When I woke up the next morning, I was alone.

It was only 9, but I guessed that Taylor headed to the airport early.

"Hey T," Cameron smiled as I sat down at the table where everyone was eating breakfast.

"Hiya," I smiled back, taking a sip of orange juice.

"Are you excited for San Francisco?" Jack G asked.

"So excited." I replied.

I couldn't wait to see everything in San Francisco; the bridges, the stores, Union Square.. Everything.

"It's going to be great." Nash said, making it almost seem like he could read my mind.

"I gotta head to the airport, bye guys!" Shawn said, standing up and giving us each a hug before leaving the room.

"Jack and I can't go to San Francisco because we have winter formal," Jack J sighed.

"I completely forgot.." Jack G said, sighing afterwards as well.

Now that I was officially with Taylor, I missed him more than I did when he left DC.

It was silly of me to forgive what he did. I had faith that he could change how he acts. It was a gut feeling and I always trust my intuition.

Taylor could change.

"SURPRISE!"

I looked around to see all of my friends, balloons, and streamers everywhere.

"It's not my birthday!" I laughed as I set my suitcase down, pulling my friend Kelly in for a hug.

"We know but we're allowed to miss you right?" Lacy said, hugging me.

"True, I missed you guys too."

"So how about we go to Collin's party?" Kelly grinned, wiggling her eyebrows.

"Kel I don't do parties.." I groaned as she pulled me upstairs.

"You need a boyfriend!" Kelly complained.

"I have one."

Her and Lacy's mouth's dropped as I said the words.

"Is it Cameron? Oh my god tell me it's Cameron!" Lacy squealed, grabbing my hands.

"It's Taylor.." I smiled, their reactions making me excited.

"Oh my gosh did you guys do anything yet?!" Kelly interrogate.

"No you guys know me.." I didn't like this topic with them.

"Tati you have to do it sooner or later or no guy will want you! Guys want experienced girls!" Kelly groaned.

Just because you lost it at 15 doesn't mean I have to do it when I'm 17.

"Maybe we will."

Kelly and Lacy giggled and jumped around. "When?!"

"When I'm ready?"

They both sighed loudly.

"Let's go to this party!" Lacy shouted.

The smell of weed and alcohol filled the room that I walked into.

"Can I go home?" I asked Kelly as we weaved through the crowds.

"No, come on!"

She pulled me through the people and back to the backyard.

I said a prayer for myself before we stepped outside.

Nash's Point of View

"Are you serious?" Cameron asked.

"Very.." I responded.

I wasn't too proud because I knew it would make trouble. I trust Cameron, though.

"Now she's dating Taylor so what are you going to do?"
I shrugged.
"Catch her when he doesn't."

"You really think he'll mess up?" Cam asked as we walked into the airport.

"I know he will." I said confidently.

"Good luck messing up the bro code." Cam laughed, walking straight to his gate. I sat down and waited for the flight to Charlotte to be called. I knew Taylor would mess it up for him and Tatiana, and I'd be there for her like I was before.

But before you didn't have feelings for her you idiot.

"Flight 216 to Charlotte!"

Tatiana's Point of View

I ran inside, Kelly's car making a screech as it sped off.

"Where were you?" My mom smiles at me as I walk into the kitchen. I know it's not typical for you to come home at 11 from a party with your mom glad to see you, but my mom trusts me.

"Kelly and Lacy took me out of the house," I responded as I pressed my cup against the ice dispenser and then on the water dispenser beside it.

"You smell like drugs, do I need to test you?" She asked in a serious tone.

"Please do." I smirked, sipping my water.

"That's my girl." She patted my shoulder. "I have some news for you."

"Are you pregnant?" I asked, setting my cup down.

"No, we're moving!"

"Houses?"

"Omaha."

"Nebraska?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"They have nice houses less than the price we pay for this one there. I know you don't want to go to Seattle again." She responded sympathetically.

"When are we moving?" I asked. I didn't really mind that much that we were moving. I could see Kelly and Lacy when I visited my dad in Seattle; even though I hate Seattle.

"Within the next month, now I have to get some sleep. Thank you for not throwing that cliche teenager fit." She said before going upstairs.

@tatianaduro: I'm moving to Omaha lol anyone live there?

I checked replies immediately to see people respond "Jack and Jack"

@jackgilinsky: @tatianaduro me lol

Maybe this would be better than Vancouver, even if I've grown up here and in the area. Change is good, and my new friends live around me? Even better.
