Is it Hi or Hey?

Chapter 15

*Hazel's P.O.V.*

I don't think anyone has really looked at me like I was something of importance till those boys showed up and decided I was their next kill. Don't get me wrong, they are my life and I love them to death, but I cant take that they control everything I do in my life now. I could feel like jumping off a bridge and Michael would be there telling me that it's the wrong thing to do. And all I would do is say okay and step down. They utterly control me 100%. There's no leaving them behind. I'm stuck with them. When I'm old and finished with my dreams I'll remember Michael's cute smiley face and think to myself that my life is complete and I don't need anything in life but him and our friends.

The sad part of this all, I try to tel myself that this is a lie and no matter how hard I try, I know that everything I just stated is true fact. There's no getting away from the boys. I can look at myself and know that I wont be making any decisions to leave them. The way Michael looks at me when he wakes up in the morning is what helps me remember I have people that love me. I have a family, and although they aren't blood, they are my family and I would be dead without them. I wish I could tell them what I'm telling you right now. But I'm too scared. There isn't enough confidence in my body to look someone in the eye and say "You saved me, I'd be dead right now if you didn't show up in my life".

*Ashton's P.O.V.*

I know she needs us. She's been showing the signs of depression for weeks. I have to help her. I know how this feels. She needs me and the rest of the boys. I'm never letting her leave us behind. I can't let something bad happen to her. She's my best friend. I love her like a sister. Us as a group has made me realize that she's the one that brought us truly together. Before we were close, but not as close as we are now.

Hazel's been sleeping since Michael went home to have a shower. Luke hasn't left her side since then. He feels horrible because she saved him and he wanted to be the one to save her. She went in and saved his life, he won't get over that. I think Luke likes Hazel.

*Michael's P.O.V*

I couldn't sit in there any longer and watch her lay there heaving because she can't actually breath properly. I probably cried five times since she fell asleep. The hardest thing about this whole situation is that I couldn't do anything to help them. I couldn't save my girlfriend or my best friend. That guilt will hang over my head for a long time. I love her so much, more than anything in the world. She makes me so happy and whenever I see her I get this feeling in my stomach and I know she's the one. She truly has become my world and I can't thank her enough for accepting my lame ass. She's the perfect girl and I'm the guy that got lucky. God that sounds so cliché. Hazel brings my life to a stop and puts it in high gear all at the same time. I love that about her. She can make it feel like months but it's also been like a blink of an eye since I met her in that parking lot in front of our school.
