Love, Aubrey

Aubrey's P.O.V

David showed up at my house five minutes after I finished talking to Riley. He looked very worried and hugged me for about five minutes before I led him up to my room.

We both fell on my bed and he looked at me. "What?," I asked him.

"You're a band girl too," he mumered  softly. His eyes kinda glossed over. I couldn't tell what he was thinking. He slowly leaned close me.

I couldn't help but want him to kiss me. He read my mind. His kisses were always soft, never rushed, never pushed just soft. I loved them.

As we broke away, I smiled but David didn't. He studied my features carefully and then sighed "Aubrey I have to tell you something..."

"What's up?," I asked confused.

"I have a gig in Chicago," he whispered. My mind screamed. My head started to pounding or maybe it was my heart in my head.

"Oh...wow that's amazing... ,"I trailed off. That was 235 miles away. Not here with me.

"It's in two weeks," he whispered. His eyes grew dark.

"I'm...happy for you,"I sat up slowly and swallowed back tears.

"Then I'm going to Indianapolis for a little while," he whispered.

I just nodded slowly and swallowed. I didn't want to break.

" It's on a record deal. I'm going to be gone for four weeks," his voice broke. I could tell he was having trouble staying calm.

"That's not terrible," I whispered. But I was crying. I didn't want him to go.

"Yes! Yes it is! I can't bare to be without you for more than nine hours! Let alone four weeks!," he cried.

"I know!," I cried tears racing down my cheeks. I couldn't do this.

"Shhh please don't cry I'll lose it," David wrapped his arms around me.

"I don't want you to go,"I whispered through tears. I fell on to David's chest and let David hold me.

He looked at me "I can say no, I really can."

I shook my head "N-no y-you h-have to g-go."

"Please don't shutter, Aubrey," David whispered.

"I-I'm s-sorry," I mumbled through tears. My lugs started to not accepting my air.

"Don't worry... ," it was like he was trying to be positive but couldn't be.

I started to cry, like really cry, not just tears. It wasn't any crying because I... I didn't know what to do. I couldn't tell him not to go. He had to go. But I didn't want him to leave.

"Shhh," David rubbed my back but he was trying really hard not to cry too.

Finally I lost it. I had a full out anxiety attack. I couldn't breath. My eyes were pouring tears and my brain stopped working. I knew David was talking but I couldn't understand what he was saying.

My body just shut down. I fell into a ball on my bed and caught my breath. Then I felt numb, slowly I could use my body again. My eyes came back first and I saw David. He had his arms around me and he was crying.
