Long chapter. Just a heads up! =) enjoyyy.

Carly's P.O.V

I felt rejected. I stormed off to my bunk away from Alex last night and I still haven't came out of it. It's twelve in the afternoon.

I lied curled up in my bunk with my headphones blasting music from my ipod. Every angry song I could find on there I listened to. Suddenly the music stopped and I glanced down at my ipod where it said: LOW BATTERY.

"Fuck." I whispered to myself and took off my headphones.

I still wasn't getting out. We had a day off today which was to my advantage. I heard footsteps past my bunk and then a loud sigh. The footsteps rushed to the front of the bus.

"I don't understand you dude." Jack sighed.

"Look, it's complicated. I don't want to fuck up her life again." Alex spoke up into the silence. There was a certain tone to his voice. It was almost like he didn't even mean what he was saying.

"Oh shut up Alex. You know that once your together with her you will never leave her or hurt her again. You've loved her since the day we met her." Jack's voice thickened and he sounded pissed off.

I heard a loud sigh and this time it was Alex. "I-" He started to speak, but Jack cut him off.

"God dammit Alex! Just be with her! It's not like anyone is going to die!"

A silence crept over the bus and I could tension rising between Alex and Jack even though they were far from me.

"Dude?" Jack asked, concerned.

I couldn't take Alex's shit. I wanted to get up and tell him off like I did last night. I ran out of my bunk and into the front lounge.

Alex looked surprised to see me, but Jack was staring at Alex in shock.

"What's going on?" I asked to both at them. "What is the problem?"

Jack shook his head out of his trance. "Fuck him Alex. We'll sue him."

"What is happening!?!" I yelled. Both Alex and Jack's faces turned to me. "Tell me." I said quietly.

"Leo threatend to kill you if we went out. And he threatend to hurt all of the guys if we called the cops." Alex whispered for no real reason.

I was already on the phone calling the cops.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Alex shouted at me.

I covered the phone "Calling the cops. Jack's right we can sue him."

"For what?"

"For beating the shit out of you, for stalking us and-" I paused before finishing. "and for raping me."

................................................

Alex's P.O.V

I stood there with a dumbfounded expression on my face.

Carly hadn't told the cops she was raped?

She talked into the phone explaining the situation the cops. After about a half hour she hung up and sat on the couch.

I walked straight over to he and sat down next to her. My arm instantly wrapped around her shoulder. I faced her and took a deep breath. "You never told anyone." I whispered quietly.

She nodded her head and inhaled sharply. "I was too afriad. I didn't want to relive the whole exprience by explaining it to someone. I just wanted it to be gone." She looked down at her hands which were intertwined together.

I reached over and grabbed them softly.

"Thank you for trying to save me. I'm sorry I got so mad."

I shook my head. "No. You had a right to get mad. You don't know how hard it was to lie about all those things."

She laughed softly. "There going after Leo now. It will be over soon."

"Good." I replied.

She rested her head on my shoulder. We sat there for a couple of minutes just taking it all in. I wanted it to be like this for the rest of my life.

Suddenly her head popped up with a smile on her face. "The next stop is Maryland right?" She asked, hopefully.

"Yup. And since it's our hometown we have a couple days off there. We can visit your sister."

Her eyes grew wide along with her smile. "You remembered?"

"Of course I did. How could I forget?"

She bit her lip "I don't know."

I stared down at her lips and I knew she was staring at mine. I slowly and carefully leaned in and cupped her face. Her hands found their way to the back of my neck. Our lips met finally and it sent shivers down my spine. Her fingers started to get caught up in my hair while my were on her hips.

I pushed in on her lips harder and carefully slid my tounge into her mouth. I could feel her smile and we continued with the kiss.

"Cough, cough." Somone cleared their throat and me and Carly looked up quickly to find Rian standing there with Kara. "Get a room please. Your love lives are all fucked up."

Carly chuckled while I smiled at Rian. "Thanks Ri."

I grabbed Carly's hand and led her to my bunk.

 We layed there making out for several minutes until Carly broke it off. "Alex I have to ask you something."

"What is it babe?" I asked not really paying attention. I just wanted to get back to kissing her mainly.

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

Her question caught me off guard and I looked up at her and smiled. I was paying attention now. "Holy fuck yes." I yelled and ran out of the bunk leaving Carly there laughing.

I ran into the front lounge where everyone was. "GUESS WHO'S GOT A GIRLFRIEND!?!?!" I screamed at everyone.

"Uhh, Rian?" Jack asked.

"NOPE! ME!" I said pointing to myself. "ME ME ME ME ME ME!!!!"

Carly emerged from the bunk chuckling and came over and hugged me. I took in this moment. Her smile, her laugh, her scent.

I wanted to remember this forever.
