Y/n's pov
Here I am. In line to meet the outer banks cast. They really helped me in my dark times. I'm still going through those dark times but it's a bit easier. Im 20 which makes it a lot easier to come to these things. With parent consent and all. It's easier when your an adult. I'm currently 9th in line. I've been waiting at least 2 hours now. My Father is sick and he might not make it. But I have some hope. He's always been so strong. He's my superhero which I know sounds cheesy but he's an amazing dad.
I move up in line 3-4 spaces surprisingly fast. I'm now 5th in line and I'm excited. I really am. I'm going to be meeting my heros. Not many people get that opportunity. I move up one more space fiddle with my fingers from my anxiety. I pass the time on my phone distracting myself and before I knew it. I was second in line. *ring ringg*. I take a glance at my phone to see my mum calling me. I take a deep breath and answer. "Hey Mum." I say softly. I look up to see the person in front of me walk up to the celebrities "Y/n,-" my mother starts "what's wrong why are you crying?" I ask starting to panic "it's your father. He's gone" she cries. I hang up and put my phone into my pocket and cover my mouth trying to stop the tears.
I feel my knees go weak when I hear a security guard say "next". I walk up to Chase first and hug him. "Hey there what's your name?" He asks "uh, Y/n" I try smile but a tear escapes my eyes. I quickly wipe it and look up at him "hey why are you crying?" He looks at me sadly. I sniffle and more tears fall slowly "um. I just got a call from my mum. My dad just passed away" I try swallow my sobs and look at him again "I'm so sorry Y/n. Come here" he opens his arms and I hug him trying not to break down. I let go of him and he signs a obx picture I had. He flipped it over and wrote his name and number under it "if you ever need someone. Just call" he smiles and I smiled back "thank you" I whisper. He smirks in return and I move to Rudy "hey princess what's your name?" He asks just as Chase did "Y/n" I say. "You Alright?" I look him in the eyes and swallow my tears again. I take a deep breath and say "yea" with a shakey voice.
"Hey what happened?" He asks as he pats me arms. "My father, he was sick. And I just got a call from my mum saying he um, he's gone" I quietly sob. He hugs me tightly "it's alright. It'll get better I promise". When he says basic stuff like that it sounds true and magical. I don't know how he does it. I let him go and he signs my picture and just like Chase he writes his number. I look up at him and he smiles. I smile back and he signals me to move to to Maddy. After about 10 minutes the same thing happened basically. When I was done I took my photo and walked over to the door. I started looking at the photo. My dad watched obx with me. He loved it. And all the times I would sit on his shoulders. That was the highest place on earth. How much I miss the fun we had. I fall to the floor and start sobbing very quietly. "Hey sorry will you excuse me for a second?" I hear someone say. I continue to cry and I take my jacket off and squish it like he taught me. If I ever wanted to hurt either myself or others to squeeze something. So I squeeze my jacket and look at my arms, the scars. I rummage through my pocket to take out a watch (the type that goes on your wrist)
My fathers watch. I put it on my wrist and cry more "Hey hey it's ok. Your Alright I've got you" I hear a male say. He hugs me and runs his hand through my hair. It's Rudy. I recognise his scent from before. I slow my crying down And he slowly lets me go. "Your ok" he lightly smiles and wipes my tears "why did you come over to me your supposed to be over there" i point over to the others "because your crying and I'm not just gonna watch you hurt. If I can do something to help I'm gonna do it" he holds my hands and stands me up. With everyone watching he kisses my cheek and walks back to his spot. I smile and grab my stuff and walk out. I get to my car and put my stuff down. "He's gone" is all I tell myself and I start crying again. I start to drive home still lightly crying.
Once I reach my house I bring my stuff in and take it into my room. And sit on my bed. I put my bag down and look at the photo wth the numbers on it. I put the numbers in my phone and I go into voicemail. I go back to last week when my dad left me a voicemail and play it "Hey Y/n. Uh I haven't seen you in like 4-5 days. I miss you shark, call me soon". I start balling my eyes out at the nickname. He always called me shark because I. Would always pretend to be a shark in our pool and scare him when I was little.
I falls asleep crying and holding my phone listening to my dads old voicemails.
The next morning I wake up and go into my kitchen and make some eggs. Feeling like absolutely shit I eat and get dressed. No make up and a messy bun. I start to think, maybe I should Call Chase, or Rudy or even Maddy. They said if I ever needed anything I can them. And I really need a distraction. I take my phone from my bed and go onto Rudy's contact. I hesitate at first. What if he thinks I'm being clingy or annoying. He's a celebrity and I'm just me. He's probably busy. As I go to put my phone down I accidentally press call and I panic "hello?" I hear "h-hey, it's Y/n......" I say. There was a small silence "oh hey are you doing a bit better? Is everything ok?" He asks "uh yea kind of I just kind of need a distraction so I was gonna call you but I started overthinking it and I accidentally hit the call button and yes. Here we are" I mumble on. "Hey hey hey it's ok. I'm actually glad you called. Hey if you need a distraction do you wanna come over?" My mouth goes wide "really?" I say in shock "yea we'd be happy to have you hear" I hear him practically smile "yea ok, I don't really know the address but-" I go one "nah it's ok. Send me your address and I'll pick you up, I'll see you in 15" he hangs up and I quickly send him my address. I run my to my bathroom and put a bit of makeup on to make myself presentable and I put on a tang top, bra and jean shorts or with a plade jacket and some black Vans. I grab my phone and keys. "Ok. I'm ready". I sit on my couch waiting not wanting to be late.
