When I met you in the Summer

Chapter 19

Nash's Pov:

A few hours into the day, I took her back to her apartment. As soon as she got in, she read a note from her dad. When I turned around I saw her brother there. Josh.

"Josh?" Emily asked giving him a hug turning around even though he didn't really hug her back. "What are you doing here, I thought you were gonna be Vegas all week?" She asked him.

"I broke up with my girlfriend." He said.

"You had a girlfriend?" She asked him.

"Um. That's not important. Why are you coming home in his clothes, your lucky I didn't spill to dad you weren't here this morning." He said.

"Ugh. I'm going to get dressed." She said leaving the room.

Josh shot me a look.

"Listen man, can I uh- talk to you?" I asked him scratching the back of my head.

"What could you possibly want from me?" He asked.

"I-I I'm really worried about Emily." I told him.
He stayed calm. "I don't think she told you but, she has an eating disorder. She suffers from anorexia. She's been doing fine until like last week. She's getting so much hate on the Internet and she's relapsing pretty much." I said. "I have no idea what to do to help her. She's been eating okay the last two days, but she's been buying appetite suppressants and taking sleeping pills. I'm really worried about her." I told him.

"I don't really know what to say." He looked at me. "I-I'm gonna get her help." He told me. "I know you care about her and I get that now." He said. "But she's gonna have to go for help." He told me. And in this moment, I knew that'd she's be gone before the weeks end. I'd loose my girlfriend. And I'd live with the guilt because my fans pushed this back upon her.
"I wanna talk to her alone for a little while." He said. "As much as it pains me to say this, thank you man." He said. I said something before heading back to my apartment. What the hell have I done?

3 days later

"I don't wanna say goodbye." Emily said leaning against my chest.

"Em, relax. You could be gone for As little as 2 weeks and then we have 2 weeks left together." I told her. She teared up a bit.

"I love you." I told her.

"I love you too." She said kissing me hard. It lasted a while before we turned into hugging eachother.

"As soon as they let you out, I'll be the first one you see, okay?" I asked. She nodded. I kissed her again, before pulling her into a tight embrace and kissing the top of forehead. Before I knew it , she was gone and I was left alone to sulk. I grabbed my phone to call up Jack J. But Cameron stopped me.

We haven't been that close the last few months compared to how close we were.

"Man, is that what Emily would've wanted you to do?" He asked me.

"I can't believe I lost her."

"You didn't loose her, she'll eventually be back." He told me.

"Yeah, in New York."

"So, she's just never gonna visit her dad again and leave her friend Sarah here?" He asked me.

"Sarah." I breathed. "She's still here, I gotta talk to her." I said running out of my apartment down to The Collins.

"Hello." Sarah asked answering the door.

"You knew she was struggling didn't you?" I asked her.

"Wha-" I cut her off.

"That's why you agreed to come to LA with her." I told her.

"Nash, for your information, Emily was in a very good state of health compared to now, when she had first come here. She relapsed because of your fan girls hating on her." She said.

"Why didn't you do anything, if you knew that's why she was acting out earlier?" I asked her.

"Because, you could've helped her, not me." She said. "Why do you think she stayed with you through the crap she'd get from your fans meanwhile they didn't even know her name at the time, it's because she loved you. I'm just her best friend. You were more than that." She said.

"Sarah, I'm-" she cut me off.

"It's okay. I have to finish packing, I'm going home early. I'm gonna spend the last month of summer back in New York." She said.

"I didn't think about how it'd be hard on you as well. I'm sorry." I told her.

"It's okay, just hang in there, she'll be back soon enough. Don't do anything stupid." We both laughed and I hugged her before heading back to my apartment.

I think that was what I needed to hold me over.

1 week later

It's been a week and I haven't heard anything from Emily. It worries me a lot. I can't loose her. I haven't done much, I've gone to set everyday, left early because I felt sick a few times. But now I had off today and I could not be dragged out of bed today. That was until my phone went off and I had to get it off my desk. I didn't recognize the number, so I figured that it was some fan that Found my number, I love my fans despite how they react towards me being with other females. They know better now though. In a live stream I kinda low key said that this is what it leads too and it's been better ever since. I answered the phone.

"nash?" I heard a voice that sounded like Emily's.

"Oh my Gosh, EM. How are you?" I asked her.

"I-I'm---- I miss you." She said. "I wanna leave." She said.

"I wanna come visit you, but I know it's not allowed." I said.

"I know." She said.

"Just hang in there. Really take in everything they teach you there. Because then you don't have to go back Ever." I told her.

"I will." She said. "I gotta go, because I promised I'd call my mom and my times almost up." She said.

"Okay. I love you." I told her.

"I love you too." She said hanging up.
