Adam's POV
I don't know how to feel. I mean I'm angry, definitely. Betrayed? Absolutely. But can I really be angry? She is my soulmate, but she doesn't know that. I've never told her that. And we weren't in any relationship. So can I really be angry when she has sex with other people?
Quinn thinks we don't know why he is so angry. He doesn't even realize it himself, and I'm not going to enlighten him. In the beginning we all could see he deliberately stayed cold towards her. He thinks he needs to keep his reputation intact of being the one with the most sex partners. And that he doesn't get attached.
He's only fooling himself, and I feel sorry for him. I know the others feel the same as me. We're in the same boat. I really thought she is the one. The one for us. This way we can stay together for the rest of our lives. I still love her, and that's why it hurts so much.
I shake my head and continue packing my suitcase. Mr. Lee called yesterday and our flight was supposed to be late last night. But Nadja never got home, and it has me worried a bit. And I get angry at myself for worrying about her. I pack all of my belongings and make a last sweep through the house for strayed possessions.
I don't meet anyone and they probably are licking their wounds in their rooms. Once I have everything packed I heave my suitcase down and set it in the hallway. I make myself comfortable on a couch and wait for the others.
Xavier's POV
Packing takes my focus away from the pain. I can hear Jay muttering angry behind me, but nothing I could say will.make him feel better. How can I help him when I feel so down myself. I thought she was more genuine than what she did. Did she pay us? As Quinn says. Does all of it feel played?
I just don't know. Once I'm done I go to the bathroom, I relieve myself and wash my hands and I see Quinn's tooth rush so I grab it and walk to his room. I knock before I open it and I find Tyler sitting on his bed, staring off into space while Quinn is throwing all of their belongings into their suitcases.
"Here," I say thrusting the toothbrush into his hand. I'm still angry at him. He was so mean and hurtful to her. I know she wasn't truthful, but I still love her. I leave and get back to my room to get my suitcase and walk down. I see Adam is already down here. I dump my suitcase and join him waiting for the others.
Jay's POV
I don't know what to think. The bruise from that guy has me doubting Quinn's words. I wish I could talk to her. But she isn't back yet and she doesn't answer her phone. As he was yelling at her yesterday I studied her reaction and it felt genuine to me. She really looked horrified when she saw the picture.
Of course, if I were to point this out to the others they would probably say she was acting. But I just don't know, and the wish for her to get back becomes stronger and stronger. I finish packing and as I'm about to leave the room I look back one last time and leave with a sad smile.
I walk down and drop my suitcase next to the others and join Adam and Xavier.
Kaiden's POV
I don't want to leave. But Nadja isn't here to explain. I didn't say anything yesterday because Quinn wouldn't believe her anyway. I understand how he feel, even if he himself doesn't understand.
I love her, and it hurts to think she would be capable of this. Did she really fuck someone else those two days she was away. Why would she be away for two days? She told us maybe one night, not two. Is she really that manipulative? As my thought run through my mind I get angrier and angrier and In the end I decide it's better to forget and give up on her.
I wipe the last tears I'll ever cry for her off my cheeks and close my suitcase. Now I want to get out of here as soon as possible and I leave Vere and walk down the stairs.
My suitcase get added to the pile and I drop down next to Xavier and lay my head on his shoulder.
Vere's POV
As Kaiden leaves the room I'm still stalling packing. I open the drawer and slowly get everything transferred to the suitcase. I repeat the process for every drawer I had in use and when all are empty I feel really sad. I really had a great time, living here with the others and Nadja.
I'm not worried though. I know she kicked us out but we'll meet again. I'm sure of it. I don't think Nadja 'cheated' on us. She is too open about everything, so she would have told us if she were to entertain herself somewhere else. So I don't believe Jimin, but arguing doesn't help us. It would only get him more convinced he is right.
After closing my suitcase I sink down on the bed and just sit. I'm worried something has happened to Nadja. She ran out yesterday, and isn't back yet. Maybe she knows we're still here and hasn't returned because of that.
I heave a deep breath and lug my heavy suitcase out of the room. The way down is accompanied by a lot of banging. Finally downstairs I release the suitcase and sit down watching the others. Tyler and Quinn aren't down yet and the others look sullen and tired and I say nothing and wait with the rest.
