like one of those coils that has been wound way too tight and is about to spring. Or a ticking time bomb. But he knows mom won't let him move. She is not scared to put his grown ass in time out. It's fucking hilarious when that happens. I'm kinda with my sister none of this was Shawn's fault. We all kind of saw how psycho Kostia was well at least the girls and I. I'm pretty sure Cam tried to ignore it for Nash but it bothered her some times. And I know she was hiding stuff from us. There was something going on that we didn't know about. I'm planning on stealing her phone to see if there is anything on it. I think I'll do it tonight. Although Sky might sleep with her again. Hmmm...

"Hey Skylynn! You think you want to sleep in my room tonight give Cam a break? I'm sure she wants some alone time." She gets this grin on her face. "Can we do mani pedis and watch movies and popcorn....?" I cut her off. "We'll do whatever as long as mom approves." She starts jumping up and down excitedly. That's when Hayes walks in blood shot eyes and sits next to me. I pull him into my arms and kiss his forehead. "I feel so bad for her. She started crying the second I walked in. She begged me not to hate Shawn. The worse part she kept blaming herself. She's scared that everyone hates her." He sobbed into my shoulder. And I just held my sobbing baby brother in my arms. I watch as Nash silently slips away likely to Bri's room. He hasn't talked to her alone since that day. And I know it's tearing them both apart.
