Mark My Words

Chapter 31

<Hayes' Pov>

Today is the day I am leaving to fly out to L.A. to start rehearsals. I haven't talked to Paige for 2 days and frankly we aren't going to even going to say goodbye to each other. She hasn't even looked at me. We were at our show and I kept looking at her and smiling but every time I looked at her she turned her head and looked at the crowd. When it was time for the Q&A people kept asking us if we still together or why we weren't sitting next to each other or why were haven't posted anything about each other in a while. Our answers were vague like yes we are still together. We don't need to be with each other 24/7. Or because we don't need to post things about our relationship all the time it's our relationship not theirs. Some fans were mad with our responses but we weren't about to tell them that we are in a fight and we haven't talked to each other since we said goodbye the night before. It's not their business and we have a private life. Anyway, I am sitting on my bed contemplating going and talking to her or just let her talk to me. I decided to just leave it and see what happens. I got up and grabbed all my clothes and put them in the bags and grabbed everything from the bathroom and put it in my bag. I grabbed all my electronics and grabbed my computer bag I put everything in there then set them on my bed. I changed my outfit I put a sweatshirt and sweats on I put Nike socks on and then sliders on. I grabbed all my bags and walked down to Nash's room. I knocked on the door and a bed headed Nash opened the door.

"Hey lil bro!"

"Hey Nash!" I brought all my bags into his room and sat on the couch he had.

"So what's up?"

"Well today's the day I leave and I haven't said one word to Paige since last night. And I don't want to force her to talk to me again. It just pisses her off."

"Bro she has to talk to you. She's not about to let you leave without saying goodbye. It's Paige we are talking about the girl you've been crazy about for 2-3 years. How ever long it's been. Not the point she's going to say something to you I know she will!"

"I don't know Nash she as pretty upset.."

"It's Paige! For the last time it's Paige! She's going to talk to you! Just trust me! She became one of my best friends while you were in rehab. I know her she's going to want to say goodbye.."

"K fine. I have 4hours until my flight and I need to kill time want to do something!" I laughed.

"Yeah sure why not! Want to go get breakfast down at the café?"

"Sure I'm in!"  He rolled his eyes and laughed.

"Okay let's get going then." We walked out of the room with my 2 bags in my arms. We got into the elevator and pressed the down button. The whole way down Nash was texting someone but trying to be secretive about it. I didn't think much of it. I got on snapchat and took a picture of Nash and I in the elevator. The doors opened and we walked over to the café. As soon as we got there Nash ran in as I slowly lugged my bags round with me. I walked into the café and all of the sudden I heard a bunch of people yell "SURPRISEEE!!!" I jump a little there was a sign that said congratulations Hayes! All my friends were standing around smiling at me. I scanned the room trying to see if Paige was there but I didn't see her. Everyone came up to me one by one and said congratulations and hugged me. About 30 minutes into this little party Paige walked in. As soon as I saw her my eyes widened and I got up and smiled at her.

"Hayes can we talk?" She said as she walked closer to me.

"Uhh... Yeah sure." We walked right outside of the café and stood there awkwardly.

"I'm sorry I haven't been the best. But I would just like to say congrats and in proud of you."

"Thank you." I said as I kissed her cheek.

"Listen uhh... I don't think this is going to work out while you are out in LA and I'm on tour."

"What are you serious?"

"Hayes who knows how long you will be gone and we can't talk with your long rehearsal house and me being in your?"

"Oh my gosh Paige! Do you remember when I came back from rehab and you came back from your tour?" She nodded. "Do you remember what I promised you?" She nodded again. "I promised I wouldn't leave you again! You can consider this leaving but I'm not leaving I'm going to text you and call you every night and day whenever I'm free and your free! In going to leave you messages when you're not available! That way when you miss me you can listen to them and not miss me as much! Look I promised I wouldn't leave and I intend on keeping that promise! But you know what I just remembered? You never made that promise to me. And you doing this is basically you leaving me! I'm not okay with that! I had to promise and you didn't that's not fair! And neither is this!" Tears threatening to pour out of her eyes she looked at the ground.

"Hayes don't you use that card!"
"What card? It's the truth!"

"Hayes stop!"

"Fine you know what I'm done with this! Bye Paige!" I started walking away. "Don't let me walk away. Chase after me chase after me chase after me." I whispered to myself. I kept walking back to the café but she never stopped me. I went back inside with all my friends. They asked me what happened but I just said I didn't want to talk about it. And hour and a half had passed. "Well guys I got to catch my flight! I will see you all soon! You guys are allowed to come and see the show whenever you want so just let me know and I will get you tickets! Love you guys!"

"We love you tooo!!" Everyone said back. Nash got up and walked out with me.

"What happened with you and Paige?"

"She ended things I tried to fight for her but she didn't listen to me so I just said fine and walked away. I just wanted her to chase after me and say everything was going to work out but she didn't!" A tear slipped out of my eye. Nash hugged me and just comforted me.

"It's going to be okay Hayes! I promise you guys will work things out eventually!"

"I don't know Nash! But whatever thanks for believing in us."

"No problem!" A limo pulled up right then. "Well this is me..."

"Be safe bro! Have fun! I love you and I'm proud of you!"

"Thanks bro!" We hugged one last time. "Tell her I love her!" I whispered before pulling away from the hug.

"Will do!"

"Thank you Nash!" He smiled and I turned around and gave the driver my bags. He opened the door for me but before he closed it I heard running and some one tell "WAIT!" I turned my head around and standing there was Paige....

What is this?!? Another update?!? Sorry it took so long! Maybe another one tomorrow.. 🙃😏😏
