a continent apart

(edit)chapter 11. ghosting and shopping

Oliver's Pov:

I just couldn't handle it so I had to make up a somewhat lie because I really like her and if she wants to be with ash then I suppose it's going to be a fight and one I hope I can win I just need some alone time. I walk into the studio hoping Carson didn't hear about what happened yesterday because I'd get an ear full.
I walk into the room and don't see Carson so I think I'm in the clear so I sigh and sit on the couch holding my songbook and start writing except it's hard cause Macie is on my mind a ton but I need to concentrate so I put in headphones and listen to whatever songs.

Time skip.........

As I was writing I feel a headphone ripped from my ear and I look up and see Carson looking at me with an expression I can't make out. " Why would you do that Carson I was working" I say closing my songbook and then face him. " What do you want?" I say confused as why he isn't saying anything.

He then sighs before responding. " I heard what happened at the restaurant why did you leave all of sudden from the table?" He says sitting next to me waiting for my reply.
I sigh before responding well I didn't want to stay long because you know management wanting songs from me" hoping he believes it because I don't want to admit that I Oliver was jealous of another man. He then looks at me with a look that says he knows me better than that. " tell me the truth Oliver, I know you better than anyone that was a lie or at least half a lie at best" he says folding his arms to his chest waiting for my response. I sigh can't get anything past this man I thought to myself. " alright alright I was jealous cause Mr. ash Parker was there and he was hanging out with Macie and well everyone else but when I got there it was namely her" I say sighing frustrated cause I admitted I was jealous. I then look over at Carson who had a different look on his face he is smirking oh great here comes the teasing. " I see Mr. jelly pants was jealous that's probably why you haven't been picking up your phone because it's been going off as we have been talking" he says point at the vibrating phone that has many messages from probably Macie and the other two trying to figure out what happened, but I don't want to talk right now to be honest.

" I feel like you should answer the person even if it's Macie she's going To think she did something wrong if you just ghost her but that's me whichever you do is up to you. But we probably should get to work so we can be done for the day." Carson says moving towards the recording room and sitting in the chair where a desk and computer are. I sigh knowing I have to make a choice, but I think I'll just wait until later because I have to work.
Even though Carson is giving me looks i ignore them cause I know he's judging me for my decision by ignoring her and getting back to my songs cause they are due soon anyways I so look away from him and I hear him sigh and does whatever I'm just hoping I made the right choice cause I'm just so jealous of what happened I just need a break from her yeah a break so I don't go off on her and hopefully I can get over her if that's who she rather be with then so be it. but at the same time, I wished she was mine...

Macie's Pov:

still no answer i thought to myself as i was getting ready to go shopping with Addie and Trevor since tour may be starting soon, she thought that maybe we could shop for some stuff likes clothes and some equipment so that we are prepared in her words. but as they talk amongst themselves i thought about inviting Oliver since it seems like Addie didn't offer to invite him and she then told me to invite him. but I'm still getting nowhere but a voicemail so i sit my phone down after attempting to text him and call him with no luck and i sigh in defeat before Addie looks my way seeing my defeat and confusion. "what's wrong mace?" she asks me with confusion on her face. i sigh before responding " well Oliver isn't answering his phone and I don't know why didn't even say he was busy, or anything just leaves me on delivered" i say showing her the messages i sent to him trying to invite him to the little hang out we are having. her eyes read the message and her brows furrow in confusion quickly grabbing her phone and texting who i assume is Oliver a message on why he's ignoring my messages to invite him out with us. then her phone goes off and she reads the message and scoffs loudly getting Trevor's attention asking "what's wrong adds?" he says driving she turns over to him to reply "well Macie was trying to get Olie to come join us but he was ignoring her so i tried to send a message and all i get is a message from Carson saying Oliver is busy writing music to answer to anyone" she says in a frustrated tone and then Trevor pulls in the mall and Trevor replies "well it is almost tour so it's probably best he stays and writes some music so he has enough before we all meet up before the tour and he has to show management and who ever his music Addie" he says helping her out of the car. she gets out rolling her eyes at him before saying "well his loss and tour doesn't start for a while I don't see why he can't make time for like a day to spend time with everyone plus he just met her no?" she says weaving in her fingers into his hand so they are holding hands and he nods his head before he kisses her forehead and replies " don't worry we will have plenty of time I'm sure for all that later before and after tour starts of course and yeah he did but it will be okay I'm sure adds" he says and she nods her head with a smile before grabbing my hand into hers and she drags us towards the stores saying " let's get to shopping now i need new clothes for tour and other supplies along with mace needing some stuff" she says with a bright smile on her face and i just let her take me as i get lost in my thoughts on why Oliver was ghosting me all of sudden was it something i did yesterday? did i say the wrong thing? i wish i knew cause i liked talking to him before he left all of sudden yesterday i really miss him i thought to myself as i try to hold back a sad look cause i didn't want to be sad with Addie around cause we are meant to have fun instead i get lost in the many clothes while Addie and Trevor shop around and talk amongst themselves before i hear a loud gasp of shock but then when i look to see who did it Addie was heading to the dressing room. must of had found something she liked i thought to myself as i walked around looking.
