Chapter Twenty

Now You Know How We Feel

Carlos's POV

The last thing I saw was Kameryn's wide eyes as she was shoved over the edge of the building. I couldn't even move. I was frozen in my place as I watched Kameryn get pushed to her death. All I could do was sit on the ground, splattered in blood from the now dead Vivian.

Vivian. She was my childhood best friend and crush. When she moved away, I was crushed. I moved on, but it still hurts sometimes. Now, as I look at her eyes, which are still open, I'm filled with that same feeling of abandonment and hurt that has haunted me for years.

"No!" I hear Amanda scream. I listen to her as her pounding feet come running past me and to the edge of the building. I look at her, then reality finally catches up with my mind: There is no way Kameryn could have survived that fall. Kameryn's dead.

Amanda's POV

Janessa cackling laughter rings out around the rooftop. I turn around to see her slowly backing up off the rooftop and towards the stairs that lead down into the empty building below my feet. Logan is still sitting on the ground, staring at the spot where I now stand and Kameryn once did. Silent tears are streaming down Carlos's face as he looks back and forth between me and Vivian's body.

"I'll kill you." I whisper. My dark brown hair whips around my face as I lift my head and little more and look at Janessa. "I'll kill you!" I roar.

I take off across the rooftop and charge at Janessa. She sprints down the stairs and I follow her down. I follow and listen to the sound of her pounding footsteps as I chase her through the empty hallways of the apartment building in her desperate attempt for a getaway.

Janessa's footsteps stop as I as round another corner and make my way down another hall. My gun is pointed out in front of me as I silently step down the hall. No scary, intense music as I frantically turn, checking each room for any sign of Janessa. The only sound is my heavy, anger breathing and my pounding heartbeat. I reach the end of the hallway and a gust of wind blows through the open window. The window that Janessa used to escape.

I tuck my gun into my boot and walk out the building. I round the building and make my way down the side of it, walking till I reach Kameryn's body.

But I never do.

Erika's POV

Kendall and I help a shivering James into the apartment. Elena, I assume, is still chasing down Ciri, and Amanda, Kameryn, Carlos, Logan, Janessa, and Vivian are no where to be found. Kendall and I found James in the lobby, and he told us what happened. I checked outside for Astoria, but she was gone. Samantha's body is gone, along with all the blood. Astoria must have taken her when she was making her escape.

Samantha would have killed me. I have no doubt that. Amanda is the reason I am alive right now. I don't know how Samantha was killed in our struggle, but I know she is dead and I have the blood stains on me to prove it.

The front door of the apartment flies open. I quickly position my knife in front of me and place myself in front of Kendall and James. Elena enters, shutting the door behind her and locking it. "Ciri got away." She reports. "Hit me good in the head and knocked me out for a good ten minutes. Put away the knife, Erika, because if you haven't figured out, its me."

I slip my knife back into my boot as Kendall bumps me in the shoulder as he goes over to Elena, pulling her into a protecting hug. He kisses the top of his head and mutters something about her being okay. I look at James, who is staring at the door. Like him, I want the rest to walk through the door. I take a seat next to him on the couch and place my hands on top of his ice cold ones. He looks at me and I give him a reassuring smile.

At some point, Elena and Kendall join us on the couch. The minutes soon turn into hours as we wait for the rests safe return. The minutes Carlos, Logan, and Amanda come stumbling through the door is when I finally let out the breath I didn't know I was holding. Carlos and I embrace in the middle of the room.

"I'm sorry." I whisper into his ear. "I'm sorry I got mad at you. Thank god you're okay. Don't ever do that again." Carlos and I pull apart slightly and we look at each other. Then we kiss.

James and Amanda are hugging on the couch. I look at Logan, who is just standing there, watching all of us. And I realize Kameryn isn't here.

"Where's Kameryn?" I ask. Carlos lets out a sob and James, Kendall, and I share a worried glance.

"Where's Kameryn?" I repeat. Amanda takes a deep breathe. "Janessa pushed her off the side of the building." Amanda says.

A gasp escapes me, along with James and Kendall. Logan lets out a sob and sinks to the floor. Carlos rests his head on my shoulder, and I feel his tears begin to stain my shirt.

"Where is her body?" Kendall asks, rubbing Elena's back, who has begun to sob hysterically. I blink back tears that threaten to blind my vision. Elena and I both know what the outcome of this is going to be.

"I couldn't find it." Amanda says. "But there is no way that anybody could survive that fall. Kameryn…Kameryn's dead."

A sob finally escapes me as tears begin to fall. Kameryn…dead. Like Samantha. Two deaths in one night. Two deaths that should have never happened. "Where is Janessa? And what about Vivian?" I ask.

"I shot Vivian and killed her." Amanda reports. "She was going to kill Carlos. I had to do it. Janessa got away. What about the rest?"

"Ciri and Astoria got away too." Elena says, lifting her head off Kendall's shoulder.

"So Kameryn…she's really gone?" I question. "And we don't even have her body to give her the proper burial she deserves?"

"This is my fault." Amanda whispers. "Janessa wanted to make me feel like her, she wanted me to feel loss like her because she believed I killed Samantha. And then I killed Vivian and she pushed Kameryn off the building. I'm the reason Kameryn is dead. I…need some time alone." Amanda stands up and leaves the apartment. James follows her out. Elena leans back into Kendall, as Carlos continues to cry against my shoulder. I shut my eyes as tears leak out from behind my closed lids. Logan is hysterical on the floor, let out giant wheezes and sobs.

And in the dark of the night, we all weep together.
