○ chapter fifty five ○
Cole's P.O.V
"She walked out." Hayden says as he walks into my room. I sigh and run my hands through my hair, tilting my head back slightly.
I knew she would. I mean, she would choose Alec over me any day. I still don't even know what I did to piss Alec off. I mean, I saw him at the park sitting by himself and he looked upset so what was I suppose to do? Leave him to be upset? No.
Now, Winter is angry at me for some fucking reason. I swear, I fuck everything up. I just need someone to tell me what I did and I'll fix it. I just need someone to speak up since they are obviously hiding the reason why the two are angry at me.
Can someone just please tell me?

Sam's P.O.V
"Oh for fuck sake!" I yell, gripping at my hair. I made her angry again! I can't do anything right.
"I'm going to look for her." I say but Amanda shakes her head.
"One thing I know about Winter is don't disturb her when she is upset. Never." Amanda says and I sigh, walking around the lounge room.
"Well I can't just sit here while she walks around looking for Alec. It's nearly midnight!" I say, closing my eyes tight to try and calm myself down.
Amanda puts her hand on my shoulder and smiles slightly. "She'll be fine."
I hope so.

Winter's P.O.V
"Alec, where are you?" I whisper to myself, walking down the street. I sigh and stop at the end of the street.
Where would Alec go? If he is hurting that bad about Cassidy, he might go to her house? Or if he wants to forget, he might go to a bar. Ugh, this is going to be a rough night.
Well, let's try the bar first.
●●●
"I'm sorry but you can't come in." The security guard says as he blocks the doorway. I groan and throw my hands in the air.
"I'll only be in there for a few minutes, I just need to see if my friend is here!" I say completely frustrated. The guy shakes his head and I close my eyes, trying to hold in my anger.
"Please... I just need to-"
"I said no." The guy says and I frown, walking away and down the alley.
Just like in the books, alleys were actually a pretty scary place to be in.
There were people in a corner smoking and laughing, there was a group of men that look really drunk, there was a girl who looks around my age and was spinning in circles with a bottle of alcohol in her hand...
See? Scary.
As I hurriedly walk past the groups of people, I turn left so that I was on the pathway and when I look to see if anyone was following me, I sigh seeing that it was clear.
I saw a guy sitting on the steps of a large building. It looks like an apartment but I'm not sure. I take a closer look at the guy and my eyes widen when I see the person I have been looking for all night.
"Alec?"
●●●
Alec's P.O.V
"Alec?" I hear a familiar voice say and I look to my right and see a girl who had blonde hair. I immediately thought of Winter but I shrug it off.
It can't be her.
"Alec?" The girl says again and I sigh. "Yes?" I ask, looking at the girl who was looking so unsure about something. As the girl came closer, my vision became clearer and my eyes widen.
"Winter?" I ask and stand up. Winter smiles and attacks me into a hug but I don't hug her back. I was just too shocked.
"What are you doing here?"
"I came here to look for you." Winter says, still not letting go of me. I hold on to her shoulders and pull her back, looking into her eyes.
"You have to go." I say and Winter raises an eyebrow.
"Wha-"
A blue car pulls up and we both look at it. I immediately groan and push Winter behind me. Shit.
"Long time no see, aye?" I hear Danny say and I nod as I watch him get out of the car. He walks towards me and smirks.
"Who is this?" Danny asks and I shrug.
"A friend." I say and Danny licks his lips.
"She's hot." Danny says and I hear Winter gasp. Danny looks over my shoulder and grins at Winter.
"Hey baby, you wanna come with me for the night?" Danny asks, a sly grin on his face. I push Danny back and I hear Winter scowl.
"I'll pass." Winter says and I glare at her as if I was telling her to be quiet without actually saying anything. I look back at Danny and I sigh.
"I just need to know where Cassidy is." I say, changing the subject. Danny rolls his eyes and points in the back of his car.
"You kidnapped her?" I ask and Danny shrugs.
"She wouldn't come with so I had to drug her-"
"Your a fucking spastic, Danny." I shake my head and point to the trunk.
"Go on. Get her out." I say and Danny moves to the back of his car and unlocks it. The trunk opens and I watch as Cassidy gets out, sticky tape over her mouth.
"Typical." I hear Winter mutter and I shake my head slightly as her word. I focus my attention on Cassidy as she stumbles over to me. She mumbles something but I can't hear her because of the sticky tape that was over her mouth.
