Rydel's POV:

I tried getting out of Ellington's grasp but as soon as I was almost up he pulled me back down and into his lap.

"Ellington Lee Ratliff, let me get uppp!" I pouted.

"hm.. let me think.. no," he chuckled.

"We need to get ready for the showwwww, isn't Kelly meeting up with you today too?" I questioned.

"Oh yeah! I forgot all about that," he sprang up from his seat and took me with him. He twirled me around like the prince twirls his princess around in the movies. I guess he was excited?

Ell got changed into black skinny jeans, and a plain gray shirt. He also put on a pair or black and white converse.

I, on the other hand, got changed into a yellow crop top, a red, black, yellow and white plaid skirt, black socks that went up to about mid-calf, and my short black steve madden boots. Of course, I added a few bracelets to one of my arms, and about 3 necklaces around my neck. I was ready. I let my mom apply some makeup to my face, and hairspray stick-up hairs. Actually, now I was ready for the day.

At the venue fans were already lined up. The line was small yet, but there was still enough for a big smile to form on my face. I loved our fans, more than anything in the world, they tried so hard to just get a simple tweet from us, I found that quite cute. Especially our foreign fans! Their accents got to me every time. I looked to the right, and in the corner of my eye I saw Kelly.

"Hey Ell," I said, slapping his arm lightly.

"Hm?" He questioned, turning to me.
I pointed Kelly's direction; he gasped as he saw her. He ran to her and engulfed her in a big hug, twirling her around.
I sighed. I longed for my first boyfriend. Ellington looked happier than I'd seen him in weeks.. Kelly? Not so much. She looked nervous. But why could she possibly be nervous?

Ell snatched her hand and intertwined their fingers, Kelly faintly smiled. I couldn't keep my eyes off them, it was bugging me why Kelly looked so.. weird. He walked over to me and grinned.

"Hey girl!" I said to Kelly, bringing her into a hug. I rubbed her back slightly.

"Wanna go catch up?" She grinned.

"Can we?" I pleaded to Ellington.

"He rolled his eyes playfully, "surree!"

Kelly and I skipped to the tour bus. I was happy to see my gal pal I hadn't seen in forever. Nor talked to because of timezones!!! Anyways, me and Kelly walked into the tiny living room kind of space and sat down on the couch.

"Hi girly! How've you been?" I grinned.

"Goo- Fi- terrible! I can't take it anymore!" She let out, a tear sliding down her cheek.

"Take what?" I asked, confused.

"I cheated on Ellington! I don't know how it happened it just did! I don't deserve Ell, he's too good for me! He's going to hate me!" She sobbed.

"Bring in it baby doll," I whispered, opening my arms for a hug. She gladly accepted and cried into my shoulder for what seemed like forever. She wiped away her final tears and I fixed the makeup that was smeared all over her face. She deserved at least some help from me.. she was right. Ellington will most definitely hate her. He's never hurt her, and she does this to him.

"Come on girly, the VIP starts soon, it'll be okay," I said, grabbing her hand and holding it, she smiled wide.

"Thank you Delly," she said sweetly.

"Anytime!" I said, swinging our hands back and forth.

The line had gotten a bit bigger, not much but there weren't many people that bought VIP. This venue was expensive. I feel bad.

We walked into the venue and joined the rest of the band. The were cracking jokes and laughing hysterically, waiting for the VIPs to be let in.

"When are ya gonna tell him?" I whispered in Kelly's ear.

"Now.." She said, breaking my grasp on her hand and walking over to Ellington. She took his hand and led him aside.

KELLY'S POV (this'll probs be the first and last POV for her):

I was nervous. Beyond nervous. I don't even know why I did it. Nick doesn't even compare to Ellington. I was desperate. Desperate for love and affection. Maybe this was for the best. Ell is always on tour or doing stuff with his parents. He's much more involved in the band than he was years, or even months ago. Hm. Maybe this really is for the best.

"Kellllyyy?" Ellington questioned, waving his hand in front of my face.

"Sorry, I was thinking," I smiled slightly.

"Bout whaaatt?" He grinned, kissing my cheek.

Why did he make this so hard.

"Ell, I - uh, I gotta tell you something.." I said, in almost a whisper.

"What is it?" He asked.
