Ace's POV
"Would you calm down" Brad says as I pace his room frantically.
"Two hours Brad, two fucking hours!" Not once has she answered any of my calls, she always does. I've called her over a one hundred times and nothing! She told me to call her and then she doesn't pick up? Something isn't right.
"She might be busy"
"She told me to call her Brad!" I raise my voice.
"Don't raise your fucking voice at me, I'm trying to help"
"You're not helping!"
"Call Ash?" He suggests.
Before I could think I'm already listening to the slow ringing in my ear, nothing. I try again but it puts me straight to voicemail.
"Fuck!"
"He'll be on the phone"
"Ugh!" I grunt.
"What's going on?" Ma walks in, her eyes lock with mine straight away, "What's wrong" she says full of worry.
"Camila isn't picking up" Brad tells her.
"She's a strong girl, I'm sure she's fine" she tries reassuring me.
I sit down on Brad's bed while I try calling again, "Asher, pick the fuck up!" I shout into the phone becoming frustrated.
"Ace, calm down please"
"No! Something's wrong" both Ash and Camila isn't picking up.
"You don't know that!" Brad huffs.
"You don't either!" I stand up needing to pace back and forth again.
"I'm gonna go there if they don't pick up in the next five minutes!" I run my hands through my damp sweaty hair, I haven't showered since I got back.
I know something is wrong, she hasn't texted, she hasn't called. She asked me to call her so why wouldn't she answer and why the fuck isn't Ash picking up.
I call again grunting, "Ace, you're giving me a headache" Brad massages his temples.
"I'm going" I walk past Ma and into my room across the hall.
"You have training tomorrow morning" Brad follows.
"Don't you understand" I turn to him, "My girlfriend isn't fucking answering me, if something happened to her and I'm fucking training it'll be your fault!" I raise me voice again.
"She's probably pissed off with you..again!"
"For what? I haven't done anything" have I?
"She might be mad about Skye"
"Why would she be mad with me?" I confuse as I shove clothes into my backpack.
"I may have told her about you fucking Skye back in school" I turn to him fast.
"Why would you tell her that!?"
"I thought she knew" he shrugs. I told him that shit in confidence on Friday.
I glance over Brads shoulder seeing Ma shake her head and leave to go downstairs. She's probably disappointed hearing about that shit which I highly regret.
"You better be back here..." my phone begins to ring stopping him from continuing his sentence.
I answer reading Asher's name.
"Hello!" I practically shout.
"Hey, what's up?"
What's up! What's fucking up!
"Where have you been?"
"Home, I was on the phone to Jules because Cam didn't make it to Aiden's. They went looking for her and tried calling her for ages but she ended up back here.." he trails off with a sigh.
"Is she okay?" I clear my throat.
"I think so, she locked herself in her room for a while and then came out saying she's going for a bath, she's in there now. She seemed different walking into her room but when she walked out she had a huge smile on her face"
That's weird.
"Where was she?" I ask.
"She didn't say"
"Did you ask?"
"What's with the twenty-one questions?"
"Nothing, just wondering" I lie, "Ma needs me, I'll talk to you later"
"Alright" he says and then hangs up.
I call Camila hoping she'll pick up, she doesn't.
Me: Are you okay? Can you please pick up the call?
I wait a whole minute before texting her again.
Me: Please talk to me! Are you mad with me about Skye? Please answer and I'll explain.
"She answering?"
"Does it look like it?" I growl.
Me: Please baby.
I try calling again but nothing, she might have left her phone in the room but she always take her phone everywhere incase of emergencies.
Me: I'll come down if you don't answer!
Within the next twenty seconds i see the bubbles saying she's typing before I get a response.
Cam: I'm fine, just tired. I'll talk to you later.
What? Talk to me fucking later! I've hardly spoken to her.
Me: Can you pick up the call?
Cam: I'll call you tomorrow.
Me: Camila I swear to god.
I need to hear her voice or see her face to make sure. If not I won't sleep and will worry until I make sure she's okay.
Her name pops up on my screen and I answer immediately.
"Are you okay!?"
"I'm fine" I can hear the water running in the bathtub.
She sounds drained, no tone behind her sweet delicate voice.
"You sure baby?"
She doesn't say anything, "I'm here...always"
"I know, I'm just tired"
"Okay" I say not entirely convinced.
