I woke up because of the light streaming through the window. I looked to Lily's side of the room but saw that she wasn't there, she must have stayed over at Josh's. I sit up and saw my phone still on the floor, I got up and walked towards it, picking it up. I looked at the time and saw that it was already 10:30am but underneath the time I saw all my notifications from Twitter and Instagram. Tears threaten to spill from my eyes. I took a deep breathe and headed over to my closet to get ready. I really need someone to talk to and I know talking with my parents will make it better.
I grab my purse and start walking towards the student parking lot. I get in my car and I'm off towards the big highway.
I turn on the cruise control on my car and decide to turn on the radio. Instead of listening to the same station I always do, I shuffle through the stations and come upon a guys saying the words "5 Seconds of Summer"
"Okay this next song is by 5 Seconds of Summer and it's called 'Don't Stop'"
I listen to the song and I can't help but wonder what Michael is doing right at the moment.
I stop at a gas station to pump gas. I pull up at a parking spot. I decide to text Michael.
Me: "Hi Michael, just thought I'd text you to check up. How are you and the guys? Let me know if you need anything"
Before I could change gears to head back on the road, my phone beeps.
Michael: "ERIKA I MISS YOU <3
The guys are alright but I'm a mess without you! I need you with meeee :(
How are you doing???"
Me: "I MISS YOU TOO I COULDN'T SLEEP BECAUSE I MISSED YOU AND people were being mean....but forget it, it doesn't matter. I'm on my way home to see my parents. I'll call you later <3"
My phone beeped again but I didn't answer it. I just wanted to get home.
Michael's POV
"UGH!" I grunt after I read Erika's last text.
"Hey what's wrong?!" Ask Luke looking up from his phone.
"Erika's upset and it's because of some fans not liking her. I'm guessing they might have attacked her last night."
"Did you check Twitter?"
"No, but I think I'm gonna get on it to check"
After being on Twitter for 5 minutes I saw all the hatred towards Erika. I wasn't gonna accept people being mean to the girl I most loved. I was gonna do something about it.
I decided to tweet it.
"I don't like how Erika is being treated my some of you. She did nothing wrong to receive that type of hatred."
"She's an incredibly sweet and caring person and if some of you can't see that then what a shame."
"I'm not gonna deal with people like that."
I tweeted what I thought about all this and hope that it would all end. I need to give Erika a hug. Let her know that everything is going to be okay.
Erika's POV
After an hour later I pulled up on my drive way and got out of my car. I opened my front door and automatically could smell my moms food. Sue my maltipoo came running to the door barking. My mom came from the kitchen and gasped when she saw me.
"Your here! Why didn't you tell me you were coming?!" She said
I gave her a weird look
"I thought dad had told you! I called him last night that I was coming because...uhm..I needed to talk to you guys"
Now she gave me a weird look.
My mom and I sat down in the living room. I had Sue on my lap and we were waiting for my dad to get home from the grocery store.
A few minutes later my dad showed up and he gave me a big hug. We sat in the living room in silence, until my dad spoke up.
"So tell us about this guy" he said curiously
My moms eyes grew wide. "What guy?!"
