"Nash!"
"Savannah!"
I jumped into his arms as he carried me, spinning me around.
"Gosh, I missed you so much!," he said as he put me down.
"I know and I'm sorry I left like that, I shouldn't have did that!"
"Yeah, it's ok and besides, I'm glad you're okay."
I embraced him into another hug, after realizing that he was in tears.
"I was so scared, Savannah. Honestly, Cameron told me about everything and I was scared for you. Did he hurt you that bad that night?"
"Yeah but I'm fine. I just missed you guys. Talking about you guys, where is everyone?"
Nash rubbed the nape of his neck and sighed.
"They went to pick up Aaron's girlfriend, Allison. She's hanging out with us now so that's awesome."
"Cool, I missed all of you guys but," -I took in a huge breath -"I really wanted to see Cameron. I missed him, a lot actually."
Nash placed his hand on my back and smiled. "He missed you too. Before he went to bed every night, he would listen to all your covers on replay.
"It was sad, watching him break down for no reason sometimes. But he never showed he was destroyed when we went to meet our fans. It scared me."
Heat rushed to my cheeks and I felt my throat became dry. "Really? He actually missed me?"
Nash nodded his head, running his fingers through his hair. "No joke, he wants you back. But when Brandon kissed you, he walked out of the room and tried to call you. Something had happened because he came back in tears."
"Oh, well nothing happened," I said as I rubbed my arms back and forth.
"You hurt yourself, Savannah. Don't lie to me."
My jaw clenched as I felt hands make fists to feel my palms had moistened.
Blood rushed in my ears and my pulse skyrocketed, feeling my face become hot.
I feel my eyes slowly slide away from his as he reached for my hand.
"Sav, it's okay. Just look at me."
I turned around and saw Nash blinking away tears
"I'm just scared for you, Savannah. You stopped cutting while you were with Cameron but now," -he paused and took a deep breath- "We're back to square one."
I wrapped my arms around Nash's neck, crying into his shirt.
He stroked my hair and we stood there, at the front of my house; crying.
I didn't know if they were happy or sad tears but we were both glad we had each other.

"Savannah, the gang's coming around 30 minutes," Nash said from the couch.
He was here for almost an hour, keeping me company.
"They said they're sorry for not coming here first."
"It's fine," I said, resting my head on his shoulder. "But I'm really tired."
I yawned and got off the couch, walking upstairs.
"Woah, where are you going?"
"Bed, good night. Make sure you lock the door when you leave."
"Uh-okay, good night."
I walked inside my room and flopped onto the bed.
Reaching for the blanket, I closed my eyes against the dim light of dawn, my breathing deep and relaxed.
All the muscles in my face and body were totally at peace and I went to sleep, thinking about Cameron.
--Nash's POV
Savannah was upstairs, already asleep in her room.
I felt my phone vibrate and realized it was Cameron.
I answered the call, putting the phone to my ear.
"Hey."
"Dude, we're here. Open up."
"Ok, ok! Just wait."
I ended the call as I walked towards the door.
A wave of excitement entered my body as I reached for the doorknob.
I swung the door and met with Cameron's face.
"Hey, dude. Where's Savannah?"
"Upstairs, she's sleeping."
"What? But we all came to say hi to her?"
Anna, Taylor, Carter, Paige, and Allison were standing behind Cameron with annoyed looks on their faces.
"You can come in and hang out but you'll have to wait until she wakes up. She was really tired."
"Oh," Cameron said in an upset tone. "I guess I'll stay."
"Same here," the others said in unison.
"Sure, come in."
They walked inside and sat on the couch.
"Nash, how was Savannah when you visited her?"
"She was fine, I guess," I answered, rubbing the nape of my neck. "She was glad to see me, she just missed you."
Cameron got off the couch, his hands covering his face.
"I messed up big time. I didn't know what I was thinking about that night."
"Cam, it's okay," Paige reassured.
"She still loves you no matter what," Anna added
"I hope so." Cameron walked away from us and ran upstairs.
"What is he doing?," Carter asked.
"Probably going to check on Savannah," Taylor answered.

Cameron's POV
I walked inside Savannah's room and found her sound asleep on her bed.
The innocence showed on her sleeping face, the peaceful and serene dreams blocking out the dangers of the outside.
Her hands were placed underneath her head, her chest rising and falling with each breath she took.
Carefully, I slid into the bed besides her and wrapped my arms around her
I nuzzled my head near her chest, hearing her heartbeat in sync with mine.
"I love you, Savannah. Don't forget that."
My fingers ran against her scarred cheeks, reminding me of what I had done to her.
Suddenly, her eyes opened as she jolted up.
"Cameron?"
"Savannah, I'm sorry I barged in like this. I didn't mean-"
She clenched her fists in my shirt, pulling me closer than ever before.
And then she kissed me. It was magic, the way her lips connected with mine.
It was right, and somehow, among all of the dizziness and the clinging to her like a lifeline, something inside me changed, never to be reversed.
We pulled apart and she embraced me in a hug.
"I missed you," she whispered into my ear.
"I missed you more," I told her while pulling apart.
"A lot, actually."
