chapter 5

We walked hand in hand through the maze of service back doors to find the other boys and Kate. Once we were in public, I let go of Joey's hand and walked directly to Kate, who was standing over to the side.

"Kate you are not going to believe what just happened." I say grabbing her hands and giving her the biggest hug ever.

"What spill the details!" She playfully demanded.

"Ok so while all of you guys were heading down here, Joey and I had a little moment and might of kissed." I said looking at the ground to hide the bright shade of pink my cheeks were becoming.

"Holy shit go you! So was it good or like what," She smiled and sarcastically said. "Wait just tell me later when we are in are more private place." She winked and I dramatically nodded in approval. I had just remembered Joey gave me his lanyard to hold onto incase anything happened and I saw lots of people passing by eyeing my pass. Wow this felt weird. Their was a break in fans asking for pictures so I walked over to Joey and went behind him and startled him with a hug (from behind). He jumped a little and turned to see who or what it was and once he saw me a wave of relief went over him.

"Just coming to say hi, and I was wondering if we are keeping this thing between us under locks or not." I whispered into his ear whilst resting my head on his shoulder.

"Um lets talk about it once we're finished with this ok." He said resting his head and hands on mine. I reassuringly nodded and smiled and gave him a super small peck on the neck. I don't know what came over me, but it just felt right. After another 30 to 45 minutes of picture taking we all headed back up to the room. By this time it was almost 7:45pm so they were planning on where to go to dinner. Everyone didn't really care where we went so I had the great idea of recommending Outback Steakhouse because it wasn't super fancy, but it wasn't too casual and I had been there so many times before.

We headed out and once again I was hand in hand with Joey. I think the other boys knew what was going on so they just ignored it. We all secretly loaded into a giant van but some fans did catch us and take pictures of us walking which meant they got me and Joey but I didn't really care because I was so happy with him. He put in this sorta undeniable happiness.

I sat next to Joey and Jonah while Kate sat next to Josh and Ryan. The car ride there was full of loud and obnoxious dad jokes that you couldn't help but laugh at, but I have to admit my favorite part was hearing Jonah's dumb laugh. We arrived at the restaurant and were sat at a large, long table. Again I sat between Joey and Jonah but I was also across from Kate and Ryan. After our waitress came to get our drinks the laughter and indecisive food picking began. I already knew what I was getting so I decided to be nice and help Joey and Jonah.

"Whatcha getting?" I asked Joey, leaning over to look at his menu.

"I don't know, I'm deciding between the ribs, salmon, or you later." He said with a wink and giggle; putting his hand on my thigh.

"Um no I was going to help you but now I'm not," I say doing a 180 turn and directing all of my attention at Jonah. "So Jonah whatcha getting?"

"Hmmm maybe the shrimp or lobster?" he says deeply pondering the thought of his food. Joey is annoyingly taping my back and it took everything in me to not turn around and acknowledge him. I kept my attention on Jonah until Joey rested his head on my shoulder and said, "Sorry boo thang." in a very sarcastic apologetic tone. What the heck I could never stay mad at him.

"You are forgivin' you little bitch." I say placing his hand on my thigh.

The night was filled with laughter and great memories. This definitely would be a good story time for your friends. After everyone finished their meals we all headed back to the van. Joey was kind enough to pay for my meal even after countless 'I'm fine's' and 'no really I'm ok', but he still got his way. Once inside the hotel I headed up to sdks' rooms dodging all of the fan girls.

"My room is in the south side if you wanna hang away from everyone." I whispered into Joey's ear before we got into the elevator.

"Hey guys we are gonna go to Christina's room to pick up some stuff, we will be right back." Joey said to the group of guys which was followed by a chorus of ok's and aww's.
The only way to get to my room was to go through a large lump of fans. We braced ourselves for lots of pictures and almost got mobbed but managed to make it out alive. Once at my room Joey decided to jump on the bed and spread his legs out. I proceeded to climb up next to him but was attacked by him, pulling me closer to him. Let's just say it was an odd way to cuddle.

"So what are we?" I say looking up to Joey and meeting his eyes.

Joey responded with, "I don't know, I mean I really like you and I think your personality is great and you can put up with my horrendous jokes and ..." I stopped him by climbing on top of him and pressing my lips onto his. It felt so right and nice but also foreign and mysterious. We continued at it, syncing our movement to perfect harmony. His hands ran through my long, curly hair and down along my back. His touch sent tingles down my spine. He then proceeded to flip me around so I was on the bottom and wrap my legs around his torso. My fingers tousled his hair. He lifted me up so I sat criss cross apple sauce in his lap.

I pulled away to ask the age old question, "So you want to be more than friends?" I giggled awaiting his response.

"Definitely." He said landing a small peck on my lips.

"So when does everyone else find out?" I asked, still sitting in his lap with my arms draped around his neck.

"The other boys have already caught on but fan wise I don't know, nor do I give a shit. Most of the time if I'm happy they are." He said running his hands up and down my thighs. It was nice to know he didn't want it to be a giant secret but also stressful because that meant everyone would be watching your every move.

"Good." I said pulling out my phone and opening snapchat. I snapped and adorable picture of Joey's hand on my thigh and put some cute hearts around it. "Go tweet me, I need to catch up to you on followers." I laughed reaching for his phone and handing it to him. He gladly agreed and tweeted something hinting at us possibly dating

"@joeygatto: @bwschristy is the cutest, go follow her for lots of cuteness"

After around 10 or so minutes Joey decided to head back to his room. We both got up and I gave him the biggest hug I could muster up. My arms were draped over his shoulders and our lips crashed into one another's. His hands, once again, rested on my butt (no surprise). I pulled away and whispered into his ear, "So what time tomorrow? You know it will be a hassle to get me into that tower." I say playing with his hair.

"Oh fuck I forgot about that," he cursed at the ground, "how about I just come and wake you up." He said trying to plan out the situation in his head.

"Fine with me, see you tomorrow Joey." I said almost pushing him out the door. It was super late and I needed my beauty rest. I wonder how tomorrow will go. Tomorrow was the last day so let's pray it goes by slow, I want to cherish every moment spend here.
