Chapter 20-Final Show

October 31, 2017

Houston, Texas

also slightly spicy in some cases, no smut though

Hope wakes up in Awsten's arms and she already doesn't want to leave. Instead, she just cuddled closer into his arms to get more comfortable.

Her movements cause Awsten to move around in his spot  a little before waking up.

"Morning darling." His voice is a lot lower than usual, Hope could listen to that every morning, and definitely that darling part.

"Morning, I love those names you call me." Hope says, then kisses his cheek.

"I'm only going to find some more to call you so get prepared."

Hope lays back down and rests her head on Awsten's chest. He lightly runs his hands down her hair and keeps his hands in place on her back.

"Looking forward to it. Can I just stay here?"

"Only until someone tries to drag us out of here."

Hope lets out a sigh, "Don't remind me of that."

Just like it was a calling for someone to interrupt them, Awsten gets a call from Lucas.

He picks up the phone, "Fucking god, it's like we summoned him." He says it loud enough in the phone to make sure Lucas can hear.

"What a good way to say hello Awsten" Lucas laughs, "anyway, we need you here around two. Is Hope with you right now?"

"Yeah she is. I know what you're thinking right now, but she's slept downstairs so don't assume anything."

"Alright, whatever you say. Just be at two thirty at the latest, but I advise you both to be here at two."

Awsten hangs up the phone and goes back to keeping Hope in his arms, "That's a good way to get them off our back."

Just a few hours later, Hope and Awsten are on their way to the venue. 

Awsten had shown her a couple of the songs that he and everyone managed to record before the tour and now they're blasting it in the car, singing along.

They make it to the venue at exactly two o'clock.

Awsten walks up to Lucas with a proud smile and his arms crossed, "I believe we deserve an apology for being so underestimated."

"I got to give it to you Awsten, you proved me wrong. But, I don't think that really deserves an apology if you ask me." Lucas says, then walks away to everyone in the green room.

Awsten's mouth is slightly ajar in disbelief and Hope is following Lucas, absolutely dying from laughing so hard.

It doesn't take long for Awsten to follow them back into the green room and Hope is already gone.

"She's in a dressing room, not sure which one though." Lucas answers after Awsten had asked him where she was.

Awsten doesn't want to seem desperate to see her, so he waits a few minutes before coming up with the excuse to use the bathroom, but he goes to find her.

After knocking on the other two dressing room doors with no answer, he knocks on the last one and hears Hope's voice, "Who is it?"

"It's Awsten." He sings his name.

"Okay, you can come in, as long as no one else is coming in with you."

"Nope, nobody is with me or following me." He answers, then opens the door.
