Imagination (Christian Collins fanfiction)

Chapter 18

I woke up because someone was stroking my cheek. I opened one eye and glanced up to see Chris smiling at me. I fell asleep on his lap all night.

"We gotta get ready." I nodded and sat up, I stared straight trying to wake up while Chris got up and went to get ready.

I stood up and walked to my suitcase and grabbed a tank top and some skinny black jeggings. It was cold so I took one of Christian's hoodies.

I went to the bathroom and changed, then brushed my hair out and put mascara on. I walked out of the bathroom and Chris turned around, "You jacked my hoodie." He said smiling and placing his hands on my hips.

"You look cute." He said and kissed my forehead, he's seriously adorable. "Guys we gotta get going to the venue." Jeff yelled so the whole bus could hear.

I grabbed my phone and walked off the bus. Chris grabbed my hand and started swinging our hands back and forth.

When we got to the venue everything was already set up. We took our places on the carpet for the meet and greet and the doors opened, people started lining up and screaming.

The first fan came down and then more. A couple people were so sweet and actually talked to us! Some only said hi but they're shy and nervous, I get it.

One fan came up with booty shorts and a crop top. There's always that one "fan"...

She jumped on Chris and he held her by her waist, I had a fan with me and she saw the look I was giving the girl on Chris. She looked at them and cringed, "Don't worry, you're prettier." She said before walking to Sam.

I looked over at him and he saw the worried look on my face, "After VIP" he mouthed and I nodded. Chris and the girl took a picture, then she went to Crawford and hugged him tight.

When she got to me she hugged me, took a picture, and went to Sam. I looked at Crawford and he knew I didn't like her. "It's okay." He whispered and I nodded.

VIP continued until the last couple fans came. I ran so I was walking with Sam backstage, I followed him to a couch in the back and sat down staring at him.

"They know each other, don't they?" I asked and he nodded. "That," he started, "Was Christian's best friend for like 3 years before she moved."

When he said that, her name popped in my head.

That was Lillian.

My eyes widened and I can tell he knew that I knew her. She tried to date Chris but he said he liked someone else... it just now occurred to me that I was the someone else. Whenever I asked him who it was he would nudge me and say, "Someone."

"I still don't like her." I mumbled and started messing with my thumb ring. Chris walked in and looked confused, but quickly wiped that away, "Guess who came today?" He asked excitedly.

"Lillian." Sam and I said in unison. Chris just stared at us. I didn't dislike Lillian because she tried to date Chris, more because of how bad of a person she was.

If I had to, I would pick Ashton over her...

She emotionally hurt me and made me swear not to tell Chris, so he has no idea... He sat down and wiped tears from my face. I'm crying?

"What's wrong?" He asked and pulled me in to his arms.

Here goes nothing...
