"Katie! Come out here for a second!" My mom called from the living room. "Hey babe, I got to go, I'll call you back later." I told my boyfriend. "Alright beautiful." I blushed and felt my stomach turning into knots as I ended the FaceTime call. I rushed into the living room. "Yes ma'am?" "What took you so long?" "I was FaceTiming G." G was was pet name for my boyfriend, Gideon. My mom doesn't approve of him but I really don't care. Gideon makes me smile like never before. He's a grade younger than me. It all started in 7th grade for me and 6th for him. It was a summer romance basically with a huge heartbreak. After a year of high school I got over him, since I didn't see him for a year and a half but you can say that changed soon after I saw him the next school year. We've been together for 8 months now and going strong. I got to admit though,  I'm scared for these next few months considering I'm reaching my last few years in high school and will be going to college soon.

"Katie, are you paying attention to me?"

"Ma'am? Sorry I was daydreaming."

"Figured, anyway I have a surprise for you, want to know what it is? " Her mood instantly changed from having an attitude to being excited in the matter of seconds.

"Of course!" I replied quickly. "Well this envelope explains it all." My mother says as she hands me a plain white envelope. I look at the envelope for awhile before I open it. What is it? A letter? Plane ticket? Money? I have no clue. I decide to open it before she takes it back. I was partially right when I said a ticket but it's not a plane ticket. "Oh my gosh!" I screamed in excitement. "Thank you, thank you, thank you." "You're welcome dear."

My mom bought me a V.I.P ticket to see R5 in concert in a week! R5 is my favorite band. R5 got me through my stage of depression in 8th grade when Gideon broke my heart, and I've loved R5 ever since. If I get to meet them, I will either faint or die. I can't wait, honestly, this is my dream. I walked back in my room as happy as ever. This is one of the best days of my life besides May 17, the day me and G got back together.

'I WANNA WRAP YOU UP, WANNA HOLD YOU HAND FOREVER AND NEVER LET YOU FORGET IT . BABY I WANNA MAKE YOU FEEL WANTED ...'

That'd be Gideon. That's his ringtone because it's our song.

* Phone Conversation *

Katie: Hey baby.

Gideon: Hey babe.

We talked for an hour or so when I suddenly remembered to tell him about the concert.

Katie: Oh, guess what babe?

Gideon: What?

He mocks my excitement.

Katie: Well you know my favorite band, R5, right?

Gideon : Yeah?

Katie: Well, my mom got me V.I.P tickets to see them next Saturday!

Gideon: That's great babe! I'm probably going to get replaced.

I couldn't decide if he was joking or genuinely felt that way.

Katie: I know! I'm so excited, and that won't happen.

Gideon: I know you are, you've been wanting to see them forever!

Katie: Yeah, I can't wait.

I repeat.

Gideon: I know. I got to go babe. Goodnight. I love you and I'll see you tomorrow at 12.

Katie: Okay,  night. I love you too and you sure will.

* End of conversation *

I might as well go to sleep. I grab my iPod and start the R5 playlist. It helps me sleep, without having nightmares which can be really bad at times for me.

*The next morning *

I didn't set my alarm last night, considering it was spring break. I didn't feel the need to. I grabbed my phone and checked the time, 10:00 am. "Shit." I mumble to myself. I'm suppose to be meeting Gideon at the movie theater at noon. I rushed to the bathroom, washed my face, brushed my teeth and turned my hair straightener on.

I always straighten my long, brown hair because I think it makes me look better. I'm a little insecure, I think I'm ugly but everyone else says other wise. I try not to make my insecurities to obvious. Maybe, I'm not exactly horrible looking but guys sure aren't busting their butts to be with me either.

I picked out my outfit. I decided to go with a hot pink shirt and blue jean shorts. I'm not girly a lot. I can be but because I grew up in Georgia, I'm also very country. I finished straightening my hair and parted it to the side. I did my make up in a natural way. I checked the time, 11:15 am. If I don't hurry then I will be late. I grabbed my phone, keys, and money and ran to my car. I pulled out of the drive way and tried to hurry but by the time I reached the movie theater I was late.

"Gideon is going to be so mad." I think to myself. I walked into the theater and looked for my boyfriend. He was no where to be found and my mind started to fill with questions. Did he go ahead into the movie? Did he just leave? What if he's looking for me? I continued looking, after 30 minutes of searching I just went back to my car because I was becoming really frustrated. I sat in my car and thought about where he could be. I tried calling him multiple times with no answer. I looked up in the rear view mirror and my heart instantly shattered into a million pieces.
