It's a love/hate Relationship (sequel) After Amnesia

19. Sniffles

Caitlyn's P.O.V

Today was the day of the performance and everything was falling to shit. My costume ripped and Mickey sewing it last minute- Rider has the flu so he can barely dance and His parents might not be coming which makes me feel absolutely terrible because he has worked so hard for this and his parents are refusing to come watch their son
'Waste his youthful mind'.
"I can't get this one seam it's stuck"
"Then make it in-stuck!!"
"Okay-Caitlyn! I'm trying"
"We'll try harder!" She gets up putting he arm around me pushing me on the couch.
"H, you take her! I can't focus with her
Nagging in my ear!" Rude. But true.
"Cay are you O-cay?"
"Harry not now I'm not in the mood for your adorable puns.."
"What? But your always in the mood for my terrible puns!" He said acting hurt and pretending to fake cry- re leaving my stress a little bit, something only sometimes he can manage to do.
"Your right I'm sorry, I'm just really nervous"
"You? Nervous? Ha! Caitlyn you have   never been nervous a day of your life"
"We'll not for me but for-"
"Rider" he said in a disgusted tone.
"Look Harry this performance is a big deal for him and I don't wanna screw it up for him and it's only 2 o'clock and I'm already doing it!" He takes my hand kissing it and pulling me closer.
"Cay, whatever happens-happens. You just stop worrying, I don't like seeing you like this love" I kiss his cheek causing him to blush.
"I GOT IT! FUCK YEAH!"
"YOU DID!"
"Yeah all I had to do was pull this string...teehee"
"You stupid!" I rushed away changing into the flowy black outfit.
"Caitlyn the performance isn't for 4 hours!" Luke says coming out if the bathroom wearing just a towel and flat hair.
"Lucas! PUT. ON. A. SHIRT!" Michael says from the kitchen.
"Hey i don't mind" she says winking at him-cheeky little shit. Suddenly the doorbell rang.
"I got I'll be right back" I open the door stepping outside to see a cute sick rider in a big black robe.
"Hi Caitlyn" he says in between sniffles.
"Oh my God Ri! Your worse than yesterday..can you still dance?" Yes we have Nicknames..don't judge!
"Please, you would have to hit me with a bus for me not to perform tonight"
"Glad to hear it because I didn't deal with you for two weeks for nothing" he chuckled too himself which turned into coughing. It was pretty hilarious.
"Fair.." He smiled. I could hear Harry yelling from inside saying 'what's taking them so long'
"Rider-did you hear back from your parents yet...." Suddenly his cheesy smiled turned into a frown.
"Actually yeah umm t-they aren't coming"
"Awe Ri...I'm so so sorry" I pulled him into a hug as I heard little sniffles, not the sick kind.
"Caitlyn Please, I'm sick don't come near me I don't want you getting sick"
"I don't care, you deserve it" I felt his grip in me get tighter. He whispered a see you tonight and dragged off. I walk back back inside sitting down next to Harry automatically knowing what was in his mind.
"Don't worry he didn't try to rape me or anything" I joke.
"Not funny c"
"Well he's not in a good state right now physically or emotionally so cut him some slack Hazza" I say interlocking our hands.
"C, we need to start getting ready for tonight" Mickey says dragging me off the couch to her room.
--
"Luke's voice has gotten so strong, it really raspy and sexy and Lord"
"Well Rider is probably the best dancer I've ever seen- I just feel really bad"
"Don't tell me his parents aren't coming" she says walking into the closet and instantly coming out with a full outfit.
"I wish I could" she says pulling off we top.
"You know C don't let it get you down- or him down! This is your debut night and I'm hella excited to see it"
"Since when do you not hate Rider?"
"Since I learned that I should trust people more and not jump to conclusions"
"WHAT! Michelle Irwin isn't jumping to conclusions anymore?" I said gasping as she pushed me playfully.
She was wearing her black ripped jeans and black lace top with a black Bralette and a purple with pink scarf and converse with her hair straightened.
"What do you think?"
"Super Hot..I still look better though"
"Your such a cheeky little shit" she says trying to do a British accent and failing.

We were all backstage getting ready to perform and Rider, sniffles and all was ready to perform. Harry and the guys were sitting second row to the right as Mickey and Luke were warming up in the dressing room they perform after us. We could hear Ms. Dana talking about AAAP to everyone and soon enough we were announced.
"Caitlyn I'm actually really scared"
"Don't be! We can do this, together" he took my hand as we took the stage.
The clapping died down as the music went up. My hand in Riders as we began the dance, I glanced over to Harry was surprisingly smiling- yet no sign of his parents. Thinking out loud blaring through the speakers as we performed the dance quite perfectly. We heard cheering in the crowd and whistles which made Rider smile. As His soft hands caressed my body I could feel Harry's glare resting upon our our faces but I didn't care- I was having an amazing time performing and so was Rider. Sadly, it came to an end and the crowd roared with applause and whistles as we took a bow and went backstage.
"That was brilliant! I chose the right people it seems!" Ms.Dana bragged.
"Thank y- Achoo!"
"Bless you" said two voices behind us, we tried around as Riders face dropped.
"Y...You C-came" holy shit.
"Of course we did, we've been thinking and if this is what you want we should be supporting you." Riders face lit up as a huge smile appeared in his face.
"And that was exceptionally fantastic you two are incredibly talented!"
"Thank you so much Caitlyn" he whispered to me as he walked off with his parents. I'm so happy everything worked out for him- and me of course.
As Harry approached I ran into his arms as he spun me around as I wrap my legs around him.
"That was absolutely amazing love! Watching you up there is like watching Mickey eat a waffle..beautiful. It would of been better without certain people.."
I playfully shove him as I interlock our hands.
"I'm glad you liked it" we walked together to sit down and watch Mickey and Luke sing- and WOW were they good, them siting together was a movie they were better than Troy and Gabriella, better than Rachel and Finn- they were amazing. We created a standing ovation as we watched the two go backstage hand in hand. We ran over as Mickey tackled Harry to the ground as Luke did I. Luke was in such a good mood he even accepted a congratulations from Kaleb!
Today turned out pretty good for how it looked like this morning.
And my feeling for Rider-
They're becoming more troublesome per Hello.
