"It was great meeting you guys" I smiled.
"We're gonna be here for another two days, how bout we all meet up somewhere" Brian suggested. My face lit up and I glanced at Nick who looked away.
"Yeah, I'd love that" I quipped. Steve laughed.
"Give us a call and let us know" he said. Brian nodded.
"Sure thing" Brian answered. They all gave me a kiss on the cheek and said bye before we made our way to the car.
The next morning I was awoken by the sound of someone walking up my stairs. It took me a few minutes to register it to be Steve who had a copy of my keys for emergencies. Not long after he knocked once on the door and barged in.
"Wake up sleepyhead" he cheerfully cried and swung open my curtains. I groaned and hid myself under the covers.
"Guess who called" Steve said as he pulled the sheets away from my face.
"I'm going to confiscate those keys off you" I groaned.
"We have dinner with the guys you love so much tonight" he announced. I pulled the sheets back over me and continued to groan.
"Wake up woman" he cried. I ignored him and shut my eyes. I heard him leave the room only he came back a few minutes later. Throwing the sheets off me he began splashing cold water over my body. I yelped and yelled as I jumped out of the bed. Steve began laughing as I shot him a dirty look.
"Brian rang and we arranged to meet at that Italian restaurant downtown tonight" he said.
"You woke me up for that" I complained.
"Yeah well, I'm being happy for you... I'm sounding gay cause of you" he answered. I rolled my eyes and walked to the bathroom slamming the door behind me.
"Happy for what?" I mumbled to myself.
"It's not if Nick likes me"
The day surprisingly went by quickly and the dinner date with the Backstreet Boys was almost an hour away. I got dressed wearing my white hipsters, a long sleeve grey top with a black dragon symbol printed on the front. My hair was up as usual and I applied the only make-up I ever wore, my lip balm. Pushing my dresser's drawer shut I caught sight of a piece of paper that had fallen on the ground. I bent over and picked it up, recognising the writing a little cry escaped my lips.
Cortney,
I don't know if this letter will ever get to you, although I hope it does. I don't know how to write what I'm feeling down... baby, you were the best thing that ever happened to me. I don't know how I'm going to continue living this world without you beside me. I want to feel the pain I caused you and I believe I am. I'll understand if you still don't want to be with me or even be near me so I want to say goodbye. No matter what... my heart will always stay with you.
Andy
I fell back against the wall and sunk down as I began crying uncontrollably.
"Damn you, damn you" I spluttered.
"Why now when I was doing fine" I cried and continued sobbing. Two arms wrapped around me hugging me close.
"Steve" I whispered.
"I was doing fine Steve, I was doing fine" I reassured. Larissa walked in with a glass of water. Steve pulled me away and took the glass off Larissa and handed it to me.
"Here drink some" he said looking at me in concern. The glass shook as I placed it on my mouth sipping the water. The never-ending tears turned into a tear as I slowly settled down. Steve caught sight of the paper holding my pain and put it in his pocket. I used the little amount of energy I hadn't used while crying to pick myself off the floor. Brushing the remaining tears away from my eyes I made my way to the bathroom. The cold water hit my face sending a refreshing chill down my back, I wiped my face glanced at the mirror and walked out.
"Are you sure you still want to come?" Steve asked. I slowly nodded. He grabbed my bag and shut the door before leading me down the stairs and out the door as Larissa trailed behind locking everything.
