I take one more look in the mirror before I leave with Cali for the concert.

I'm really doing this; I'm really going to this. Am I doing the right thing? I'm not just adding fire; I'm going to patch things over, right? What if he gets mad? Of course he'll get mad I'm going to his concert after so many of our fights, he'll think I'm up to something.

Sighing, I put a stand of hair behind my ear and straighten out my outfit. I have on a nice leather skirt, panty hose underneath them, a black crop top and combat boots. They're not that much heal which is ok and plus their really comfortable. My hair is neatly in a braid, my contacts are in, which were forcefully put in, and I have slight makeup on. For a second, maybe not even that, I see my mother in the mirror of where my face is. She always wore her hair like this.

I haven't been to many concerts but I know this isn't normal attire. This wasn't my idea of an outfit, it was Cali's.

Suddenly, a head pops out from my door and can be seen in the corner of my mirror. I send her a small smile through the mirror as she enters my room.

She's wearing shorts, a blink shirt, boots, and a beanie. She has on a fair amount of makeup and her hair is down and straightened. Why the hell does she cover herself up more than when she picks out my outfits?

I shake the thought out of my head as I walk towards her, a faint smile showing.

"Lets go and get this over with."

She smiles and gives me a big hug.

"I'm very proud of you for doing this, I know it's hard."

I nod as I hug her back tightly, just wanting to stay like this forever and not go to the concert.

Honestly, the only reason why I'm doing this is because I told my dad I would. I visited him a few days ago and told him everything like I always do. I made a promise to him saying that I would go and talk to Cody, to try to sort things out. Before all of this, my father told me to take risks and do things you aren't comfortable with and with all that's happened I haven't been doing that. So I promised I would just for him, which I'm not really sure why.

I'm not really sure why I tell him everything. It's not like he's going to talk to me, he can barely carry out a conversation, I get a few words but it's nothing I can make out. I guess it's for comfort or something, or maybe denial.

With the thoughts of my dad filling my head, I didn't even realize we were out the door and heading to the concert.

Cali held my hand the entire way to the venue. She said she could feel my shaking so she thought it would calm me. It did and I'm grateful I have her as a friend; she knows what can help me.

We're in a separate room with a bunch of people talking and chatting waiting for the guys to come.

To be honest, I don't really know who else in in the concert with the guys, all I know is that they're headlining it.

From what Austin told me, this vip is for both before and after the show. Before is a little acoustic set and after is a little meet and greet. Since this is the last show, they made the meet and greet a little longer.

Now that I mention it, when I told Austin, he seemed very happy that I was going. Just like Maxx, he wanted me to talk to Cody, but I told him I need to think about him. Funny thing is, I don't think he was happy that I could have the possibility of talking to Cody to fix things; I think it was something else, I just can't place it.

I hope it's not what I think it is.

Suddenly, the room gets really quiet and the guys appear and take their seats on stools. Everyone in the room takes their seat on the floor as me and Cali do the same, accept way in the back, far away from him as possible.
