Nothing like starting over (Hunter hayes fan fiction)

Chapter 29/Intentions

I woke up in the guest room and just stared at the ceiling. I had to see hunter later today and I still haven't decided what I was gonna do. I really wanted to tell Hunter the truth. I loved Lucas. I really really did but I also cared about hunters feelings. Even if nothing had happened between me and hunter and then Lucas had asked to get back together I would have probably said yes. I've just been with him so long it feels good to have someone who knows all your flaws and doesn't care. I rolled out of bed and immediately smelled bacon. Lucas was definitely trying to make things better between us.

"Good morning sunshine" he said as I zombie walked to the kitchen table.

"I made breakfast" He smiled proudly

"I know. I smelled it" I yawned and smiled.

"Yeah I figured I wouldn't have to wake you up" he laughed.

"What time is it ?" I asked

"8:45" he said making me a plate.

"Shit."

"What ?" He walked over and set my plate in front of me

"Work with Hunter at 12:00"

"That's not for a few hours though. Why are you worried ?" He asked taking a seat across from me

"I'm not I just still haven't figured out what I'm gonna do. I wanna tell him but I know he'll be hurt. And he's already hurt." I took a bite of bacon

"Well maybe he'll surprise you and be cool about it and understand" Lucas tried to be positive all the time. One of the things I liked about him.

"Maybe. I'm not even sure if I'm really supposed to work with him or not. They aren't supposed to work him like a dog again. But i don't know. Betsy wants me to get him wot write as much as he can by the end of the year and then she just wants me to fill in what he doesn't finish so he won't lose his record deal." I sighed

"Damn. Won't he be pissed when he regains his memory and realized you guys pretty much made up his life for him. ?" Lucas asked

"That's what I keep saying but she's saying that he'll be happy he still has his record deal and that if he lost it and got his memory back he wouldn't have anything left and they don't want him to be depressed anymore. So they figure a record deal from a record he didn't totally make himself is better than nothing"

"That's messed up though. The kid needs help. For his head. Like he's all screwed up and depressed and that's what they should be trying to help and prepare to fix when he gets his memory back. Not his record deal." Lucas said

"Thank you ! I've been trying to tell her that but I know that basically means I'm out a job. But hunters grown on me and I'm not sure this job is worth being a shity friend to him. I don't think it is."

"Then quit" Lucas stated

"Quit ? But they need me. They will be pissed." I said

"Well hun it might be the best thing. You wanna be jobless for a little while until you find another job which you know you will because your so talented or do you wanna continue doing this to Hunter and possibly ruin your friendship and get fired anyways when he gets pissed off." Lucas said bluntly

"That's true. I don't know Lucas I really don't. I just don't wanna hurt him anymore." I moved the eggs that were on my plate around.

"Ya know it might be the best thing for you to." He said while shoved food in his mouth.

"What do you mean ?"

"Well put it this way. You go down and tell Betsy right ? Tell her that you don't think this is right and how you wanna quit. Just be nice and don't argue. Don't piss her off just tell her you feel bad and that you will still be friends with Hunter just you can't work with him cause it's to stressful or something. And then you'll be off the hook. Then tell Hunter you don't think y'all should be together because of the work situation but you still wanna be friends. It works both ways and it's the truth to. You aren't lying you aren't doing anything wrong." He said

I was kind of pleased with that idea. It really was how I felt to. Lucas always tried to please everyone. I thought about it for a minute. I was uneasy about quitting but I wasn't sure what else I could do. I mean I don't wanna do this to Hunter anymore.

"I guess I should text Betsy and see if she wants me to work with him today. I sorta hope I don't have to." I pulled out my phone.

"Yeah. I gotta do laundry today" he trailed off

"No we need to have a bonfire" I smirked with out taking my eyes off my phone.

"Right right. Maybe if you don't have to work we can go pick out some new stuff. I think we need some stuff anyways." He said

"That sounds like a good idea, what else do we need ?"

"I think we need paper towels and I think we are almost out of tooth paste."

"I'll just go through and make a list. We should go shopping anyways. I noticed how much of our crap is piled up in the guest room. It's really cluttered and messy in there. We should clean it out and organize it" I suggested

"Yeah sure. I haven't really been in there. Usually we just throw shit in there" he laughed

"Yeah. I don't even think we put away the Christmas decorations" I giggled

"So I think I'll just go get ready and hopefully you won't have to work today" he said taking my plate into the kitchen for me

"I'm just waiting for her to reply to me. I don't hate working with Hunter but it would be nice to have a non stressful day. Just once" I sighed

"And you deserve it" Lucas rubbed my back

I watched Lucas walk down the hall and I smiled. It felt good and comfortable

A few minutes later I got a text from Betsy. Apparently Hunter wasn't feeling well and they were just going to go over a few things with him so I didn't have to go in. I was worried about Hunter, but I wanted to focus on Lucas right now. Me and him planned to go shopping and fix up the guest room. It sounds like a dull way to spend the day but to me it sounded relaxing and a lazy day.

"Gotta work ?" Lucas asked coming out from the hallway

"Nope I'm free today" I laughed

"Good. I finally get you all to myself" he smiled wrapping me up in one arm and planting a kiss to the side of my head.
It just made me smile. I really missed Lucas. He just made me happy. I felt so comfortable with him.
