Hartley threw her phone on her vanity before grabbing the myceler water and the cotton pads to take off her make-up. Her friends walked into her dressing room after sending off some of Hartley's fans after the concert was over.

"Hart, that was amazing! Best show out of the tour, hands down!" Devyn said, going over to hug the girl. She lazily smiled and held Devyn's arm with her free hand.

"Thanks, Dev. Did you guys talk with Manager Lim about Drake Bell for me?" Hartley was planning a small project that will hopefully take place in the winter with artist Drake Bell.

"Yeah... about that..." Priya started. Hartley immidiately turned to face her best friend in her chair, setting the cotton pad down on the vanity.

"We talked... and she told us... to tell you.... that we're not going to be moving forward with the project. Manager Lim said that we're not going to have enough time with the fall semester of school starting in like a week. Sorry, Hartley." Priya said before moving forward to hug the girl. Hartley showed no emotion and just wrapped her arms around Priya.

Her friends stayed quiet as Hartley pulled out and grabbed her phone to text Minho about the plane ticket once again.

𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒆❣️

Minho, can you reschedual the ticket
and make Dev, Pri and Lia's for tomorrow?
I can't do the project anymore and my
manager wants us to get back to Korea
before the fall semester starts.

Yeah, of course I can. Just a heads
up, I'm heading to LA tomorrow
to visit my mum so we'll be leaving
together.

We're flying upper class or coach?

Upper class, obviously. I'm not flying
in coach even if my life depends on it.

Right. Anyways, I have to go. I'll text
you in the morning.

Okay. Sleep well, beautiful.
I love you.
Seen at 7:56 P.M

"Girl, did you not just tell him 'I love you' back?" Devyn asked, leaning over her shoulder to see who she was talking to.

"No, he knows already. I don't need to tell him." Hartley responded before going back to taking her make-up off once again. The group sat in Hartley's dressing room, talking about all the things they would be doing when they get back to Korea.

"Oh, Lia, have you talked to my brother at all yet today?" Hartley asked, realizing that she hasn't seen Lia talk to Xander in a little while.

"Oh shit! He sent me a text like 3 hours ago. He's probablly all poutey and shit."

Lia rushed to get her phone as the group of friends laughed at how the girl acted. That's when Hartley's phone started ringing. 𝑿𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒚🐸, Xander's caller id came up on her phone. "Hey, guys, I'm going to step out for a sec. Xander's calling."

Her friends nodded as she made her way into the hallway. She closed the door to her dressing room and stood in the hallway. "What's up? If it's about Lia, she's literally right about to text you."

"It's not about Lia. It's about you, Hartley. Are you coming back for the fall semester?"

"Yeah, I am. I'm heading back tomorrow since my manager canceled the project we were supposed to do in the winter, so I can head back early."

"Okay, well have you talked with Minho? You know he's second guessing your guys' relationship. He thinks you guys aren't going to last the fall together. Hartley, he's been really upset lately."

Hartley sighed softly before responding. "Min's just overthinking things. We'll be fine. I have to go. I'll text you later." Hartley hung up the phone with her brother before releasing a breath she had been keeping in after Xander mentioned everything involving Minho. She shook her throught's away and went back into her dressing room, finishing removing her make-up and changing into some more comfortable clothes for the rest of the night.
