HUNTER'S POV
Wow I didn't think she would feel the same way ? I'm surprised. I was still confused about liking her but at least she was right there with me on that, she wasn't totally sure how she felt either.
Payton had texted the guys that she wasn't going to join them, I strangely felt proud or sort of important that she chose to stay here with me rather than go out with the guys. I haven't had the best time lately with remembering my accident and all that so I was happy to be spending the evening with Payton. She never really poked and prodded me all the time. Even then I was still very confused. I wanted to ask so many questions but I wasn't sure if I wanted the answers.
We got out of Payton's car and walked up towards my apartment.
"Payton can I ask you some stuff ?" I asked while walking
"Sure" she chimed
"It can stay between us. I understand that you don't want to get in trouble with Betsy and all that but I feel ok saying that we are friends right ?"
"Yeah....we're friends" she smiled weirdly at me.
"Ok well I just want one person to be honest with me and I feel weird because I haven't known you that long and I hardly remember you but I feel like you've been more honest then people that I've known for a while" I said pushing the button to the elevator
"Ok so what do you wanna ask me ?" she questioned
"Well just a few things about everything that's going on"
"Like what ?"
"Well how much do you know about my accident ? and what was I like before it ?"
"Um well I wasn't around you to much except for work and you were just you I guess" she spit out almost sounding like a rehearsed answer.
The elevator doors opened and we walked down the hall to my apartment
"Oh. Ok. What about my accident ?" I asked putting the key in the door and opening it.
"Um well I remember that you were late to the studio one day and then sam came in to get me and he said something happened with hunter, we have to go to the hospital now, you want to come with us ? and we got there and the doctor just went over everything that was wrong with you and how you were injured." She said while walking straight to the couch and plopping down
"Oh. So what were we doing before my accident ?" I asked sitting next to her
"At work ? we were just writing songs. You just had a little writers block and Betsy called me and said you wanted to write with someone new, I guess you thought it would help you come up with some ideas." She said
"Oh well you wanna order some Chinese ?" I asked her
"Sure hunter" she smiled
"Ok" I answered getting up. I called this Chinese restaurant that was just up the street to put in for delivery.
"Hello ? I would like to place an order" I said
"For delivery or pick up ?" The women on the other end of the phone said
"Ummm delivery"
"Ok we're pretty busy tonight so it might be a little longer for our delivery guy to make it around to you, is that ok ?"
"Uuhhh Payton it'll be longer for delivery, is that cool ?" I asked her
"Eh we can pick it up hunt, it's not that far" she flashed a smile
"Ok it's for pick up then" I said into the phone
"Ok great, what's the order ?"
"Two orders of orange chicken, an order of fried rice and an order of chow mien"
"Ok I'll put that in for you, it'll be about twenty minutes"
"Ok thanks" I said before hanging up.
"They said it'll be about twenty minutes" I took my seat next to Payton
"Ok we will leave in like fifteen then, so what do you wanna watch ?" she playfully tossed the remote at me
"Ummm Payton ? can I ask you some more stuff ?" I said nervously
"Yeah...sure" she nodded
"Well I just don't get this whole stay offline, I mean I get why with the accident but the twitter stuff doesn't make sense. I know that my team ran my accounts most of the time anyways so it wasn't overwhelming but I don't know" I said
"Well I was told it was because they don't want you to see all the drama. You don't really need to see all of that, stuff is confusing as it is" she said
"Well I guess that makes sense. I just feel like I'm being kept in the dark about stuff and I just don't know" I hung my head down.
I felt Payton's hands cup my cheeks. She pulled my face up to hers and kissed my cheek gently.
"Hunter I can't imagine how hard this is for you. I can't say I know what your going through because I don't. All that I can say is that I'm hear for you. And please just understand that Betsy and the guys are just being over protective and extra careful with you because they love you and they care. And I do to." She said with a smile, then pecked my lips quickly and folded her hands back into her lap.
"Thanks Payton." I blushed
"Hey what do all these kisses mean ?" I nervously asked
"I don't know but I like them" she smiled blushing.
