almost broken. (a Hayes Grier fanfic)

Almost broken. (Chapter 11)

*Taylor P's pov.*

After Mak came back I smiled. She doesn't do this often. She's strong, it's just something that really hurts her will make her do that. I don't know what happened this time but I hope she will tell me. She used to trust me with her life and I hope she still does. "Guys can we leave now? I'm hungry." I say patting my stomach. "Same." Mak and Taylor M say at the same time. They look at each other, "ayyeeee." They say laughing. I laugh at there stupidity they still have. Nothing has changed. Exactly how I wanted it to be.

*Nash's pov.*

I think I am going to make my move on Taylor P. Maybe I will kiss her, then ask her out? Or should I ask her out then kiss her? Oh god I am talking to myself inside my brain. I laugh and get in the vehicle. "Where are we going again?" I ask rolling down my window. "I don't know know, where do you guys want to eat?" Mak asks pulling away from the beach. "Well I want to go to chipotle." Taylor M says grabbing Cams hand. They entwine there fingers and look at each other. They smile and look away. I wish Taylor P and I could be like that. I'm going to make it happen. I'm going to ask her out. I promise you that I will.

*Taylor M's pov.*

I grab Cams hand. I look up at him and he looks down at me. I smile and he does too. And I look away. Cam is one of the most amazing boyfriends anyone could ever ask for. He is there for you when you need to talk, he buys you food like that's amazing. He will bug you and bug you until you tell him the reason you are sad when you are. It's annoying but it's also sweet how he cares so much. I don't know he's just amazing. "Taylor?" Cam asks me. "Yeah babe?" I say/ask him. "Do remember the day we met?" He asks playing with my hand. "Of course." I say answer. "Well that is the day I feel in love with you. That day, was the day my life changed. If I didn't dump that drink on you that day, we probably wouldn't be dating right now." He says smiling. "I thought you were the biggest asshole that day. Until you took my to the mall and bought me like 5 shirts, because you wrecked my one shirt. I tried to get you to only buy me one. But you insisted. You made me laugh tell I cried. You made me fall utterly in love with you." I say back to him looking him in the eyes. He was blushing and had the biggest smile on his face while I was talking. "Well, tomorrow. Is exactly 3 months since I fell in love with you. And I was wondering if you wanted to go out tomorrow?" He asks nervously. "Cam you don't need to be nervous. You are my boyfriend. Yes I will go out with you." I say kissing him quickly on the lips. "You guys that was adorable. I'm crying." Mak said waving her hand in her face. I blushed, "well that vine of you and Hayes is so adorable too." I say making her turn red as a tomato. We all laughed and sat and listened to the radio tell we got to chipotle.

*Makaylas pov.*

So Nash told me about his plan. He said he's going to act like something bad happened, then he will tear up, and ask to go get some air. No one will chase after him because we all know about the plan except for Taylor P. And then I will tell Taylor to go check on him. And by the time she goes out there, Nash has got the rest handled he said. I smiled at the thought of how Nash likes Taylor so much. She also likes him that much so it's gonna be such a cute relationship. I just pushed my thoughts aside as I got out of the vehicle. We walked in for our food and sit down. We had little side conversations with the couples. Well, me and Hayes, Taylor M and Cam, and Taylor p and Nash. They weren't a couple yet, but by the end of today they will be. I needed to go to the washroom, so I said I was going. They all nodded and went back to eating their food. I walked to the washrooms, did my business, washed my hands and went to walk out. I was going to the door but it got blocked by Brianna. "Where do you think you're going?" She asks me. "Back to my table to eat obviously." I say to her pushing to get past her. But she grabs my wrist and pulls me back into the washroom. "Do you really think eating is a good idea? Your fat enough already." She says giggling. I fake smile and say "listen Brianna. You don't need to be jealous that I have Hayes. Hayes loves me and you know that. You and Hayes are broken up now so can you just leave us alone? You've had over 20 boyfriends why not find yourself a new one." I tell her trying not to get mad. "Oh sweetie, you think Hayes loves you. That's cute. Hayes still likes me, so you should just give up. He will never like you." she says smirking. I chuckled. "If he will 'never like me' how come we are dating?" I ask making air quotations around the words never like me. "Well it's just because he feels bad." She blurts. "Whatever Brianna, I'm done talking." I say walking out of the washroom at a fast pace. I sit back down at the table. But I don't start eating because of what Brianna told me. "What took you so long?" Asks Taylor P. "Uh, there was lots of people in there." I say nervously. She gives me a weird look, and I give her the I'll tell you later look. She nods and goes back to eating. Hayes puts his arm around me and I flinch. "What's wrong?" He asks. "Can we go talk outside?" I ask him starting to tear up a little. "Sure, he says right away and we quickly walk outside. "Makayla whats wrong?" He asks as a tear rolls down my cheek. He wipes it away with his thumb and waits for me to respond. "Do you love me?" I ask him as more tears come out. "Of course I do. Why would you even ask that?" He asks me sounding like he doesn't want to find out. I wipe my tears off, "nothing let's go back inside." I say starting to walk a away. He grabs my wrist and pins me against the outside wall of chipotle. "No, we aren't going inside until you tell me why you would ask me that." He says getting really close to my face. "I don't want to tell you. I hate telling everyone what happens because I cry and it makes me look weak." I say not looking at him. "Makayla you are the opposite of weak. You are strong. You are so very strong. With the stuff me and Skylar put you through? You are stronger then anyone I've ever known. You have battle scars. Yes but those are scars. Which means you are winning. You haven't lost the war yet. You have been fighting for a long time and I want to help you win this war. And you are going too. For starters, you are going to stop cutting." He says to me. I smile but instantly frown again. "I can't.. I can't stop cutting." I say looking away from him. "Look at me. And tell me what happened. Right now. I am here for you. And you need to trust me." He says looking me in the eyes. I gave in and told him everything.
