Here's another update because I've had no wifi and y'all have been waiting so patiently #blessyou

Chris' pov (heck yaw)

It's been about a year since I last contacted Montana. I decided to just give up. There was hardly a response from her and it made me depressed for quite some time.

I understand that she has a busy life and all but could she not bother to have replied to any of my calls or texts?

I know Bailey has even tried to contact her lately. She just did at the moment as well.

Though, I wasnt expecting a response.
"I doubt that she'll reply." Bailey slouched her shoulders and leaned into Crawford. I shook my head slightly and turned up the volume on the television.

We were watching old reruns of Wheel of Fortune. I felt bad for all of the people that tried for the big win but always failed. It didn't seem fair. They would get so far and then it just gets swept out from under them.

I rolled my eyes at my own thought, knowing that I wasnt even thinking about the show anymore.

Montana and I seemed to be working out fine but of course she had to move all the way across the country.

Just then, the sound of Bailey's phone going off snapped me out of my thoughts. I stood up from the recliner I was sitting in and sat down next to her.

Sure enough Montana had actually replied. I was itching to see what she said. I read the screen and it said:

Montana: yeah I am. For sure! ily2

I smiled at her simple reply and told Bailey to tell her I wanted to see her too.

After she sent it, I immediately regretted it because she never replied. I kind of figured that she wouldn't or at least she would ignore the statement.

I was nervous for her coming home for the holidays but more so because her mom hasn't told her that they are both spending it with my family. Since it would just be the two of them my mom figured that they should come to our house. Montana's mom quickly agreed and decided to keep it a surprise for her.

Hopefully she'll be happy. She doesn't seem too glad about my company since she always ignores anything that has to do with me.

It makes me wonder if she ever even liked me. Was it just a game to her? I prayed not becuase it definitely wasn't to me. I was all in and now I couldn't help how the missing piece of my heart aches.

My hopes were high that these two months would pass by quickly so that maybe I could talk to her and clear things up.

As you guys can tell this chapter was mainly about Chris' thoughts on the whole situation.

The next chapter is probably going to be skipped to the flight home to L.A. just to speed things up for you guys :)
