A/N
Hello, and welcome back! Sorry I took forever to upload! As usual, hope you enjoy, and I'm sorry for any typos in advance. Also, are you Team Naida or Team Nikki? Share the love!

Winter's POV:

When I woke up, I was dreadfully aware of my surroundings. Three of the girls from the room were standing over me, and Nikki was spooning me. Great.

I look around the room more and saw the rest of the girl huddled in the corner. I tried to look around, to see what they were looking at.

And when I saw, my heart dropped. There was Naida, in the corner, staring, well, glaring at Nikki. She was beyond pissed.

Whatever we had, I probably ruined it.

Nikki stirred in her sleep and Naida looked at me, seeing I was awake. She stormed over to Nikki's bed and ripped me from it. Like, literally grabbed my arm and yanked me out if the bed, and out if Nikki's embrace. Well, it's official. I'm dead.

"Naida? What-" What are you doing here? What is going on? What is that expression in you face, and why does it look like jealousy? It doesn't matter what I was going to say because Naida cut me off.

She pulls me to her, our lips connecting harshly. This kiss was more possessive than passionate like our kisses were before. My eyes pulled together when she pulled away, and I opened my mouth to say something, bit she beat me to it.

"You're mine, Little Winter." She growls out, glancing at Nikki. I turn to look at her, but Naida grabs my face again, kissing me roughly. I'm honestly shocked. What does she think she's doing? And what is Nikki doing about this? Is she sad? Is she mad? Is she disgusted? Does she not care because she barely even knows me, and that doesn't change, even if I helped her out last night? Probably.

Naida then drags me out of the room and I hear mutters, asking who Naida is, who she is to me... Who is she to me anyway? What are we? Are we kinda-together? Are we kinda-not? Behind all the mutters, I hear Nikki's voice. I can't make out what she's saying, but I can tell she's upset, though I don't know why she would be in the first place.

When we are far enough away from the room, and no one can hear if she kills me, Naida spins around to face me.

"What was that!" She shouts more than asks.

I'm taken aback by her tone of voice, and I can tell she sees it. Then my hurt turns to anger. I didn't even do anything wrong!
"What was that? What was you dragging me out if the bed, and the whole room, for that matter? I didn't-"

"Yeah, I'm sure you didn't do anything." She says with icy venom.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I accuse.

"You're always innocent! That's why people target you!"

"I'm only innocent compared to you!"

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"I'm not as innocent as everyone thinks! I am not a child, much to your dismay."

"You're not innocent? Surprising that's not the craziest thing I've heard all day."

"If you have something to say, spit it out all ready!"

"Fine! It actually hurt to see you in a bed with someone else. I trusted you..." She trails off, and a single tear slides down my face. I've never seen Naida that upset.

"Naida, it wasn't-" I tried to say. Of course, she just loves to cut me off.

"No. It wasn't. Because you are too innocent. Which is why Nick and Radley targeted you." She paused and my heart races. What could she possibly say now? I thought she had gotten all her age out already. "It's also why we should just be friends. It's for the better." It's for the better?! Next she'll be saying 'it's not you it's me.'

My jaw drops open, but before I can say, or do, anything, she walks off. I walk slowly back to the room, and when I open the door, everyone looks at me. I even see Angel there, sitting on my bed.

I cross the room over to Angel and plop on the bed beside her. She looks down at me with a look of concern in her eyes. "Is everything okay? Your eyes are red." She says, making tears well up in my eyes once again.

"Your sister just kinda-broke-up with me."

That's when the tears started to spill out of my eyes, and I notice everyone in the room looking at me. I gulp and look around. I find her in the corner, sitting on her bed, looking at me with a look of worry, guilt, and.... I don't know what.

I don't know what was going on in my mind, but I decided to cross the room and go over to her. I plop down on her bed and her eyes widen. "Are you okay Winter?"

I shake my head slowly. "No. I'm not okay." That's when the tears started to flow, and she stoked my hair, trying to calm me down. I gave her and Angel, and basically the whole room, a rundown of what happened.

When I was done, Angel looks at me. "I am so going to kill my sister."

We hug, I cry some more, and before we know it, it's time for food. Everyone goes out for food, and Angel goes to get food for me and Nikki, leaving me and her alone.

"Was it my fault?" She mumbles into the quiet room. She looks up at me, and I see the guilt back in her eyes.

I frown and cup her face. "Nothing is your fault. Trust me on that."

"Are you going to be okay?" She asks seriously.

I give her a half smile and nod. "Soon enough."

She smiles back at me and intertwines our hands together. Fireworks shoot through me, and I flinch at the intensity.

Nikki pulls her hand back. "I'm sorry! Too soon?" She rushes out, rambling apologies.

I shake my head and grab her hand again. "That's not it."

She stops talking and smiles. I don't know what's going to happen with Naida, and I'm not positive j can just be her friend, but I know I can't just be Nikki's friend.