"I'm just in the bath then going to bed, I'll text you tomorrow"
"Okay, I miss you" I whisper, I've relaxed hearing her voice but I'm certain she's not just tried.
"Miss you" she barley says back.
"I love you and uhm..goodnight"
"Love you too" she hangs up.
Too. She's never said that before and she's never said it so full before.
"See, she's fine" Brad says.
Something doesn't seem right.
Is she falling out of love with me?
"Yeah.." i sigh.
Camila's POV
When I ripped my clothes from my body blood all i seen was my underwear covered in blood along with my pitch black leggings, I'm unsure if it's my period or from the assault but I feel like it was too heavy for just my period.
I sit in the scorching hot water feeling nothing but numb. When my cold body touched the roasting water pins and needles took over me for the first time I didn't dip my feet and ease my body in I just sat down allowing it to tingle my lifeless body.
I feel like this is some way of punishment for something I may have done, the lies I've told to my family about being with Ace.
Is this the universe telling me something? I'm getting constant battles and I can't take it anymore, i feel like I've got not more fight in me. If I've done something wrong I just want to know.
I pull my knees to my chest remembering the exact last time, I cried and cried but this time my nightmare became true and I'm all dried from tears. That's all I do is cry and now I'm stuck in the state of numbness.
I stare at the clear water, before laying back breathing in and out slowly and closing my eyes.
"Cam!" Ash loudly knocks on the bathroom door, "I'm bursting for a piss and you've been in for over an hour" I've been staring at the ceiling for that long?
I sit up pulling myself from the now warm water which is edging to coldness. I pull the plug and wrap a towel around my body.
I unlocked the door walking past Ash and down the hall, Ash rushes into the bathroom closing the door.
I pull underwear on and stick a pad to it, I pull a oversized t-shirt over my body before crawling into bed, hoping for a peaceful sleep.

Ace's POV
It's Thursday and I'm driving to see Camila, we've hardly spoke the past three days. She's been off since Monday night so I've decided to have my four last days with her.
We haven't called since that Monday night and we've briefly texted, I just don't know what's wrong and I feel like if I keep asking if she's okay she'll bite my head off.
Asher said he's staying with Ty, he's becoming real close with him and it's worrying. I'm just glad I'll have alone time with Camila if feels like we haven't in a while.
I park the car and take the Burger King bag off the passenger seat, I got her food again just incase she's hungry. I climb the stairs and unlock the door to the apartment.
"Cam?"
"I'm here" I hear her quiet voice say.
I go into the living room seeing her laying down on the couch with a blanket over her. Something is different.
I gasp, "Your hair is back to brown!"
She half smiles, "Yeah, I changed it back" she shrugs.
"When?" I smile sitting beside her and handing her the burger king bag.
She has dark circles under her eyes and her once soft lips look rough as if she's been biting and ripping the skin.
"Tuesday"
"I like it" I missed her natural hair colour.
She glances at me like she's deep in thought before placing the bag onto the coffee table and standing up.
"Where you go-" my words are cut short as she straddles me and places my hands on her hips.
Her lips latch onto mine as she roughly holds my neck in place.
"Woah woah woah, wait" I say breathlessly.
"Why?" Her eyes begin to water.
"You don't want to eat first?"
She shakes her head staring deep into my eyes.
"Are you okay, baby?" I cup her cheeks.
She crashes her rough lips onto mine again tugging at my hair, "Please touch me" her voice soft as she snivels.
What?
I push her away slightly holding her face steady, her eyes are bloodshot as tears fill up ready to fall.
"What's wrong?" I study her face running my thumb over the small scab on her cheekbone.
"Please" her lip trembles.
"What's wrong, please tell me"
"Just please touch me" she pulls me forward flush to her body.
"Camila" I whisper.
"Please" the tear escapes, her fingers are raking through my hair pulling me to her, her lips hovering over mine. "Take it all away, please" she whimpers.
Take what away.
"Please" she begs again before pulling her oversized t-shirt over her head revealing her bare chest.
I softly brush my lips with hers taking away whatever it is she desperately wants away.
She grabs my hands guiding it down below, I slide her underwear to the side and begin rubbing her clit, she moan into mouth digging her nails into the back of my neck.
