Athena's POV

It's oddly comfortable in here, this place reminds me of home to much. The old burning fire smell, the rugged down carpet with tiny stains on, it was the cherry on top of my bright memories of home.

I take a large breathe in, filling up my lungs with the overwhelming air in the room, it's perfect to me.

"sorry about the carpet, we were going to clean it" Tyler glances at Liam with Judgmental eyes.

I sit up in alert, I forgot I was around people. Tyler must of caught me starring, I wish I could tell him no I love it but that would be weird coming from my mouth. I don't want to sound mean really I don't but I rather tell a little white lie then the hurtful truth.

"Yeah it looks kinda gross" I give a disgusted look at the floor, trying to make sure what I said sounded true. Tyler's face looks upset, I feel bad for him I didn't want him to get so hurt about it. I look down at his hands, their beat up with nasty busies and blood stains.

What the Fuck!

"what is that?" I point to his hands, but before he can answer my question, I slide over by him and get a closer look. I gently take his hand, rage fills me up like luke warm water fills up a kitchen sick.

" I know, their pretty amazing don't you think?" Liam says like he was important to me. He should know I don't give a shit about a fuckstick.

That's it, holly shit i'm a genius!

"nobody was talking to you fuckstick"

"wow is that nickname for me, that just tells me you like me more"

"ugh your so full of yourself"

"can't help it shorty, i'm just to sexy"

"Liam"

" yes shorty?"

"shut the fuck up"

Tyler pulls his hand away from me, I look at him in surprise. His bright sharp navy blue eyes stare at me blank. He sits up from the couch and walks out slamming the door behind him so fast I barley saw him do it. I look at Liam for answers but all I get is a helpless shrug from the idiot himself.

Why was Tyler acting like that, all I was doing was talking to Liam? What if he's jealous, I thought about this for a long time and maybe its true?

"Hey liam?"

"Hey shorty?"

"Do you and Tyler care for each other?"

"I guess you can call it that?"

"Do you know why he is acting so weird?"

"yes, Its because of me..."

"So Tyler is your boyfriend, I only have one question for you...when is the wedding?"

This got Julie's attention fast, she starts laughing so hard she begins to snort. Her head flings towards me, with a lazy smile

"You poor child, they're not gay!" She pushes her body at the end of the couch trying to get close to me but, not wanting to get up.

"Hey if that's your way dodging the fact you're in love with me so be it" Liam looks me with a devil smile, like he just won a fight and he knows it.

"Whatever, I was just asking a question"

"It's okay, ask all the questions...about me" Liam leans forward, a little too close.

"Hey bitches, im here too" Julie shouts out, making both of our heads turn towards her.

"I'm bored, what should we do?" I lay back in the beanbag.

"We should go skinny dippy in the lake!"

"Shut up liam, and hell no"

Julie looks at me for a long time, she's in deep thought like she is trying to figure out what she wants to say, I just return her stare.

"I.. I want to tell you guys something... I can trust you guys right?" Julie starts playing with the rim of her shirt.

I have a feeling it's about what happened that night when I found her crying in the corner of our room.

"Sure shortcake"

"Yeah, you can tell me anything" I give her my brightest smile I can find in me.

"I want to get out of here"

We both sit there puzzled, so she continues to speak.

"I have created a plan, and im 100 percent sure I can do it... I just need your help...please" Julie voice is uncertain.

"Hell yeah, I've only been here for 3 weeks and this place sucks" giving my best fake emotion.

This is my one way ticket out of here to find Cloe, looks like I won't have to put work in it.

I turn towards Liam to see what he thinks. He is just staring at the wall with a blank face. I tilt my head to get a better look at his face, when there's a voice that causes me to turn.

"Sorry about that, im back" Tyler walks in without knowing what going on. Liam gets up and walks over to him in the middle of this small room. He pats his shoulder and just smiles at him.

"Looks like your not the only one in wonderland" then he walks towards the door, he opens it and right before he walks out he says.

"Don't bring me into your mess, if you guys want to do something stupid, do it but leave my ass out of it"

Then he slams the door so hard, some of the books on the table fall and shack. I start to shiver, I feel a tear coming in. Liam's actions remind me of a old horrible memory. I rap my arms around me, and rock back and forth.

Tyler notices me, he leans down to my level, he puts his hand on my back and makes little circles with his fingers.

"Shhh...its okay"

God there he goes again, thinking im weak. I hate it. I swat his hand away and sit next to Julie on the couch, leaving Tyler by himself puzzled.

"Now Julie what's your plan"

She gives a checky smile.

"Okay first we get...

Honestly im to lazy to finish that sentence
Figure it out in the next chapter

Yes I know it's short
I have been sick for that last couple weeks
