Middle of the night
Taylor's POV

I woke up at a random hour and couldn't go back to sleep with all these thoughts in my head.

I should tell Kairi.. I thought to myself. But maybe Avery wants to be the one to tell him. I'm sure she wouldn't be mad if I did though. I got up anyway and grabbed my phone.

While leaving my room I looked back to make sure she was still asleep. I went out to my front yard and called him.

k: yo

t: kairi..

k: what happened you're using your sad voice

t: mattia and avery are no longer together

k: why what happened? she didn't tell me anything

t: okay so after we left they got into an argument and he was drunk

k: how? there was no liquor

t: well alvaro told avery that someone sneaked some in and he got drunk. but he was yelling at her and before leaving he smacked her and threw the keys at her.

k: are you fucking serious? is she okay? should i go to her room right now?

t: yeah no don't do that. she's sleeping in my bed right now. she told me everything. mattias probably not even gonna remember tonight and wake up so confused bro

k: ion even know what to say honestly. i cant believe i'm hearing this

t: when she told me i was so ready knock him out

k: me too even though i'm short i got good hits

t: she has a big bruise on her left cheek..

k: no matter how drunk a guy gets he should never hit a woman

t: i know and she better not make excuses for him this time

k: i really thought they were gonna be high school sweethearts. i'm kinda crushed too

t: actually same but her health is
more important now more
than ever. like, mentally

k: do you think she's gonna be a different person?

t: i hope it's a good change if she does change

I was on the phone with Kairi for about an hour before heading back to my room.

"What are you doing up?" Natalie asked me from the dark as I walked in.

"Phone call how bout you?"

"Avery was talking in her sleep. She usually doesn't do it so it's weird." She sat down next to her cousin and rubbed her arm to calm her down.
