4 years later-
I woke up in a random hotel room my management company had me stay in. I sat up and stretched and immediately noticed the immense throbbing in my head.
I couldn't for the life of me recall what had happened last night. I looked over at my bedside table and reached for my phone. I checked my messages, only to find hundreds of texts from everyone I knew except for the one person I was hoping to hear from.
It'd been two days and he still hadn't talked to me. I knew he could be dramatic but this was over the top. I had no idea where he was or if he was even safe.
Our fights were always over something stupid, including this one, but he'd never left like this. We always made up. We were in love. People who love each other aren't supposed to leave each other.
Oh wait, I guess I can't say that, can I. That just makes me a hypocrite.

Luke Patterson
"Luke, are you good?" Olivia asked, sitting down next to me. I immediately rolled my eyes.
"Yeah, I'm fine, okay? Can we just go already?" I got up off of the couch and grabbed my car keys.
"We're supposed to be there for the interview in 30 minutes and it's at least a 20 minute drive." Just then, Alex came out of his room wearing yet another outfit.
"Okay, what do you guys think about this one?" he asked, as I rolled my eyes again. "Yeah, whatever, it's great. Where the hell is Reggie?"
He scoffed. "I'm sorry Luke for actually caring about how I look. You should try it sometime." I walked past him, ignoring him, searching the house for Reggie. I was usually really laid back, but now that we had interviews all the time and events to go to, there wasn't any time for that.
I finally found him in the bathroom messing with his hair. "C'mon dude we have to go." I said sternly, grabbing his arm and dragging him out.
"Okay, okay!" he said, shoving me off. "I just finished getting ready, I don't need you ruining my hair."
"Is everyone ready?" I asked and they all nodded. "Great. Okay guys, this is one of the most important interviews yet. This is going on TV, not just on YouTube."
Olivia laughed. "We know Luke, we're part of this band too. And we'll be fine. We always are."

HAHA Y'ALL THOUGHT I WAS DONE? I finally caved and said fuck it. I'm writing the rest of this book the way I originally wanted to because I feel bad. I know none of y'all probably cared but it's for me besties :) These last few chapters are going to be fairly short because they're meant to be sort of a long epilogue heeheehee.
