Adopted By Matthew Espinosa (Hayes Grier)

Chapter 35

CHARLOTTE POV.

I just arrived in Chicago. To be honest, I'm really not that thrilled to be here. I don't really see the point of travelling all the way here, to go home in a short time. I decided just to act happy, but inside I really wasn't. "Are you ready?" Dad asked as we walked into the hotel room. "Yep," I lied.

"Now Char, you have your own room next door to us, is that alright?" Dad asked still holding my suitcase. "Yes! Can I go there now?" I asked with a huge smile on my face. "Sure, guys I'll be back," Dad said before walking out of the room with me following him.

"Here you go," Dad said as he place my suitcase on the queen sized bed. "Thanks," I said walking to the balcony. "We will be next door, so if you need anything here's a spare key, I have a key to your room just in case," Dad said as he started to walk to the door. "Thank you, I really mean it," I said with a smile. Next thing dad left the room. The room was massive! I felt kinda lonely, but I liked to be alone.

HAYES POV.

Charlotte hasn't said a single word to me since we got on the plane. She is taking this fake 'breakup' quite good to say the least. "So how's things going?" Nash asked trying to make small talk as Matt was showing Charlotte her room. "Okay I guess," I said as I sat on the bed going through my twitter. "Be honest dude, I know there is still something going on with Charlotte and you," He said as he sat down beside me.

"Really, nothing is going on," I lied as I looked up from my phone trying to make it sound realistic. I hated the fact that we had to hide our relationship, I just wanted to yell to the whole world that she was my girl, but I couldn't. Nash decided to leave the conversation so he just sat on his phone as well. "How is Char?" Nash asked as Matt walked in the room. "She isn't her self," He said as he sat on his bed. "Things will get better," Nash said with a fate smile. For some reason I felt guilty. She was fine before we got back together. It made me kinda think that I did something.

"Were getting food, want any?" Matt asked. "Nah, I'm good," I said still on my phone. "Okay, be back soon," Nash said walking out of the room shutting the door behind him. I jumped up immediately and put my phone in my pocket. I took the key I had and left my room to go to Charlotte's room. I gently knocked on the door.

"Hey?" She said giving me a weird look as she opened the door half way. "Hey, can I come in?" I asked. "Um-sure," She hesitated before she opened the door wider for me to enter. "So what's up?" She said as she shut the door. "I just wanted to see you," I said taking a step towards her as she took a step away from me. "Okay Charlotte, what's wrong?" I asked as I stood there. "Nothing," She said looking at the ground.

"Your lying to me, I can tell," I said as I took a step towards her as she was still looking at the ground. "This isn't-um, it's just-it's not working," She said playing with her hands. "What do you mean?" I asked with a confused look on my face. "It's over," She said as she looked up at me.

CHARLOTTE POV.

I just couldn't do it! Hayes was being so sweet and thoughtful, what is a relationship when one person is giving more than the other? And I just felt I wasn't giving as much as Hayes was. "It's over," I said after I lifted my head up off of the ground after staring at it intensely for the past minute. "You have to be joking right?!" He said looking at me with hurt on his face.

"You can't keep doing this, if I walk away I am not coming back," He continued to say seriously. "I know," I said as I looked back at the ground. "Good," He said walking away slamming the door behind him. I don't even know what was going on between us. Things just weren't that great, and besides, I felt really guilty for dating Hayes behind everyone's backs!

I just couldn't lie to them anymore, to myself. I just sat on the bed thinking for a while until Nash walked into my room. "We're going out for dinner," He said standing at the door. "Okay," I said not moving. Wow, I must of been sitting on this bed for a while. "That means you too Charlotte," He said leaning up against the door fame. "Right," I said as I jumped off of the bed walking out of the hotel room shutting the door behind me.

We decided to go to this little Café that was only down the road from the hotel. Hayes was giving me death stares 90 percent of the time, and when he wasn't he was getting pictures with fans and everything. "What do you guys want?" Dad asked after we looked at the menu's. We all told him what we wanted and then he ordered. Hayes was still giving me stars which killed.

I kept making mistakes and I knew that this one was a mistake that I couldn't redo. "Hey dudes!" A boy said as he stood beside Hayes giving him the bro handshake. He was pretty cute to say the least with his tan skin and brown eyes with his chocolate hair.

"How you 've been?" Hayes asked as the boy sat down in a seat beside Hayes and Nash. "pretty busy, I have been recording a lot," He said with a adorable smile. "Who's this?" He asked as he looked over at me. "This is Charlotte," Nash said. "Oh the one you adopted?" He questioned as he looked at me. "Yeah," Dad said. "Hi, I'm Daniel, Daniel Skye to be exact," He said putting his hand over the table to shake mine with a smile on his face. "Hi," I said with a small smile on my face as I shook his soft hand.

 could see Hayes staring as we shook hands so I pulled away. I could see jealousy in his eyes. We weren't dating anymore, so I didn't get him. Maybe it was just a guy thing. Who knows. We were there for around an hour talking to Daniel before he had to leave. "It was really nice talking to you guys, especially you Charlotte," He said with a smile before he walked away. "You too," I said as I felt my face heat up. "Lets go Charlotte," Dad said angrily as he stood up.

"What's wrong?" I asked confusedly as I stood up following the other guys. "Lets just go," He said giving me a look saying 'you know what'. But honestly I didn't know what. We walked back to the hotel in complete silence, before we got to the hotel lobby where there were a ton of girls just standing there until they saw the guys and started screaming.

They signed a couple of things before we walked up to our room taking the elevator where it became silent once again. We got to our rooms and dad and Hayes just walked in their room without saying a single word to me. "Good night Charlotte," Nash said as he stood there looking at me. "Why are they angry?" I asked still confused. "Because you were flirting," He said acting like I just asked the dumbest question. "No I didn't!" I said totally denying it. "Whatever Charlotte, goodnight," He said before he walked into his room and shut the door.

Great, now everyone hates me. I wasn't flirting, well not on purpose anyway. I decided just to go to bed. I was exhausted from travelling, besides I was just naturally a tired person. I got changed into pyjamas and layed in bed for a while. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't stop thinking about Daniel. Stop it Charlotte! You still love Hayes, well you should. Shouldn't I?
