"You couldn't have texted me that you were staying the night?" Cami shouted in Aaron's living room, Carlos next to her.

"I'm sorry, it slipped my mind—"

"I was worried sick!" She grumbled, plopping down on the large couch in anger.

"Christ, please tone it down a bit Cami." Aaron groaned while pressing his large hands over his ears.

"No, I will not— Did you just say please?" Cami asked in shock, Carlos and I looked at each other with wide eyes before directing our gaze towards Aaron.

"Have you idiots never heard the fucking word?" Aaron rolled his eyes while taking out his phone.

"Well coming from you—" Carlos started, "— No!" he and Cami finished together.

"Fuck off." Aaron grumbled as we all chuckled.

"Well, I'll take Havoc off your hands then." Cami chuckled before discreetly pinching my arm.

"OW!" I let out as Aaron and Carlos both raised curious brows.

Cami laughed awkwardly before shaking her head, "Phantom pains." She said before whispering without barely moving her lips, "I need you to tell me everything that happened last night and don't miss a detail."

I gulped and nodded as we both got up and shuffled out of the penthouse, saying our goodbyes to the boys.

The drive home consisted of me talking about what had happened the night before as Cami let out small gasps and eyebrow wiggles.
She dropped me off at my house and kissed me goodbye before speeding off like a madwoman.

I slowly walked home and unlocked the door, greeted with a familiar silence and emptiness. These past few days I've been dreading sleeping alone, the mere thought of it sent shivers down my spine. I didn't want to bother Cami with it, she already had so much going on, so I kept to myself. She had lost one of her cousins not too long ago and needed to go out of town with aunt Erika and uncle Amos for the funeral for a few days.

"You're a big girl, Havoc," I reassured myself, keeping the thought of my parents out of my mind.
If I didn't think about it, I wouldn't dream about it.
I blasted some music on and hummed along to my favorite tunes while cleaning up a little and rearranging my closet. Cami had always called me a neat freak, something my mother had passed on to me.
I chuckled to myself before plopping down on my large couch and turning the TV on. I ordered some pizza and waited patiently for it to arrive.

About thirty minutes later the familiar ring of my doorbell resounded through the house. I padded over to the door and opened it, practically drooling at the pizza that would soon be inside my belly.

"Elijah?" I asked a familiar face in front of me.

"Havoc?" Elijah smiled at me while shaking his head, "How... How long has it been?" He asked, his deep voice ringing inside my head, memories flowing throughout my mind.

"It's... it's been about three years." I smiled at him, his green eyes peering at me. I had missed them, those green eyes that meant so much to me once upon a time.

"What are the odds?" He laughed warmly. I bit my lip and smiled at him before giving him a tight hug.

"I missed you." I whispered as he wrapped his arms around me.

"I missed you too, Ky." He said, reminding me that he was also one of the people that I cared for deeply.

"Come in!" I smiled while taking his hand in mine and pulling him inside.
We both sat down on the couch and ate the pizza, catching up on the years we had lost and reminiscing over the good times we had shared.
