-ANDY'S POV-

That girl. That damn girl. I just can't take my eyes off of her, she is a simple kind of beauty but for me, she is still one of the most wonderful girls that I've ever met.

She is kind, sweet, funny and caring, yeah I've talked to her just for a few hours but I also checked her profile: she has highlight stories of the Black Lives Matter movement, LGBTQ+, every value that I believe in too, that explains why I think she is caring.

It's been a while since I felt in this way but I can't stop thinking about her, not in an obsessive way, I just wanna know her more.

I can't follow her back or like her posts or anything like that, because my fans will go crazy and start questioning who she is and I don't want her to be in this mess, not at the moment.

Furthermore, I'm sure she is not the person who wants to be courted with likes, comments and whatever.

That's what is on my mind while I'm walking to reach Matty and Amy, two of my best mates that were here lately when I needed them the most, it's thank to them if I'm not completely lost at the moment, to be honest.

The band was my biggest dream that I had finally succeeded into, losing that really made me wonder what my purpose is now; the fans were amazing in this situation.

The ones who will always be there for me want me to continue my career as a solo artist but it's really hard for me at the moment to decide what to do, I don't think I have enough strength to do it on my own.

I'm mad and disappointed, I really thought that we would have fight till the end, but I was the only one who didn't want to give up and now there was nothing left for me to fight for.

Matty and Amy saw me going through all of this shit and they were by my side, we actually enjoy streaming on Twitch, that platform is making me feel myself again, we built a beautiful community there with lots of people that will be by my side whenever I'll decide what to do with my music career.

Seeing Abby listening to me and apparently appreciating what she was listening to made me wanna do a cover again, I haven't posted it in a while so maybe that is not a bad decision.

That's why I've asked Amy to film me in a park near my house covering 'Eyes Off you by Prettymuch' and then we can watch the Greatest Showman all of us three together for the million times.

-ABBY'S POV

"He posted a cover" I hear Emily saying while jumping on the couch next to me, "I don't wanna see him" I reply pushing her phone away, "of course you want cmon don't be silly, give him a chance and if he will blow it then he's just stupid", Bianca says and then Kylie adds "it's time to push your fears away and do as you always tell us to, take the risk for once" and for last Emily says "we'll be here through everything, now just listen to his beautiful voice".

I look at them trying not to smile while I say "I hate you.." and then I play his cover and that song expresses exactly how I am feeling in this moment: I can't stop thinking about him and those blue eyes.

After liking the post, I send it to Brooke, a girl that is studying music here and that always comes to the bar, she's really sweet and lovely and we become friends easily, even if we're both introverts.

She immediately replays "he is talking about yoouuu and he seems to be beautiful and cute as you told me".

Everyone is now trying to convince me to not listen to my paranoic side and just see what will happen; maybe they are all right and for once I can just stop being afraid of everything because I don't really know what will happen until I try.

Thinking about that I haven't realized that I have a notification from Instagram on my phone, sure as hell that it will be Brooke again I open it but I notice that was actually Andy.

So I start panicking and I draw Emily's attention that starts screaming when she notices the notification "ANDY WROTE TO ABBY, GIRLS COME HERE NOW" I laugh a bit but I'm really anxious, I wasn't expecting that...

Fovvs: <<Hey beautiful, sorry to bother you, I just wanted to tell you that I can't follow you back, my fans will go crazy and start stalking you to understand who you are... This is the bad part of having them with me constantly, someone is too much sometimes...>>

Abby:<< Hey Fovvsy don't worry I understand that thank you for letting me know, I saw them commenting your last post they are so supportive, yeah maybe someone is a bit exaggerated but that's part of all, I guess>>

Fovvs: << Yeah I'm very grateful for them despite all... so did you enjoy the cover? Btw fovvsy is new but I like it 😉 >>

Abby: << The cover was beautiful, you're not so bad after all and yeah fovvsy is a mix of andy and fovvs , I like it >>

And then the conversation goes on for what was like 4 hours till I have to go to sleep because tomorrow I have to go to the lessons.

Abby: <<It was nice talking to you, but I have to go to the uni tomorrow, so.. hope you'll have a lovely sleep, talk to you tomorrow if you want..>>

Fovvs: << I'll try to sleep but I never sleep ahahah, I'll play a bit of Fall Guys. Of course I want, good night beautiful, see you soon 😘 >>

Abby: << One day I wanna see you play this game that you're so good at...>>

Fovvs: << Don't make fun of me I'm actually a pro and I have proof to show that>>

Abby: << Show me everything the next time that you'll come to the bar then ☺️, goodnight fovvsy >>
*liked*

I say goodnight also to my besties, to Julia and to Brooke and I go to sleep with a smile on my face, thanks to the wonderful friends of mine that are here with me now and thanks to the lovely Andy, that doesn't know it but he's making me feel alive again after a long time.

-ANDY'S POV-

I went live earlier today because I wanted to talk to her for a bit and I don't mind having done that.

We actually talked ‪till midnight‬ about everything and nothing and it makes me feel so good  to know there's someone who really wants to listen to all the stupid things that I have to say, because yeah I actually like to talk a lot.

I call Matty and Amy to update them of the events of tonight and to play some Fall Guys; Amy leaves us after half an hour not before telling me that she is really glad to see me happy again.

Then me and Matty goes on for three hours or so deciding to do it on Twitch, just a lovely late night stream, and then we decided to go to sleep and I immediately fall asleep, wanting to be tomorrow so bad to see her again.

Author note:
just some general information Abby is 21 and Andy is 26 and I decided not to talk about rona, so as if it never happened.

It's a chapter to start to understand how they feel about each other, let me know if you liked it.
