Push me away

"Hello?"

"Hey." I smile when I hear his voice. There was a grunt, and then the sound of his bed sheets moving around.

"Hey, handsome. What are you doing. Thought you were watching a movie with Lover Boy?"

"Ah...about that, yeah. Uh, we broke up. Just now."

Andy went silent on the other side. I felt uncomfortable with the silence and looked at the paused movie on the TV. "It's okay, though... we are friends still, nothing really changed other than the title...and no more couple stuff."

"Was it because of me..?"

"Yes...and no! It was a mix of both of us. He knew something was up, but he was just happy I told him! Trust me, he isn't upset with you. He actually is encouraging me to pursue you... but that's not going to happen anytime soon."

Andy made a small huff of amusement. "And why not? Am I too sexy for you?"

"Quite the opposite, really." I laughed. "But no, it's just too soon... I don't want another relationship right now. Too much commitment on tour can make me stressed out. Especially starting a relationship on tour."

"Understandable, really. I think that's for the best."

"Yeah...hey, at the next rest stop, do you want to come on our bus..? I think I'm going to need some help sleeping tonight."

I could hear Andy's smile from the other end. "Of course, handsome. Anything for you."

I smiled and let a small noise fall from my lips as I hid my face in my hands, embarrassed but also happy to be in this situation.

Noah walked into the room again and sat down next to me. He looked at me with a smile and pointed to the TV, asking if I wanted to continue watching the movie. I nod and look at my phone.

"Hey, I'll call you later. I'm gonna finish this movie with Noah."

"Okay, I'll talk to you soon. Bye."

"Bye!" I hung up and put my phone down. Noah leaned against my side and pushed play on the movie. I smiled as we watched the movie, him laying on me, us practically cuddling, as if nothing changed.

Once the movie was over, Noah checked the time. "It's almost time for dinner, we should be stopping soon though, do you want to wait, or should I cook something?"

"We should order something to the truck stop so we can get it when we get there."

"Rem, that's not a good idea. Love it but not a good one."

I whine and lay down on the couch. "Can you make something then?"

"Sure, what do you want?"

"I don't care. Just make sure it's something edible."

"Yes, sir."

Noah walked away just as my phone buzzed. I looked and saw a message from Andy. He said his bus was already at the stop and to let him know when we got there.

After a few minutes, Noah came into the room with a small sandwich. He handed it to me and smiled. "Nutella sandwich."

My eyes widened as I looked at the sandwich. "God, you're amazing! Thank you!" I smile and take a bite of the sandwich and moan at the taste.

"Whoever invented Nutella...I'm going to marry them."

He laughed and ruffled my hair. The bus finally came to a stop before I even had the chance to open my phone, Andy walked into the bus with Kellin. Noah and I were still on the couch, and I had Nutella on my face.

"Look at you, messy eater through, and through." Kellin says, laughing and taking a picture of me.

"Shut up, at least I didn't drop spaghetti all over my white shirt on picture day."

"YOU PUSHED MY PLATE, IT WASN'T MY FAULT!" Kellin shouted, which caused me to giggle as I cleaned my face. "So...I take it everything is okay between you two?" Kellin asks, this time in a calmer voice.

"What do you mean?" Noah asked softly.

"Did...did Emerson not talk to you?" Kellin said, looking at me.

"He did?"

"Did you not talk to Noah?"

"I did?"

"Can someone explain?" Noah laughed awkwardly.

"It's about the breakup. The issue for that... but everything is fine between us. There was never an issue."

"Oh..I just thought -"

"Noah accepts it. He didn't have any issues, and everything was fine." I say before standing up and walking to my bunk.

"Hey, Handsome. Slow down." I turn and look at Andy. He was smiling softly at me before running a hand through my hair.

"Kellin was just curious. He was looking out for you."

"What involves me and Noah should be a concern for anyone else."

"Yes, that's true. But he was the one who saw you coming from my room."

"You knew he saw?" I asked with a slight hint of upset emotions.

"He asked me about it. I said it was nothing, and I was just helping you calm down like I used to when we were kids."

"Whatever..."

I climbed into my bunk and threw my shoes out. Andy stayed where he was before sighing and climbing into the bunk with me.

"And Noah knows about everything?"

"Yes."

"I don't want to any issues with him. I'm just taking precautions."

"Nothing it happening between us anyway. This isn't more than us being friends." I mumble and cuddle into his chest. He sighed and wrapped his arms around me.

"Okay. I understand that. But I don't want any issues later on either."

I laughed and shook my head as I looked up at him. "If you heard how Noah was talking to me about everything, you would realize how relaxed he is about the whole thing. He wants us to be basic white girls who overshare after every little thing that happens between you and me. He wants all the juicy details."

Andy cringed and shook his head. "You better not."

"No? I can't sit in a pink room with Noah on a pink bed, gushing over how I'm getting really good dick and how big you are?" I laughed.

"You're still a virgin. Don't act like you understand the words that just came out of your mouth."

"Make me understand them then."

"One day, I will. And one day, you'll be screaming because of me. You will feel like you're being ripped apart, and you know what? You'll be crying for more."

My jaw dropped as I looked a Andy. "Okay..."

He laughed and leaned down to kiss my head and ruffle my hair.

"Let's just relax for now."
