Chapter 12

Heather's POV

I woke up between Cameron and Nash. I could feel cam rubbing my back gently so I figured he was awake. I turned towards him and smiled.

"Good morning beautiful," he smiled back.

"Good morning," I said. We both got up and got dressed before getting some breakfast. I wasn't sure what to do because I was pretty sure Nash liked me, and maybe I kinda liked him too. Cameron was hotter than him but Nash was so sweet and those eyes! I felt myself staring off into space. Cameron was just staring at me.

"You okay?" He asked.

"Yeah I'm fine" I sighed.

"How's your leg?"

"Better, thanks again," I smiled at him.

"Anytime," he smiled proudly. Nash got outta bed and stumbled over.

"You guys didn't wake me?" He questioned.

"We figured we would let you sleep," I told him.

"We'll what's on the agenda for today?" He asked. I shrugged. We didn't really need anything else so I figured we could just chill out. Before anyone else could talk we heard a loud bang.

"What was that?!" I whispered. We grabbed our weapons and made our way to the source of the noise. We rounded a corner and we were shocked. Three people stood in front of us.

Two girls and one guy. The older girl was tall, had long blonde hair (obviously fake) and her shirt was a bit too revealing. Id say she was about 19 years old. The second girl looked to be about 5 or 6, she had curly black hair and rosy cheeks. The boy, her brother I assumed, was maybe 15 but was very tall. He had the same features as the little girl.

"How did you get in?" Nash asked them.

"We opened up one of the blocked doors," the blonde one said.

"And did you close it back up?" I questioned her in a nasty tone. She just looked like someone I'd hate.

"Well duh," she snapped back. I glared at her.

"Put the claws away, ladies," Cameron chuckled. "We are staying here but you're more than welcome to join us." I scoffed at him.

"Thanks so much," the boy smiled. "I'm Jackson, this is my sister Anna, and her name is Karyn. We found her wandering around"

"Probably looking for a street corner to work," I mumbled under my breath. Nash must have heard it because he burst out laughing. She was giving me dirty looks so I returned them. They had to stay in a different store because there wasn't room in ours. Cameron seemed to be paying a lot of attention to Karyn which upset me. Anna was so cute, I felt bad that she was stuck in this situation. Everyone was talking but ignoring me. Karyn took my seat next to cam when I got up for a drink so I went up to the roof. I had found a razor when I was exploring. I took it from my pocket and just held it in my hand. It started to rain so I just sat there. I pulled my pants so they exposed my thighs and began running the sharp blade across. The rain made the blood run quicker. I saw a repeating pattern, I got close to someone and I'm not good enough, someone better always comes along. I heard someone coming so I pulled up my pants and ran over to look over the edge at those things pretending nothing happened. The rain stopped hitting me and I saw Nash holding an umbrella.

"You ok?" He asked.

"Yeah" I lied.

"Are you sure? You seemed pretty upset with the new people," he sighed.

"It's just..." I felt tears form in my eyes.

"Heather, why is there red around your feet?" He asked looking down. I was still bleeding and the rain was making it run down my leg.

"That's...I don't know, weird." I said with a shaky voice.

"You didn't?! Please say you didn't! Don't lie I will rip your pants off right now and look," he yelled.

"Um you have to buy me dinner first," I laughed trying to lighten his mood.

"Don't even joke about this," he said with pain in his voice. I let the tears roll down my face. "Why?"

"Because I'm being replaced. The razor is the only thing that's always there for me." I cried into his chest.

"Who's replacing you?" He asked confused.

"Jackson and Anna are gonna take my place with you...and Cameron is with Karyn now." I said and as I did my heart broke. I guess I just had to hear it out loud. He probably never really liked me. He was just making an exception because we were stuck there.

"So you like Cameron?" Nash asked kinda hurt.

"Yeah....he kissed me the other day. But it doesn't even matter cuz now that blonde bimbo came along." I sighed. Nash looked really hurt.

"I like you, a lot. I always have. I think you're the most amazing girl I've ever met and ever will meet. I'll treat you right. And you won't have to hurt yourself ever again because I will always be there for you" he told me looking into my eyes. I wanted to kiss him so bad but he was too tall for me.

"Sit down for a sec," I said. He looked confused but complied. I leaned over and kissed him. He kissed back immediately. I broke away and smiled. "Let's go back inside before we get sick.

"So does this mean we are..together?" He asked blushing.

"Yeah" I smiled. He took my hand and we went back in. I cleaned my cuts and changed pants. Nash and I went back in to the group and Karyn was practically on Cameron's lap. Anna came over and sat on my lap. I winced when she adjusted herself and hurt my wounds but I didn't move her. She was so cute. Nash kept smiling at me and it was adorable. Maybe he was the better choice all along. Now all I have to do is tell Cameron.
