《I'm A Krieger Harris》Chapter Two

- Paige's POV -
We just touched down in New York City for camp and apparently all of our flights are getting here around the same time so we're having to wait for everyone to get here before leaving to go to the hotel.
I have the hood up my hoodie up and this hoodie has like one of those like pull up mask thingies so that's hiding my bruised neck from where Caleb nearly killed me yesterday. I feel fine now besides it hurts if I touch my neck or turn my head fast.
As we're walking towards the designated area of where we're supposed to go and wait, I heard my name from behind me.
"Paige!" I turn around and see Mal coming towards me.
(Pretend Mal is sixteen as well)
"Mal!" I say and we hug when she gets to me. When we pull apart, we do our quick handshake before we continue walking to the area. Only the DC gang, North Carolina, Orlando, and Houston gang was here. So we're gonna be waiting for just a little bit. Mal and I are in a corner sitting on the floor since I always do that.
"Hey, if you don't mind me asking Paige, but why is your cheek bruised? And your neck?" I physically tense up at all the events replaying. Even the ones from the past. "Don't tell anyone. Mom and mama, and Alex already know but please don't." I whisper, looking towards the floor, also trying to move my mask thingy to hide the bruises on my neck. "You know I won't, Pai." (A/n - pronounced like pay) She says. "Caleb was abusive and he raped me alot. He always used protection though. But he tried killing me at school yesterday morning. I woke up in the hospital then not long after we went home. Now we're here." I say without emotion. I look up and over to see Mal's mouth open and her just frozen. "Mal?" I ask. She doesn't move or anything. "Pai, I'm sorry." She says. "I would've had to kill him for hurting you. I want to kill him." She says. "No! No no it's not worth it. He's not worth going to jail over." I say and she laughs. "Well you are. You're my best friend and I would do anything for you." She says and smiles at me. I give a soft smile back and lay my head on her shoulder.

Once everyone was here an hour later, we headed to the hotel and got settled in. Even though I'm not a player, I got roomed with Mal which I always usually get roomed with her.
"I'm headed down to the meeting. I'll be back up in a bit." She says. "Alright. I'm probably still going to be right here." I mine into my pillow. That earns a laugh from her and I hear the door open and shut. I then set an alarm for 4:30 so I can take a nap. It's only 1:24 right now so I'll be fine.
What feels like two minutes later, I feel ice water be poured over me and I immediately jump up.
"What the fuck?!" I yell. Kelley and Pinoe's eyes widen then turn to run out of my room. I'm guessing our teammates heard me because they all popped their heads out. I still had my shoes on from where I was halfway on the bed.
"What the hell did y'all do?!" Carli yells after us and I know half the team is recording and following us. "Something they shouldn't have!" I yelled back. I see three people come around the corner and scream at Kelley and Pinoe, scaring the hell out of them so I slow down. It looked like Allie, Mom, and Sam.
"Why the hell did you pour ice water on me?" I snap. They look really confused. "What? Why are you all confused your the ones who poured water on me!" I say. Pinoe, Kelley, Allie, and Sam point at my neck and Mom just gives me a small frown.
My hoodie isn't hiding the bruises anymore. Shit.
I back up a few steps slowly before turning around to see the rest of the team behind me confused as hell too. I then quickly pull my hood pack up and walk through the silence with my head down back towards Mal and I's room. "Paige wait!" Everyone yelled. "Girls d-" I heard Mama try to say but I stopped and turned back to face them. "Long story short, I've been through hell of alot and almost died yesterday." I say, causing all of their jaws to drop except for Mal, Alex, and moms. "I'm fine. Just don't pour fucking ice water on me." I say specifically to Kelley and Pinoe before heading into the room.
