Change (a Hayes Grier fanfiction)

Five

Five

I woke up and looked at my clock, I woke up five minutes before I am supposed to. I roll over and see someone in my bed! I jump up and scream because someone else is in my bed.

I woke the person up and he fell out of my bed. When he got up I saw Hayes rubbing his eyes and trying to see if he can hear out of his left ear.

"What the frick?" He says.

"I should be asking you the same thing!" I say putting sweatpants on over my spandex to try and keep myself modest.

"Nash was kicking me and I tried to sleep on the couch but it wasn't really working." He says throwing his hands up in defense and looking exhausted.

"Get out, I have to get dressed." I say pointing towards the door.

"Oh, getting dressed, I think I can stay for that." He says with a smirk and sitting on my bed.

"Leave." I says pointing at the door again.

"Why? It's noting I haven't seen before." He says with an even bigger smirk.

"Out!" I yell

Once he got out I stood over the ledge of the stairs and shouted to the boys who were eating my food like insubordinate savages.

"Swear to god if someone comes in here in the next forty five minutes I will stab you!" Then I storm back inside and start to get ready for school, such a stressful morning.

I didn't run this morning so I didn't feel the need to take a shower. I put on a white see-through shirt with a hot pink bandeau, then I put on some black high waisted jeans and curled my hair. I didn't bother with much makeup besides mascara and red lip stick. When I looked at my appealed self in the mirror I noticed the red slashes on my wrist. What if Hayes saw those? I need to be more careful when they're around. I put on my bracelets and some hot pink converse and walked down stairs.

When I got down I put some bread in the toaster and saw all the boys sitting at the bar attached to their phones.

"God, you can't go ten seconds without those." I say pulling out my toast.

"Shut up." Taylor says looking through twitter.

"What is the big deal about social media anyway, why can't you just talk to people?" I sat taking a bite out of my toast.

They just looked at me with their jaws to the floor.

"I think the god of social media was seriously offended right now." Nash says taking a sip of orange juice in a sassy tone.

"Whatever." I say then I plug in my phone into the house speakers and start to play Salute by Little Mix.

When I finished packing up my lunch and helping Hayes with his chemistry homework since he didn't understand it, we were all in Nash's pick up truck and on our way to school.

When I got in I separated from the boys, I didn't want Tiffany seeing me with them, oh wait she stalks me she probably knows that I had toast for breakfast. I started putting my books into my locker when the bell rang and everyone ran into their classrooms. I turned around and saw Tiffany and two of her boy toys behind her.

"I told you to stay away from Hayes." She says in between her teeth, yep she saw me with Nash and Hayes.

"It's not my fault our brothers are friends." I say trying to get away, but her goons held me against the locker with my hair. I whimpered in pain when my head hit the locker.

"Now you know I'm being serious." Tiffany says leaning towards me. "Finish her off boys." She says walking away. One of the jocks grabbed my hair again and threw me on the floor, then I felt sharp pains in my stomach from them kicking me. I started to cough up blood and when I looked up I started to get faint. The last thing I remember is Hayes running and picking me up, then darkness took over me.

I woke up in a hospital bed, I looked around and I see Hayes and Nash sitting in two chairs, they looked like they have been crying for hours. I look over to the door and see Taylor, when he saw me awake he dropped whatever he had in his hands and engulfed me in a hug.

"I am so sorry this happened to you." He says hugging me even tighter.

"Taylor- I- can't- breath-" I say

"Oh sorry." He chuckles and pulls away.

Suddenly I felt another pair of muscular arms around me.

"Hey Nash." I say hugging him back. He didn't say anything but I could feel his tears on my shoulder. When he pulled away I look over a Hayes who looked like he had been crying the most.

"We'll leave you two alone for a minute." Nash says pulling Taylor out of the room.

"Thank you." I say with a tear slipping down my face.

•Hayes POV•

"Thank you." She says with a tear slipping down her face.

I walk over to her her and wipe the tear with my thumb.

"It was nothing." I say with a smile. She looks down blushing but I put my hand under her chin.

"Don't hide your perfection." I say, and I mean it. She is everything I ever wanted. I don't even know why I would want to use her in the first place, she's so amazing. She smiles at me and I lean towards her. Then I kiss her, but this was different, I'm not using her or trying to get laid. I love her, as a person and not a thing. I pull away and she turns as red as a tomato.

"I'm not perfect." She says.

"You sit on a throne of lies." I say quoting from Elf. She just laughs and I pull her towards me then I kiss her again. She pulls away and says that she should call the doctor. I sit back in my chair just in time to see Nash and Taylor walk in. Thank god they didn't see me, I would be so screwed.

Soon the doctor comes in and told her that she needed some tests and then she would be free to go.

Soon the nurses came in and rolled CC away.

"How could someone get hurt so many times." Nash says behind me.

"Yah, she got a pretty bad beating." I say putting my fingers through my hair.

"Oh, ya, the beating." Nash says rubbing the back of his neck. What is he hiding from me?

"What?" He says noticing I was staring.

"What did that mean?" I says turning towards him.

"What do you mean." He says trying to shrug it off.

"What happened to CC." I say getting frustrated.

"Nothing."

"Nash, tell me."

"Sit down." He tells me. I quickly sit down noticing that Taylor wasn't in the room, he must have gone to talk to a nurse.

"CC has been depressed ever since her mom died, and over the past year she was resorted to self-harm. That's why she always wears bracelets. She doesn't know that we know, she doesn't even know that Taylor knows. He accidentally walked in on her cutting but she didn't see him." Nash says with tears in his eyes.

"That's why you need to stay away from her." Taylor says from the door way, I didn't even see him come in.

"What?" I say standing up.

"Your a player, you use girls left and right, your not using my sister." Taylor says getting stif.

"Who says I was going to use her?"

"We all know you are, including CC." Nash says looking down.

"What the hell? I'm not going to use her, I finally get it through my sick twisted head that I want to be with her." I say storming out of the room.

Is the only thing she sees in me is the fact that I was a player?
