WORLD OF OUR OWN

EPILOGUE

TOBY'S P.O.V

"Charger, checked?"

"Yes!"

"Protools? Mini speaker?"

"Checked!"

"Extra jeans?"

"Done!"

"Good."

I smiled at her. What a best girlfriend I could ever ask for. She managed to get us all prepared with our giant suitcases. It's our second U.S. headlining tour, started today. And yes it's getting better. Abigail has just finished her last day of school and has had graduation day two days ago. So she came with us. See? Told you, it kept getting better.

"Connor?" She shouted to my brother's room. "Oh gosh. I bet he sleeps again. Babe, could you please bring the cases downstairs first? I'm gonna check him."

"As long as I concern you're my girlfriend." I pecked her lips.

"Don't do PDA. Haha. Connor needs help." She messed with my hair.

"Alright alright. Knock Riley's too please. They're both so late."

"Okay."

I was waiting downstairs with Mom and Dad til it's time for us to leave. Our driver and some crew has been waiting outside. I helped them all with the cases, including hers. Soon we kissed the parents goodbye, I hopped into the van.

Fast forward to LA, our first stop. Lonnie and James have been waiting at the airport's arrival to next drive us to the hotel, and then venue. First show tomorrow night. Today we had interview appointments.

"Here baby, you're new bunk, in case you need some power nap." I gave her a walk in this tour bus.

"And yours?"

"Above Riley's." I pointed to mine. "Is it okay? You want to move?"

"No it's totally fine. This looks comfy."

"Haha. It is. Trust me."

"So, where we headed?"

"James said to Radio Disney." I threw myself to the back couch.

"Oh. Great. Hey tour life is amazing."

"Double the amazing because you're here." I kissed her. "Have I told you how amazing you are?"

"Yes, pretty much everyday, so please now leave it." Abby smirked. She made me kiss her once again.

"Radio Disney it is!" James' natural habit, shouting, has just started.

"You heard the boss. C'mon." I rolled my eyes.

Our dear friends in Radio Disney were all incredible. They worked in a great manner and very professional. We didn't stay too long in there because long list of other appointment. Radio Disney let us loose in half an hour. Then Lonnie drove us further to the next meeting.

"Next up, Daddy?" Connor asked James.

"Kiis." He read the note.

I got cut in the throat. After six month, I didn't see today's coming. Kiis meant Cara. Meant Abigail and Cara would meet today in a certain way.

"Babe." She shook my hand. "You don't..."

"I love you." I shut my eyes.

"Who says you don't? Who says I don't believe you? I do. I know Cara's with Kiis, right? Is that what bothers you?"

I nodded and was ready to swallow her shouts. I deserved that.

"You're funny. I love you. Let's get out of here. We've arrived." She pinched my nose and walked out with Riley.

And yeah. Before in-station interview, we walked across each other, Cara and us. Cara smiled softly at all of us, barely did eye contact with me. Instead, I grabbed Abby's hand because they allowed us to let James, Anthony, and her in.

"How you doing Cara?" Connor casually high-fived her.

"Hey hey! We meet again. I'm great. How are you?"

"Cool. We're cool." Connor nodded.

"Hey I think you should personally meet our crew. This is James, Anthony, that one is Taylor, and this is our newest crew member - or more likely Toby's girlfriend, Abigail."

I saw Cara looking at me that way. Hint of disappointment. But yeah I had nothing else to say. I pulled Abby's waist closer to me as she asked for a hand shake from Cara.

"Hi Cara, nice meeting you. Are you interviewing these boys?"

"Yes." Cara nodded repeatedly and awkwardly. "After this one."

"Cool!" Abby looked at me. I just winked back.

The interview started after 10 minutes of waiting. Cara did a little chit-chat first with her radio audience as well as made a short quiz for those who wanted to send us questions live.

"Hello guys! As I have promised you, I'm here with Before You Exit! Say hi to Connor Riley and Toby! Hey how you three doing?"

"Doing great, thank you." I replied her before Connor could. Just wanted to show how we have had it clear between us.

"Awesome! So...it's the first day of second headlining tour here in the country. LA people get the previledge! How's the prep?"

"Prep is good. We'll be having soundcheck shortly and all that. Ready to rock." Riley chuckled to the microphone.

"Can't wait to hear you guys playing again! Alright let's check your fans' first question... It's Natalia from San Fran. She's asking, uh nice one girl, 'Do you guys are still single?' Hahaha."

I saw Cara swallowed her words. She wasn't as free as the first time we saw her. But I was happy Abigail's here with us. She got to see everything. I got nothing to hide anymore.

"Dang, the same question all over again." Connor laughed. "I am single."

"As am I." Riley added. "Dude? Wanna answer?"

I looked at Cara in the eyes. She smiled a weak one at me back. "That's piece of cake. I have a girlfriend. Her name's Abigail."

"What is he doing..." I heard Abby's sigh to Taylor.

I turned the chair around at her to reply that by a wink. "I love you."

Cara just sighed happily in front of all of us. Couldn't take a risk of feeling jealous or anything. Yeah either way, we've gotten over it. I did hurt her feeling but show must go on. I have stated my apology, and she said she accepted it.

I got nothing to worry about. I did a mistake, but I was on my way to fix it. Abigail was an amazing person. She's the only one I should take care of from now on.

I love you, Abigail Enderson.
