~Amber's POV~

"What about Jake? I can't just leave him. He's my brother and I love him. Even if he didn't help me when I got beaten." I said looking down at my feet. A tear brimmed in my eye.

"Don't cry." He held me close to him. I can't believe this is happening. Right now. Why! It's not fair what did I do wrong.

"Shhh it's ok Amber." Peter held me even closer to him then I realized I was crying. I cried into his chest as he held me and rocked back and forth. I sniffled and sat up.

"I'm sorry. I-I j-just-" I was stopped from Peter's lips on mine. I kissed back quicker then I expected I would. I wrapped my arms around his neck. He deepened the kiss. I smiled into the kiss. I pulled away and looked at him panting.

"I'm sorry I just couldn't wait any longer to kiss you." Peter said smirking. I couldn't help but smile a little. I released him and stood up. He did the same.

"You look tired. Are you tired?" He asked as we began to walk. I shook my head.

"I'm hungry though." I pointed out I looked down at his hand it was holding a plate with a grilled cheese on it. I widened my eyes.

"Here." He handed the plate to me. I smiled and ripped off a piece and popped it in my mouth. It was probably the best grilled cheese I have ever had. I ripped another piece off and put it in Peter's mouth. He laughed and chewed the food.

When we got to camp the boys were still gathered together and laughing. I wonder what they are talking about. Probably something stupid. I miss Nate more than anyone could imagine. He was like a brother to me and I loved him just as much as I love Jake.

"You should get some sleep." Peter said as we entered his tent. I groaned and walked over to his bed. He laughed and walked to the side I was on. I slipped under the covers and looked up at Peter. He leaned down and kissed my forehead before walking out.

I wasn't tired so I decided to see what Peter was up too. I peeked my head out of the tent and saw Peter and Felix talking.

~Peter's POV~

"Felix how could you!" I shouted in his face. He backed up and looked at me confused.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Felix replied like he knew nothing. I didn't buy it.

"Really. So you don't remember telling Nate to run towards me so that I would kill him." I answered getting in his face again.

"Oh yea um about that." Felix said rubbing the back of is neck. I punched him in the face. I threw him in a cage and tied a cloth around his head and put it in his moth so he couldn't yell. I pushed the cage in Felix's tent. When I walked out I saw Amber's head sticking out of my tent. She saw me and went back inside.

I ran towards the tent. When I got there I saw Amber in my bed with her eyes shut. I could tell she was pretending to sleep. I walked over to her and sat on the bed.

"I know your awake." I said rubbing her leg. She opened one of her eyes and then the other. "Why weren't you sleeping?"

"I don't know why did you punch Felix and throw him in a cage?" She said in a sassy voice.

"Because he told Nate to run towards me so that I would get mad and try to kill him." I stated raising my voice. "Sorry I didn't mean to get angry." I said calming myself down.

"It's fine but what do you mean he told Nate to run towards you?" I questioned raising an eyebrow. I sighed.

"He never liked Nate he kind of bullied him." I said looking at my feet. She widened her eyes and then sighed.

"So if he didn't tell Nate to do that Nate would still be alive." She began to cry. She covered her face with her hands.

"It's ok Amber." I said as I put a lock of her hair behind her ear. "I'll take care of him." I whispered before leaving the tent. I walked over to Felix's tent. I entered and I unlocked his cage. He crawled out and stood up and backed up away from me.

"Please! Please don't kill me!" He pleaded as he dropped to his knees.

"Save it. It's to late for you." I replied glaring at him.
