"How are we the first ones ? We are never the first ones" I said taking my suitcase and looking around the airport
"I don't know, but I'm going to the bathroom just wait here"
"Alright just leave me alone" I mumbled to myself as he walked away, I looked around to find familiar faces but didn't find any, instead I found a girl looking at me and whispering to the person next to her, for a moment I forgot that I was an actress and a singer and I just felt like she was talking bad about me so I turned away from her and took my phone out
"Hey, uh excuse me ?" I turned to find the girl next to me, she had a smile on her face and looked really kind
"Hi"
"I'm so sorry to bother you, I'm a huge fan of yours and uh-" she looked through her backpack and then pulled something out that I was really not expecting "could you maybe sign this ?" I looked at the CD she was holding, my CD.
"Of course" she gave me a pen and I signed it feeling a little strange, I had signed multiple Percy Jackson copies before but never ever my own CD
"Can we maybe take a picture too ? If that's not"
"No of course, id love to" she smiled and turned to the woman who she was whispering to earlier
"Can you take a picture of us mom ?" The woman took the phone and took a few pictures of us, I hugged the girl once before the family left with the girl looking at her CD smiling brightly
"Wow already found fans huh ?"
"Charlie" I hugged the guy who had come up behind me feeling his arms around me too
"Hey Bee, where's Walker ?"
"Left me alone to die in misery"
"Feeling a little dramatic ?"
"No, I don't know why you would suggest that" he laughed shaking his head
"Hey I didn't really want to assume but before things get weird and I do or say something wrong-"
"Yes" I interrupted him knowing exactly what he was talking about "we broke up" he nodded a little
"Okay... I'm-"
"You found someone ?" Walker came back greeting Charlie too and interrupting the awkwardness between us
"She was drowning with fans when I found her" I hit Charlie's arm rolling my eyes
"It was one girl"
I kept looking around for the others, but especially for Aryan because I was really nervous about seeing him, if what Leena had said was right then these were going to be a long few months
Leah was the next one to arrive hugging all of us with that happy smile she always had on her face
"Want to get a drink ? There's a Starbucks around the corner"
"Uh duh ?"
"Do we get one for Aryan and Dior ?"
"No?"
"Don't be mean Walker, yes" Leah hit walkers arm shaking her head
"Alright I know what Dior always gets but no clue about Aryan" Charlie said looking at the menu card
"I don't think I've ever seen Aryan drink Starbucks has he ever been to one ?" Leah questioned also taking a look at the card
Aryan had been to Starbucks, we had gone together a bunch of times and obviously I knew exactly what he liked, it had become my favourite too, I used to always steal his
"Let's just get him a Frappuccino or something everyone likes that" Charlie shrugged going to the back of the line
"I know what he likes I'll get it" I muttered standing behind Leah
"Even better" I nodded a bit trying to shake all the memories that came bubbling up away
Dior and Aryan arrived a little later, I hugged Dior tightly and avoided Aryan as much as I could just following him with my eyes
Our eyes met a few times, just quietly observing each other from afar not daring to get too close
I kept my distance from Aryan for the evening, always sticking to Leah and Dior
"Why did I have to hear about your break up through Aryan ?" Dior hissed quietly to me
"I don't know, we weren't really talking much and I didn't want to just randomly text you oh yeah I broke up with him just fyi"
"Well why weren't we talking much ?"
"I don't know"
"You gotta spill the whole thing later girl"
"Well let's talk about that later" I dismissed the conversation slipping my phone out, I really didn't want to talk about the break up and I knew they would find my reason stupid and invalid
We got dinner at a restaurant before heading to our hotel, we were staying at the same one we stayed at for season one which was really exciting for me since I was dying to see the sky from that roof view again
The rooms were again split into Dior, Leah and I sharing one room and the three boys the room across from ours
"I call the bed by the window this time, I had the shitty bed last time" I yelled opening the door and rushing to the good bed
"That's so mean, I'm the oldest why do I get the shitty bed ?" Dior complained placing her bags by the bed "anyways, now that we're between us, spill"
"Diorrr"
"Oh come on, it's not healthy eating all of it into yourself"
"Don't make her if she doesn't want to" Leah interrupted us looking from one to the other
"Of course not, I would never force you Belle, you know that" I sighed and sat down on the floor leaning against my bed and grabbing a water bottle to take a sip out
"Well what do you want to know ?"
"Everything, when ? Where ? How ? When ?"
"It was when I was in LA for the press tour of the baby-sitters club, I stayed a day longer than the other girls and..." I shrugged looking at the two girls
"Wait so you just went on to giving interviews the day after you broke up with him ?"
"Yeah"
"That's badass"
"Wait, but, why did you break up with him ? I mean last time I checked you two were crazy in love" Leah pitched in and I could genuinely feel my chest hurting at that
"It was just too much" I spoke quietly looking at the bottle in my hands "Darcy had just... passed and the whole distance between him and I had been driving me insane for a long time and I just, couldn't do it anymore" while what I told them was true i purposefully left out the whole me being too much thing knowing that they would say something against that
They both moved to sit on either side of me and wrapped their arms around
"Well that sounds like shit"
"Yeah, what are you gonna do right ? We're young, we're still finding ourselves, maybe this just wasn't supposed to work"
Authors note:
What's up everyone how is everyone doing ?
