Chapter 17

"Hey, Ireland. Can I talk to you?" Matt's voice came from behind me.

Nash and I had gotten back an hour earlier and everybody was in our room eating food and doing smack cams.

I looked at Nash and he nodded once. I followed Matt out into the hallway.

"You have five minutes." I actually didn't know why I agreed to listen to him.

"Ok. It's important so don't interrupt me," he started.

"Well, I kinda got a little mad after you called me and said that you thought we should just stay friends. I didn't actually meet a girl after you left I just didn't want you to feel bad. You sounded so relieved when I agreed to staying friends. Then you came back hanging on his arm. It made me really mad. The whole thing that happened at his party was a lie. I didn't have any idea on who I was going to bring. I actually felt really bad. But I was hoping Miranda would change. I don't know what I was thinking. I'm so sorry, Ireland. I realize that you're happy now. I don't want to effect your feelings for Nash. I'm so epically sorry," he finished his rant.

"Matt, we were best friends. I wouldn't mind if you could try to work your way back up to that title. Now that Miranda's gone I have no one except you guys. I'll forgive you if you promise to at least try to be friends with me again. It really hurt me and what you did doesn't have to happen again if you promise me that," I said.

"I promise."

I gave him a short hug and we walked back into the hotel room. Nash was at my side in a matter of seconds.

"He didn't hurt you? Did he apologize? Did you forgive him? Are you going to leave me?" he rushed out.

"No, yes, yes, and of course not. I love you remember?" I gave him a chaste kiss on the lips and we sat down on our bed.
"I love you." He said.

We spent a few hours like that until around noon.

"'Kay lets go!" Cam said. We were onto a new event.

About and hour into it I nudged Nash.

"Yeah, babe?" I looked at me. I attempted to tell him what was wrong but I fell on my butt. My head was spinning.

"I'm r-really tired, N-Nash. I don't feel good at all," I said. He nodded.

"Hold up, your nose is bleeding." He went and grabbed a tissue. I held it to my face and waited for the dizziness to go away.

"I think I need to go lay down. This isn't normal," I murmured to him. He picked me up and carried me to a couch backstage.

Lat and Koko were at my side in an instant.

"What happened, Irish?" Koko asked worriedly.

"I think I'm just catching a small bug. I'll be fine." I yawned and closed my eyes.

"Baby. Ireland. C'mon girl, wake up." I felt a small tapping on my face. I was in the hotel room.

I grabbed my head. Ouch.

"What time is it?" I grumbled.
"Like 9 at night. You were out for a while. I got you some medicine and some coffee," Nash said. I took the drink from him and took some of the pills. I let my head fall back into Nash's lap and fell asleep again.

I woke up an hour later. I ran to the bathroom to get some toilet paper to try to stop the light flow of blood coming from my nose. That lasted about 20 minutes.

2:55 AM

It was cold. I started shaking.

"Nash..." I whispered through my chattering teeth. He hummed in response.
