it's been about a month since me and saylor started officially dating. it's been pretty smooth sailing since then. honestly, not much has changed between us since then, besides the fact that we're a bit more affectionate. i'm honestly still trying to get used to being in an actual relationship after so many years of pushing even just the concept of one away.

since a month or so has passed, we've already started our second tour. our first show is in london, which we've just finished. with this tour, there will be almost double the amount of people at each show compared to our first tour, which is insane to think about.

i honestly never thought we would, or even could, gain so many fans as quickly as we did.

after we finished the show, the four of us went backstage, and we all went to our respective green room. i walked over to the mini refrigerator that was in here, and i grabbed a bottle of water from it. i drank most of it, then lightly poured the rest over my face and a little in my hair, before shaking it out.

there was a knock on my door, so i walked over to get it. i raised a brow as i saw that it was one of the security guards. he didn't say anything; he simply held up my flannel to give it to me. during the show, i had gotten hot, so i had taken it off and tossed it somewhere onto the stage and forgot about it.

i wasn't expecting the crowd to go crazy just from me taking my flannel off, but they did. maybe i'll do it at some of the other shows too.

i gave a small nod to the security guard as i took my flannel from him. with that, he walked away. i pulled my flannel on, and i walked out into the hallway as i closed the door to my green room.

i walked over to saylor's green room, and i raised my fist to knock on her door. only a few moments passed before the door opened. saylor looked up, and she smiled as she saw that it was me.

"hi, you," she murmured as she placed her hands on my waist, stood on her tiptoes, then pressed her lips to mine.

"hey, angel," i hummed as i cupped her cheek.

i glanced into her green room. "are you done in here?" i asked softly.

she glanced over her shoulder. "uh, yeah, i guess so. why?"

"you trying to sneak out of here?" i smirked with a mischievous glint in my eyes.

her own eyes widened slightly as she looked up at me. she then smiled. "yeah? where to?"

"just wherever; does it really matter?" i raised a brow as i dropped my hand from her face to instead hold it out to her.

she shook her head with an innocent smile before she placed her hand in mine. we both glanced around the hall to see if anybody was paying attention to us. when we saw that they weren't, we started to speed walk to one of the back exits. we were able to make it out of the venue without being stopped by anybody.

"you wouldn't happen to know your way around london, would you?" i gave a stupid, joking, yet hopeful, smile.

"now why would i?" she teased lightly.

"it was worth a shot," i shrugged.

i glanced around. i gave saylor's hand a small squeeze before i started to walk in a general direction. as we walked, saylor's thumb rubbed the back of my hand.

i love when she does that.

"hopefully we'll find a restaurant or something," i mumbled.

she giggled quietly. "honestly, when do you not want food?"