Tyler's POV
I'm dead. I just feel so dead inside. She has taken it all, and there is nothing left to give. Quinn, my best friend who tries to mask the pain with anger, is currently packing for the both of us.
I don't have it in me to care. He is in as pain as I am, and I chuckle. How the hell can I feel the pain when I feel dead? Or is the dead feeling the pain.
When Quinn showed me the picture I didn't want to believe it, but it was unmistakably her. That tattoo is only on one body. One I've had the pleasure of knowing intimately. And thinking about it has fresh tears leak from my eyes and I don't wipe them away, but let them fall where they will.
The tattoo glowed when I saw it for the first time, in the cave. Even though I'm in pain, I file that memory safely away. It is still precious to me. It's where she realized I love her. I saw it in her eyes just before she looked down.
Quinn is almost done, and I need to pee, so I leave him and use the toilet for one last time. I loved living here, with her. She was so free and open and to learn it was all an act. I shake my head and get back to my room. Well it's not my room anymore and the tears flow again.
As I enter he closes my suitcase and hands it to me. He doesn't look at me. I take it and head down. I join the others after putting my suitcase with the rest.
Quinn's POV
I'm so angry I can't think straight. The others blame me for being too harsh, but I don't feel that way. I feel so betrayed, all.those whispered words of missing me. Missing us hurts now when I think about it.
I'm alone in the room and as no one can see me I let the emotions go. What comes bubbling out is pure unadulterated anger. I grab the last of my belongings and possessions and throw them into my suitcase. Normally I would pack it neatly, but now I don't care.
I slam.the lid shut and lock it and lift it off the bed. I can't wait to get out of here. The memories are to painful. No matter where I look, all I see is Nadja. I basically run down the stairs and drop.my suitcase with the rest and join the others.
"Have you called Mike yet?" I ask Adam. He shakes his head as he gets his phone and dials Mike.
Mike's POV
This morning's phone call has me on edge. It was the hospital. Apparently Nadja had a car accident. When I arrived at the hospital they told me she has a skull fracture, nine broken bones and some internal bleeding. She is stable now and in no immediate danger.
She is in a coma, and the doctor told me that's a good thing. It will give her body real time to heal without her jeopardizing it by moving. Especially her skull, and her brain that is swollen because of the fracture.
As she was lying there, paley white like a ghost. Still like she was dead. And her beautiful face marred with fresh wounds. The tears came and I fell on the chair, grabbing her hand and muttering she needed to come back to me.
As I was leaving the hospital I got a call from Adam. They needed a ride to the airport and it made me suspicious. That is where I'm headed now. I don't understand why Nadja was where she was to get in a car accident.
But I suspect the seven men who are staying with her. Since they moved in she hasn't talked to me much, and she is my best friend. And I miss her. She even neglected Lindsy. And they were real close before they moved in. And now Lindsy is in the states and doesn't even know Nadja is in the hospital.
As I drive on to her driveway, the seven get out, led by an eager Quinn. The others trudge slowly after him. He opens the door and gets in after dumping the suitcase in the trunk. The others do the same. When everyone is in the car, I drive away.
The mood is gloomy and I try to get them to interact, but nobody bites. Halfway to the airport I'm fed up and address Adam head on who's in the passenger seat. I can see the others brooding in the rear view mirror.
"What happened? Why is everyone so down? Where is Nadja?" And at the last question I can see Adam's face contort. When I look in the mirror again I see similar faces.
"Nithing happened. Nadja just isn't who we thought she was." And he looks out the window and I grind my teeth in anger. Nadja is not who they thought she was. What does that even mean?
I keep pestering them but nobody responds and when we finally arrive at the airport I'm glad they have to leave my car. I don't know how to feel.
Something happened between them and Nadja and it looks like I need to wait for Nadja to wake up to know the whole story. I bid them a safe journey and drive away once the last person is out of the car.
Third POV
The seven boys head inside the terminal.and proceed to check in so they can get rid of their suitcases. After check in they proceed through security and find their gate. And now the long waiting and most doze off. One stays awake to make sure they don't miss their flight. Mr. Lee was angry they missed the last one and the boy doesn't think he will be as lenient as he is now.
They need to start prepping for their comeback.
To be continued.
