The guy points his gun at us. I slowly lay mine on the ground and one of the boys confiscates it, he gives me a smile when he bends over to pick it. Austin stares at him as he backs away. The main guy scans us and makes us stand up.
"Get out of here." I laugh in his face and dust off my pants.
"Get out? We were here first, buddy." I say, stepping towards him. He pokes his gun into my ribs. "Go ahead, shoot me!" I yell. "We have worked way to damn hard for this to happen! We have all been through hell! Cause that's what this earth is turning into to! If you're really gonna do it, it would be a favor!" I yell in his face. His gun drops and I step back. He respectfully nods his head to me and pushes his group up the stairs.
Aria pats me on the back.
"Good job." She smiles at me, then follows the group up into the living room. I wait in the room for a moment, just standing and waiting for something to happen, but nothing does, so I follow the group of boys.

I saw how that guy looked at Firess, and I saw how she reacted! I hate that. Do you know how long I have wanted her to look at ME like that? Huh, no you don't. If you did, you would want to kill him.

Firess's P.O.V
•••
I sit on the couch, as the man told me to do, along with Austin, Aria, and Rainy. Allyson stands as he circles us. I just stare into the empty fire pit, remembering the guys smile as he picked up my gun, and Austin's face when he saw me smile back. We can all admit that we think we love someone, but when your young like this, you're love will die.
The boy who picked up my gun keeps smiling at me, and glancing and staring. I start to feel uncomfortable after a long while, so I lay my head on Austin's shoulder. His body relaxes and soothes itself. I smile at the blond headed boy one more time before I tap Austin on the shoulder.
"Can you make him stop staring? I'm starting to get worried." He nods his head.
"Excuse me sir!" He yells, I slightly hit him in the arm, a signal that that was too loud. He nods again. "Can you stop staring at her?" The boy just laughs, falling to the ground and laughing as hard as he can, losing and catching his breath.
"Do you even remember me?" I'm startled when he says that. I look to him again. His hair blond, his shiny blue eyes, the way he kept laughing and rolling on the ground.
I close my eyes let out a huge laugh.
"Oh my gosh!" I know who this is. I jump up off the couch and run for him. I wrap my hands around his warm body, and he comforts me with his. I hear Austin let out a sigh, but I don't care. I pull away from him.
"Jason, where the heck have you been?"
