Chapter 6

Gabriella's POV

I wake up to hear one of the boys yelling. "ALRIGHT WHICH ONE OF YOU FUCKERS STOLE MY RAZOR." Must be Calum, then.

"LISTEN WE DONT KNOW MAYBE YOU LIKE LOST IT OR SOMETHING." Another boy yells out.

"Yea just grab another one it's not a big deal," Ashton says, I knew it was his because I recognized his voice.

"Okay,okay. I'm sorry I snapped at y'all. I'm just so tired." Calum responds.

I sit up in bed, just as I hear my door open. I went ridged, then relaxed slightly as I saw who it was. Ashton. He walks in the room, closing the door behind him. "C-can I talk to you for a sec?" He asks me.

"Yea, sure," I say confused, pulling on my sweaters cuff.

He takes a seat on my bed, facing me. "Did you take Calum's razor?" He asks my quickly. A worried look in his eyes.

What! How did he know. Stay calm Gabriella. He doesn't know. He just suspects. "No. Why?" I respond.

He looks up at me, and a sad expression on his face grows. "I-I know we need to learn to trust each other, but I need to know if you're safe. Can I see your arms?" He asks, pointing to my long sleeves.

I wanted to laugh. He'd check my arms, see that there was nothing, then be on his way.

"Sure," I reply, pulling up my sleeves to show him my skin. "See? Nothing."

Ashton smiles in relief. "Thanks Gabby.." Suddenly his voice trails off as he looks at my fingers. And the paper cuts on them from when I tried to get the razor out. "What's this?" He asks, taking my hands to get a closer look. He looks up at me worry on his face.

"Uh.." I start. "Those are just paper cuts." I lie. Well they looked like paper cuts, so it isn't a complete lie.

"Gabby," he responds. "Don't lie to me, please. How did you get those so called 'paper cuts'?"

"I don't know, maybe the price tags on the clothes we bought today did it?" I say, starting to panic. He can't find out. He would surly give me back to the orphanage.

"Gabby... we both know that's not true." He says.

Ashton's POV

"We both know that's not true" I say to Gabby. She must have taken the razor. But why lie about it? And if she did cut, where? Suddenly I remember back to while we were shopping. She would only want long pants, long shorts. High waisted.

"Gabby," I start, trying to keep my composure. "Let me see your hips and thighs."

Gabby POV

"What the hell! No! You perv!" I say, hoping to make him awkward enough from the situation to drop it. But sadly, reacting the way I did, must have confirmed in his eyes that he knew.

Well shit.
