"Where the fuck are they." Chad panicked running his hands through his hair.

I knew there was something off when they left with Carter. And its not even the good carter either. In the friend group theres Carter Reynolds, sweet Carter, a little crazy, but bearable, then theres Carter Howe. The one we ran into at Disney. He's bad, he stole Carter Reynolds look, the all black clothes were Reynolds for a while until Howe had to take it.

Back in North Carolina, i didn't talk to either of the Carters much, both came over so infrequently i didn't know which was which. Together they were like the 'Jack and Jack' of Mooresville.

Carter Reynolds was there when Matt asked me to prom, Carter Howe was at the party. This is all so confusing. Thats why i didn't recognize him at Disney, and he didn't recognize me!!!!!!

God I'm so stupid! Why didn't i see this coming! This whole situation is such a mess, why couldnt Carter of been names something else! Or even better, not their friend at alll.

"Matt!!" i yelled and ran into the bathroom.

"Well hello.." he awkwardly said zipping up his pants.

"That was Carter fucking Howe." i said, standing in the door way.

"I know..and- holy shit, Erin. we need to find them." Matt gasped, washing his hands.

"I know!"

We both ran into the living room, then right past Chad, Aaron and Hayes. Together we ran into the hallway.

"Where are you going?! Our plane leaves in and HOUR!" Chad yelled at us. We ignored him and ran down the stairwell, and through the lobby.

"Do you even know where we're going?" I asked already out of breath.

"No, but i know what we'll find when we see them." Matt slowed down. I shut my eyes at the images of them flashing through my eyes.

This will be the fifth time this has happened. Unconscious, at a strangers house, full of alcohol, extacy, and other drugs. The extacy is what gets Nash. First time even leading to the hospital.

I pulled out my phone. Nash tweeted at 4:37 am.

@nashgrier: hella mother fucking turnt my nigga. @taylorcaniff @carterhowe @camerondallas

"They're with Cam." The words fell out of my mouth.

"Great!" Matt exasperated. "Were locations on?" he asked as we jogged down the road, still having no idea where we were heading. It was barely the crack of dawn, little sun light fell over the streets.

"Yes!!" i said in excitement and clicked on the location.

It was only a few blocks away from us. We could make it.

✖️NASHS POV✖️

"Fuck man." I layed down on the couch. My head hurt like a mother fucker. Yet i still chugged down my last beer. The music had died down a litte with in the past hour.

"So, is Reynolds still a little pussy?" Carter asked sitting on the in front of my with Taylor.

"Nah, he's not too bad, nights aren't as fun with him though." i shrugged.

The front door swug open, we all looked over, 2 figures were standing in the door way.

"Hamilton. Nash. Grier." fuck.

Erin stomped over to me. Her hand collided with my face.

A wave of 'oooooh's filled the room.

Matt pulled Erin back by her arm before she could jump on me. I focused my eyes on her face.

She was crying, more than crying, she was heavily sobbing into Matts chest now. fuck.

"Nash, we kinda need to go." Matt sighed, holding Erin in his arms. "Come on Taylor." Matt sounded exhausted. Taylor stood up, fell, and caught him self on Matts arm.

"Whooaa." he laughed. "come on Nashy!" Taylor was still drunk as hell.

I couldn't imagine what was going through Erin's mind right now. First having to search through LA, then finding your brother dunk as hell on s couch. in all honesty i was shocked i was still awake.

I gave in and swung my legs over the edge of the couch. My head spun. I stood up and gripped onto the side of the couch for support.

"I cant look at him." i heard Erin whisper to Matt.

....

"Why'd you do it man?" Matt asked as we walked up the streets of LA. Erin and Taylor walked a few feet ahead of us. We've had to stop twice so he could puke.

"I dont have an excuse." i admitted to Matthew. He nodded.

"You know, this is the 5th time shes had to see you like this."

Its true, 4 times before shes had to come out really early in the morning, or really late and night, pick me up from s strangers house, and walk me home. I'd be piss drunk and on all sorts of drugs.

Shes just an innocent little child sometimes.

We walked in a silence back to the hotel.

☼MATTS POV☼

"Where the fuck were you?!" Chad yelled as Nash and Taylor walked in the door. I grabbed Erin by the wrist and pulled her into my arms. We stood in the hallway with Aaron and Hayes, while Chad yelled at Nash and Taylor.

"I just wanna go home." Erin sighed into my arms.

Shes been through a lot today.

☽ERINS POV☾

"Honeyy! aawwe i've missed you guys so mucchh!!" My mom said, arms wide open, as we stepped into the airport.

Some how we managed to make it to the plane just barely on time. We all slept through most of the plane ride.

I dropped Matts hand and ran right passed my mom, and jumped into Christins arms.

"IVE MISSED YOU SO MUCH BITCH!!" I yelled, earning a few uncalled for stares from people walking around the airport.

"I MISSED YOU TOOO!" She yelled back.
