Chapter 9

Lauren's POV

I have to talk to Tyler. Last night I was pretty sure he took his meds but now it's seems like he isn't. He wants Kaylie but Kaylie is with Austin and that could really piss him off. Nothing would make him more pissed than something taken away from him. I should just talk to him about this and everything will be fine. I rushed to Tyler's cabin and saw Tyler walking out and he was probably headed out to do the chores.

"Tyler!" I yelled.

"Cos, what's up?"

"Have you been taking your meds?" I told him straightforward.

"What? Of course I have. Why ask now?"

"I was supposed to take care of you, it's my job since I'm family but I feel bad for not checking up on you these few days. I'm sorry," I lied.

"It's alright, Lo, I know you didn't mean to forget but really I have been taking my meds."

Alright. It's either he's lying or he's telling the truth. Remember Tyler, truth hurts but lies are worst.

Tyler's POV

Why would she ask about my meds now? I'm pretty sure it's not because it's out of guilt. It's about Payson's theory building up. It's all started off with Payson. That smart bitch, I should never have brought her here. She should have just stayed at home or I wished I told the doctor to kill her. If I killed her, Lauren and I wouldn't have this conversation now. But I can't get off track, what's done have been done and now its time to go forward. I have to make sure that Lauren and Payson doesn't get to Kaylie. Kaylie, after all, is the only prize I wanted if it means killing Payson and Lauren on the way.

Lauren's POV

After I talked to Tyler I was unsure of what to do next so I had to talk to Payson. Only Payson understands this whole situation and she knows everything but it hasn't been proven yet. Mostly Kaylie, she doesn't believe all of this because of her crush on Tyler. Tyler had been out of rehab for 1 month, or so he said. I saw Payson doing her laundry and I rushed over to her side and prepared myself for what's going to happen next.

"I asked Tyler if he's been taking his meds and he said he is."

"You know he's lying right?" Payson pointed it out.

"Yes, I realized that but what will we do?"

"Well we're going to go to his cabin at night while the bonfire is on."

"Okay, where will we meet?" I asked.

"At your cabin, it's nearer to his."

"Done deal."

We talked about how we're going to do it but I can't make Payson deal with my family issues; so I decided I'd do it myself.

Tyler's POV

I was in my cabin with Drew and James and I was thinking about how to keep Lauren and Payson out of my way. James and Drew don't know what happened with me and what happened this morning with Lauren. I should tell them but I don't want to back out of my plan. They can't back out because they owe me one. Breaking out of the rehab was my idea and my plan and it worked. Here we are in Loakai. Now they owe their lives to me, they signed their lives to me when they walked out of rehab with me.

"This morning Lauren talked to me about my meds."

"It's fine because you've been taking your meds," James told me.

"Actually I haven't. I've been throwing my meds in the bin for years."

"What? Why?" Drew asked.

"Because I don't need them. See, look, I'm not obsessed!"

"Maybe not now but you will be. You were put in rehab for a reason," James was lecturing me?

"No. I don't want to be lectured. I need you both to help me get rid of Payson and Lauren."

"Your cousin? Why?" Drew asked.

"Kaylie's more important to me."

"Family is more important!" Drew yelled at me.

Drew? Yelling? At me? No.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go and do our chores."

We all left the cabin and headed to do our chores.

Lauren's POV

One more hour till I have to meet Payson but then I saw Tyler and his friends walk out of the cabin and it hit me. I should do it now and not wait for Payson. This is my chance to prove that Tyler isn't taking his meds or prove that Tyler is taking his meds. I don't know, I need to find out myself.

I ran to the porch and opened the door. I walked in and saw his clothes on the ground and god. What is that smell? It's like something died in here. What is it? I looked underneath the bed and saw some food that has probably been left there for weeks. That's disgusting.

I went through his drawers and everything. Went through his closet and nothing. I don't see any meds or anything. I walked into his bathroom and opened his sink drawer, still no meds. I walked to his backpack and looked through. There was the bottle of meds but no pills inside. Where is it? Did he drink it or did he just pour it all out? If he did then it should be in the bin, right?

I looked through his bins and nothing. Then where is it? Let's see…TV drama. Usually when they do drugs and try to get rid of them, what do they do? Flush it down? No trace then. That's it! They flush the drugs, pills and meds down the toilet to get rid of the tracks.

I'll just keep looking.

Tyler's POV

"Hey, James. Dude, we forgot our shovel outside my cabin."

"Oh yeah, we have to dig and nothing to dig with…"

"Well let's go and get it then, Ty," James suggested.

We both walked to the cabin and saw the door was opened. Something was not right and if someone realized that I didn't take my meds and is sneaking around my room to prove it then they are so dead. We looked at each other and James went around the back to get our shovels. I told him to follow my lead and don't let the sneaker get away no matter who it is.

We walked in and I saw Lauren in my bathroom looking around. I walked in when she walked back into the bedroom. I stopped before she does something stupid and said, "What are you doing?"

"Ty, what are you doing?"

"Don't turn it around," I warned her.

"I didn't believe you when you said you were taking your meds so I wanted to check it out," she confessed.

"Did you find anything you need?"

"No."

"Good, now what?" I asked again.

"Are you taking your meds or not?" she asked me again.

"Honestly?" she nodded, "No."

"I knew it! Why?"

"I don't think I need it!" I yelled.

"Really? Do you see yourself now? I can't believe you're obsessing over Kaylie!"

James was standing by the door and I was signally him with my eyes to come in.

"I'm not! I love Kaylie!" I screamed distracting her.

"You might love Kaylie but you're obsession took over and is controlling you."

"Maybe but I won't let you get away and tell everyone about it," I warned.

"Excuse me? I'm your cousin and family. Blood related. You couldn't hurt me. I know you won't."

"Blood related? Doesn't mean anything to me. Whoever get in my way, even family, will pay!"

"You couldn't possibly hurt me. I took care of you, we're best friends."

"Watch me."

I nodded to James and he hit my sweet cousin on her head making her unconscious. Done and done. One down, one more to go.
