*WARNING* physical abuse in this chapter. sorry guys. it helps the story along. always tell somebody immediately if this happens

the next day, i was coming back from the grocery store. your girl needed groceries really bad. i wave a goodbye to shannon. i tried to pay her. she wouldn't let me this time. oh shannon. i fumble with my keys trying to unlock my door. only to find out it's been unlocked already. a feverish panic runs through my body. when i  lightly push open my door, i see a mans body at the kitchen. my heart has officially stopped beating. i try to quietly run away, but the person quickly turns in my direction. fuck. jeremy. he's in my house! "where are you going baby girl?" he smirked evilly. "i.. i'm not your baby girl. you dumped me" i shouted, finding my ground. "your such a bitch. i gave you everything. yet you dare act bored of me?" he questions, feigning hurt. "listen to yourself dick wad. you cheated on me. obviously you were tired of me from the start" i retaliate, trying not to cry. "oh no. is little hazel gonna cwy?" he coos. jeremy is clearly still drunk. "rot. in. hell." i spit. he flared his nostrils and walked his way over to me. he grabbed my jaw, and yanked my face to his level. "listen to me. you will get back together with me. right now" he demanded. ow. this hurt. "no" i manage. then. the contact. hand to hand. my heart broke into trillions of pieces. how did i so easily love him. "get the fuck out of my house!" i scream, kicking him in the crotch. while he was in pain, i broke the key handle off of the key, in locked position. the other people noticed the commotion. they called the cops. he wouldn't get out, they would break in. i cup my hand on my cheek. it stayed there for a while. i was full on sobbing. everything hurt. my heart, my face... everything. i couldn't be here. i shuffle to a far away lot in the complex, and slump on a tree and sit there and cry. i unlock my phone, and call jack. ringing. "hey hazel" he greets happily. oh, if only i could feel the same. i break a sob. "i... i need you. like to come get me" i burst out into tears... physically shaking. "on my way. i need you to text me your address. i'm coming alone. stay safe" he instructs. "alright" i wobbled. i shakily text him the address, and walk further away from my house, and closer to the entrance to the neighborhood. i hide behind a sign, so no one else could hurt me. thirty minutes later, i see a black suv come to a slow stop. a door is thrown open, and jack runs out.  i'm soon engulfed in his arms. i am at this point in hysterics. i wish he didn't have to see me like this. he released gently, and tries to bring my face up with his thumb. i flinch when his cold thumb hits my cheek. i recoil back from him. his face softens. i know he knows it wasn't his fault, but he still was sad I backed away. he whispered into my hair. "i'm going to lay you down in the back seat, try and take a nap, alright?" all i can do is nod. he picked me up bridal style. if i wasn't having an emotional break down, i would've squealed. he lies me down on the back seat. he starts driving, and i start to calm down. eventually i decide that sleeping is the best way to temporarily forget.

jacks point of view:

