Chapter 9:
Thank God For AC
It's been about a week and a half since I found out that I was pregnant. I was sleeping soundly when all of a sudden I feel like I am going to vomit.
"Great. Just what I need" I thought to myself
I jump out of bed as quick as my vomit filled body will let me. I begin running to the bathroom that just happens to be at the very front of the bus, and the bedroom I sleep in is at the very back of the bus. That's just my luck, though. Fortunately, I make it right in time, for three seconds later I empty out my stomach.
I guess Austin felt me jump out of bed because I heard him running to the bathroom.
"Holy cheese nuggets.. Are you ok?" Austin asked concerned trying to keep me calmed at the same time, though.
"Yeah. I'm fine. Just a little morning sickness." I replied back cleaning myself up
After I got done cleaning myself up after I threw up, Austin carried me back, bridal style, to our bed, and we laid there until we got to the next stop on the tour. Austin got into his clothes that he was doing sound check in, and he picked me up out of the bed and kissed my forehead. I got dressed and walked off the bus hand in hand with Austin; AC, Rob, and Zach were right behind us. We walked through the hallway to the dressing room area. We entered Austin's dressing room, and I fell out on the couch.
*a few hours later*
I guess it was time for Austin to go to meet and greets because I was awoken by a pair of lips attached to my forehead and a very familiar voice whispering in my ear.
"I'm going to meet and greets. I'll be back soon sweetheart. I love you."
I must've dozed back off for a few more minutes because when I opened my eyes nobody was in the room except Zach.
"Hey.. Zach where's everybody at?" I asked curiously.
At meet and greets, but AC told me to stay with you until you woke up. Then, he told me to bring you outside with the rest of them." Zach eagerly answered my question
I hopped up off the couch, and I started walking towards the door. Zach followed fast behind me. He quickly grabbed the door from my grip, and he held the door while I walked out. I started walking towards the gate. I sped up when I saw the guys. I practically ran to AC and hugged him. I honestly don't know why, but I did. He hugged back unhesitantly.
"How you doin.. Girl?" AC asked very enthusiastically
"I'm good. I have a headache, though." I answered back
"Want Advil or something?" Rob chirped in
"That would be awesome" I said while winking and chuckling
A few seconds later Rob handed me the Advil. I took it and within 30 minutes my head was already feeling significantly better.
About 25 minutes, Austin came back from meet and greets. He chilled with me on the couch until he had to go backstage to get ready to perform. The boys and I usually stayed in the dressing room until Austin had about 5 minutes until show time. It was almost time, so we walked to backstage.
"3 MINUTES UNTIL SHOW TIME MAHONE" stage manager shouted
I did the normal, and I gave Austin the biggest koala hug ever, and a giant kiss. After that was over, he ran on stage and performed for his wonderful fans.
I started feeling nauseated and dizzy again, so I walked over to AC to tell him how I felt.
"AC.. I feel like I'm going to puke again." I stated with an aggravated tone
"Okay.. There's no where to sit so if you like have to puke, just do it on the floor and I'll help you, ok." He said kind of panicky.
I stood with him for the rest of the time. During Next To You I started feeling worse. I crossed my feet and put my hand over my stomach. AC must have realized that I was feeling funny because he asked if I was okay. I told him I was fine even though that was the biggest lie, ever. Austin was almost done for the night; he had two songs left. I was praying that it could hold off for two songs; long enough for me to get on the bus, but that definitely didn't happen. My body decided to make the biggest fool of itself and puke up, what seems like, what I've eaten for the past week.
"Wow. This is already living death." Is all I could think at the present moment.
AC helped me clean myself up. He went to the room, and be got me a cold bottle of water and a cold cloth. I put it on my forehead and just rested my head on his shoulder as Austin finished up.
Wow. Thank God for AC.
