After standing in the hall way for what seemed like forever, with Shelby pestering me about meeting the girls all over especially Kayleigh because I knew she hurt from the time we'd been distant, in fact not just herself were in pain from me leaving, but everyone was including myself. I sighed and finally gave into the nagging before a sudden question popped into my head, I wondered if Tara would be in the car, considering Shelby had mentioned all the girls, which probably did mean her - as she was Matt's girlfriend. I knew they'd been in a relationship since our last year of college but didn't want to make it public to the fan base just yet, although the fans had suspicions and I knew it was true due to keeping in contact with Tara.
I was relatively close - and still am with Tara, we exchanged numbers in our last year of school together and kept in contact since; she kept me up to date with the boys and girls and sometimes messaged me when they brought me up saying how much they missed me being around, annoying them and wondering if I was alive, how I was and all that kind of stuff. Nobody knew to us keeping in contact due to myself being a strict, stubborn bitch to her and saying not to say a word. We occasionally hung out and caught up in person a few times, and a few times the boys had looked over her shoulder to see who she was texting or asked, but of course they never caught on, I mean they would have seen myself in person as well, as I had attended a few shows from here to there, yet only Tara knew of course. I smiled to myself and watched Shelby dance around the hallway and leaping into the elevator on her way down. She smiled a toothy smiled and waved eagerly to tell the girls the news of myself being here. I sighed and looked at Dan - who gave me a sympathetic smile and we entered the room again and noticed Josh was sitting on a two seater couch; I grinned and went to sit next to him as he groaned when my thigh slightly brushed against his knee. I sat next to him and cocked an eyebrow. He looked at me in surprise as how I caught onto that groan, but yet no questions were asked. I grinned while he placed his hand on my thigh; holding it firmly, as to my questionable face, he nodded at the door as I heard hush voices, I bit my lip and placed my hand gently on top of Josh's. Of course this action felt right, even though we weren't on speaking terms or seeing each other for two years. I held in a breath and waited for the door to open.
My eyes went wide and I quickly let go of the breath I held, which no longer lasted for twenty seconds. As I saw these four beautiful ladies, which I had recognized and a strange one - which still she was beautiful but seemed familiar, as I saw a man covered in tattoos follow behind her. I froze at the realization it was Oliver Sykes. I cocked an eyebrow as I was only told that there were women in the car not a man, I shuck my head and smiled at them, to see all six of them glancing around the room and finally landing their gazes on me. "Hazel, it's nice to see you hey" I heard Tara remark, as I felt the sarcasm in her voice, as we had spoken on the phone last night, I snorted and nodded at her "Hey Tara, what's up?" I grinned widely and noticed everyone's questionable looks, I snorted and realized they didn't know about our contact. "Ah, let's just say we've kept in contact over the two years, the irony of us only speaking last night on the phone too. I didn't know how long it'd take you guys, and since after at least a month of Josh breaking his promise-" I felt Josh wince at my tone and I bit my lip, trying not to tremble my tone "I texted Tara asking her if she knew why, hence why I know at least every updation from your band, and music of course. Although Tara had told me about Josh's clothing line. I find this quit funny too, due to the fact every show you've had up here, I've attended." I snorted, laughing lightly and look in between myself and Tara. "Tara, why didn't you speak of this…?" I heard Dan hiss, and she jumped at his tone "Hazel. She told me not too, don't ask me." she quickly replied and I felt his glance on me once again "I wanted to see how long it'd take for Josh to reply and actually keep his promise. But yet, I also find this weird, you noticed me at the shop Dan, and Josh when I was walking home on the pathway, yet you couldn't spot me at a show?" I sighed, Max and Chris glared at me and I shrugged my shoulders. I noticed Kayleigh had tears stirring up in her eyes. "Kay? What's wrong?" I noticed everyone turn their gaze onto her, as she brushed her hand through her shiny, perfect brown hair and groaned, she hated having the attention on her ever. She glanced and me and I quickly picked Josh's hand up; placing it beside him while he nodding in understanding and I got up and hugged her- tightly, she quickly responded.
I felt the tears rushing onto my shirt "shh Kay, it's okay. Shhh" I whispered into her ear, I felt her shaking her head and sighed "not for the last two years Hazel. You fucking left us all, why did you do that you bitch" she whispered, I winced at her tone and nodded "you know why Kay. I had to get out of there" I sighed and soon found her frozen in shock, as she had remembered as to why I left our hometown; Birmingham. "Do your parents know you're here?" she spoke softly and I nodded "of course, but I told them to not tell anyone, due to Adrian." I sighed and felt her freeze again at his spoken name. "Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine here, I own an apartment with my best friend-" I bit my lip and nodded "his names Beau, although he's my roommate and all, but we're comfortable to talk about anything, except I haven't told him as to why I moved here. He groans every time and nags me to catch up with you all - so I guess I have good news for him now" I smiled and felt Kayleigh cried and realized I had said best friend "you're my sister Kay," I stated and felt her warm passionate smile against my shoulder as she pulled away and kissed my cheek. "God damn I missed you, Haze" she smiled and I nodded at her tone. She had been wearing a black hoodie with a blue owl on it and blue skinny jeans with black fans, I smiled at her and felt the next person attack me in a hug. It had been Jayde; then next was Shelby again and then greeted with a handshake and soft hug from Oli and a sweet loving hug from Alicia who is Oli's girlfriend, but we had also gone to college again, as I knew she was recognizable. I was now currently reunited with my best friends and group again. This had honestly made me the happiest person ever and I had to encourage Beau to let him meet these guys.
