Two days later

Hayes' POV

I was sat in the kitchen. Aaron was making me some food and Skylynn was busy colouring at the table. My mom had finally let Aaron move back in, seeing as Nash was now living with Tai. Oh poor Nash, he never has much luck with love, first Cameron and now Tai. Aaron looked at me with a questioning look. He could obviously sense that I was thinking deeply about something.

'Are you alright babe?' Aaron asked me and Skylynn looked up from the table.

'Im fine.' I told Aaron and I looked down at the island, Aaron didn't ask anymore questions, he just continued with making the food. Skylynn came over and sat beside me. She looked at me

'Youre not ok. Don't lie.' She said to me. Her eyes looked like she could tell exactly what I was thinking.

'Im not lying sky, honestly I'm fine.' I said and I smiled to her. She slit her eyes and looked at me through thin eyes.

'I know you're lying' (I just keep thinking of Matt lol) she repeated and I looked at her. Stop looking at me I thought to myself. Aaron turned up the radio he had playing while he cooked, it made me laugh. It reminded me of when Aaron and I first had a romantic encounter. Hehe. Skylynn tutted at my random laughter.

'Dinner is served.' Aaron said spinning round on the floor and presenting me with a full plate of food. The door knocked and Aaron looked at me. I shrugged my shoulders, how should I know who was at the door. Aaron went to open it and he came back through with Shawn, Taylor, Carter and Matt.

'Hey Hayes.' Matt shouted

'How you doing sky?' Taylor said to Skylynn and she ran at him and jumped in his arms, she seems him like a second Cameron, although Cameron is her one true love.

'What are you guys doing here?' I asked

'We came to say bye to Nash.' Taylor said, throwing Skylynn above his head

'Cameron was going to come but he's upset at the fact that Nash is moving so far away.' Shawn said.

'Wait, Cameron is still here?' I shouted to Shawn before anyone else could speak.

'Yeah he's been living with me.' Shawn said to me

'Why didn't you tell me?'

'Because Nash is with Tai, it shouldn't matter, Nash is happy.'

'No he's not.' I said and I looked down at the floor.

'What do you mean?' Carter said to me

'Nash isn't happy.' All the boys and Skylynn turned to look at me.

'Why?' Matt asked

'Tai...Tai beats him up. Does stuff to him. Forces him to do things. Nash can't get away from Tai. He's manipulative. Guys Nash is in a very abusive relationship and there's nothing we can do about it.' I said, crying into my bowl.

'Yeah there is. I can go over there and beat the little fucking shit out of that fuck head.' Taylor shouted

'Bad word Taylor.' Skylynn said to him and Taylor quickly put his hand over his mouth.

'Wheres Cameron now?' I asked

'Well he's at my house on the Xbox.' Shawn said. I looked at Aaron and Aaron looked at me.

'What are we waiting for.' I shouted

'What do you mean?' Carter said

'We can get Cameron to get Nash back.'

'But Nash is getting on a flight in about an hour.' Taylor said

'We can make it.' I shouted. Taylor grabbed his keys and Carter grabbed his, Aaron took my moms car and we drove as quickly as we could to Shawn's. Shawn opened the door and I saw Cameron on the sofa.

'What are you doing here Hayes?' Cameron asked me

'Nash needs you Cameron.'

'No he doesn't he has Tai.' Cameron said and his voice cracked

'Tai beats him up Cameron. Tai rapes him Cameron. Nash needs you Cameron.' Cameron's face looked red with anger.

'But he's gone now. I can't do anything.' We could all see his heart was breaking. Taylor took a few steps forward. I wondered what he was doing. He put his hand in his pockets and looked at Cameron dead in the eyes.

'Take the corvette and go.' Taylor said, handing Cameron his car keys. Cameron looked at Taylor as if to say are you sure, Taylor nodded. Cameron ran out of the door with all of us behind him. The engine of the corvette revved into life and Cameron took off down the road.

'Is he gonna make it?' Shawn asked

'I goddam hope so.' I said in return.

Cameron's POV

I knew Nash's flight took of at 10:30, it was 10:00 by the time I got to the airport, and I had to park still. I found a parking space but it was far away from the entrance to the airport. I ran as fast as I could into the airport. Leaving the corvette unlocked, Taylor is gonna kill me if it gets stolen. As I got inside I looked at the time, 10:10. I'm not going to find him in twenty minutes, I thought to myself. I went over to the information desk and there was no one behind the counter. I stood waiting for five minutes until I couldn't wait anymore and ran through the waiting area into the main body of the airport. I looked in all the shops hoping they were running late. That was when I saw the display board telling me all the outbound flights. There were two to New York at the same time, what one was Nash on.

I ran towards gate 1 which was the first gate i could go to, if I was wrong Nash would be on the complete opposite end of the airport at gate 26. I found the waiting room for gate 1 at 10:20. I walked to the passport checking desk.

'Excuse me has a Nash Grier come through here.' I asked

'I can't share information like that with you unless you have some form of ID.' The woman at the counter said.

'Please, you don't understand.' I said and she shut the booth in front of me. I whacked my fists against the glass. 'Please. I love him. Hamilton Nash Grier. Did he come through here.' The woman walked out from behind the booth and walked away from me. She didn't even look my way. I looked at the time 10:25. I wasn't going to make it.

I ran as fast as I could back to the main airport and ran towards gate 26. The flight was still running on time. At this rate, Nash will be boarding and I'll be left here while he's in New York getting abused every day, why did I do it? Why did I cheat? If I hadn't have cheated Nash never would have met Tai and this never would have happened. I let this happen. It was my fault. I ran as fast as I could until I met gate 26. I pushed past the woman at the desk and she just looked at me as I ran to the boarding area.
