"So are you two finally... are yall like a thing now?" Jake asked pointing to me and Andy. I spent the night at Andy's house after i showed up and kissed him. Andy had a pretty big house even though he lived by himself. It had two stories with a huge backyard that had a pool and barbeque area. It even had a basketball court. Inside there were about 5 bedrooms, the master being on the second floor, taking most of the house. It was huge. 

They boys decided to come over and see me and i guess CC told them about me and Andy. "Um." I looked at Andy and he just smiled and nodded. "Yes." I smiled back at Andy who had his arm around me. It felt nice to be around Andy in this way finally. I felt comfortable and like i can be myself.  

"Finally!" Ashley said raising his beer for a toast. We all clink our beers and take a swig. 

"What did you tell Chris?" CC asked and my face dropped. I forgot about Chris. Im technically still with him. I never fully broke up with him.

"What about Chris?" I played it off. I dont want to hurt Chris but i loved Andy more than Chris. I dont want to break his heart.

"Did you break up with him before you flew out here?" CC always asks to many questions and i get it. He wants to make sure im ok and that im making the right choices. Thats why i see him as a brother.

"No. He doesnt know anything because hes here in L.A." They were all confused, even Andy. I sighed. "He went to L.A. for some band things. So I hung out with my bandmates and then i came here. He doesnt know anything except i didnt answer the phone." I would have to eventually tell him. Its not like i can stay in L.A. forever. I felt bad because technically im cheating on him and that would hurt him more.

"Yikes." Was all that came from Jinxx before he walked out the kitchen. I know it seems bad but every part of me chose Andy. Ive been running and hiding from the truth. Maybe high school me never really wanted to be with Andy, just dream to be with him and continue to be jealous because i was scared of commitment. I was to afraid to hurt someone but thats what ive been doing for the past 7 years. Thats what im doing now. But the me now wants Andy. Its all that i ever wanted. Perhaps the past seven years was all over nothing. 

"Girl you better talk to him." CC said taking another sip of his beer. I sighed again and slouched down on the counter. Andy took me into a hug and i gladly hugged back. He was a little taller than me as always. I kind of miss his long hair though.

We all drank some more beer getting slightly buzzed and we even played a round of beer pong. I know i said i dont drink much but tonight i want to drink. I dont even care at this point. 

"I say we all go out and bar hop for awhile! To the new and long waited couple!!" Ashley said, not even sounding drunk. Leave it to Ashley to start the party.

"Lets fucking go then!!" I scream. Im ready to have a fun night with no drama. I dont care if i get too drunk or if i get a bad hangover. We all piled in the car with Jinxx driving since he doesnt plan on getting drunk tonight, and he drove us to the first bar of the night. We order a round of shots and we swig them down fast. Andy grabbed my hand and kissed it, taking another shot. I blushed. That date with Chris was nice, and i could tell he really like me but throughout that whole night i was thinking of Andy. 

We took shot after shot before we moved on the the next place. This place had a dance floor and i took Andy's hand and made him dance with me. Being drunk and dancing is one of the most magical things. I grinded against Andy who just snaked his hands around my waist. "Whoooo!!" I shouted really feeling the moment and taking another drink. When we all got tired of dancing we headed to our next bar. It was more of a sports bar so they played sports on the many tvs they had and had gambling tables along with a pool table. We just sat at the bar and drank beer.

"You know i reallllllyyyyy love you Andy!!" I slurred my words and kissed Andy who kissed back and we starting making out, getting sloppy because of how drunk we are.

"Excuse me. Can i sit here?" A guy said tapping on Andy's shoulder and pointing to the seat next to him. Andy pulled away and looked at him and nodded. I quickly looked over to the guy and notice his tattoos. He had so many and they all looked so familiar. I studied the guys face some more and realize that, that man was Chris. I quickly ducked, hiding my face in Andy's shoulder.

"We need to leave." I whisper in his ear then pointed next to him. He looked at the guy and then straight back to me with big eyes, nodding. 

"Lets move this party to the strip club or something man." Andy said getting up. I quickly ducked behind him and walked out with Andy. I felt the adrenaline hit me as we ran to the car. Once me and Andy reached the car we started laughing. 

"WHOOO that was amazing." I was so drunk that anything excited me. The guys caught up with us eventually and we headed to the next bar.

I woke up the next morning with a pounding headache. Andy snored next to me in nothing but his boxers. I was in nothing but my panties. We mustve gotten crazy last night. I grab a shirt i found on the floor and put it on, along with some shorts i found in Andy's drawer before i headed downstairs to make some coffee. 

After i drink at least a couple sips of my coffee i grab my phone which was laying on the counter. I see a text from Chris that read , Good morning baby. Hope you are doing well. I ignored it. I'll call Chris later. Just then my phone rang, and you guessed it, Chris. I guess I'll speak to him now.

"Hey." I said, clearing my voice from the grogginess. 

"Hey there." He said sounding happy. Guilt hit my stomach. 

"What's up?" My voice was still strained.

"How did you just wake up? Your three hours ahead." I didnt answer. I couldnt tell him i was in L.A. "Anyway. I saw Andy drunk making out with a girl last night. I guess hes over you." My heart stopped. He almost saw me and that wouldve ended badly. 

"Yeah." I squeaked out. Come on Charlie you have to tell him.

"Anyway i was calling to say i'll be back later tonight." I froze. Now i have to tell him. 

"Cool." Was all i said. My brain was saying something else my mouth was. I couldnt handle this conversation anymore. "Chris im not home. Im at Alice's house and i'll be here for a couple days. We are working on music." I lied. Andy appeared in the kitchen doorway, leaning against the door frame. 

"Oh. Well then i'll see you when you get home." We said our goodbyes and hung up. I sighed. This is going to be harder than i thought.
