Trouble // Nick Mara AU

Twenty- seven

I did this on my phone so don't judge me. Also I changed the prologue a little bit.

Nick's POV

" Nick ! Bro get up . You need to go after Jo. " I shot up from my bed as he shook my shoulders. I stretched up and all the bones in my back cracked.

" What the hell are you chatting 'bout ? " I yawned loudly and stood up from the hospital chair.

" Jo , she left ! She said she's leaving again. " I was no longer exhausted , my eyes flew open , next thing I know I was throwing on my jacket. " She said she left you a letter. That so make sure she got the message to you . "

I stopped all my movements after that.

" Me ? Why ? "

" I don't know. She just left but go straight to her apartment. " I nodded and zoomed out of the hospital. I had so many decisions in my mind. I'm hoping I would go through with one of them.

As I was in my I was thinking about her safety. It was too early for her to be out the hospital. She could pass out or something.

My car raced through the streets and people shouted at me for going too fast or swerving. I wasn't the only person doing it though so who cares.

I was at her apartment quicker than ever. I parked my car in the lot and ran to the lobby. People looked at me as if I was crazy. They never saw crazy before. I pressed the elevator button like crazy .

" Come on you son of - thank god. Sorry . " The girl with the blue eyes and paled skin and nice clothes didn't seem phased. She just looked else where. I pushed the floor number but I couldn't stop staring at the girl. She look familiar.

" Got a staring problem? " She spoke up without looking at me.

" You look like somebody I know. I just don- Shit this is my floor. " I didn't bother to say goodbye. The girl was now staring at me , even when the doors shut. I shook off the mysterious girl and sprinted towards the apartment.

" Jo ! Open up ! " I banged on the steel door multiple times. No answer. " JO OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR !!! YOU ARE NOT LEAVING ZION OR ANY OF US. " I groaned in frustration because I was up to here with this bull.

" JO I WILL KICK DOWN THIS D-"

" My door didn't do anything to you. " so she was just gonna not open the door ?

" Open the door Jo. " I heard a giggle but I could tell it wasn't a cheery , happy one.

" I'm behind you Nicholas. " I spin around to the girl , she was in somebody else's clothes. Her hair was wild and she was weak.

" Why are you leaving ? " I questioned. I leaned against the door , she let out a huge sigh.

" I ... "

" You're leaving Zion you know ? "

"Im sure he will under- " I shook my head at her. Zion would not forgive me for letting her go. He will be more mad at me than he will be mad at her.

" No he won't. You're selfish as fuck ! He's your best friend for fuck's sake. " I was now up straight with my hands at my sides. " learn to think about other's before your fucking self ! " I snapped.

" You don't know me ! I've been through so much shit with my stupid ass family that I'm done ! I'm fucking done. My father ? Is not even my real father. My mother is a adulterer , my brother's are fucking lying to me , I-I can't do this. I need to leave Nick. " She screamed out , I was speechless. How come my father never told me this ? Did he even know ?

" Jo I- "

" Nick please. I'm leaving , I don't even care if you don't want me to. I'm leaving. " She made her decision. She pushed past me and just opened up the apartment with a twist of the knob. What ?

I walked behind her into the apartment. I had to say this now or she will go.

" Let me go with you. " I blurted out. She turned around so quick I was taken back. " We can go together. " There was no going back.

" Why ? You barely know me. " She crossed her arms over her chest. I didn't know how to answer that.

" My father uh , he's looking for me. I need to get out of LA. "I half lie , I did need to get out of here. I could tell she was thinking about it. " Please Jo."

" I'm not gonna stop you. I don't even know where I'm going. " She shrugged and continued to her bedroom. I followed , of course. She went straight to packing her stuff and all I could do it sit and watch her.

" Um Austin told me you had a letter for me. "

+

The letter , I forgot about that.

" I didn't write it but I guess I can tell you in person. " I say next to him on the bed. He had no clue what I was going to say. " Do you know a Hunter Diaz ? " I asked him. His eyes went wide.

" My mom's friend. How do you know him ? "

" He's my uncle , well no I just found out he's my real dad. He came to the hospital and told me this story. I was young , he used to bring me to LA and let me play with a boy. I remembered that boy. He was short with spiked hair , he loved to dance but he used to dress like the old dancers. Baggy clothes , sweater hats. He was my best friend. He never teased me and he protected me. This one day I found his mom on the floor of the bathroom. She had blood all over her , she had already passed but I couldn't let her go. Do you wanna know who took her off of me ? You "

" Me . " we said at the same time. My eyes were watery , I blinked to let the tears fall.

" I never knew that. I thought that girl was apart of my imagination. I tried to black all of that out of my mind but that girl. I couldn't . " He shook his head. I grabbed his cheeks as I cupped them.

" I'm real. " I told him.

" You're real. "
