Billie
"who are you texting?" i asked curiously.
"the girl from the hotel,Amaya" she said with a smile.
I huffed frustrated and looked away. "so it's more interesting to talk to her than to me now, isn't it?"
"Billie,I've been with you all day and I still am baby,I'm just replying to her texts" she sighed.
"you've been on that phone texting her on the flight too,what's so special about this girl?" I glared at her.
"there's nothing special,she's just a friend and I want to talk to-" she paused when her voice raised, "..my friend" I could see the frustration and anger growing in her.
"whatever" I changed my seat to the one in the back. Tina didn't come after me,she just looked back at me every minute or two.
I could see the insta chat open on her phone everytime she turned with her phone in hand.
She told me she loved me and now she's texting another girl. What if she talks to everybody the way she talks to me? What if everything she said was a lie?
I've been told the phrase "she's just a friend" enough. Everytime I heard that,later on I would find out about my partners cheating on me,so her saying that made me feel even more jealous and angry.
My brain wouldn't stop coming up with different scenarios of Tina leaving me for others. I got a severe headache from overthinking and felt like crying.
I know I'm being possessive,because I'm possessive and I know it's not good. I wasn't this possessive over my exes,I never felt the need to,even though I should've. But it's different with Tina,I fell deep,too deep for me to not care about her texting somebody with a grin,my jaw clenched thinking about it.
I saw Tina walking up to me slowly and sighed.
"what do you want?" I glowered at her. Deep inside I felt bad for my tone and glare. I couldn't help but want to hurt her for hurting me. I wanted to know if she really cared.
She put her phone in my lap, "you can go through it if you want to" she half whispered. Her cheeks wet and her eyes reddish as well as her nose.
My heart clenched when I looked at her. "no,no I don't-" my voice cracked,I sighed heavily holding back tears. There was a silence for a few minutes and when I was sure that I won't burst into tears i said,"I'm sorry.." and kissed her temple softly.
"you will never trust me,will you?" she asked slowly laying dowm on my lap.
"I trust you baby," I stroked her hair,she shifted.
"I just feel like you're gonna leave me all the time,because everything is too good,you're too good" I sighed. "I'm insecure.. that's a me thing. It's not because you do something wrong baby, I promise."
She closed her eyes and sighed heavily, "it's okay.." she played with my fingers,intertwined them with hers.

We were in the hotel,I was changing Tina's bandages while she was eating. We have to leave soon to go to an interview.
"are you sure you wanna come? You'll have to wait while I do the interview" I asked for the third time.
"yes,Billie,I am,what else am i supposed to do in here?I'm boredd" she hissed when I pressed a bit too hard on the wound while applying the ointment,I blew on the wound immediately to lighten the pain. The cuts have gotten better,but still not good enough to stop wearing the bandages.
"if you say so,my love" I wrapped her knees with bandages and got up yawning.
"are you tired?" she got up and grabbed my hand kissing it.
I smiled,"no,I'm all good,ready for the day"
"good" she pecked me on the lips.

"I love you." she said out of nowhere while we were walking up to the uber.
"I love you more." I kissed her cheek sheepeshly,scared to kiss on the lips in public.
"now that's a lie." she chuckled.
We got in the uber. The road was silent,not awkward silence though,it was a comfortable silence. Tina was looking out the window and I was looking at her,admiring her.
We arrived at the establishment,it was a very cozy place with different drawing on the walls and paintings hanging all over,the curtains were the color of dark blue with black and white dots and all together it looked incredible.
"this place is gorgeous" Tina whispered to me,I nodded.
The interview went on well,even though it was boring as hell. Tina would make silly faces behind the camera all the time and i had to hold back laughter by biting my lip.
The interviewer was a weird looking guy,with black clothing and literally no hair. His eyebrows were bright orange and he had a mustache that was black. He looked funny and the first I saw him I couldn't hold back a laughter.
I liked the atmosphere of the room,the guy's style,but the questions were ass,not gonna lie.

"finally!" I screamed getting out of that interesting place with boring people.
"it was so long and soooo boring aghh" Tina snorted.
"I told youu" I cupped her cheek. "I'm gonna take you out for being a cutie" I kissed her.
"ew cringe" she said before kissing me back.
It didn't take long before we heard a little camera snapp and then it grew to multiple camera snapps. My heart clenched with anxiety,I pulled away immediately. I saw paparazzi,of fucking course. I let go of Tina's hand instinctively.
How could I be so stupid? We were right next to the interview establishment. Of course paparazzi was going to be here and I knew it.
"Billie is that you girlfriend?" "Billie are you gay?" "how long have you been dating?" and so on. Nasty questions were spilling out of their mouthes non-stop.
I grabbed Tina's hand and ran out of the crowd towards the car,with Sully behind securing us.
"fuck,fuck,fuck!" I screamed as I got in the car.
Tina looked at me concerned,but didn't say anything.
