chapter 7

Cora

"We don't know what happened to Harrison, right?" I ask loud enough for Tom and Harry to hear me. They turn around and Tom gets up and Harry quickly follows. "When was he exiled?" I question switching my gaze between all three of them, "only a couple days before we found you" Tom answers when I focus on him.

"He can't have gone very far. The furtest he could have got is the inn a few hours that way or the city. He was smart he would have known going into the forest would be a death wish" I pipe up. they all have a look of realisation painted on their faces and they look at me, "and if Tom gave him supplies he'd have a gun and water and food. Therefore he was proctected"

They nod, "so he would have survived" Harry chimes in with a grin, "we should head back to camp get geared up and leave at first light to find him" Dan says opening the doors.

Tom stares at him in disbelief, "I don't want him suffer because of a stupid mistake he made and I definitely, one hundred percent want you to be happy again" He smiles and hugs him.

Harry pushes past and gets in after Dan and I grab Tom and pull him back. I hug him and he immediately returns it like he saw it coming, "we'll find him" I confirm for us both, "I just miss him" He says backing away and rubbing his eye.

I smile and pull him into the car. "I forgot to ask... Who is driving?" They laugh and I join in lightly, "Jack, he was here when you first got in... I called him Cameron but It's his last name" Dan replies with a smile, "how and why is he helping me? He gave me death glares".

"I realized who you were... And how important you used to be to me" A voice chimes in through a small hatch. He didn't show his face so all I had to go off of was his voice.

Cameron? Jack Cameron? The name rings a bell but I don't know where I've heard it. Wait... Jack!

"Frost!" I blurt out catching everyone of guard including him. The car slows to a stop. He pokes his head round and winks at me, "took you long enough kitten" He starts the car and continues on. I smile to myself and the others look at me strangely.

The rest of the ride was short and before I knew it we were safe and sound inside the gate. The boys got out first and Jack walks around the back where we were.

He holds out his arms for a hug and I jump straight from the car into his arms. He swings me round then places me gently on the floor but doesn't break the hug.

"You've changed Frost" I say coming of my tiptoes and facing him. He simply shrugs and smiles. He runs a hand through his messy, silvery-white hair. "I could say the same about you kitten... Though your not really a kitten anymore" He says with a cheeky smirk, "tiger" He announces with a proud smile.

I chuckle at him and he joins in. He throws an arm around my neck and we walk over to Tom, Harry and Dan who are talking with my brother.

"Thank god your alright" Noah gushes pushing past the others and standing in front of us. I glace at Dan who notices Jack's arm around me. He turns his head and focuses on the ground with an annoyed expression.

Noah pulls me away from Jack and hugs me tightly. "What's going on out here!?" A loud voice booms causing everyone to turn around. Including me and Noah. "Cora! Cora! Cora!" A smaller voice yells.

"Kiran!" I mimick his tone. he jumps into the air and I catch him and hold him close. "What's going on?" The voice repeats softer. People move out of the way and show a path that I stand at the end of.

I place Kiran down and he runs to the man at the other end, "daddy!" He cheers and hugs his legs. I lower my mask and the man visibly sucks in a breath.

Dark messy hair. Green eyes. Little facial hair...

"Dad?" I whisper but he seems to hear it. "Cora?" He whispers back. I nod slowly and he makes a few small steps.

He walks quicker and I see the tears in his eyes start to fall. I run toward him and he wraps me in a hug. Tears of my own fall and he tightens his grip.

"Sir. Terribly sorry we need your assistance" A posh voice rings through the air. Completely ruining the moment. He sighs and pulls away. He rests his hands on my shoulders and smiles, "I'll find you in bit flower" I nod and he walks away with a very Scrawny man.

I quickly notice all the attention I'm getting and lift my mask back up over my mouth and nose.

I feel everyone's gaze Pierce through me and I feel uncomfortable. I search through the crowd to see if I can spot anyone but I can't see the people I know.

After a minute of people staring and me searching I see Dan. He notices me and smiles. But that smile withers when Abby walks over to him. I don't know what she says but she tiptoes and tries to kiss his cheek but he avoids with an annoyed expression.

She looks hurt and looks to me. She turns so her back is to me and says something angrily.

They fight for a moment and I try to find anyone else to go to but again found nobody. "FINE I'LL DO IT MYSELF! We're through!" I hear Abby scream. I don't wanna hang around more.

Walk away

I walked away and didn't look back until I was out of his line of sight.

Damn he was right. She is a bitch
