Circus
I wake up with a big gasp escaping from my mouth. My breathing is short due to the constant crying over my parent's death. The first person I see by my side is Matt. He smiles at me. "You're okay," he mouths.
I hear a voice coming from the opposite side of where Matt is standing. "The doctor said you can leave when you wake up." Cameron informs me.
"Wh-Where am I? What happened?" I ask. Did the man that I called my dad actually tell me that my real parents are dead?
I look around at everybody waiting for a response. I see all of the boys except for Nash and Taylor, of course they're both not here, and Shawn is gone too. They glance at each other with a look of hesitation. The looks on their faces almost make me believe that was true.
"Well you just got the glass out of your foot, and it's stitched up now," Jack G. says without making eye-contact with me. I'm just going to let it go. I'm not completely sure I want to know the truth anyways.
"Alright. So you said I can leave now?" I change the subject.
"Yeah," Matt lets out a sigh of relief.
As we're walking out of the hospital Matt stands by my side and puts his snapback on my head. I giggle.
"We only have one car with us. Someone will have to sit on someone's lap," Cameron informs us.
"Alright Sky is sitting on my lap! I'm calling it right now!" Carter yells to make sure everyone hears.
"Shouldn't I choose since I'm the lightest one here?" I ask. " And I vote for Carter to drive."
"Are you calling us fat?" Brent makes his face where he's taking offense to something I said. It happens a lot.
"No. You're just fatter than me."
I end up sitting on Cameron's lap in the back seat behind the driver's seat.
When we make it back to the house I finally feel calm for once. Nothing is bothering. It's like I can't think about anything that is wrong in my life. Cameron followed me into my room and help me unpack my small bags from staying at the hotel.
Just as I was about to speak to Cameron, my phone interrupts. I pick it up to see that it's from an unknown number. I decide to answer it, which might not have been the best decision.
*Phone Call*
Skylar-Hello?
Taylor-Sky?
Skylar-Tay? Why are you calling me? I thought you were leaving me?
Taylor-You know it was hard for me to just stay with you as you forget me more each day.
Skylar-You think it's hard for you Taylor?! What the fuck?! Are you insane?! I'm the one who's losing my memory! Do you know how hard that is for me?!
Taylor-It's not hard for you! You won't remember forgetting everything!
Skylar-But I have to live with the fear of forgetting each and every one of my best friends, my brother, my family, you! You're part of my family! So are all of these guys!
Taylor-I know that. I just thought you would understand.
Skylar-You want me to somehow understand why you left me?! I trusted you Taylor! I trusted you with my life! And you ruined it, you ruined everything!
Taylor-What if I came back? Would you forgive me?
Skylar-No! You can't just come back and be expected to have everything back to normal! I wouldn't want you to come back either!
Taylor-Too late.
*End of Phone Call*
I turn around and see Taylor standing in the doorway. Cameron comes over to me and catches me before I fall to the ground in tears. Why does life have to be so complicated?
I actually got used to him being gone. I got so caught up with everything that happened with Nash, my foot, and just everything. I had forgotten about Taylor. I got used to having him out of my life.
"Now isn't really the best time, man. Maybe you should leave," Cameron has a straight face as he says that to Taylor.
"Skylar I just want you to know that I realized I wanted to spend as much time with you as I can before you forget me. That's why I came back," Taylor pouts.
"You ruined it the first time you walked out that door and you said goodbye forever," I manage to say.
Taylor walks out and I can hear his footsteps fade as he gets farther and farther away from me. I think that hurt me more than it hurt him. I don't mean to be so harsh. He, of all people, should know how much I've been through though. Even if he didn't talk to me for a long time, he knows that my life is never normal.
"Sky..." Cameron breaks the silence except for my occasional sobs.
"It's just that with Nash. Tiffany. Now Taylor. And then I find out my parents died." I didn't mean to say that last part. I guess now I can know whether it was just a dream or not.
"Sky, we've all probably said these things a million times to you, but I'll say it a million and one times: You have been through the most a person can be through. I just want you to know that I'm here for you, Shawn is here for you, all of us are here for you, no matter what, even Taylor is here for you. He is now at least."
I don't know what came over me, but the moment just felt right, so I kissed Cameron. I wrap my arms around his neck as he kisses me back. Who ever said girls can't make the first move?
Cameron abruptly backs away. "Skylar, as much as I like you, I kinda have a thing going on with Ariana. You know that."
"I-I-I'm sorry. I just got caught up in the moment. I guess I was just getting my signals mixed up. Sorry."
Cameron opens his mouth to say something, but stops. Instead he just walks out of my view. I follow behind a specific distance away. Right on cue, Ariana comes and gets all up and personal with Cameron.
Ariana is my best friend, I don't know why I would do that to her. Now I feel horrible. Cameron glances back at me and I get out my phone to call Shawn.
*Ring 1*
*Ring 2*
*Ring 3*
*Ring 4*
No answer. Shawn never answers when I need him the most.
I decide to call Matt instead.
*Phone Call*
Skylar-Hi Matt. Can we go out for lunch or something. I need someone to talk to.
Matt-Of course. I'll be right over to pick you up. Where do you want to eat?
Skylar-Surprise me.
Matt-Alright. See you soon Sky.

FanficYou would think that me, Skylar Mendes would have the perfect life as to how my brother is a famous viner, but you would think wrong. Shawn and I used to be really close and tell each other everything. We would go through the same thing and be there...
