A week.
It has been a week since Riley and I haven't talked. Toby was also worried since he spent most of his time alone. Whenever we try to do something fun, he shrugs off and tells us he's tired.
We knew something was wrong, it was one of those brotherly things. Ofcourse it didn't affect the fans, he flashes a smile and so on, and he lets everyone think he's fine. I hate that side of him. He doesn't want to let others help him cause he'll think he's a burden but no, we will help him. I don't know why he would keep it all in..

Anyway
It was the last day on tour and well Riley was doing his own thing and by that I mean isolating himself from his tour family and his own family.
He always goes out of the bus every morning and goes back before noon.
I stood up and got a tshirt from my drawer. I'm not even sure who's awake but I'll go ahead for breakfast. I'll probably text Toby later and ask him what he wants for breakfast.

I grabbed my phone from the counter. I went out the bus and saw Riley leaning on the bus not too far from the door with his head down. He turned to me when he heard the door opened. He flashes that Riley McDonough smile of his at me. I felt my cheeks getting flushed.
"Morning brother" He greeted.
"Hey Ri, Morning. What are you doing here?" I asked him
"Just lost in thoughts, I guess" He replied.
Hm, Thoughts huh..
There was that awkward silence between us.
"Everything okay?" I asked
"Perfect" He replied not looking at me and forms a smile but as his brother, I know its fake.
"Bro-"
"It's nothing Connor." He said walking off to whatever place he walks off too.

I watched him walk off and I sighed heavily. I don't know what to do with him. I like him but....
Connor Patrick McDonough
DID I JUST SAY I LIKE MY BROTHER!?

Oh shit. This is not happening.
Nope no feelings.
Brothers. Brothers.Brothers. Brothers.Brothers. Brothers.Brothers. Brothers.Brothers. Brothers.Brothers. Brothers.Brothers. Brothers. hahaha

I tried to forget that thought and ordered a Sausage McMuffin at McDonalds. I sat near the window and enjoyed the view for awhile. A quiet scenery. Maybe that's what Riley wants.. a quiet place. Maybe because of hate? that can't be..

I finished my food and walked out of McDonalds. I saw Riley at the other side of the road which looks like he was waiting for someone. When he saw me he started walking towards me. He walked with his hands on his pockets with the perfect timing of the wind blowing his face and damn he looked hot. Shit. NO NO NO NO NO NO

"Band practice!" He said.
I followed him back at the bus.
Toby was awake and complained why no one woke him up for breakfast. We laughed at him for that.

I couldn't stop looking at Riley everytime he sings, he sings like an angel giving another angel his wings.

"I think if Connor wasn't in the band and wasn't our brother and probably a girl, he would be a Riley Girl til he dies" Toby joked.
"Shut up Toby James" I say as I feel my cheeks getting red.

It was finally the last time to meet the fans and soundcheck for this tour.

I saw a girl who was trying hard to get Riley's attention but failed alot of times and boy, Riley will never forget her since she knocked out the food table which all broke our hearts.

"Hi" I heard a voice tell me. Snapping me out of my thoughts. A fan, smaller than Riley's height. Brown eyes and has a cute flashy smile like Riley.
"Hey! What's your name?" I say with a smile on my face while looking at her, she flashes a smile which she looks so beautiful.
"Hayley" She told me and after that I forgot all my feelings for my brother and Hayley and I got married and lived happily ever after... No that isn't true at all.
The truth is, we talked alot more about her interests, she loves bands, books, making poems, swimming, and hey starbucks and a lot more.
"I'll promise you something" I tell her
"And what is that Connor Patrick?" She tells me with a chuckle
"Give me your twitter acc and I'll follow you, I promise" I replied since she was the only fan who hasn't given her twitter acc or even her home address.
She gave it to me and there was a huge smile on her face.
After the meet and greet, Toby gave me a high-five. "Nice bro, You might be the first ever artists who will date a fan"
I laughed at what he said. Riley didn't say a word and became more quiter than usual.

It was really bothering me.
Even my feelings about him.
I hope this ends soon and Riley will be back to old Riley...
