Chapter 4

Previously: I know what I have to do; I have to break up with Ivy and fight to get Reed back.

Reed POV

There were a few things I realised when I woke up this morning:

Everything in my body feels like someone has taken a baseball bat to it.

Noelle was standing over me holding a tray of food.

Last night I told nearly everyone on the island that I'm still in love with my ex boyfriend, who is now going out with my new friend.

I have a new stalker who may or may not have been the one to push me off the boat. Great

"Come on Reed, hurry up and eat, we have to be at the hospital in an hour."

"Thanks for the food Noelle."

"No problem Reed. Anyway it will be the other way round soon, as long as you want to stay in Billings."

"You can't be serious about that, you would rather have Amberly in Billings than me?"

"Of course not, she's out as soon as we get home, but I want to have my fun first."

"Fine. What we doing today?"

Josh POV

Today was the day that I was breaking things off with Ivy and set off to St. Barts to win back Reed. I knew that I needed Noelle on my side through everything, so I was going to have to apologize to her before I saw Reed; which I am going to detest. I don't hate Noelle, me and her just don't really get each other. I don't think she will answer the phone after the things I said yesterday, so I will just text her.

TO: NOELLE

NOELLE, I DIDN'T MEAN WHAT I SAID YESTERDAY ON THE PHONE. I'M SORRY. I AM BREAKING UP WITH IVY TODAY, I'VE REALISED I DON'T LOVE HER. I'VE LOVED REED SINCE THE FIRST TIME I SAW HER. I ALWAYS WILL LOVE HER. I HOPE YOU WILL HELP ME TO WIN HER BACK.

PLEASE RING ME WHEN YOU GET THIS MESSAGE.

FROM: JOSH

I read the text over and pleased with it, sent it. Hopefully I would be on my way to Noelle and Reed later today. As soon as I entered the hospital, I got nervous. I didn't want to hurt Ivy, but I just didn't love her. I only was with her because she was the opposite of Reed. I don't know what I ever saw in her. I'd had so many good times with Reed, but can't think of any good memories with Ivy. We fought a lot when we were alone, but in public we looked as if we were deeply in love. I remember Reed's face the first day she saw us together, it broke my heart. I knew that I wanted and needed to be with Reed. I walked up to Ivy's room and knocked on the door.

"Come in" she called. I sighed and went in and started on the road to win back Reed.

Ivy POV

Josh has been acting strangely the past week, almost as if coming here to see me is a chore or something he really hates. I know he deeply regrets me being in here, he was blaming himself ever since I woke up. But I don't blame him, it was that psycho Sabine's fault. My shoulder was healing well so I don't blame Josh, he couldn't let his ex be shot.

I think it's over between us, I've thought that ever since I became friends with Reed. I can tell that they're both still in love with the other. Although everyone thinks I'm an evil bitch, I'm not. I want Reed and Josh to be happy together. Josh and me weren't meant to be, I think I'm in love with Gage, however crazy that sounds.

There was a knock at the door, I called out "Come in". *It was Josh, his face was serious and he looked as if he hadn't slept at all last night.

"Josh, are you alright?"

"No Ivy, I'm not. Noelle phoned me last night." This got me intrigued, why would Noelle be phoning Josh, they didn't get on at all.

"What happened, is everything ok?"

"There was a group on a yacht and Reed left for some air. Half an hour later they found her floating in the middle of the ocean."

"OMG, is she alright? Is she hurt? What happened?"

"She was fine, I think. Someone pushed her Ivy. It's happening again, someone is trying to kill her."

"Josh I know you still love her, that's why your in such a state isn't it?" His jaw dropped.

"I do still love her Ivy, do you understand?"

"Of course Josh, it's been rocky between us for a while. I think we should stop seeing each other. I know you want to be with Reed."

"Thank you Ivy, is it alright if I go, I'm catching a flight to St Barts tonight so that I can see her?"

"Bye Josh, say Hi to her from me"

He came and kissed me on the cheek and dashed out the room, I laughed and lay back into the hospital bed. I think everything is going to end up alright.
