Mackenzie

I answered my phone, it was my boyfriend. He was mad because I wasn't home. He was yelling. Asking me where I was. 

 "I'm on tour with a couple friends. Calm down," I said. He asked if Hunter was on tour also. 

"Yeah. He was the one who brought me."

"You know I don't like when you talk to him." He was slurring his words. He drank all the time.

 "WELL KYLE THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT. HE IS MY FRIEND!" I screamed into the phone.

 I woke Brandon up. He sat next to me.

 "Is everything alright?" he asked. 

"WHO IS THAT!!? ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME??" Kyle screamed into the phone.

 "It is my friend Brandon. "

"WELL YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TALK TO HIM!!" He screamed. 

"You can't tell me what to do because you're not my boyfriend anymore!" I said.

 "WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY??" he screamed. 

"Me and you are through. BYE KYLE!!" I hung up. I felt a tear roll down my cheek. Brandon gently pushed my head into his chest. 

"Let it out, Mackenzie." he said. I felt safe in his arms. 

"I'm tired," I mumbled, my voice muffled by his shirt. Brandon lifted me up and laid me on the bed. He then went on the other side of the bed and let me cuddle with him. I cried a little more and then drifted to sleep. The next morning I was woken up by people fighting. It sounded like Brandon and Hunter. 

"You know I like her," Hunter said, his voice stern.

 "Yeah but I like her too." 

"I've known her longer!" 

"Yeah but where were you last night when she need a shoulder to cry on. You were sound asleep. I know you heard her." 

"I thought she was okay."

 "I care about her more than yo-" I sat up before he could finish. 

"Did we wake you up?" Brandon asked as he walked over to me and sat next to me.

 "Yeah but its fine. I had to wake up now anyway. I have to go to the airport,"

 "I'll go with you," Both of them said at the same time. I just nodded.  As we were walking to the elevator, Brandon pulled me aside and told Hunter to call for an Uber and that we would meet him in the lobby. Hunter rolled his eyes. 

"Okay."

"When we were in the room, what did you hear?" Brandon asked me.

 "I heard you and Hunter say you guys liked me," I said trying to hide my smile. He just said 

"Oh." He said before reaching for my hand. I let him grab it and we went to the elevator. When we got down to the lobby Hunter was on the phone.

Hunter
I was on the phone with Mark when I saw Brandon and Kenzie holding hands. 

"I got to go Mark. I'll talk to you later." I hung up the phone before he could say goodbye. Kenzie let go of Brandon's hand a walked over to me.

 "What time are they coming, weirdo?" She asked. 

"Soon and stop calling me weirdo."

 "Okay weirdo." I just rolled my eyes and laughed. 

"Who were you on the phone with last night? I heard you screaming but I didn't want to eavesdrop." I didn't know what else to say and that just slipped out. 

"It was my boyfriend. Well ex-boyfriend.. I broke up with him," She said with tears filling her eyes. 

"Come here," I sighed pulling her into a hug.

 "Can I jump on your back??" She asked. 

"Fine..." She jumped on my back and purposely flipped her hair in my face. I laughed and almost dropped her. 

Brandon
Kenzie and Hunter were flirting. It was gross. After a couple minutes the Uber came and Kenzie got off of Hunter's back. We got in the Uber and when we got to the airport, Kenzie got back on Hunter's back. Hunter ran to the seating area and when Kenzie saw Kyla she jumped off and ran to her. They hugged and then she came back to us. 

"This is Brandon and this is Hunter," Kenzie said introducing her friend to us. 

"Oh, the Hunter and Brandon you talk about so much?"

 "Shut up!!" Kenzie blushed. She talked about us... What does that mean? Did she like us? Well, she definitely liked Hunter. I mean why else would they be holding hands right now.
