I hoped Finn wasn't mad at me for not talking to him after the cheating scandal. It was a shitty thing to do even though cheating is a shitty thing to do too. I still should have been there for him during everything he was going through. He was always there for me.

It was early in the morning on Saturday so I decided to get some sleep.

A few hours later we were off the plane and headed to Finn's apartment. Millie knew people who knew people who knew people so we figured out where they lived. It sounds creepy when you put it that way but whatever.

Gaten was bouncing up and down with joy and Noah had a happy smile plastered to his face. I was driving so I just focused on the road but I could tell everyone was excited.

We pulled into the parking lot. Things were quiet. We walked up the stairs to the third floor and to room thirty eight.

When we knocked Finn's brother answered. I looked him up and down and he looked horrible! He had ark circles under his eyes and stub stuck to his chin.

"Nick..." I trailed off looking at him with disgust.

"Hey Caleb and Finn's friends." He greeted waving tiredly at us.

"What the hell happened to you?" Gaten asked abruptly making me look at him and glare. He shrugged and continue to look at Nick for an answer.

"You all should come in. I expect you are all here for Finn." He said and we nodded walking in to the sitting room.

"What's the matter?" Noah asked with a concerned expression. Nick sighed and looked down.

"Recently something has... happened. Thursday our dad showed up yelling shit about calling the cops and something like that. Things got heated and he ended up on top of Finn knocking him out." Nick explained to us and my jaw dropped.

Oh. My. God.

I did this. I did this. I got Finn attacked. Is he okay? Is he DEAD?!

"Is he OK?" I asked with wide eyes. Oh gosh, oh gosh, oh gosh...

"He is in the hospital. I think his jaw was dislocated and they had to do some stitches in a few places. Oh and I think only one broken rib." He told us and I felt broken. Absolutely broken.

I did this, I caused Finn more pain. I was trying to help and I ended up getting Finn in the hospital. What the hell was wrong with me?!

"What hospital? Can we go see him?" Noah questioned with wide eyes similar to mine.

"I can show you guys the way. I was meaning to go visit him today." Nick said and Noah nodded being the only one responsive. Gaten and I were still surprised.

I felt like crying. And I know boys don't cry, at least that's what they say. Should I feel like a wimp for crying? But I did this, I caused Finn more pain and this wasn't the first time. I just hoped he could forgive me.

And I hoped Noah could drive because I don't think I can move out of this position.

I had texted Sadie about the Finn situation and she hadn't read it yet. I'm sure she'd tell Millie. I didn't want her to but I knew she would. I didn't want Millie to be stressed about this too but I thought I should tell them.
