"I'm going to hit a pub with Kathleen tonight" van said looking at us
It was pissing me off.
He met a girl who is now out merch girl.
He is flirting around with her and that.
Of course van didn't know i fancied him but still.
"Have a good one lad" Bob said
"You wanna have a few drinks tonight?" Bondy asked me sitting next to me
I looked at him "sure" i whispered standing up
Bondy was a good mate, everyone thought we were a thing nowadays.
I stood up, bondy offered his hand
I chuckled and took to smiling at him
We walked towards a local pub and got in
"What do you want, lass?" Bondy asked me
"I would like a red wine please" I said sitting down "can i have one red wine and a beer please?" He asked
I looked around
"So, you like tour so far?" Bondy asked me
I nodded "it's amazing really, me and Bob explored London yesterday" i said with a nod
"Yeah me and van had an interview yesterday, I like it though, it's the best talking about music and people that are interested and that" he said smiling "that's great, i wanted to be a rock star when i was younger" i chuckled
He's eyes grew wide "were you any good then?" He asked i shook my head "I just wanted to play gigs and that" i whispered smiling
"It's the best really" he said
"So what's going?" He asked
"What do you mean bond?" I asked taking a sip of my wine
"Between you and van" he said
I shook my head "nothing honestly" i chuckled
He raised an eyebrow
"His fancying the Kathleen girl right?" I asked he shook his head "she's just a mate, he fancies you" bondy said i laughed softly lighting another ciggy "what makes you think that?" I asked him
"We all see the way he looks at you, Lexi"
I sighed and shook my head

- 3 weeks later
"Goodnight, love" van said looking at Kathleen
She smiled and walked out of the tour bus
I sat in the rest room smoking a cigarette
He sat down opposite me
I looked at him
He looked at me
There was a long silence before i spoke up
"You two look cute" i lied
"We aren't together" he said
I finished my ciggy
"Why?" He asked
I knitted my eyebrows together
"Just, no reason" i said looking at him
"Lexi?" He asked
"Yes?"
"Why?" He asked again
"Why what?"
"Why have you been ignoring me?"
"Cause i don't feel the need to talk to you"
"Everything was good a year-" he started
"A fucking year ago when you told me you fancied me and just disappeared for a year!" I said raising my voice
"I was on tour, Bob and Becky never had problems" he said
"Yeah that's cause Bob called her afterwards" i whispered looking at him
"You told me you didn't fancy me and told me to go away" he said
I sighed "you know what van? Never mind alright, pretend this never happened-" I started and stood up
"No fuck that, i don't want to pretend anymore" he said standing up
I knitted my eyebrows together again
"What are you talking ab-"
"No fuck off!" Becky yelled walking into the room "Becky mate, what's going on-"
"We are going home, Lexi" she said with tears in her eyes
"We are?" I asked confused
"Becky don't leave" Bob sighed walking in
"You screwed up you" she said looking at him
I looked at them awkwardly and walked to the lounge room where my stuff was "where are you going?" Bondy asked as i grabbed all my stuff together "home i suppose" i whispered
"You what mate?" He said "Bob and Becky...they kinda- I think they had a fallout and now we're going home" i said
"Are they nuts? Can't lose me mate 'ere" he sighed standing up i smiled at him
"I'm so confused honestly but I'll miss you that's for sure" i sighed hugging him
He nodded kissing my cheek "I'll miss you more" he whispered
We pulled away eventually when van walked in
"I'm sorry i didn't mean to- becky's waiting she said" he told us looking at me
I grabbed my two bags and walked out of the door walking past van
"I'll phone you" I said to bondy he nodded with a weak smile "take care, love" he whispered
I walked out of the bus without saying goodbye to any of the other lads
I was kinda upset about that
I saw Bob standing outside with Becky
She was obviously mad you could tell
"Take care, Bob" I said with a half smile being completely confused about what was happening "I'm sorry for everything have a safe trip back" he whispered with a weak smile
I nodded walking away from the bus
"What's going on?" I asked Becky
We walked towards a taxi
"Me and Bob broke up."
"That's it? No explanation?"
"Well obviously"
"Obviously? I fucking quit working to go on a fucking tour for you with absolutely non of my friends and no money!" I yelled being obviously angry at her
"Non of my friends? You and bondy, and Larry, and van-" she started
"Just shut it ,okay?" I said
I stepped into a different taxi as her
Luckily we were close to home.

I sighed as i walked into my apartment
Becky's brother probably didn't even know where she was.
I sighed lighting a cigarette
Yes i stopped but i guess I was starting again
I shook my head putting my jacket off
Van.
Van was on my mind the whole time
I called bondy "hello, love" he said
"I'm home" I whispered "you alright, lass?" He asked i closed my eyes "no, no I'm not" i whispered "what's wrong?" He asked
"I'm not sure if I'm ready to talk about it, I- I'll call you later yeah?" I asked "sure, love of of course, take care" he said "cheers, bondy" I whispered hanging up
I sat down with my eyes closed
What the fuck was i supposed to do now?
I had no Job
No best mate
No money
No one.
