Chris's POV
(^Idea brought to you by SpiritRiddle)

After (y/n) ran out of the dinning hall, everyone turned their attention to me, confused at what just happened. Harold spoke, attracting everyones attention. "What the fu-" but before he could finish, Heather walked in with an unreadable expression.

"Ok. Two things. One, who told (y/n) about the diary incident? And two, what happened to her arm? I mean, not that I care. That skank deserved what she got. I just want to know so I can see if it was painful enough." Everyone looked at her blankly before DJ answered her. "First of all, she burned her arm on the metal pot. I'm pretty sure that's painful enough. Secondly, no one said anything about her diary." Heather looked at him confused. "Are you sure? Because when she ran into the cabin, she looked as if she wanted to cry. That's why I came over here to see who had the balls to throw everyone under the bus and break her poor heart." Heather didn't have a single trace of sympathy on her face, making everything she said even more despicable than it was portrayed.

I looked down at my hands. Everyone was confused. Courtney was about to talk, but I beat her to it. "I may have yelled and been a little harsh on her, but I don't see why that would upset her. She's not the type of person to be affected by things like that." As soon as I finished talking, everyone looked at me in shock. The guys looked at me hopeless, for they didn't understand women's feelings. However, all the girls looked pissed. Bridgett started yelling at me. "You yelled at her? You were rude? She's not the type of person to be affected by that? Is this a fucking joke to you? You heard the tape. The girl is madly in love with you. I don't expect you to love her back being the self-absorbed ass wipe you are, but at least consider her feelings when you say and do things."

I looked at Bridgett in shock, then at everyone else who was also shocked at what she said. However, I couldn't let something a 16 year old said get to me. "Whatever. I never asked her to have feelings for me. I don't see why all of you have to be so judgmental." And with that, I left the dinning hall, making my way back to my cabin.

As I walked towards my cabin, I came across (y/n)'s cabin. Should I go and apologize? But what would I be apologizing for? I was only telling her the truth. Wait. Why am I getting worked up over this? What if she isn't crying and is just sleeping? I mean, Heather knows how to start drama. I stood there for about 5 minutes trying to make my mind up when I finally came to a decision.

I knocked three times, but got no answer. I knocked three more times. Still no answer. I decided to go in. I opened the door. "(Y/n)! I'm coming in!" I heard some shuffling as I closed the door shut. I walked over to the bunks, looking for (y/n)'s. I finally see her figure perfectly shaped under the sheets she is hiding under. The tip of her (h/l) (h/c) was barely peeping out from the top of the sheet. I sat beside her on the edge of her bunk. Thank God she got a bottom.

"(Y/n)...." I placed my hand on the exposed part of her head. She flinched under my touch. "Please look at me. I want to properly talk." (Y/n) hesitated, but eventually rolled over. That's when my heart shattered.

Her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had cried for days. Tear streaks stained her cheeks, which were as pale as snow. Her hair was dishevelled and her entire body wash shaking. She was a mess. Almost immediately I felt my heart rip in two pieces as I glanced upon her. I brought my hand up to her cheek, wiping away the tears. "I-I-I am so sorry. I didn't mean to say the things I said. It just, I.... I didn't know what to say in that type of situation."

(Y/n)'s eyes slowly moved to meet mine, then she finally spoke. "Do you mean it?" Her voice cracked, which only made the pain in my chest worsen. I tucked some of her hair behind her ear, cupping my hand on her face once more. "Absolutely." She gave me a weak smile before slowly fluttering her eyes shut, falling asleep.

I sat there for about 10 more minutes watching her fragile body sleep in pure bliss. I stared down upon her lips and whispered," What are you to me?" I lowered my face to hers, closing the gap in between our lips.

I immediately shot my head back up, resulting in me hitting it on the top bunk. I grasped the back of my head as I headed outside of the cabin. I closed the door and ran all the way back to my cabin. I walked in and slammed the door. I placed my back against it and slid down to the floor, placing my head in my hands.

Fuck!
