Jenna's POV-
This is when the feeling sinks in.....I really don't want to miss you like this.
Come back, be here. Come back, be here.
I heard these words as I listened to music with earphones. I sighed. I fell asleep before Sarah got back last night so she told me this morning. And I was surprised that Jess didn't come to the bus.
But I didn't go her bus, either.
I don't think either of us want to see each other.
But I don't think either of us want to miss each other like this.
I wanted to go find her, I really did. But last time I tried that it didn't end well.
But I decided to anyways.
I got off the bus and it was raining so I looked for a hoodie. Oh well, I don't need one. I walked in the rain to The Summer Set bus.
I knocked at the door. John answered.
He smiled. "Sarah told you?"
"Yeah." I laughed. "That kid was determined to help me."
"She's a good friend." he said. "She risked her life to help you guys."
"Yeah, she is a good friend." I smiled. "Is she here?"
He could tell who I was talking about. "Yeah, she is."
He let me in. "Hey guys, can we give them some space?" he said. The rest of the guys walked off thebus with him.
"So, I suppose Sarah talked to you?" I asked.
"Yeah, she did." she said.
"She talked to me as well."
"So.....she told you what really happened?"
"Yes."
"You know I'd never do that to you."
"I should've trusted you, and I'm sorry." I said.
"You had every right to." she replied, hugging me. It felt so good being together.
"How about we watch a movie?" she asked.
"I'd love that." I said. We put in The Hunger Games and cuddled up with a blanket and watched it.The next thing I knew, I last remember seeing her climbing the tree to avoid being killed and woke up to seeing them about to both eat the berries. I must've fallen asleep.
"Would you do that for anyone?" I asked.
"Heck yeah. You." she replied.
I smiled and kissed her nose. "Good cause I'd do the same for you."
"What does this mean?" she asked.
"What do you mean?"
"Like....do we love each other?"
"I....I don't know if I'm ready for that yet." I smiled.
"Good, cause neither am I." she said.
Phew. I'm just not ready yet.
Sarah's POV-
"Do you see anything?" Ivan asked.
"No." I said.
"You know, you really shouldn't be talking."
"Yeah." I replied. I was standing on Ivan's shoulders, trying to get a peak in the The Summer Set bus. The Summer Set boys told us Jenna and Jess were hanging out and we shouldn't bother them.
But they didn't say don't bother them.
So I just happened to be in the neighborhood......or the tour bus next door.
I got a glimpse of Jenna looking at the window and getting up. She opened the door.
"Ouch!" Ivan sighed, falling to the ground. I fell to the ground because of that.
"Ha, ha..." I giggled.
"You guys are crazy." Jenna giggled, helping us up.
Jess walked off the bus. "Everything okay?"
"Tha'ts what I was about to ask you guys." I replied.
Jenna put her arm around Jess's shoulders. "Yeah, we're okay." she smiled.
"Yay!"
"Hey there!" I heard a security guard say. I didn't have my Warped Tour ID pass, and neither did Ivan. Both of us took off not realizing that Jenna and Jess could've just told them we were in a band.
I lost Ivan, so I'm not sure where he went. But I ended up at the And Lastly, You bus.
I hadn't heard anything on Joey or his family, so I knocked on the door.
Lane answered and smiled when he saw me. "Hey." he said.
"Hi." I smiled. "Is Joey here?"
"Wait, you're not supposed to talk."
"Long story." I laughed.
He smiled. "Yeah, he is here actually. Joey, Sarah's here!"
A month ago, it would've been--"Joey, your girlfriend's here!"
So there must be something going.
Joey weakly smiled when he saw me. I could tell he meant it, but he wasn't happy. "You want to walk around?" he asked.
I nodded. "Sure."
"You're not supposed to talk."
"Long story." I said.
"I heard. So....how are you?"
"Alright." I replied. "You?"
"Better." he said.
"How's Charlie?" I asked.
He looked up at the stars. "I remember the first night I met you. I went off the bus, and looked at the stars. I wished that one day, you'd be my best friend. Maybe, even my girlfriend. Cause I've liked you since then."
I supposed he wasn't ready to talk about it. "Really? Jenna teased me because she knew you liked me."
"She did? Wow, that girl's good." he laughed.
"Yeah." I smiled, happy to hear him laughing.
"Sarah....I want to thank you for sitting with me that night." he said. "Caden told me that you had to text Jenna and cancel plans, and I really appreciate that."
"You're welcome." I replied.
"You guys are close. I felt like I was interrupting that friendship."
"You weren't." I replied.
"Sarah, Charlie.....he passed away a week ago."
"Joey, I'm so sorry--"
"But wait. They brought him back and kept trying. And he's alive now. He's in the hospital and is heading off to a community to help him."
"Oh my gosh!" I smiled.
He smiled and hugged me. "He and I talked, actually. He apologized for being mad at me, and I told him I should never have joined this band anyway. He said he was wrong to ever be mad at me for doing that because I was doing what I loved and following my dreams and he wasn't. He said he was always jealous of me and that he always wanted to be like me. He told me that he was stupid to be mad and I told him he wasn't stupid for being mad. He and I hugged, and we're closer.....it's something I've never felt with Charlie before, other than before I left to make my dreams come true."
"That's so awesome, Joey." I smiled, hugging him.
"Hey Sarah?"
"Yeah?"
"Thank you." he smiled.
"You're welcome." I replied, holding on to him.
