I woke up and Chris was still holding me and playing with my hair. I just stayed like that and kept my breathing steady so he wouldn't notice that I woke up. I snuggled closer to him and he held me tighter, "I know you're faking." He laughed.

"Dang it." I mumbled smiling. He kissed the top of my head and rubbed my thigh because it was over him, it's comfortable...

He ran his thumb over my scars and sighed, "These are my fault.."

"Not all of them... The first time was because I was mad at myself... And you helped me through that."

"But now there's more, and I didn't help you, I'm the reason they're there.."

"Chris please stop, I don't feel like crying right now." I said and grabbed a fistful of his shirt. He rubbed my back and squeezed me, I messed with my sleeves and took a deep breath.

Chris pulled out his phone and took a quick picture of us,

@WeeklyChris: "I was reunited with my Princess today :)"

People started asking what was wrong and why I left the tour and why Chris seemed off at the last stop and why we're both home now, "You wanna explain?" He asked, I nodded.

"YouNow?" He asked opening the app on his phone, I nodded again and we sat up and I rubbed my eyes and rested my head on Christian's shoulder. We both tweeted that we were going on younow to explain everything and Chris tweeted the link.

The room started filling up and we were asking them questions until it hit a steady amount and didn't change much. One comment caught my eye and I sat up and looked at the screen,

"What happened? Is Nikki pregnant?" I read aloud. Chris gave such a weird look I laughed so hard I cried, "No, I'm not pregnant-"

"She's definitely not!" Chris said sounding scared which made me laugh harder.

"So umm, you all want to know what happened and why we left the tour... I'm sure you all know I left first and that was because at the Seattle show, right after Chris and I got off stage I got a phone call from my brother saying that I needed to come home and that my mom was in the hospital-"

Immediately all the comments started asking if everything was okay.

"Yeah everything is okay right now. So umm, they wouldn't let Chris come with me which is-"

"That's why I was acting so off.." He interrupted.

"Yep! So when I got home my brother came and picked me up and we went straight to the hospital and my mom was all banged up because she was in a car accident and it impacted the drivers side, she's lucky to be alive.."

I started tearing up and covered my face, Chris wrapped his arms around me from the side and kissed my head.

"She's just stressed..." Chris said, I'm assuming he was reading comments.

"So anyway," Chris continued, "they wouldn't let me go with her and once I dropped her off at the airport and got back to the venue I totally freaked out on Jeff and then he wouldn't let me preform for the rest of the night..

Why did I freak out? Because she needed me and I couldn't stand being without her, she's my other half,"

I kissed his cheek and rested my head on his shoulder, I read the comments and smiled because people were commenting "goals" and "awww" and I laughed really hard at one, "MAKE BABIES"

"Wanna make babies, Chris?" I laughed.

He shook his head really fast, "NO NO NO NO NOOO!"

I kept laughing, "Me neither."

"That's not happening until we're married!" Chris sounded so scared and it was hilarious.

"What makes you think we're getting married?" I smirked at him.

"I love you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm determined to make that happen." He smiled and kissed my hand.

I looked at the comments, "Wait, why is Chris home then? Oh! Like, two days after I got home they finally let Chris come see me because they couldn't stand the constant crying and whining between the two of us." I laughed.

"Will you be going back on tour? I have to see how my mom ends up.."

"And I'm not leaving her." Chris said seriously and rubbed my arm.

We stayed on younow for a little bit longer and then got off.

"Wanna go out?"

"Where?" I asked.

"Let's go see Paper Towns."

"I love you!" I yelled and we stood up.

Chris grabbed his keys and wallet. I went to grab my wallet but he grabbed my hand and intertwined our fingers, "I got this."
