Roxanne POV
"What are you doing here"Nick stopped playing immediately he saw me.
"I...."Wait a minute why am I stuttering I have to be strong.
"I heard noises so I came to check it out"I said
"Leave"He said.
I'm very sure he's the coldest in the group why is he like this exactly
"I was going to I didn't plan on staying here with you "I said and turned to leave but I felt someone holding my neck brutally it was him.
"Hey now you listen to me I'm not Kai nor Zach that you speak to any how"He said
"Hey let me go "I said and he pushed me to the ground
"Leave now "He said .I stood up and faced him.
"You'll push everyone in your life away if you keep acting this way"I said and walked out.

I came out of Xavion's car and looked at the building In front of me .
"You live here"I said
"Yeah "he said shutting the door we went in and went into the elevator . His condo was large I couldn't believe it ,I mean his father is Dylan hawkins so I believe it.
"So you haven't gone home since"I said
"I have and I do but only once a month"He said
"So are you close with your family"I said
"Yeah I'm very close ,I have a step sister and she's really lovely"He said walking to the kitchen.
"Are you hungry"He said
"Are you gonna cook"I said
"Yeah "I said
"No I'm not hungry then"I joked.
"Hey you don't believe I have culinary skills"he Said
"ok fine make anything you want to make for me"I said
"Will you help me in the kitchen "He said and I went over .
"So do you want to tell me why you and Kai stopped being friends"I decided to start a conversation.
"It's a long story "He said
"Then make it short"I said
"Please just tell me we're friends aren't we"I said
"Fine ok... See Kai , Nick ,Zach and I used to be friends till we got In trouble because of me I persuaded them to go on drugs with me "He said
"Drugs why will you do that"I said
"Roxie I'm going through a lot that you don't know see at that time I wasn't in a good term with my father so I to let my pain go by doing drugs ,So the day they joined me we got caught.Dad bailed me out but Kai father didn't he wanted him to stay in prison to learn a lesson. The others got out leaving only Kai. I pleaded with my dad to free him and he did but Kai didn't know I did that .So since then we've been enemies"He explained
"Aren't you going to tell him"I asked
"I will ,but I guess he's still angry at me "He said.
"Of course he would but saying sorry doesn't make you a fool it only means you're mature"I said he looked at me confused like he hasn't heard that saying before.
"What"I said
"You're right "He said.
"The sauce Is ready "He said
We sat down to have dinner Spaghetti and what Xavion calls his special sauce with meat balls. I tasted it and he was looking at me waiting for my reaction.
"It's good it's so good"I said
"Ah I told you "he said
"Where'd you learn to cook"I said
"My step mom "he Said
"Wow "I said.
After dinner I did the dishes only because I lost to Xavion in rock,paper, scissors.But he also assisted me .
"Where's the restroom"I asked .
"Over there "He said directing me and I went in. After I was done I washed my hands looking at the mirror Infront of me I don't know what made me open it but I did and I saw some pills there . Are this all for Xavion is he sick . I closed it and walked out of the restroom silently and picked up my bag.
"You ready"He said
"For what"I asked
"I told you I want to show you something didn't I "He said
"oh...ok"I said and we went out into the elevator again. it stopped at the roof top and we came out I looked around I saw a telescope.
"Is that for you"I asked
"Yeah it is "he said
"Wanna take a look"he asked
"Sure why not"I said and I looked into the eyepiece of the telescope and saw the stars.
"It's so beautiful"I said
"I know it is "He said
"What do you want to show me "I asked him
"Actually I wanted to tell you something"He said
"Why here then"I said
"I just like it here , Roxie you've been like the best friend I never had aside from Kai and you know that"He said
"Yeah"I said
"Look I don't want you to be sad but I'm leaving "He said
"To where"I said
"To country Z , I've been planning on moving because of the incident with Kai and also to finish my study there"He said
"Study why did you then start it here"I said
"Actually I told you that was a punishment besides I only wanted to get close to Kai so I can apologize "He said
"But you haven't"I said
"Yeah I plan on "He said scratching the back of his head making him look cute I really wanted to cry because I didn't want him to leave he's the only friend I have .
"Look I want you to stay strong and don't let Kai bully you "He said
"When are you leaving "I said
"After the field trip"He answered and I looked down and tears flowed from my eyes
"Hey don't be sad"he said raising my head up and I hugged him.
"Don't leave Xavion "I said
"I have to "he said
