Live Simply

Chapter 32

Natalie's POV

I was laying on my bed, in the middle of my choking when my phone went off. It was Cameron.

Cameron - hey babe, we found Hailey and are one our way back to the hotel. 😘

I turned off my phone and went back to choking. I felt a rush go through me when I released. I continuously did this.

I released for the 13th time when I heard a knock at my door. I jumped up, opened the door and saw Cameron standing there.

"Hey beautiful." He said kissing my lips. I pulled away.

"Are you okay babe?" He asked me. I nodded and started to walk away. He grabbed my arm, holding me back.

"Yes Cameron, I'm fine." I said pulling out of his grip. I sat down on the bed and looked at the ground. I felt the bed sink next to me.

I looked over and saw Cameron looking worriedly at me. I wasn't fine. Cameron is smart enough to know that whenever s girl says she's "fine", she's not.

"Natalie, I know your lying." He said to me. I didn't look up at him.

"Cameron, yes I am lying. I don't feel the need to put my problems into your life. I'm not worth the time." I said tears falling from my eyes.

"Natalie. I can't sit here and let you say that about yourself. You mean the world to me and I'd do anything to help you." He said lifting up my chin ad kissing me.

"Please, don't ever take yourself from me." He said. I rested my head on his chest.

"I love you Cameron." I said. My phone went off and I opened it. A tweet.

@saryna.dallas - @natalie_wilson you should just kill yourself already. Then Cameron can have me. #nataliecandie

I saw Cameron looking over my shoulder reading the tweets. I quickly went into the comments, which wasn't a good choice.

@matthew.is.ma.bae - Natalie is s waist of space. She should die. #nataliecandie

@reyynoldss.babe - she is definetly a bitch. #nataliecandie

The rest of them were worse. I turned off my phone and dropped my head. Tears streamed down my face.

"Why do people have to be so mean?" I asked leaning into Cameron's chest. I felt him move and saw he grabbed his phone.

"What are you doing?" I asked him wiping my tears away. Cameron opened Twitter and started typing.

After he pressed send, my phone went off.

@camerondallas - everybody who is hating on @natalie_wilson, my girlfriend because you think that you should be with me. Natalie is the best thing that's ever happened to me and I would never go out with anyone that would bully someone because they are jealous. So everyone can stop bullying my babe. #natalieisbeautiful.

I look at him and smile.

"Cameron, I love you." I said pressing my lips against his aggressively. This was my babe. My forever. My life.

Aaron's POV

I carried Hailey bridal shower from the car to our room. When we got to the room, I laid her on the bed. I kneeled next to her on the ground.

I pushed her hair from in front of her eyes. She was so pretty. God. I was lucky to have her.

I kissed her lips for a long time. When I pulled away, I saw her gasp for hair. She was still out cold.

It wasn't a normal breath, I pulled back and looked at her.

"Babe, I love you so much. I was worried about you. I'm so happy your okay." I kissed her again.

Hailey was still in her jeans and white American Eagle sweatshirt from the flight.

I sat on the bed next to her. I really did love her. I would protect her, from everything. Anything that could hurt her.

I leaned down and put my head on her chest. I listened to her heart. It was beating rapidly.

I picked up my head and looked at my beautiful girlfriend. Maybe I was going crazy, but Hailey looked blue. I kissed her lips and stood up. I went out onto balcony and looked out at the city. I thought about Hailey the whole time.

Hailey's POV

I opened my eyes and saw that I was in my hotel room. The last thing I remember was seeing Matt fall to the ground next to me crying.

I looked around and decided to get out of bed. I felt a wincing pain in my chest. I figured it was from Matt kicking me.

I stood up and walked out to see Aaron on the balcony. I walked over to the glass door and opened it.

"Hey beautiful." He asks standing up and kissing me.

"Hey babe." I said as I sat down. My chest was pounding as I sat. I looked out at the city. It was engulfed with the night. The lights were so pretty.

I looked at my phone that I had grabbed. 10:36. Great.

"How long have you been up?" I asked Aaron taking his hand. He looked at me and smiled.

"Well I woke up this morning at 6:00. We got here at around 11 and Caila, Cam, your brother and I have been looking for you since about 12:30. We found you at 6:45 and got back to the hotel at 7:30. I stayed with you for an hour and I've been out here since." He said looking at me.

I took a deep breath and my chest felt like a million needles were being stabbed into me.

"Your so sweet." I said leaning over to kiss him. He pulled away after 10 seconds.

"You should go talk to your brother." He said. "Caila told me he's been sitting in his room since we got back."

I stood ups me winced. I opened the door and walked in. I opened the hotel
room door and walked down to Matt and Caila's room.

I knocked and Caila answered. She hugged me, squeezing me.

"Hey. I'm so happy your okay!" She said pulling away. I smiled.

"Where's Matt?" I asked her. Her smile vanished from her face.

"He's been out on the balcony for 4 hours." She said. I walked in and went to the balcony.

4I sat down on the chair in silence. After 5 minutes, Matt finally broke the silence.

"I'm sorry." He said. I looked at him.

"I didn't want to do that stuff to you. Carter made me." He said looking at me.

"Matt, why would you think that I would be mad at you. You did that stuff for my safety." I said. I looked at him and smiled.

"Can you please get off the balcony now?" I asked. He stood up as I did. We walked inside.

"Get some rest, we have an event tommorow." Matt said as I walked out the door. I walked down the hall to my room. I passed Bella's room.

Should I confront her? I turned around and went back to her room. I knocked on the door. As I waited for someone to answer I thought about what I should say.

Nash answered.

"Hey Hailey." He said hugging me. I hugged him back.

"Is Bella here?" I asked. Nash nodded and let me inside. I saw Bella sitting on s the small couch with a cup of ice in her hand.

"Hey Bella Llama." I said walking in front of her. She looked up and me and raised her eyebrows.

"Hi." She said. I sat down on the table her feet were on.

"Thanks, for telling Matt after I texted you." I said without making eye contact.

"Yup." She said popping an ice cube into her mouth. We sat there for about ten minutes in silence.

"Ya know, you really hurt me." She said looking at me.

"Bella, I didn't start the fight." I said to her.

"I don't care about the fucking fight Hailey! I care about that you lied to me for 4 years!" She screamed. I looked at her eyes and smiled.

"Your going to believe Peyton, a girl that you have known for about 3 days over you best friend that you've known for 4 years." I said standing up.

Bella looked at me. She was thinking. Whenever she stopped doing whatever it was she was doing suddenly, she was thinking. I looked at my phone. It was know 10:45.

"Hailey, I'm so sorry. Your right. I should have believed you." She said hugging me.

"Can you ever forgive me?" She asked into my ear.

"Best friends always forgive." I said.
I walked out the door to my room after saying good bye to Nash and Bella.

I got my best friend back, captured and reached all in one day. I went into my rooms and fell asleep instantly.
