Don't Let Go - Nathan Sykes Fanfiction

Chapter 15 - Playing With Fire

The next morning we all got ready and went downstairs to have breakfast. It was only when I was stood in the queue to get some cereal that I remembered what I had seen last night. I shuddered suddenly and felt a hand on my shoulder. I instantly turned around and saw Jay. Phew, I thought, pouring in some cornflakes into the black bowl.

"Hey, how are you enjoying America then?" Jay said smiling at me, whilst he picked up a tray with five cups of tea on it.

"Great thanks!" I lied. I was hating all of it. I didn't know who to trust anymore, I didn't even know who were my friends anymore.

"Awesome, we're catching an early flight to Los Angeles to do a few gigs after tomorrow. Feel free to do what you want today."

"Thanks Jay. I think I'll head out for a bit of shopping." I said, my stomach rumbling like crazy. Being pregnant wasn't as easy as first thought.

"Nathan said he had the same idea." I laughed and started to walk over to our table.

"How weird..." I replied, taking a seat next to Kelsey and Max.

Eventually once we were all sat down at the table, there was little conversation made. If anyone spoke, it was pointless. There were one word answers and occasionally a few words from Siva and Nareesha but that was about it. It was very awkward, very awkward indeed.

Tom and Nathan were sat at opposite ends of the table, with fans stood a few metres back from us. They had only noticed us when I stupidly shouted Nathan's name for knocking my drink all over the floor. He can be so clumsy.

Big Kev and Nano were stood at the glass doors, making sure no one could get in, thankfully.

"So what is everyone up to today?" Eventually Max said.

"Me and Tom are going sightseeing!" Kelsey said enthusiastically.

"Yay." Tom said and we all laughed.

"Me and Siva are thinking of going to visit some friends we know, and then we're going out for lunch with Kathryn and Joel." Nareesha said. 

"Have fun guys. Tell them we said hi," Jay said next. "Well I'm probably just going to stay around here, unless Big Kev wants to come out with me, get hammered and meet a chick?" We laughed and Big Kev turned around.

"What? What?" He said.

"Nothing. Nothing." Jay replied.

"No really, go on bird."

"It's fine, you wouldn't understand." I was nearly crying at this point. Big Kev sighed and turned back to the fans that were smothered against the glass doors, talking a ton of pictures. Every second I was in the dining hall the seventy - odd fans were screaming for autographs, mainly from the boys, mainly for Nathan.

"Well I'm going shopping. I need clothes." I said.

"More clothes? Really?" Nathan said. I glared at him.

"Shut up sloth boy." Everyone 'Oh'd'

"What have I done now?"

"Nathan shut up for god’s sake." I yelled and everyone stopped eating to stare at us.

"Is this really the time?" Nathan said, looking away and trying not to laugh.

"Yes, and I'm free to speak my mind now. But for your sake I won't." I got up from the table and walked out throught the exit, avoiding the fans.

"Well, I was going to do the same anyway." Nathan said and Max threw his jacket at him. "What?"

"Well hope you all have fun. I think I'm just going to do some writing. I called John over because he said he was free. He booked a studio a few miles away for me."
