It had been a few days since Chris broke up with me and I was just going through the notions of the tour. Getting on stage, performing, getting off stage, getting on the bus to the next stop and continuing on.
I was lying in bed on the bus one night after a show picking at but not eating the food Connie brought me. I was watching Captain America and just crying.
My cellphone starting ringing and my heart leapt in my throat praying it was Chris. I saw the picture come up on the screen and the name, the wrong Evans...
"Hey." I said answering.
"Hey, haven't heard from you in a few days." Scott said.
"Didn't think you would want to." I said.
"Hey, he told us he broke up with you. I know this wasn't on you or anything. You're my friend Kins. I just wanted to call and check on you."
"Well I'm fine. No need to worry about little ole me. Like he said it will give me great material for the next album. How Hollywood actors just play with hearts. This will be a great album, I smell another hit." I said.
"Don't be an ass Kinsley."
"How am I being an ass Scott?! I'm just going to be doing what Chris told me to do." I said annoyed.
"You know he didn't mean it."
"Well he has to know I get my writing and inspiration from somewhere, he is the muse now." I said and Scott groaned.
"Kinsley please stop. Seriously, you are going to be taking this too far. I know how you get when your heart is broken. You get vindictive and mean and lose yourself in it. You're willing to do that now at my brother's expense and I don't think that's fair."
"Fair?! You want to talk about fair and your precious big brother is the one who fucked up? Did you really call to check on me or did you call to make sure I wouldn't ruin his reputation?" I asked. I didn't hear anything from Scott for a minute.
"I called to check on my friend but I don't even think I can call you that right now Kinsley, you have gone off the deep end with this and you are willing to take whatever role you have to in this narrative to hurt people, people I love." Scott said and I growled.
"Nothing said I would Scott but you think I'm that fucking evil than maybe I will be." I said.
"You do whatever you have to do Kinsley Harlow but don't expect me to be there and supporting you when you do." Scott said.
"Fine, whatever you want Scott. Go protect you big brother like you always do, take his side knowing I had no choice or say in this matter." I said and Scott groaned.
"Fuck off Kinsley." Scott said and hung up. I threw my phone down on the bed. I started crying again...I had just lost my best friend, my only constant in my life was gone.
🎶 🎶 🎶
A few days later I was sitting in a hotel room, lying in bed not moving from the spot I put myself in when we got there earlier in the morning. The room was dark and I just wanted to be left alone. My back was to the door so when I heard the door to the hotel room open and I rolled my eyes.
"Kins..." I heard her voice say and my eyes filled with tears. I closed my eyes and shook my head slightly.
"Come on Kinsley, time to get up." I heard the other voice say. I sat up and saw my mom sitting on the edge of the bed and my dad standing at the foot of the bed. I just wrapped my arms around my mom and held her as I cried.
"It's going to be okay, we're here now..." Christie kept repeating over and over in a whisper which is what she repeated to me when she adopted me and I cried in her arms, although those were tears of joy.
Once I calmed down I looked up at my mom and she wiped the tears from my face.
"So you lost Scott too huh?" Jay asked and I nodded.
"Yeah, it was all messed up in so many ways. I'm hurt and Scott didn't seem to understand and he seemed to be taking Chris's side. This wasn't my fault that I couldn't go with Chris. I wanted nothing more than to be his date." I said and Christie sighed and just pulled me into another hug.
"Listen, we still want to talk but you also need to eat first. Terry said you havent been eating or taking care of yourself so come on. There is a little place down the road, we can go." Jay said and I sighed but nodded. I got out of bed, cleaned off my face and then grabbed the NASA baseball cap I had come accustomed to wear when I went out even though it was Chris's hat. I sighed looking at my reflection as I put it on and sighed. I looked at my parents and we walked out.
***CHIS POV***
I was sitting at my mom watching a movie with her when my phone went off.
"What's that?" Lisa asked and I shrugged opening up some picture sent to me by Megan.
MEGAN: These were just sent to me, did you know she looked this bad?
I opened the pictures that paparazzi had snapped of Kinsley. She was out to dinner with her parents, looked like they made it into town to take care of her and I noticed then how frail she looked. She hadn't been eating, sleeping or anything else it looked like. She looked tired and like she could collapse at any minute. She was still wearing my NASA hat which made my heart skip a slight beat.
"Who is that?" Lisa asked looking over my shoulder.
"Kinsley." I said.
"Kinsley?! Is she okay?!"
"No, she is heartbroken, like I am."
"You can fix it you know." Lisa said and I groaned putting my phone away. I couldn't look at her in the frail state she was in anymore.
"Not now Ma, please." I said and Lisa just sighed and we went back to sitting in silence. I knew what I did to her and I hated myself for it, this was all on me. I should have just sucked it up and dealt with her change but I wanted her, wanted to see her and actually hold her for a few nights and not have to worry about obligations. This is why dating someone in the business is so hard.
Maybe it was time for just me time. Maybe...or maybe it was time to suck it up and call Kinsley.