"This won't hurt a bit, okay?" I say and grip at the end of the sticky tape and rip it off. Cassidy groans and turns around to slap Danny in the face.
"I can't believe my own brother would kidnap me!" Cassidy says and lands her hand on Danny's cheek. Danny groans and steps back from his sister.
"Jeez woman these days!" Danny complains but Cassidy doesn't pay no mind to her brother and turns to me.
"I'm here. What do you want." Cassidy says and I sigh, holding onto her cheeks.
"You. All I want is you, Cassidy." I say and peck her lips. She looks at me blankly before removing my hands from her face and walks up the stairs.
"Come inside if you must." Cassidy says before opening the door and walking in. I follow and Winter walks behind me. Danny trails behind Winter and closes the door.
I have a feeling that something is going to go wrong tonight.
●●●
Winter's P.O.V
Its so awkward. Danny is constantly looking at me and touching my neck and Cassidy and Alec won't stop fidgeting.
"Stop doing that, Danny." Cassidy says as her head snaps to her brother. Danny rolls his eyes and slumps in his chair. I thank her and she gives me a smile.
"So, your Alec's friend?" Cassidy asks and I nod.
"Sure am." I say and Alec smiles at me. I don't know why he smiled but I smile back at him. Cassidy places her hands on her thighs and looks back at Alec.
"Can I talk to you in the kitchen for a second?" Alec stands up and follows her. Before Cassidy enters the kitchen, she turns around and points at Danny.
"Touch her and I'll break every one of your fingers." Cassidy says and Danny sticks up the finger. I smile at her and she winks at me.
Cassidy seems like a good person, no wonder Alec loves her.
●●●
Cassidy's P.O.V
"Why did you want me?" I ask and Alec sighs before resting his hand on the counter.
"I need to ask you a few things." Alec says and I nod, waiting for him to continue.
"Are you with Cole?" Alec asks. From the years I knew Alec, he was never the type of person to beat around the bush especially with things so serious.
"N-No." I say, confused at his question.
"Then why has he been staying here? A boy and girl can't live under one house and not keep each other's hands to themselves." Alec frowns and I furrow my eyebrows.
"Alec, I'm not with him."
"Well I'm missing something here." Alec says and I take in a deep breath.
"Okay, Cole and I did sleep together but-" Alec groans while covering his face with his hands. "-it only happened because we were drunk!" I say quickly. Alec runs his hands through his hair before cursing.
"Really Cassidy? Was it really because you both were drunk?" Alec asks and I nod.
"Don't lie to me." Alec says, his eyes glaring into mine.
"Okay! I was drunk and you know how I get when I'm drunk. I'm... I'm all over the place!" I say, trying to hide in my tears. Alec's fists clench and I can't help but step back.
"He took advantage of you while you were drunk?" Alec asks slowly and I don't answer. Alec breathes in a sharp breath and sighs.
He grabs my face and kisses me, just like before but more passionate. I can't help but lean into the kiss and savor the taste of his lips. Alec breaks the kiss and smiles.
"You still love me." Alec says and I bite my lip. Alec kisses my forehead and hugs me.
"I'll be back, okay? I have to... do something." Alec says and my eyes widen.
"Don't hurt Cole. It wasn't his fault!" I say but Alec smirks.
"I can't promise that." Alec says and before I can say anything, he calls Winter and I hear the door shut. I lean my head on the counter and groan.
"Shit!"

Sam's P.O.V
"I can't handle this anymore." I groan and Amanda sighs while shoving another piece of chocolate in her mouth.
"Patience." Amanda says and she holds a block of chocolate in front of my face. "You want some?" She asks and I push her hand away.
"How can you eat chocolate at a time like this?" I ask out of frustration.
"Its comfort food." Amanda shrugs and eat another block. I roll my eyes and sigh.
"Of course." I mutter. When everything when silent I hear footsteps walking up to the house and talking. Amanda and I immediately jump up and run to the door. I open the door and there stood Alec and Winter.
"Move." Alec says and I instantly move out of his way. I really didn't want to mess with Alec when he was like this. We may all be bad boys but we don't always have to show it. Alec liked to keep his inner bad guy inside and be that caring boy but when Alec is pissed off, no one gets in his way. I mean, he is a black belt in karate while the rest of us just learned out fighting skills either from street fighting or if we really wanted to boost up our skills, we would go to Alec.
God, he nearly knocked me out with one swing of his leg!
Amanda follows Alec up the stairs and I look at Winter but she walks past me and follows the two.
