Chapter 22 Hunter's POV
I walked into the bus and closed the door behind me. I was mad, upset, angry at everything right now. I walked to my bunk and placed my stuff down and looked around. Cole laying in his bed, who knows where the rest of the team is. "HUNTER!" I jumped and turned around as Matt, Devin, Justin all started laughing. I did a fake laugh,"you guys are funny." I said sounding like they got me scared. "We heard the conversation outside with you and your girl." I scratched the back of my head,"ugh, why were you listening?" I asked trying not to sound rude, but bit embarrassed,"because we want to make sure you're ok and that she didn't hurt you." Matt quickly responded,"well she didn't hurt me. I'm the only one who hurt her-" "you don't hurt anyone, you do what's best for someone-" "BUT SHE TOLD ME I WAS BEST FOR HER!" I yelled. They stood quiet. I walked away into the other room and sat on the couch. Cole came walking to me and placed his head on my lap giving me the 'are you ok?' look. I pet the top of his head trying to get my mind off of things,"we're not even going to get married until next year." I said to myself, that hurt even more. Lauren HAS to wait for me and I shouldn't be having her wait. I looked at my phone to see where we were heading first: Maine. I'm going across the country. There's noting I can do, but just hope time goes by fast. I felt someone sit next to me and put his arm around me,"Hunter I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you." Matt said,"nah don't worry about it, just tons of stuff on my mind right now it's distracting me from my music. The problem is, it's a real good distraction, best of the best." "I feel you, but maybe when you have those breaks during tour, you can go see her-" "I don't want to see her. If I see her, I will never want to go back." "You're a strong man, you'll know what to do at the end." He finished. I looked at him as he smiled at me,"I'll bring the band in here and get your guitar and we sing?" I nodded,"yea we can do that." I said. He got up and before I knew it, he came back as everyone else came and joined him. I sat up straight and couldn't help, but to smile,"give me that guitar!" I demanded playfully. He handed it to me, it felt like I haven't touched one in forever. I felt it and put in position and made sure the guitar was tuned correctly. I looked to see if everyone else had brought their instruments too and they sure did. "1, 2, 3.." And started playing "21" as everyone else played along. I sang and laughed as they laughed too. This is what I love about music, being able to be you when everything in the world is blocked out. This is what I miss most, even Cole was singing with me: howling to the music. It made me and everyone else laugh even more. Lets just forget about everything and focus on what's happening right now...
