I woke up feeling WAY better than a couple days ago. My sinuses were cleared, my head didn't hurt, and my throat didn't feel like there was tiny people stomping around in there.
The sun was shining in my face and I couldn't help but smile. I had a feeling that today was gonna be a great day.
I didn't see John next to me so I checked my phone for anything. Not surprised, I found a text from him that said "Hey babe, I had to run to a meeting real quick, be back later XOXO"
I hopped out of bed and went into the bathroom. I stripped off my clothes and hopped in the shower. I washed my hair and my body.
When I was done with my shower I went into my walk in closet and searched for something to wear. Since I was feeling great today, I decided to wear a short, pink, flowy dress. I put on my undergarments and then my dress. I went back into the bathroom and did my makeup. I didn't want to have bucket loads of makeup on so I did it very lightly. I decided to let my hair air dry.
I went downstairs to grab some breakfast. I just grabbed a granola bar and sat down.
I turned in the TV and waited for John to come home.
About an hour later I heard a car door shut. I ran to the door, like a little kid, and looked to see who it was. To my surprise, it was John. I unlocked the door and walked outside. I didn't want to cause to much of commotion so I did it like an adult. I crossed my arms and walked towards him. He looked at me and smiled. I smiled back. When I reached him I gave him a hug. He hugged me back, but his hug was longer and tighter. I didn't mind.
We broke the hug and I put my arm around his back and walked, along side, to the front door.
"Hey" I said
"Hey" he said back while sitting down.
"How was your meeting?" I asked while sitting down next to him
"Uh, it was fine." He tried to avoid eye contact.
"What's wrong?" I turned his face towards me and looked into his eyes.
"Nothing, just tired." I didn't buy it for a second.
"Yeah, why don't you tell me the real reason?" I was getting worried. Something was up with him.
"Katy, I did, I'm just tired." He said like he was forcing himself to say that. He tried to get up but I grabbed his wrist and made him sit back down.
"What?" He asked irritated
"What do you mean "what"?" I was now starting to get annoyed by him not telling me what's wrong with him.
"Just leave me alone" now I knew something was up.
He tried to get up again but I pulled his hand down. He sat back down and I pulled myself on top of his lap. I put my hands on each side of his face.
"John, I know something's wrong, now tell me or I'm not getting off."
He looked me in the eyes. I took my hands off of his face and he leaned in and kissed me. This time he put both of his hands on my face. After about a minute he stopped. I was confused. He took me off of him and got up. He walked upstairs.
"Wait, John!" I yelled while running after him. I went upstairs to find him pacing around our bedroom. I've never seen him like this, so worked up over something.
"John, please" I stood in the doorway. He stopped pacing and looked at me.
"You really want to know?" He asked.
I nodded my head.
He sighed. "Come here" he sat down on the end of the bed and patted next to him. I walked over to him and sat down.
"Katy," he faced my body. "When I went to my meeting, my manager told me something." I knew what was coming and I dreaded hearing it.
"Katy, I have to leave for 6 weeks." He grabbed my hand. I faced forward. I didn't know what to do or think. I stood up and walked out of the room.
"Katy?" I motioned for him to wait. I went into the hall bathroom and shut the door.
I was devastated. I heard John walk towards the door and knock.
"Katy, please open the door" he said in a soothing tone.
"Hold on" I tried to make it sound like I was fine but it came out a little lounder than a whisper. It took everything I had to not let the tears that were building up in my eyes fall. I heard another knock, that made me jump. I opened the door and looked in Johns eyes. They were full of sorrow, fear, and sadness. I walked up to him and hugged him.
"When are you leaving?" I asked
"In 4 days" he said while stroking my hair. My heart sank lower than it already was. I remember him having to leave before, but I don't remember it hurting this bad. I looked up and he looked down. I didn't want him to feel like he can't go so I perk up.
"Hey, this is a good thing, you will get to be with your fans." I said trying to be happy.
"Uh yeah I guess, but I won't be with you" he was making it very difficult to be happy. I stopped hugging him and said "yeah, I know, but you'll be with your fans, who's most important?"
He looked at me with a confused look.
"You"
