Colby's POV

Destiny looked at Elton with shocked eyes. By shocked I mean shocked, she didn't look happy either as she huffed. "Dude why would you do that to me?" I asked holding my chest jokingly. "For the views." Elton said as Destiny sighed "I TOLD HIM I'D STAY! AND YOU KEPT IT GOING YOU JERK!" Destiny huffed she had really bad anxiety so this probably didn't help at all. You could sort of tell and this is the moment in time where Brennen like got serious and hugged Destiny whispering to her as she nodded

Destiny had sat down for a few minutes to calm down a little. We had gotten on the plane to head back to LA and be home as Destiny slept almost the entire ride home.

Destiny's POV

I had fallen asleep on Colby's arm for about five hours. I normally don't get much sleep so it was good for me. After I had woken up I yawned and everyone was asleep and the lights were dimmed low yet, Colby was still awake cradling my body and I smiled. "How'd you sleep??" He asked as I shrugged "I have a headache. Other than that it was good." I said

Once the plane had landed I was tired and slept downstairs in Colby's house. I'm pretty sure I had gotten sick so I took some night quil so I could sleep. I laid on the couch with a blanket wrapped around me.

Sam's POV

So Destiny fell asleep on the downstairs couch. Everyone knows never to fall asleep on the couch downstairs. "Colby? Wanna prank Destiny?" I asked "Sure." He said as I laughed "She fell asleep downstairs." I said and Colby covered his mouth laughing "This won't hurt her right?" He asked "Yeah of course not." I said "We are just gonna put her in the pool." I said laughing as Colby sighed

"Sam she wasn't feeling good last night. She took some nightquil so she should be sleepy." He said and I laughed as I blew up the float and set it on the floor "Okay this should work." I said as Colby and I picked up Destiny setting her down as she slept soundly. We took her out to the pool and put her in the pool. "Dude we are literally jerks." I said laughing as Colby nodded "Yep."

Destiny's POV

I felt something continuously and woke up to Sam screaming "Wake up Destiny!" I fell out of the thing I was on, right into the water. "WHAT THE HELL?!" I exclaimed my voice raspy as I strained it. "Colby how could you?" I asked fake hurt as he smiled

"I'm sorry Dessi." He said as he handed me a towel I wrapped it around myself. "I'm gonna tell Brennen on you." I said my voice was breaking because I was sick. I was extremely tired and my body ached a little. "Guys you knew I didn't feel good.." I murmured "I have to do a overnight tonight too.." I mumbled annoyed with them "Sorry Dessi." Sam apologized as I nodded and walked into the house locking them out of the house. "You can stay out there now." I said smiling "Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna grab one of Colby's shirts because you soaked mine." I said walking up the stairs and into Colby's room for clothes.

Colby's POV

Destiny seriously locked us out of our own house. I pulled out my phone calling Aaron "Colby why are you calling me?" He asked as I sighed "Destiny locked us out." I said and he laughed "Why did she lock you out?" He asked "We pranked her." Sam said and I could hear Aaron laughing "So you deserved it." He said and I sighed "I will let you in. Give me a minute." He said and Destiny came downstairs wearing my Nirvana shirt and a pair of her shorts. I knocked on the door and she looked at me and she opened the door "There." She mumbled and I just hugged her "I'm sorry Dessi." I said and she nodded "I know." She mumbled hugging back.

Destiny's POV

I had hugged Colby back and we stood there for a bit. "I have to film a video." I said stretching "Do you have a room with good acoustics?" I asked and he thought for a second "You could try my room." He said and I nodded softly and followed him and I set up my microphone. I listened to the lyrics a few more times so I would have it down. I sat on Colby's bed with a guitar "You can not laugh when I do this." I said looking at him and he nodded as I set everything lowering the mic a little and I took a deep breath and I started the intro to the song with the guitar

"Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard, you know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone, wait for me to come home

Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know, know
I swear it will get easier,
Remember that with every piece of you
Hm, and it's the only thing we take with us when we die

Hm, we keep this love in this photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts were never broken
And time's forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone

And if you hurt me
That's okay baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home

You can fit me
Inside the necklace you got when you were sixteen
Next to your heartbeat where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul

And if you hurt me
Well, that's okay baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go

When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me
Under the lamppost back on Sixth street
Hearing you whisper through the phone,
Wait for me to come home."

Once I finished the video I smiled slightly at the camera "Okay so either you guys can watch this or leave. It's up to you at this point." I said before taking a small breath "I have always had a hard time when I liked a guy. Up until about I wanna say my freshman or sophomore year of highschool. There was this guy I liked. We both had feelings, and we dated, for about 4 and a half years.." I said laughing "Yeah, then about two years ago... I found him sleeping around." I said looking at my hands "So I broke up with him. As I had walked out from witnessing that. That was in the past though.."

"But, that made me start thinking... how long was it a lie. I have not allowed myself to get close to a guy since then. I have not let myself fall into a trap since then. Don't let boys lead you on. Don't let boys hurt you in any way." I said, "But seriously.. boys don't understand our emotions." I said "At least most of them don't." I finished off and filmed the outro

I looked at Colby "I haven't had the most luck with guys." I said looking at my hands before he grabbed them "I won't hurt you Dessi... I promise." He said as I looked into his eyes "Okay.." was all I said.
