It had been two days and I hadn't heard anything from Chris since he left that note. I felt like my heart was breaking all over again and Chris didn't realise what he was doing to me.
I tried to call him but it always when to voicemail, at first I thought he was done with me, until I got a text from him asking to just give him some space while he sorted this stuff out, so that's what I did.School was terrible, all anybody was talking about was Chris and Jade. Liam had to physically restrain me from attacking Jade when she just full out laughed at me and told me Chris got what he deserved for being a dick to her.
It was obvious lies and I knew deep down that Chris' fans wouldn't believe the articles one bit, especially the ones who have met him before.
I was English class when my phone buzzed with a message from Chris, all it contained was a link that I clicked and waited for it to load.
It was a twitlonger that Chris had posted on his twitter and I made sure my teacher wasn't looking before I read what it said.
"@/ChrisColfer: If you want to know the truth about what happened at that school, then read this because this is the truth. A few days before Jade (the girl who sold this story) asked for a picture and autograph, she and her friends attacked [Y/N], who is really important to me - the attack was really bad that they left [Y/N] lying there on the floor passed out. I lost my temper when I saw Jade and her friends and they acted like nothing happened. So when she asked for a picture and autograph, of course I refused because would you be nice to somebody who beat the living hell out of somebody who meant the world to you? The answer is NO and this was supposed to be me apologising, but I'm not going to apologise for what I said because I would do it all over again if it meant that [Y/N] knew that I was always going to be there for support. I don't regret what I did and if that makes me look like a bad person then so be it, but I would do it over and over again all in a heartbeat to make sure [Y/N] was going to be safe. And as for Jade who I know will be reading this.. You may have gotten money for this story, but now everybody knows what you're really like."
I read the long message over and over again not quite believing what I was reading. I for sure thought Chris was going to apologise for what happened, but here he was going out of his way to make sure everybody knew how much I meant to him and how much he cared for me.
I was feeling quite emotional as I sent Chris a message with shaky hands.
[OUTGOING MESSAGE] You mean so much to me, you're my whole and words can't describe how much you mean to me. I'll give you as much time as you need, I'll be here whenever you're ready to talk again. Xxxxxx

If the school wasn't talking about the argument between Jade and Chris, the seniors were talking about their plans for after graduation. Liam had been accepted into NYU and I was so proud of him. Most people had been accepted into university's and I was beating myself up that I didn't apply for any at all. Deadlines had all passed and I couldn't go and apply for anything else now.
I came home from school to take a shower and when I got out, I looked to see I had a voicemail on my phone. I frowned because anybody who knew me, knew not to call me because they wouldn't get any reply from me. Every stuck to messaging because at least I could reply to them that way rather than ignore them.
I listened to the voicemail and couldn't believe what I was hearing. "Hi [Y/N], this is Mandy from Queen's bakery. I'm calling in regards to the internship you applied for at our bakery. We did try calling you but had no reply, but today we received a call from somebody named Chris explaining your situation and we completely understand. So we would like to offer you an interview. What I'd like you to do is email us if you're still interested and we will sort a date out for an interview. I'll look forward to hearing from you [Y/N]."
I couldn't believe my ears. I was being offered an interview and it was all because of Chris. He was moving heavens and earth for me, my love for him just grew and grew every single day.
Immediately, I turned on my laptop so I could compose an email to the bakery explaining that I was still interested in the internship.
I wouldn't pass this opportunity up, I was going to try my hardest to get this. It would be a new start for me, I would be able to get out of this city, and I would be so close to Chris.

I got an email back, and the interview was set up for next Friday. I was really nervous but this was a massive opportunity for me and I would do everything in my power to make sure that I got it. I owed everything to Chris right now, and I made sure to let him know that.
[OUTGOING MESSAGE] I know you said you needed some space, but I have my interview next Friday and I'll be staying in the city for the weekend if you're free to meet up? Xx
[INCOMING MESSAGE: CHRIS] Congratulations beautiful. Where are you staying? Xx
[OUTGOING MESSAGE] Probably try and find a motel if you know any? Xx
[INCOMING MESSAGE: CHRIS] Or you could come and stay with me. I miss you and you could stay the whole weekend. Xx[OUTGOING MESSAGE] I'd love to, if it isn't to much trouble for you? I miss you too. Xx
[INCOMING MESSAGE: CHRIS] You're never to much trouble for me. I can't wait to see you baby, see you soon. Xx
