  *Maggie's POV*

  "I... do Matt but I just don't know if we should get married. We are so young still." I mumble staring at the water.

  "You know what?" He sighs "You're right we are to young... but I just wanted you to know that I love you and don't want you to leave me because I'll be a mess. I wouldn't know how to go on." He laughs.

  "Ask me again in 5 years." I smile.

  "You can count on it! Do you wanna go eat there's this really good place just up on the pier."

  "Yeah sure!" I run to the beach.

  ***********

  We get to the restaurant it's a small yellow and blue building with cement tables all around the front.

  "Hello welcome to Paradise Burgers! How may I help you?" The waitress smiles walking up to our little table.

  "Hi I'll have a double cheese burger... american cheese... with a side of cheese fries... and a medium root beer." Matt says scanning the menu.

  "And for you?" She writes down his order.

  "Can I please have a burger with mustard ketchup and lettuce with a small fry and small chocolate shake."

  "Sure thing your order will be up soon."

  "Thank you." She smiles and walks away.

  "I hope your hungry!" Matt laughs.

  "I am. The question is are you?" I giggle.

  "Did you hear my order?" He says sarcastically.

  We talk for a few more minutes and then our food comes.

  *************

  "That was really good!" Matt takes the last fry.

  "I'm so full!" I go in my bag to look at my phone. "Matt my phones missing!" I say once I notice it's gone.

  "Maybe it's at the beach?" He gets up leaving 30 dollars on the table.

  We look on the beach for about 45 minutes until Matt almost steps on it.

  "Found it!" He laughs.

  "Thank you!" I turn it on "50 texts from Nash and Kylie and 30 calls?"

  "Really? Why?"

  "Matt we have to go!"

  "Wait why what happened?!"

  "Kylie found Cameron passed out in his room with fresh cuts on his arms." I cry.

  "No! No! No!" Matt runs to the car and I run after him.

  "I'm calling Nash."

  "Hurry!" He balls starting the car.

  "Maggie?!"

  "Nash what's happening where are you?"

  "We are in the hospital in the waiting room. Cameron was in really bad shape." 

"We are on our way. I have to let you go we'll be there soon. Everything's gonna be okay I promise."

  "Okay please hurry." He hangs up.

  ************

  We walk into the hospital and Kylie is laying in Nash's arms.

  "Guys have you heard anything?" Matt runs in.

  "No not yet." Nash says.

  "Kylie are you okay?" I touch her arm.

  "She hasn't talked since they took Cam away." Nash moves her hair out of her face.

  "Kylie talk to me." I kneel down next to her. Her face is white and her eyes lifeless staring blankly. "Kylie!" I yell and start to cry.

  "Hey hey hey she's okay calm down." Matt grabs my arm and pulls me away.

  "Hello can I please talk to Kylie... Kylie Franta?" The nurse says walking over.

  "She's not really talking right now..." Nash looks down at her tears falling from his face.

  "Cameron asked for her. He's awake."

  "Cameron's... awake?" Kylie whispers sitting up.

  "Yeah if you want he asked for you to come down?"

  "Uh yeah I do." She stands up walking towards the nurse.

   **********

  *Kylie's POV*

  The nurse leads me to Cameron's room and he's laying on the bed pale and arms wrapped up in cloth.

  "Kylie." He mumbles staring at the ceiling.

  "Cameron!" I cry hugging him.

  "Ow careful." He winces.

  "Sorry."

  "It's okay." He laughs.

  "How are you feeling?" I ask still in tears.

  "I...I'm...I..." He starts breathing heavy and grabs the bed rail.

  "Cameron?! Nurse?! Help! Help! Cameron!" I scream.

  The nurse runs in "Get her out of here!" She yells panicked another nurse grabs my arms.

  "Cameron! No!" I thrash trying to get out of the nurses grip but she holds me back. "Cameron you promised!" I scream.

  "Come on sweetie." The nurse says still trying to pull me out.

  "But he promised!" I yell a little more quite. She pulls me out of the room and I collapse onto the ground with sobs and cries filling the air around me. "Cameron!" Nash runs over and picks me up and walks me away from the room. I look back and see three more doctors run into the room. "Cam!" I thrash around.

  "Mr. And Mrs. Franta?" Is the last thing I hear before blackness swallows the world around me and I go limp.
