Damiars POV

I laid on my bed staring up at the dark ceiling, my earbuds in with Heather by Conan Gray playing.

I felt so bad for yelling at y/n, she didn't deserve that. She probably hated me now.

I was stupid to ever like her though, she likes Kai. It was so obvious to me now, but I didn't want them together. I wanted her so bad.

Honestly I almost thought she liked me back but I guess that time we spent together just meant nothing.

Y/Ns POV

I sat alone against the cold window, staring out at the starry night sky. I stuck my earbuds in and put my playlist on shuffle, Heather by Conan Gray started playing first.

It had gone really quiet a while ago, I didn't know why. I would've thought Damiar would be yelling or destroying things, I'm surprised he didn't come back and yell at me.

I guess I understood why he was mad, me and Kai kissed and they just broke up. Why mad at me though? He probably still liked Kai. That realization made me feel so stupid, I guess I was actually kind of starting to like Damiar.

Kai's POV

I sat against the window in silence, staring up at the beautiful night sky. Yn loved to go star gazing, she'd go out anytime she could just to watch the stars. It was one of the only times she ever seemed genuinely happy and at peace. 

Her eyes sparkled and gleamed like the the ocean on a sunny evening, she was fragile as if she were made of glass. Honey dripped from every word when she spoke. She was beautiful and perfect in every way.

She never hesitated to help anyone, even if she hated them. Animals were no exclusion either, she just loved nature. Sometimes she'd make me pull over in the middle of the road just to save a turtle or something from getting run over.

Everything she did just made me like her even more, I wanted her but I'm pretty sure she didn't like me back at all.

I wondered if I even had a chance with her.. probably not. I sighed and went over back to my bed to lay down.

I thought about how her and Damiar acted around each other, she was so sweet towards him considering all the shit he's put her through. Just from the way they looked at each other it was obvious they liked eachother.

I admit, I did kiss yn to make Damiar jealous and maybe back off but I didn't know he'd lash out like that, I felt so bad.

But why would she even kiss me back? I could never measure up to how amazing she was. I'm not good enough for her..

I was so stupid to like her, she'd never like me back and Damiar would hate both of us so much if we were together. I guess it was better if I just stopped, I had no chance with her...

Y/Ns POV

I just stared out at the sky for what didn't even feel like long but it had been hours now.

I sighed, lightly hopping onto the ground. I wanted to go talk to Damiar and apologize or maybe just talk to Kai. I turned the door handle but the door didn't budge, oh right he locked it.

I laid down and quickly feel asleep, I hadn't even realized how tired I was.

The sun shone brightly through my window, stirring me awake. Did I  leave the blinds open last night? I groaned quietly and tried to hide my face under the covers.

"Y/n, I'm gonna make breakfast if you wanna come downstairs." I heard Damiar say huskily like he'd just woken up. I hummed an ok but just laid there for a while longer.

I remembered everything that happened last night, I guess he wasn't mad anymore. I was mad though, maybe I shouldn't be but I was. He was so quick to assume or just turn the whole situation on me. He literally saw what happened and still said I was the one who kissed Kai.

I still went downstairs though, I was already tired of being stuck in this room though it wasn't even that long.

"Goodmorning." Damiar greeted happily, sure a lot different than last night.

I just shot him a small glare as I walked to the couch. "Is Kai awake?"
I shrugged as I grabbed the remote to turn the tv on.

"The foods done, I'm gonna go see if he's awake." Damiar told me as he walked towards the stairs.

It smelled like french toast or maybe like pancakes? I hopped up off the couch to go see what he'd made, french toast.

I turned to go back to the couch but was instantly met with Damiar. "Holy shit you scared me!" I gasped, backing up a little.

"Sorry," He giggled, gently pushing me out of the way so he could get to the food. "Kai's asleep so it's just us for now." Great.

I just went back to the couch and flicked through shows to watch. Gravity Falls or Star vs The Forces of Evil? "Ooo let's watch gravity falls." Damiar suggested, walking over with both of our plates.

Star vs The Forces of Evil it was. "Well ok." He mumbled, sitting down near me.  Neither of us said anything after that, just ate. I was trying not to talk to him but he was so just..there I guess.

"Are you still mad at me?" Damiar finally asked, setting his empty plate down on the coffee table. I ignored him, grabbing both of our plates to go wash.

"Listen, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lashed out at you like that." He apologized, following me to the sink.

"Wow, everything is all better now." I sneered, rinsing the syrup off of a plate with my hand.

"Well what do you want me to do y/n." He asked, almost sounding annoyed.

"To just leave me alone, or just take me home." I muttered, grabbing the other plate to rinse off.

"No it's too dangerous, we need to move again soon anyway."

I thought for a moment as I felt around the plate with my thumb to make sure everything got rinsed off.

"Thank you for washing the plates." He said quietly.

"Why do we have to keep moving? Who's after us and why?" I asked him after I turned off the water.

"I can't tell you and you know that," Of course he couldn't, he can't tell me anything. "But I need to teach you self defense.." he took a second to think.

"Like what?" I asked a little confused, why did I even need to know?

"How to use a gun, knife, get away from people, fight. If someone comes after you and I'm not here you wouldn't have a chance of getting away." He explained to me, starting to walk away.

"Yeah I do." I argued, following after him. "Oh really?" He stopped in his tracks. "I got away from Caleb so-" Before I even knew what was going on, I was on the ground with him on top of me and a knife pressed against my throat.
