Feelings about the unknown

Part 15

Colby's POV

I look up at Sam with dread in my eyes as those words escaped my lips. I could not help but come close to tears as I thought about how much pain and shock, I brought Sam last night.

It was obvious that he tried to look past it and forget about it, but it was difficult for him, just like it was for me. Feeling the tears threaten to slip from my eyes I put my head down and looked at the floor. I did not want Sam to see me in this state, I must show him that I am sorry but that things can go back to the way they were.

We sit in silence for what almost seemed like forever. I don't want to look at him, I am scared he may have a face full of disgust directed towards me.

"It's okay dude," Sam says as I hear him sit on the bed.

I quickly look up at him, surprised by his response. His face was calm and plain, I can't read him. Is he seriously okay with what happened or is he just trying to keep face?

"Are you sure? Don't you think we need to talk about th.." I say but before I can even finish, Sam cuts me off.

"We need to go ahead and start getting ready for tonight. I am going to call Kat really quick. Can you go ahead and get the cameras ready?" Sam says while standing up and having his phone ready to call her.

I don't even know what to say. Sam looks over at me, his eyes wide with anticipation for what I was going to say, yet he looked like he was desperate for me not to bring the topic up again. I don't want to cause him more pain.

I nod slowly while entwining my fingers together and looking back down at the ground. I can feel the rage in me boiling, but why am I getting mad? Is it because he won't talk to me about this or is it because I am mad at myself for even starting it? While all these thoughts run through my mind, I am snapped out of it by Sam.

"I am going to go outside and call Kat, okay?" Sam tells me while heading out of the door.

I look in his direction and stare as the door shuts. I pause for a second, letting myself calm down. I sigh and slowly stand up, grabbing the computer bag with some of the camera stuff.

I take the computer out and open it up to make sure that the SD card transferred everything over before I put it back in the camera.

"Wait, why is this video open?" I ask out loud as I click play on the video.

Sam's POV

I exit the room and lean my head against the door. Why would Colby bring up last night? Does he not realize that it was a mistake? I mean I am with Kat...

"Fuck..." I mumble to myself as I realize I now have to call her. She is going to be so upset with me for not really messaging her. I still haven't even told her about what happened at the theatre last night. Hopefully, she won't be too upset with me after she hears about it.

I begin to walk down the hallway and into the elevator, I click on the bottom floor. I look up and stare at the screen on top of the elevator watching the numbers change. Hopefully, I don't get stuck in the elevator again, I don't have Colby with me this time.

"Why did I just think that?" I say to myself as the elevator door opens. I shake my head and start to walk towards the exit. I get outside and start heading towards the truck, I click on the call button for Kat and put it up next to my ear. As it rings, I get to the truck and lean against the driver's side door.

"Hello?" I hear Kat say over the phone.

"Hey babe. How is everything?" I ask knowing it has been a while since she has updated me.

"Oh um... well everything is good. Tour life is a little different than what I thought it would be. I thought I would be used to it because of all the traveling I did with you and Colby." Kat says and I can hear the tiredness in her voice.

"I am sorry babe, but I am sure you got this. It is amazing in itself that you are on tour. What all are you doing between shows?" I ask while kicking some rocks on the gravel parking spots.

"Not much, mostly trying to rest I suppose." She says in a weird tone, why does something feel off?

"That's good, you said you wanted to talk to me about something right?" I ask while looking up at the sky and I see a few clouds go by.

"Yeah, well it is something I just kind of want to get off my chest." She says in a low voice, is she about to cry?

"Okay, what is it?" I begin to think of the worst-case scenario. Did she cheat on me?

"I don't know if we are exactly working out anymore..."
