I squinted my eyes open as I tossed and turned in bed. I chuckled to myself as I found Quinn lying beside me, her hair messily spread on the pillow and her lipstick smeared.
Nudging her arm softly, she opened her eyes and smiled at me.
"What happened yesterday?" She asked groggily.
"We went out for drinks right?" I asked and she shrugged as she sat up in bed.
"Today's our flight too." Quinn responded and I agreed to it with a groan.
I stopped for a second and looked straight up at her.
"Why don't you stay with me?" I asked, making her slightly raise her eyebrows.
"At your place? Yours and Billie's?" She asked and I nodded.
"I'm gonna die from boredom otherwise." I replied and a smile played on her lips.
"Plus, L.A.'s not so far away from Highland Park, so yeah I can stay for a while." She spoke, nodding.
A sudden few knocks on the door interrupted our conversation. I got out from bed and slowly opened the door to see our agent, Mike, standing in the hallway. He quickly glanced at Quinn before chuckling at looking at me.
"When's your flight today?" He asked.
"Actually," I started off, looking down at my phone, "we've to leave in a couple of hours."
"Let's all have one last breakfast together then?" Mike asked, as he clapped his hands.
"That'd be great."
I soon closed the door and turned towards Quinn.
"We'll need to get ready."
I opened my contacts and tapped on Billie's name. Placing the phone on my ear, I paced towards the washroom sink as I waited for her to pick up the call.
After a long time of rhythmic rings, Billie picked up and tiredly answered the phone.
"Did you sleep well?" I asked.
"You think?" She asked, chuckling.
"Well, you can go sleep-" I started off and was quickly interrupted me.
"No, no, it's okay." She spoke, softly yawning.
"Get some sleep my love. You have a show today too, right?" I asked and she hummed in response.
"I'm sorry, but we'll talk soon baby." Billie replied.
"Don't apologize, go get some fucking sleep." I said and the both of us laughed.
"I love you ma. A lot." She spoke into the call and I smiled to myself.
"I love you too." We hung up and I let out a heavy sigh.
I didn't want to be the clingy girlfriend, but I was. The days seemed to go by so slowly and mid-May seemed like light years away.
I tried to brush my thoughts aside as I placed my phone on the marble top and decided to get ready for breakfast.
-
I pulled the chair in closer and rested my forearms on the table.
"Welcome to D'Angelo's. My name is Ross and I'll be your waiter for today." The waiter smiled at us, as he held a pen and notepad in his hands. We soon gave our orders and waited for our food to arrive. "Quinn, you're staying at Willow's, I heard." Mike spoke up, making me smile. "She's obsessed with me, what can I do?" Quinn said jokingly as I placed my hand on my heart, the rest of the group laughing. "Diana, I heard you're organizing a runway in the next few weeks?" I asked and she nodded excitedly. "Yeah, finally!" As we went on with the conversation, my phone chimed and I looked down to see a message from Billie.
baby
i was gonna get some food and thought of texting u : I'm having breakfast w/ everyone actually oh shit, I'll talk later : no no, please. the social side of me is closing I wish I was there baby : I wish u were here too bil :/ I would place my hand on your thigh... : that's where I tell u to stop, there's a group here and then my hand would go further up... : STOP
I cleared my throat, as I looked up to see the rest of them still engaged in their conversation. I didn't even know what they were talking about.
you'd gasp as you feel my fingers...
I gasped as I read her message, covering my mouth. "Everything okay there?" Mike asked me, and I nodded.
Our food soon arrived and I placed my phone on silent. Opening my messages would be the last thing to do at the breakfast table, and keeping that in mind, I went back to my food. - Billie's P.O.V
angel
STOP : you'd gasp as you feel my fingers... Read 11:56 a.m.
I laughed to myself as I knew exactly why she kept the phone away.
I looked up at the clock and huffed as I found nearly an hour to waste. Opening Instagram, I scrolled through it and liked a few posts of various fan accounts. I stopped at a picture of Drew and I which was posted a few hours ago.

"What the actual fuck?" I asked myself as I scrolled through all of the comments. These pictures were old, really old. Why were they resurfacing again? "Are you free?" Finneas asked, as he knocked on the tour bus window. I nodded, as he took a seat beside me on the couch. "What's wrong?" He asked, and I proceeded to show him the posts. "Holy shit." He muttered. "Willow's gonna see this and that's the last thing I fucking want." I groaned, covering my face in frustration. "Hey, it's okay, this is just one of those things that'll come by and pass. This is basically how those companies make money." Finneas said, rubbing my shoulder. "Perfect timing for them." I said sarcastically as I scoffed. "It's just, it's already difficult for the both of us. We barely get to talk and we do, it's like for a few minutes and done. The last thing I want is shit like this to spread and that's exactly what's happening." I said. I hated opening up to others, excluding Finneas that is. He was not just my brother, he's my best friend. He practically knew everything about me at this point, and same way around. "Pictures are not gonna stop anything between you and Willow, and you know that Billie. This is just how the internet is. And the both of you will fight past this, you know that better than I do." He said in a soothing voice and I nodded with a sigh.
