Chapter 67

I spin on the spot to see the girls jumping on Matts bed, I run over and bellyflop onto the covers. They both shriek with laughter as I begin to tickle them. Their laughs are so cute, so young and innocent, like they really enjoy their childhood, the complete opposite of me.
"Sky Sky stop please" Jaimee screams between giggles, I shake my head and tickle her harder. I only stop when the door flies open.

I sit up to see who it is
"Shawn?" I say confused as he begins to pack up Amy's things "What are you doing?"
"Amy asked me to bring her stuff to the hospital" he says as if I should have known that's what he was doing "so that's what I'm doing." He seems strange, nothing like the Shawn we all know, the Shawn everyone fell in love with: soft, innocent, caring. He's wreckless, care free and worried, very worried.
"Shawn, can you sit for a second?"
"No I can't!" He shouts, he must see that I am taken aback by his tone as he puts everything down and sits of the end of the bed "I'm sorry Sky" he seems tense
"Girls why don't you go and wash your hands after your tacos earlier?" I say, I can sense that he's going to break down and they shouldn't have to see that

"What's up?" I comfort
"Nothing" I raise my eyebrow "it's just, what of she doesn't actually remember me? What if she decides that she likes Matt better?"
"That's not going to happen, anyway, Matt's with me, she knows that"
"That didn't stop her from sleeping with him, you say she knew you liked him, but she did it anyway."
"Shawn! Stop thinking like a crazy person"
"I just, I like her so much and I really don't want her to hurt me, like she did before"
"Why are you thinking about this all of a sudden?"
"Her and Matt have been- nothing!" He quickly changes his mind
"Her and Matt have been what Shawn?"
"Flirting a lot, it's as if I'm not even there, she doesn't talk to me or anything."
"Well" I say trying to cover how hurt and angry I am "flirting is harmless, all that matters is what happens after" I say trying to comfort myself as much as him
"I guess" he sits up straight as if he's had a sudden realisation but is choosing not to say it
"What Shawn?"
"What if- no there's no way"
"Spit it out Shawn, I don't have all day"
"What if they sent me away so they could-you know" I do know, in the back of my mind I'd been thinking it the second Shawn walked through the door
"Well then we go back to the hospital" I stand up and begin to pack Amy's things, Shawn simultaneously does the same just as Jaimee and Skylynn come running in again. I'd forgotten about them, looks like they'll have to come too.

We finish packing Amy's stuff into her thousands of suitcases and I turn to look at the two girls
"Come on girls"
"Where are we going? Skylynn asks
"To find Nash"
"NASHHH" Jaimee screams, she loves him as you can probably tell. I take each of their hands whilst leading them out the door, only to crash into the rest of the boys. All of them but Matt and Taylor.
"Oh hey Sky!" Nash says, I open my mouth to respond but I realise that he wasn't talking to me as he bends down and scoops up Skylynn in his arms
"Nash? Could you possibly look after Jaimee for me? Oh this is Jaimee" I say realising that I hadn't introduced them

He bends down to shake her hand but instead she wraps his arms around his neck, hugging him tightly. I haven't had one of those hugs before.
"Sure I can Skylar" he's calling me Skylar now that Skylynn is here
"Thanks" I say as Shawn nods to the elevator as a way of telling me to hurry up. I smile at the rest of the boys "do you guys know where Matt is?"
"No sorry, we haven't seen him, he never came back up to Taylor's room after you told us Amy was awake"
"Oh right, thanks" I smile and follow Shawn to the elevator door.

-----
We pull up outside and Shawn lifts Amy's bags out of the trunk of his car. I wait until he is ready and we walk inside, to Amy's room, in silence: afraid of what we might find when we get there. We arrive outside Amy's closed door
"This was open when I left" Shawn states. I begin to open the door.
"I'm sure it means nothi-"

"Oh shit"
