Broken Waves

The Strong Currents

Taylor's pov:

"What the hell is happening between you two? Laura is in the hallway in a fucking towel- holy shit Gilinsky what happened to your face-" It was Aaron, I looked up at him and he ran towards Jack to take him to the bathroom and washed up his face. I got up and stood in the doorway and looked at what I did to his face, my stomach went empty and I ran to the toilet and threw up. I felt a pat on my back, and I looked up to see Jack, with his busted hip and bruised face.

"Holy shit Jack, I am so sorry I don't know what got into me. I mean, Laura means everything to me and just hearing how you'd do that just made me so mad." I started tearing up, and I heard Aaron get out a pack of gum and handed me a piece.

"I'm sorry too Taylor, I shouldn't have said that but you were being too protective over her. You just met her yesterday." Jack sat down beside me and was holding a kleenex to his nose.

"I know, but when I saw her through the sunroof, it felt like I've known her forever, you know?" He nodded and told Aaron to go back to his room, when Cam walked in.

"Who the fuck punched Laura, and why. She's in Shawn's Magcon sweater asleep on his bed with a black eye." He was pretty pissed,

"It was me. I didn't mean to punch her-" Cameron rolled his eyes,

"Taylor, you need to calm the fuck down and just stop. I know you two have some sort of connection- holy shit Jack your face!" Cameron stopped and made that face you make when you figure something out. "I get it now, so you two are both after Laura! Ha, that's funny. Well, now after what Taylor just did to her I think you're both fucked." And he walked out along with Aaron.

"Let's get cleaned up from Magcon and we'll ask Shawn if Laura's okay." I shook my head,

"After what I just did to her, I don't think any of the guys want to see me right now. You go, I'll brush my teeth and get dressed." Gilinsky pat me on the back and checked to see if his nose was still bleeding, then he left the room.

Gilinsky's pov:

I walked up to Shawn's door and knocked, luckily he answered and let me in. I walked in and saw Laura asleep in his bed with Johnson lying down beside her, holding an ice-pack to her face. Johnson saw me and his eyes widened,

"Holy shit dude, are you going to Magcon looking like that?" He stared at my wounds.

"I can put some makeup on it, I think Laura has something I could use, if you don't mind Shawn."

"You really need something, so yeah I don't mind." He left the room to get her makeup bag, and while he was gone, I lay down beside Laura putting my arm over her and I fell asleep.
