Summer Break

Chapter Fourteen.

"Charlotte you should leave." Jack Johnson said, walking over to me and turning me away from the room. I shook myself out of his grip and turned back into the room.

"What happened?" My voice was shaky and my eyes watered. Cameron and Nash looked at each other and gave me an apologetic look. They grabbed Aaron, Hayes and Jack Johnson before leaving. I stepped further into the room and looked around the remaining boys. "What happened?" I repeated, more control in my voice this time.

Jack stood up and hesitated to begin speaking. "C-Carter punched Taylor." He stuttered. "So Taylor hit him back and Shawn got in the middle of them to try to stop the two from fighting." He explained. I looked down at Shawn who was holding the side of his head and laying on his bed. Then I looked over at Carter who had his hand over his left eye.

"Why did they start fighting?" I asked, looking between the two of them. I'm such a hypocrite right now but I honestly can't stand when people fight. If it's inevitable then so be it.

"T-" Jack began.

"It doesn't matter why!" Carter yelled, interrupting Jack. Shawn groaned in pain as he rolled slowly onto his other side.

"Where's Taylor now?" I asked.

"He ran off." Jack shrugged and walked over to Shawn to check on him. I bit my lip and walked over towards the door.

"You're not actually going to go and try to find him, are you?" Carter shouted. Shawn groaned again and held his head tightly. Jack rubbed his shoulder and tried to comfort him.

"Yeah, I am. Stop shouting." I muttered as I opened the door. I looked out into the corridor and saw four recognisable faces heading in the direction of the room. "Security is coming." I warned them. Jack nodded and murmured a quick thank you before I left the room.

I decided to use the stairs. That's when I thought, maybe he went further up the stairs. I decided to have a look. I walked up one floor and then walked up a second. The second floor I walked up actually led me to the roof of the hotel. I looked around as I stepped outside. Then I saw a figure in the distance, the figure was sat down with his knees up. It's got to be Taylor. I walked closer to the figure and then that's when the accusations were right. He didn't look at me at all. I sat down next to him. "Hey Taylor." I said. His nose was bleeding but he didn't even care. "Hey." I repeated.

"Isn't it crazy?" He spoke.

"What?" I furrowed my eyebrows and watched him carefully.

"How one person can change your everyday lifestyle." He scoffed. I frowned but allowed him to continue. "How that one person just affects everything. Everyone. How that one person can do all of that without even realising." He scoffed again and turned his head towards me.

"Me?" I pointed to myself. Taylor nodded slowly and looked down at the ground he was sat on. "What have I done?"

"Exactly." He chuckled. "You don't even know." He stood up and leaned against the glass fence/railing. I frowned and stood up. I walked over beside him and leaned against the glass myself.

"Just tell me." I said.

"No. No." He nodded. "You'll soon work it out." He looked directly at me and winked.

I sighed and folded my arms. "So what happened between you and Carter back there?" I asked.

"Oh nothing." He chuckled.

"Just tell me." I said sternly. Taylor's head turned towards me and I couldn't resist wiping away the blood beneath his nose. He looked at me and stepped forward. His hands met my waist and I looked down as he leant forward. I took a step back and he seemed hurt. "Don't you have a show?" I asked, changing subject.
