"What? Why would you go there?" he sits up.

"Cam, I needed to. Devon was one of my older brothers and the fact that he died when I was ten is heartbreaking. And he's dead because of me."

"You were gone longer though, where else did you go?" he places his hand on my shoulder.

"No where," covering up lies with more lies seems so simple, till you have to do it.

"Don't lie to me."

"I'm not, I just was at Devon's grave," Cameron hates Nathan with all his life. Next to Damian, Nathan is first to kill on his list. This was all a mistake, a mistake that crippled my family's future.

"I'm really tired, we should go to bed." is the last thing I say to Cameron before I fall asleep on his arms.

Heavy footsteps become louder from behind me. I look back, but nobody is there. The moon beams onto the branches of the dead forest I remain in. Suddenly, a man in a black cloak appears behind me.

His face is not seen, due to the hood of the cloak being to droopy. Only his chin and lower lip is revealed, but it's not enough to tell who it is.

I start running. Swerving away from trees and stumps, I stop at a bridge that's above a small creek. On one side I see Cameron, and on the other is the mystery man.

"Cam!" I run over to him and wrap my arms around his neck, but he pushes me off.

"What do you think you're doing?" he huffs.

"B-But I thought you loved me?" I stutter in fear.

"Why would I love you, when I'm about to kill you?" my stomach drops and I bolt past him. When I look back, him and the man are chasing after me.

As I'm running, I trip and fall over a stump. The man comes up close and chuckles.

"W-Who are you?"

"Your worst nightmare," he grabs the edge of his hood and starts to pull it up.

I wake up with my heart beating erratically and my forehead dripping in sweat. Nobody is in the room, but me. I walk into the kitchen and find Alandra and Grace. "Morning," Grace smiles at me.

"Where is everyone?" I rub my eyes.

"The guys went to go get some more boxes." Alandra says. Her hair is wrapped in a messy bun, but it looks good on her.

"Boxes?"

"Oh, Cameron didn't tell you?" Grace raises her eyebrows and frowns in the corner of her mouth.

"Tell me what?" my voice gets uneasy.

"We are all moving to Maui in a few days."

"Maui! Why the hell are we moving there?" I place my elbows on the kitchen table.

"It's safer, and we can get away from everything." I want to leave, but I can't. Leaving will only make things worse.

He will find me, and try to kill our new baby and Ellie! I can't let this happen!

"I can't, I can't go." I shake my head a few times and then place my hands on top of my head. "No, no, no." I worry.

"Desserea, is everything alright?" Grace and Alandra walk over to me.

"He's gonna find me and he gonna kill our new child!" I blurt. Covering my mouth with my hands, I just realized that I broke my promise.

"Who is?"

"I've said too much already," I leave the room and lock myself in the closet.

"Desserea," they pound on the door and try to get me to come out, but I right now I just wanna escape. Closing my eyelids, I escape reality. All noise becomes a muffled mess and all sight becomes a blur.

It's time to leave this shitty place.

**(Don't literally do this)**

- Grab a plate and throw it on the floor.
- Okay, done.
- Did it break?
- Yes.
- Now say sorry to it.
- Sorry.
- Did it go back to the way it was before?
- No.
- Do you understand?

Try to figure it out.

Add me on snapchat and snapchat me what you think it means.
