He rubbed his eyes quickly.
"I didn't know you stayed too."
"I wasn't planning on but I have to talk to you." I got two bottles of water and handed him one.
"Actually you have to talk to me." I sat down next to him, not too close though.
"There's nothing to talk about."
"Bullshit! I don't know what happened between you and Ben but it fucked you up badly. I need to know so I can kill him."
"I'm sure Chiara told you already."
"She told me Ben was mad about you and her flirting. But that doesn't scare you, I'm sure. What really happened?"
"What? The dick told her that?" He drank his water angrily.
"Well, what did he actually tell you?"
"That cunt was freaking out and going on about me and her getting it on. Honestly we didn't do a thing." His hands tightened around the bottle.
"If he ever found us doing anything or that we had done something he will kick me off this fucking tour and out of his stupid life."
That wasn't Ben at all. I was shocked and didn't quite know how to react.
"I will murder him. It's his own fault." At the moment this was the best I had.
"What you mean?"
"Come on, we've all seen him looking at Luna more than once. He's still head over heels. And when he's seen enough he's coming to Chiara for the grand final."
"Does Luna know?"
I looked at him. I wasn't sure what he wanted with this question.
"She's too busy with James to even care. And honestly, it's for the best otherwise this will turn into a really awkward tour."
He nodded. He still looked absent.
"This is all so fucked up already." I hugged him.
"It's not your fault though. You should tell Ben he needs to get his feelings straight. 'Cos as long as he's not over Luna this shit will keep happening."
"You're right. Tonight's probably not good though. He'll come back all fucked up and stuff."
"Do it tomorrow, during soundcheck." I hugged him again.
He sighed. "Thank-you. Wanna play Fifa or something?"
I stood up. "I'm gonna kick your ass, Worsnop!"

LUNA P.O.V
I was dancing with James who kept feeding me drinks.
"James, stop it!" He tickled me without realizing it.
He pulled me close again, from behind.
"What? I'm not doing anything." He kissed my neck.
I giggled. He kissed my ear but kept his movement to the music.
"James, really. That's so-"
"So what?" I could feel he smiled.
"So nice." I danced along and let him go on. It still tickled me but I liked it.
"Can we go outside for a minute?" He asked a bit unexpected.
"Oh, uh, sure." He took my hand and dragged me out.
We stood next to the entrance. A lot of people were walking in and out. It was kind of annoying and irritating me.