waking up was difficult. i wasn't too drunk. tipsy was more like it. i didn't need pain relievers thank god. i just wanted to lay in bed all day. but that would be rude to hazel. once up, and in a t shirt and sweat pants, i go downstairs to start making breakfast. for a while, i'm the only one awake. then, all the guys start filing in. they just sit down and contemplate what happened last night, staring at the ground before deciding to become a functioning person. i was wondering how zach found hazel to begin with. "dude, zach, how exactly did you meet hazel?" i questioned. "oh right. there was this creepy old man that was trying to talk at her. you guys saw the dress she was wearing right?. he started touching her arm, you can tell she was uncomfortable, so i went over there and had kevin at the bar get the guy out of there" hearing that story made me feel something. i was so infuriated with my species of human. how hard is it to treat a girl with respect? i'lll give you an answer. its really not. all i could muster up was, "oh my god i can't believe someone would treat her like that". at this point, everybody but hazel and christina were awake. i don't understand. what is it with girls i know and sleeping late? even back in pennsylvania my siblings and mother slept in a lot. the guys individually started helping me cook everything. jonah started to lay down the bacon on a tray, corbyn was making eggs and slicing strawberries. what a multitasker i know. daniel burnt the toast, which sucked. zach was making the coffee for everyone because we can't trust him with stoves just yet. poor lil guy. don't tell him i called him that. he might step on my shoes. it wouldn't hurt though. anyways, essentially it was all hands on deck. i was halfway into my pancake making craze when i heard footsteps pad against the floor. hazel entered. wow. she was gorgeous. even in pajamas. her dark brown hair was all frazzled from tossing and turning, she squinted from the bright los angeles sun shining into the house. " oh hazel you're up. corbyn just finished the eggs. hope you like scrambled. daniel kinda burned the toast, just a heads up" "shut up zach" she started rubbing her temples and i remembered we laid out pain killers and water for anybody that needed them. i flip over a pancake. "there's some painkillers and water on the counter" i stated. "thank god" she mumbled. jonah kept looking at her too. i saw the way she pulled jonah out of the tent last night. i got pretty jealous. but it didn't matter. it's her decision. "is this your first hang over?" zach asked her. "god no" she laughed. huh. cute girl and she likes to party. if we ever get married i'm writing a thank you note to zach for saving hazel at the club. daniel said something funny, to which we all laughed at. "yo. this is a nice place. what exactly do you guys do for a living?" hazel asked, taking a bite of her pancake that i so carefully made. i watched her literally melt and she started stuffing her face with the pancakes one and a time. "easy" i chuckled. she looked up at me with an innocent smile and right then and there my heart swelled. i laughed again. "we're in a band. you like the pancakes i assume?" "they're heavenly. also wow a band. are you guys well known yet?" she yawns, and stretches. the five of us looked at each other instantly. whenever we tell girls what we do, the treat us differently. like they didn't know we were rich until we mention it, and then try to sweet talk us into sharing the fame. that's the only reason we don't have too many girlfriends. we haven't found someone yet that loves us for us. corbyn got lucky first. we all agreed silently that so far she's been a lovely person towards us. "kinda" corbyn says with a nervous laugh at the end. "do you guys have an instagram or something?" she asks us collectively. daniel speaks up. "yea. let me see your phone" he pulls up our page and her eyes widen. she snaps her head up. "kinda?!" she asks confused. then christina walked in. "oh thank god a female" she says with a laugh. they hug. i, for some reason, blush. i stare a glance to corbyn, and he's smiling. "what was so bad about us?" zach asked, feigning hurt feelings. "probably everything" christina laughed. they talked for a couple seconds before i started eavesdropping on their conversation. "i got you dressed last night. it was so adorable you should've seen jack he was so swee.." i widened my eyes after realizing where this was going. "that's enough christina" i laughed nervously, blushing hard core. i pretended to fix my hair while i could feel hazels eyes burning on me. when i looked up, hazel was no longer sitting and she had sat next to jonah. oh well. they talked for a while before daniel asked her a question. "hey hazel, why were you at the club yesterday anyways?" she deadpanned and picked it back up with a look of panic. "oh i had a bad night before. at a party of all things" she muttered. "i deserved some me time" "what happened?" zach asked again. i looked over to him. i know he meant no harm, but i didn't like where it was going. "i had an argument with someone" she replied, not looking anyone in the eye. "who was it" zack asked her, one last time. hazel looked like she was about to cry. "zach, stop pressing man" i snapped. "guys it's been great, but, my apartment misses me. and i miss it. i'm not leaving without your numbers though, all of you are my new best friends" she said. my smile softened. i was sad to see her leave. christina and her went up stairs to do girly things while the guys and i were messing around, like usual. suddenly i had the best idea ever "guys we should make a groupchat" i mentioned out of nowhere. "we have one already?" jonah stated. "like one with hazel" i reinstate. "oh sounds cool" corbyn said, pulling out his phone.
