just a short little update as a filler, STILL VERY IMPORTANT THOUGH
Leah, Sam and the band and I run into the venue, booking it back from Hot Topic across the street. Salt Lake City Utah is the place to go for Hot Topics'. "slow down turbo." Andy laughs at us. I haven't seen him since the kiss so I don't know how to act around him. "where'd you get the Hot Topic?"
"just across the street." I answer, smiling like a lunitic; either from seeing him or Hot Topic, who really knows? Haley takes my bag and books it away. "you shit head." I start run after her but Andy grabs my elbow. "what?" I ask, looking back at him. he pulls me into a hug.
"thanks for that night in LA, I needed it."
"which part?" I ask his chest.
"all of it, thanks." I nod. "now go get your band merch from Haley." he gently pushes me away, towards where Haley dissapeared.
"bye Andy, don't be a stranger." I yell as I run off.
"I couldn't if I tried." he yells back. I find Haley sitting in front of the PTV bus, looking through my shit.
"excuse you missy." she looks up with a devilish grin. "can I have my shit back?" she gets up, and before I can grab the bag, she throws it up and Tony catches it, on the top of the fucking bus. "you fuckers." I try to sound stern but it comes out with a laugh. I run over the the side of the bus, where the ladder is, and take it down before Tony can get down it. "what now mother fucker?" I yell up.
"give me the ladder." he whines. "Maxine." he kicks his legs, seeing as he's on his stomach. Vic comes out of the bus to see what's on the top of the bus.
"what the fuck is," he begins to ask until he looks up. "why are you on top of the bus?"
"why aren't you on top the bus?" Tony counters.
"he stole my bag of Hot Topic."
"Tony, give it to me." Vic scolds. Tony shakes his head. "now Tony." Vic holds out his hand, acting like a dad making a little boy give up his favorite toy because he broke a vase. Tony huffs and drops my bag down.
"thanks V.." Vic takes off down the rows of buses with my bag. "you mother fucker." I scream, chasing after him.
I give up chasing down the Mexicans, my band and everyone in BVB besides Andy around by the time it's time to preform. we get on stage and the crowd goes wild. I flick Jack's, Haley's and Kyle's ears before speaking. "they stole my Hot Topic. and I have no idea who has it. It's either CC, Jinxx, Jake, Ashely, Vic, Tony, Jaime, Mike or my little sister. and I am very pissed. I spent a lot of money there God dammit. note, don't let Haley take your Hot Topic, ever."

I head towards the bus, carrying the basket full of fan stuff. Chris comes down the alley that our bus was down, hanging his head. "hey Chris, what's up?" he looks up, shocked to see me.
"nothing." He defends. "just allergies." I nod and say goodbye. I get onto the bus and am greeted by pillow fluff all over the floor, gross sobs, and Leah in the center of the mess, crying her eyes out. I drop the basket and kneel next to her.
"what happened? are you hurt?" she shakes her head and clings to me while she cries. "Leah, tell me what happened. I'm worried."
"he.. he.. he.." she stutters more then I can count. "he cheated Max. he cheated." she screams, clenching my shirt as her sobs come out harder. I hold her tightly, anger rushing through every inch of me.
"I swear I'm going to kill him." she shakes her head.
"I just need to cry." she sobs. I rub her back. not even a week after coming out he fucking cheats on her. I swear to God I will fuck his ass up so he can't even walk straight for years. Leah sobs herself to sleep in my arms after thirty minutes of nonstop sobbing. I put her in my bed and cover her up, kissing her forehead. I storm out of the bus and find where Chris is. he's just wondering around and the minute he sees me his face falls from the smile that was there. he meets me in the middle, already accepting his fate. I slap him as hard as I can, making him almost fall over due to the force.
"You fucker." I seeth.
"I deserved that." he mutters.
"don't you ever ever ever come near me or my sister again you sick son of a bitch." I keep my voice low as to not draw too much attention. "I can't fucking believe you. you fucking promised." I yell, immediately lowing my voice as I draw some attention from the pass byers. "you promised me you wouldn't hurt her."
"I know, and I'm sorry." he looks sincear in his apology but I can't accept it, not after he hurt my sister so much.
"sorry doesn't fix a broken heart you jack ass." I leave him and go back to Leahann. I watch her as she sleeps, leaning against Polar. small whimpers leave her mouth every now and then. why can't I just take all her pain? I hate seeing her in pain, I always have and always will be in pain when she is. she doesn't deserve any of this. she's nothing but sweet to anybody, especially to Chris. the bus door opens, closes, opens and closes again. I get up and go look at who came in. there's nobody there, except for a note on the table with a single rose. I pick up the note.
dear Max and Leah,
this is the best I could find under short notice. I really am sorry and there's a long story behind what I did but I understand if you don't want to hear it, I fucked up.
-Christofer Drew
I put the rose back on the table but keep the note. I don't want to hear about how he was so madly in love with Leah and didn't know what to do so he decided to cheat to see if he actually loved her but he realized that he did. Kyle helped clean up Leah's mess when he gets in.

Leahann wakes up after everyone else went to bed but me. she gives me a weak smile, seeing how tired I am from watching over her.
"you didn't have to stay up Maxine."
"I couldn't sleep anyways." I whisper, not enough energy to speak properly. Leah scoots over and pats a spot in front of her. "no, you go back to sleep, I'll be fine. we're only three hours from the venue anyways."
"Maxine Wells, get in bed with me." I muster a quick smile and crawl into bed with her. she curls into my back. "thanks for being a great big sister Max."
"thanks for being my little sister Leah." she kisses my cheek as I slowly fall asleep.
