"Summer, listen. Kellin tried to kiss you." Finn said, anger lining his voice. I was taken by surprise and looked at Kellin.

"Is that true?" I asked. He couldn't possibly have done that. I mean, why? He had no reason. Finn must be making stuff up, right?

He quickly looked away from me and blushed. Okay, that wasn't what I was expecting. Not at all.

"...Yes." He answered. My eyes instantly widened as I stated at him, my mouth agape.

"But-But why?" I stuttered, too stunned. He was my best friend! Best friends don't kiss best friends. That's just...weird.

"I only did that because-because..." He trailed off.

Finn raised an eyebrow, "Because?" He said, obviously pissed off.

"Because I like you Summer." Kellin blurted out.Whoa there. That's new. Wait why am I calm? I should be freaking out. I'm not though. God, this is confusing.

"Oh." Was all I court manage to say. I mean, I was completely surprised and not expecting that at all but... It didn't seem as weird as it should.

"What?!"Finn exclaimed a little louder and angrier than me. Why was he mad? If anything, I should be. Which I wasn't. So everyone should just go back to normal. Okay? Okay.

"Look, I'm sorry. It was a bad move, I know. But you have no reason to get mad at me." Kellin looked at Finn with a pointed look. "It's Summer who should be mad." Exactly!!

"She's mine." Finn almost shouted. My head snapped to look at him. Excuse him! I wasn't anyone's. As I thought about it more, I grew angrier and angrier. I wasn't his. We weren't even dating! Even if we were, it was extremely infuriating to hear him claim me as his. I'm not an object.

"I'm not yours Finn." I said quietly.

Finn looked at me now, surprised. "What?"

"I said, I'm not yours." I snapped, glaring at him.

"But Summer, you told me that you liked me! And I like you too!" He protested. Tears were streaming down my face now. I know it was stupid of me to cry. This whole situation was stupid. And to be honest, it was really messing me up.

He told me he wasn't 'ready' to date. And I respected that. But he voiding just go hit and cold on me. He can't just say stuff like that.

"I know your not ready to date and I respect that." I told him, voicing my thoughts. "But going around threatening to hurt anybody who shows interest in me and saying that I'm 'yours'... Well, you have no right Finn! Technically were not going out, so Kellin had all the rights in this world to kiss me!" I choked out between sobs. Finn looked surprised and hurt was written across his face. I didn't care.

Kellin took a step closer to me and put an arm around me, "Summer, it's okay." He cooed while rubbing my arm comfortingly. I saw Finn's jaw clench but he kept his mouth shut. He probably thought that Kellin was making a move on me now that I said that but I knew he wasn't. I told him all about how I felt and this was just him trying to make me feel better. He understood.

"Just take me back to my room." I whispered to Kellin.

The walk back to the cabins were excruciating. Silence all around. And not to mention the obvious hostility between Finn and Kellin.

When we finally got there, I slipped into my cabin silently and fell asleep.
Fun let me know before I did that he would go and tell everyone that he found us. I felt a bit bad about leaving them worried but I was just so tired.
