Just Me And You

PT 21

I got dropped off and gave them both a wave goodbye and entered my home. It felt like I haven't been here for years. I immediately went to my room and flopped on my bed. After a little I got up and went to the music room where I felt my suitcase because I had nowhere to put it. I brought it back up and started packing. I put my headphones on as I packed. I packed a lot of clothes, 2 different pairs of shoes, my undergarments, my toilet necessities, and anything else I needed. Time passed and once I was done, it was 3:00. Shit. I never told Alyssa. I jumped on my bed grabbing my phone and called her.

"Hello?"

"Alyssa! I have to tell you something!"

"Woah, ok what's up."

"Okay, so the band is going to Jacksonville Florida for an interview and a small concert they are performing and they hired me as their makeup artist, making me have to go with them Florida. So I won't see you."

"Oh my god! I'm so happy for you that it's a good opportunity. But, for how long." I was surprised to see her supporting me, usually she would get upset for me leaving.

"Only for a week."

"Oh, I expected it to be like 3 days ." Her voice went lower

"Well don't worry, I'm going to call you after everything to tell you!"

"Okay, well when do you leave?"

"Tonight..."

"Well, I'm not going to be able to say bye because my mom doesn't want me out again!"

"I'll call you then, when I get to Florida."

"Fine, love you!"

"Love you too." The call ended. I was kind of bummed to know I won't say bye to her but her mom is a little strict. I laid in bed looking at the ceiling, bored as hell. But I haven't talked to my mom and dad for a while so I'll call them. I waited for an answer but nothing. I called them again, and again, and again. No answer. *Maybe they are just busy.* I thought. I decided to work on my music to keep me occupied. I went to the music room and practiced my song "Be Quiet and Drive (Far away).

*Bills POV*
Since last night, I haven't been in such a good mood. After playing never have I ever, i felt sad. But it's weird because I moved on from the whole situation. But thinking about it made me, hurt.

"I just used you because you were famous! Sorry but its the truth!"

I looked at her. How could I think she would fall in love with someone like me? She was my first kiss, my first love. But throughout our relationship, everything was toxic. But I wasn't the toxic one, she was. She wanted everything her way. If it didn't, she would punch me or slap me, causing me to have bruises. And nobody stood up to her, I mean nobody. Not because they were scared of her, but because we once went through something like this. But with my mother. "Fuck you." I mumbled. She gave me a smirk and walked out of my house. I felt betrayed, useless. But it was over, I finally didn't need to deal with abusive and toxic shit anymore.

*Time skip*
It was about 2 hours in from me practicing and I decided to take a shower since I was sweating. Before I hopped in my phone started going off. I put a towel to cover my body and went to my desk table to see who was calling. Bill.

"Helloooooo"

"Hey y/n, we are going to pick you up at 8 and then we are going to chill at our place until then."

"Okay, sounds good."

"Alright, bye."

The call ended and I hoped in the shower. I got out and got dressed in something comfortable. Some black sweats and a big graphic t-shirt that was Tom's. I checked the time and it was 5:58. I had a lot of time left. I put my suitcase by the front door and another small bag next to it. I sat down in the living room and switched channels to find something to watch. I was hungry so I made a little snack and ate it while watching tv.

*Time skip*
We were all chilling in the living room talking about random things. My mind started to shift as I remembered the album they were talking about when I eavesdropped. I wanted to see how they would react if I asked them about it. "Hey guys, when can I hear the song on your new album." They all gave each other worried looks but stayed silent.

"Actually, we decided this one has to be a band member only discussion. Just because something about the album can't be said until released." Gustav said. I nodded my head. I looked over to Bill who seemed really out of it. He looked upset, tired and stressed.

"Bill you ok?" I asked. He didn't move. He was zoned out. "Bill" I shook hims softly as he looked up to me.

"Sorry, what?"

"You ok?"

"Oh uh yeah just thinking about the interview." I knew he wasn't telling the truth but I didn't want to push it. I nodded as everybody continued to talk.

*Tom's POV*
I knew why Bill was so out of it. After what happened last night, his mind has shifted to it, replaying the whole situation in his head. I know our life seems as if it's perfect, but it really isn't.

"Mom!" I said as I ran to her, seeing her fall to the ground as she was hit by my father. I was only 9.
