[Olivia's POV]

"Fine. But you can't hold me up here forever!" I replied.

"I can do my best." Liam said with a smile.

"Hey Mani, you holding Sophia hostage also?" I yelled over to Mani.

"Yep!" Mani replied with a laugh.

"Hey Sophia hold this." I said while handing her the trophy.

"Alright." Sophia said while taking the trophy.

I twisted my legs around so I was only on one of Liam's shoulders and I jumped down. Sophia tossed me the trophy and did the same thing.

"Aw you guys ruined it." Liam winned.

"Sucks to be you." I replied.

"I wouldn't say that." Mani said with a smirk.

"Run." Was all Sophia said before breaking into a sprint.

I followed her and we ran out of the gym with the guys right behind us. 

"My car c'mon!" I yelled to Sophia.

We ran over to my car and I drove us to the small woods that are near the school. I parked and we ran to the campsite and ran into an empty cabin.

"Well that was something." Sophia said.

"Yeah. They'll be here soon though. I saw them following us." I replied.

"Oh well. How's your knee?" 

"It's fine. Little sore but not distracting."

Sophia nodded and looked out the window of the cabin, "Well the guys are running this way."

I laughed a little, "It's fine. I still can't believe you said yes to Mani."

"Yeah...I can't either..." Sophia replied.

The boys soon were pounding on the door so I opened it and laughed at them as they panted on the doorstep, "Alright get in here you two."

"You guys really had to come all the way out here?" Liam said.

"I just got in my car and drove. I didn't realize I was bringing us here at first. I was just driving." 

"Alright, well how about we go anywhere but here. We don't know who this cabin is rented to." Sophia said.

"Well..." I mumbled.

"Olivia, what do you mean 'Well...'" Mani asks imitating my voice.

"First of all, I don't sound like that. Second, I may or may not have rented this place out for if my parents don't get to pay my charges fast enough." I replied.

"This is your safe house? Cabin? Thing?" They all start yelling at how I shouldn't hide in a cabin where a lot of people come, and also that I shouldn't even have a cabin, blah blah blah.

"Yeah I get it. I'm stupid to have this. But sometimes I don't feel like going to juvie." I say cutting them off.

"Still you should use it for something different." Liam said.

"Fine. How about we have a weekly camping trip? Every Saturday we will come here and be in the outdoors. There is a private beach for renters to use close by and we can explore the woods a little more. I'm sure there are things we could discover." I said slightly annoyed.

"Good idea actually. Let me look around real fast." Sophia replied.

She walked out of the room and went into some of the other rooms. I already knew this thing inside and out so I just sat down on the couch.

"Two bedrooms, one with a set of bunk beds and one with a king sized bed, full bath, decent sized kitchen with mani appliances, and this little living room with plenty of seating and a nice little tv." I say as Sophia comes out of the bathroom about to say the same thing.

"Wow. How often do you come here?" Liam asks.

"I come here on the weekends when I'm bored. I have a guitar hidden in the back of the cabin that I like to play. I usually come here to get my mind off of things and just work on songs for the band." I say while I look through the tv channels.

"You have a guitar here? Can you play for us?" Mani asks before sitting down on a chair next to the couch.

Soon all three of them are almost begging for me to go get my guitar and I roll my eyes and look at them, "Fine. Just stop begging please."

 As they cheer for their accomplishment I get up and head into the kitchen. I go back to the painting that came with the cabin and I took it down. I put in the code for the safe and I opened it and grabbed my guitar. Once I pulled it out I closed the safe and locked it again and placed the painting back up.

As I turned around I had all three of them sitting in chairs just staring at me. "Wow, just stare at me, that's not weird or creepy at all." 

"Yeah, yeah who cares? Let's hear something!" Sophia exclaims.

I grabbed a chair and sat down in front of them. I started to play the guitar and I started to sing.

"First things first

I'ma say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of the way that things have been, oh ooh
The way that things have been, oh ooh
Second thing second
Don't you tell me what you think that I can be
I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea, oh ooh
The master of my sea, oh ooh


I was broken from a young age
Taking my sulking to the masses
Write down my poems for the few
That looked at me, took to me, shook to me, feeling me
Singing from heartache from the pain
Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain
Seeing the beauty through the


You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
(Pain, pain)
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
(Pain)
Oh let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
(Pain)
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer

Third things third
Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that you've heard has turned your spirit to a dove, oh ooh
Your spirit up above, oh ooh


I was choking in the crowd
Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
'Til it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like

You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
(Pain, pain)
You break me down, you built me up, believer, believer
(Pain)
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
(Pain)
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer

Last things last
By the grace of the fire and the flames
You're the face of the future, the blood in my veins, oh ooh
The blood in my veins, oh ooh
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
'Til it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like

You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
(Pain, pain)
You break me down, you built me up, believer, believer
(Pain)
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
(Pain)
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
"

I finished the last few chords and looked up at Liam, Mani, and Sophia.

They all smiled and gave me a little standing ovation.
