Sandra sat the, with her mouth slightly open in shock, as Andy told her what happened on the bus. How he had walked in on Ashley and Jinxx talking, how he wished he didn't. Sandra's mind barely grasping what Andy was telling her.
"Why," She spoke softly, "Do you know why he said that?" Looking into his eyes, she saw something change, almost a flicker of emotions in his eyes.
"No, I only know that he hates me," Andy spoke, his eyes watering just thinking of the thought, "Why I don't know.." Andy broke off into sobs, not able to finish his sentence. Sandra got up and sat next to him, pulling him into a hug. She felt his body tense and then relax, she sighed at this action. Sandra has always been the for Andy, and never once knew why anyone would want to hurt him. But it always happened whether physically or emotionally, and all she could do is sit there and comfort him. Well now Sandra is tried of just comforting him, tired of watching this little boy get hurt over and over again.
"I'll be right back Andy, I promise." She whispers as she letting's go of the shaking figure. and moves towards the door.

"What?!" Jinxx said loudly.
"Shh, I said I never hated Andy... It.. I.. I was just trying to cover up the fact that I like him. More then a friend. More then a brother... I think I love Andy." Ashley said looking down, ready for the guys to say how horrible and wrong this is. Instead he felt three pairs of arms hugging. Looking up he saw the guys smiling at him. CC was the first to talk.
"I knew it." He said with a huge smile.
"I kinda figured that." Ashley said smiling.
"Dude you didn't have to hide that, we're one big family. No matter what we'll love each other and be there for yall." Jake said playfully punching Ashley.
"Yeah come on Ash. What made you think that we would hate you for this?" Jinxx said looking at him with a small smile.
"I don't know... but it doesn't matter anymore, Andy's mad at me." Ashley spoke sitting down against a wall.
"Don't say that!" Everyone turned to see Sandra outside the door.
"How is he?" Everyone but Ashley asked. Ashley sat there looking at his hands, already knowing the answer.
"I need some air." Ashley said as he got up and moved for the elevator, but a hand stopped him and made him turn around. He was eye and eye with Sandra.
"He needs you right now." Was all she said as she pushed him towards Andy's unlocked door. Leaving the rest for Ashley to do.
Ashley's unsteady head grab the door knob and turned it, entering the room and shutting the door. Sandra slid down the wall, and pulled her legs in.
"The rest is up to him now. Let's hope he does the right thing." She said softly.
"Who? Andy?" Jake asked sitting across from her, Jinxx took his place next to Jake, and CC next to Sandra.
"No, she means Ashley." CC said looking at the ground, Sandra nodding her head.
"Oh." Jake and Jinxx said looking down now, too.
