"Where's Ashley?" Jinxx asked. Everyone looked at me. "Andy."

"I don't know." I said. Me and Ashley hadn't talked all day. I'm not sure why. We woke up he kissed my forehead and that was it. That was our last 'interaction'.

"Well we have to go on in five. So you need to text him. He's not answering us." Jake said.

"Will he answer me?" I asked. "Do you think he's mad at me?"

"I don't know ands but you gotta figure it out quick." CC said. I let out a sigh. I took my phone out and called him. He answered right away.

"Andy I can't come tonight. Tell the guys I'm sorry." He said.

"What's wrong Ashley?" I asked. "Are you mad at me?"

"No. Feeling a little sick." He said. "I'm with Bryan and Johnnie. I'll be fine. You play bass tonight."

"You didn't talk to me like at all today." I said and frowned.

"Didn't want you to worry. I wanted to be better before tonight. I'm sorry. I love you." He said.

"I love you to. I'll come to you after the show. I have to go though. I love you so so much Ashes." I said.

"I love you too." He said and I hung up.

"He's not coming. I'm playing bass tonight." I said.

"Okay. Don't fuck up." CC said with a laugh. "I'm serious though dude. Don't fuck up."

"Yeah." Jake said seriously.

"Thanks for the confidence guys lets go." I said sadly. I picked up my bass that I shared with Ashley. I ran out on stage.

"Ashley." I said and ran towards him. I hugged him tight. "Please never be sick again. I don't want you to not be able to play. Please."

"Shhh Ands. You did fine." He whispered. "There's people around. You might wanna get off." He said. "Meet and greets in ten minutes."

"I miss you." I whispered and let go. He smiled at me. "Okay. Are you doing meet and greet?" I asked him.

"I'm gonna sit away from you guys. I don't want to get any one sick." He said. I nodded. Me and the guys went to meet some fans. The fans wanted to see Ashley even though he was sick so he came over. Most of the fans left but one boy stayed a little longer.

"I'm sorry if I'm annoying you." He spoke.

"It's fine. Your not at all." Jinxx said.

"Are you and Ashley together?" he asked Jinxx. Jinxx. Really. Me and Ashley were all over each other and he thought they were together. "Like you two seem really close."

"We're best friends. We've known each other for a really long time. But we're not dating. I have some one." Ashley said with a smile.

"A girlfriend?" the boy asked. "Sorry you don't have to answer that." Ashley laughed a little. "It's fine."

"Ashley can you help me carry some things on the bus. We have a bunch of little gifts." I said. I wanted a minute alone with him. I wanted a hug. I felt like shit.

"Yeah." He said and picked up some of the drawings and plush toys the fans got us. I picked up the rest. When we got on the bus he put the stuff in the storage bunk. "What do you want baby?" he asked.

"What?" I said innocently. "I want a hug. I'm jealous." I sighed. He laughed at me. "Stop." He gave me a hug.

"Jealous of what?" he asked.