"Hey-" Winter turns around and puts her hand up. We stay quiet for a few seconds until she points upstairs.
"Alec... he is going to kill Cole!" Winter quickly blurts before rushing upstairs. My eyes widen and I follow after her.
Ah shit!

Winter's P.O.V
"Cole! Get your fucking ass out that door right now!" Alec screams, banging on Cole's door repeatedly.
I walk up to Alec and place my hand on his shoulder. His eyes snap to mine and I sigh. "Please... please don't do this." I beg him but Alec shakes his head.
"He deserves this." Alec mutters before banging on his door again. After a few more kicks and punches to Cole's door, the door slowly opens. I step back in horror when I see that Cole looks really pissed.
"Yes?" Cole says through gritted teeth. Then it all happened so quickly.
Alec grabs Cole's collar and drags him out of his room and throws him onto the floor. This is when Alec straddles Cole and starts to punch him in his face, stomach... Basically everywhere he could hit. Cole grabs Alec's hands and tries to stop him but Alec decides to headbutt Cole hard which made Cole's head hit the ground.
"Oh fuck," Cole mutters. Alec places his hands on Cole's throat and holds them there.
"Did you take advantage of Cassidy when she was drunk?" Alec spits and Cole shakes his head weakly. Alec pushes his hands down on Cole's throat and shakes his head.
"Wrong answer." Alec says, a smirk on his face. Alec continues to strangle him until his face starts to change colour and this is when Hayden and Sam rush to Alec and try to pull him off.
"Alec, your going to KILL him!" Hayden shouts but Alec doesn't let go.
"Would Cassidy really want this?" Cole tries to say but this made Alec push harder on his throat. I let out a scream at the scene in front of me.
That one bad thought starts to flood my head and I close my eyes tight.
Cole is going to die if Alec doesn't let go. Cole is going to die if Alec doesn't let go. Cole is going to die if Alec doesn't let go.
"GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF HIM!" I scream. Alec turns to me and his face softens. This is when Sam and Hayden pull Alec off Cole and Cole starts to breath again.
"Did you, Cole?" Alec asks, his tone still low and dangerous. Cole doesn't move at all and thats when I knew he did. Alec also knew too which causes him to try and run to Cole but Sam and Hayden hold him back.
"It was one night..." Cole manages to say and Alec's jaw tightens.
"Doesn't change anything." Alec says and Cole nods.
"I know I know and I'm so sorry... Really Alec, I am." Cole sighs and Alec does too.
"I believe you but that still doesn't change the fact I still hate you for doing that." Alec says and I smile at the two.
"Hug." I say and all heads turn to me. I shrug, still smiling.
"It was worth a try." I say and Amanda shakes her head, a smile starting to form on her lips too.
"No no, you two are hugging. Right here, right now." Amanda says and the two shake their heads.
"Please?" We both say at the same time and Alec groans before standing up. Cole does the same and Sam pushes Alec towards Cole and Hayden does the pushes Cole towards Alec.
When they end up hugging, we all smile at the two.
"I don't know about anyone else but this really looks like a wedding." Amanda says with a chuckle and I laugh when Alec and Cole immediately let go of each other and walk into their rooms.
"Amanda... I hate you." I hear Alec say and Cole agrees with him.
"I love you both so very much too!" Amanda shouts before walking off with Hayden into his bedroom.
I look at Sam and smile at him when I see him holding his arms out for me. I walk towards him and hug him tight.
"Can you do me a favor?" Sam asks and I look up at him with a confused smile.
"Depends what it is."
"Don't swear ever again." Sam says and I laugh at his words.
"Why?" I ask.
"Because I like you being the cute, innocent girlfriend and me being the big bad wolf." Sam smirks and I shake my head.
"You'll never be the big bad wolf."
"Wanna test that theory?" Sam asks and before I could say anything, Sam lifts me up in the air and throws me over his shoulder.
What really shocked me was when his hand landed on my butt.
"Sam!" I squeal and Sam laughs as he carries me to his room.
"Oh shut up, you like it." Sam says as he does it again. I shake my head laughing and Sam puts me down on his bed.
"I'm going to sleep." I say with a yawn and Sam nods.
"Goodnight." Sam says and kisses me on the forehead before walking out of the room. I call his name and his head pops into my view.
"Where are you going?" I ask him and Sam places a finger on his lips.
"Secret." Sam says before he disappears again. I laugh and close my eyes as I feel my body relaxing.
Weirdo.
