A/N: Hola Amigos! I know I said I'd be updating once a week but I've been really busy being back at school and all. Sorry Please review means a lot to me and maybe some answers soon? Frey out. x x x
CAMMIE'S POV
My lungs felt like they were on fire. As soon as Zach hung up on Nick we all sprinted back to my house as fast as we could. I was pretty sure by the time we reached my front door Liz was about to pass out, she fell over about five times on our journey home.
"Guys, be careful, for all we know this could be a trap." Zach cautions. I hadn't thought about that at all, oh my god what if it was?
Slowly, Macey open the front door and we all sneak in. We hear a crash coming from the kitchen and Liz jumps the height of Grant in fright. Zach protectively picks up an umbrella and we all shuffle through silently.
"Guys, what you doin'?" Nick asks loudly from behind us.
"Fuck, Nick! You scared the shit of us! We could've hurt you y'know!? Jesus Christ!" Grant exclaims. Nick examines us up and down.
"Oh yeah, umbrellas are just so deadly these days, you never know when they're about to pop open, mass murders they are!" Nick says sarcastically.
"Shut up." Zach mutters.
"Are you all ok?" Jonas asks from stepping behind Nick.
"Well we're here aren't we?" Macey asks obviously.
"Right sorry." Jonas apologises going a bit red.
"It's okay." Liz blushes. Man, just go out already! "What was so important that you called us here anyway?" Liz asks curiously. I had kind of forgotten about that too.
"Oh yeah, you guys need to see this." Nick states only serious in his voice. He beckons us to follow. Nick leads us to the kitchen where the previously smashed patio doors (which I had replaced with my food money so I'm now living of everyone else at the moment) were, well…how to put this? Smashed.
"What?! I just had these replaced! Should I give them a key or something cause these door aren't cheap!" I shout frustrated. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy.
"Cams, maybe this isn't the time to be angry about the patio doors? Someone out there is trying to hurt us, so maybe we should be concentrating on that rather than French doors?" Liz reasons. Geez I sounded spoilt and selfish.
"Look guys, I'm sorry, it's just that-
"Cammie we get it. You don't have to explain." Zach says sounding understanding while the others nod.
"Thanks guys."
"No probs, but the doors wasn't really the problem." Nick tells, while holding up a sheet of paper.
"What does it say?" Bex asks timidly.
Jonas begins reading.
"So you didn't get killed, that's very unfortunate, but all of this could've been avoided. If you're wondering, yes we do have your friend Rebecca but I've not seen her yet so I'm assuming she's fine…at the moment. If you want to save your friend all you have to do is bring the thing we want to the old warehouse tonight at 8:00. If you tell anyone, well little Rebecca here won't see you or anyone else ever again. See you at 8:00 and don't be late! Catherine G, CoC."
"Well I know I've never met her but this Catherine is a real bitch!" Nick declares. Grant screams in anger and starts pulling at his hair.
"Grant honey, it's ok, everything's going to be ok." Macey soothes.
"NO! It's not! They've got BEX! Bex is like the strongest out of all of us, now that she's gone we have no chance! What the hell is going on here cause right now we are all gonna die!" Grant bellows. Liz whimpers and hides behind Jo, Macey and Nick huddle together and Zach just stares at the ground in shame.
Everyone was silent. All you could hear was Grant heavy breathing from his rant. Once again it was Liz who breaks the silence.
"Well, what are we gonna do?" She asks quietly.
"What we were gonna do from the start. Fight." I reply.
GRANT'S POV
It was about half six and we're all, once again, gathered round Cammie's living room.
"So let's go through from the beginning, Cammie what was your Dad's job?" Jo asks inquisitively. We all knew it hurt her to talk about her dad like this, but Bex's life depended on this. Hell, all our lives depended on this.
"He was a marine." She replied sadly. "He's usually away, so it was just me and mum, but he came back. That's why we were at the airport. We just picked him up from Afghanistan." She paused for a second or two. "I remember how happy I was when it was that morning. I had a calendar where I would cross off the days, I hadn't seen him in six months so it was really exciting. We had a banner and everything." She laughed softly, everyone in the room felt the emotion she was. It was heart-wrenching to be honest with you.
"We took a walk in Central Park, all of us. Mum away to get ice-cream, me and Dad were standing on the bridge watching kids chasing around, parents sitting on blankets, old couples walking hand-in-hand, it was like the perfect movie. Then all I heard was this ear-piercing gun shot." It was as if she was in a trance now. Recalling everything that happened on the worst day of her life. She wasn't looking at anyone just gazing into space.
"Cammie, you don't have to do this." Zach says calmly, but she just continues.
"He fell to ground like a rag doll. It felt like I fell with him, there was this impact that just made me drop. I put pressure on the shot but it was in placed in his stomach. I tried, god I tried so hard..." Tears were streaming down her cheek.
"Cam, it's okay, just stop." Zach commands loudly, but she just carries on in her trance.
"He tried soothing me, telling me it was ok, but it wasn't. I heard people gathering round shouting, calling the police, trying to help, but there was no use. Just as someone pulled on my arm he whispered to me 'Jacqueline Olsson'. Then he just-"
"CAMMIE STOP!" Zach roars. Macey and Liz were crying but everyone just freezes and stares at Zach. Cammie woke from her trance thingy.
"Just stop." He says gaining control of himself again. Nobody moved, nobody spoke, nobody breathed.
"I need to get some air." Zach announces while stepping out of the living room and outside.
