Touring For The First Time (COMPLETED)

Chapter 6

Edited

Blake POV:
I hid behind the curtain, hearing fans scream with excitement as the announcer started to call for us to come out. Adrenaline pumped through my system when my name was called through the microphone. Jogging towards the stage, fan screaming my name as I waved at them. I sat on a stool, waiting for everyone to come out behind the curtains. A few sat on the stools, others decided to sit on the floor as we were doing a thing where a fan asks us a question and we answer it. Arms were in the air, hoping that they'll get picked and ask their question. It was Alex's turn to pick, picking a girl with a pink magcon shirt at the back. Everybody's eyes were turned towards the girl who was picked. 

"Are you and Blake dating?" she asked, everybody's eyes turned towards Alex and me specifically with curiosity in their eyes. It got quiet as Alex took a few moments to answer. She put the microphone near her mouth and spoke the words that stabbed me in the heart. "No, we barely know each other," she chuckled, putting the microphone down with a small smile. I could clearly tell that the smile was fake but the fans were fooled. 

Alex POV:
After answering the question, I looked over to Blake and hurt with a glimpsed of anger showing through his eyes. We made eye contact, the anger diminished but the hurt stayed there. I looked away and payed attention to the questions. After answering a few more questions, some of the guys wanted to have a dance battle. It was against Blake, Zach, and Mark. Blake doing the most classic dance move ever recorded and it was sadly the sprinkler. Zach did this weird move with his legs and Mark did an inappropriate dance move getting all girls crazy.  

Later on, we attended the fans that bought a meet and greet ticket. The group stood in a line, with two feet apart from one another. Fixing my shirt a little, I waited for the next person and it was the same person who I chose that wore the magcon shirt. As she got closer, I realized that she was a little taller than me by an inch and red waves framing her face. I smiled at her and was about to hug her when she stopped in front of me. 

"I know that you and Blake know each other, it was obvious so here's a little thought you can think about. He's mine so back off and do us a favor, die," she threatened, seething with anger.

Everybody wanted to go out for dinner, celebrating the first show of the tour and I declined, lying to them that I needed rest. As I walked inside the bus, tears burst out of my eyes, letting them flow freely. Sitting at the back of the bus in a corner, I looked out of the tinted windows and questioned myself

Why did Blake bully me?

What did it happened to me?

Silently crying, I recalled all those happy memories with him. The day we threw mud pies at each other to watching movies together on the couch.

Hearing the door opening, I quickly wiped my wet cheeks and found a random book on the bench, pretending I was reading it. A big fat tear escaped out my eye, hoping the person who entered didn't see it. 

"A sad scene?" a voice I recognized as Hunter asked, sitting next to me. I looked at the book title, mentally face palming myself as it was a cooking book. I looked at him, to see that he was smirking at me, knowing that I got caught red-handed. 

Putting the book down on my lap, I sighed, "Something got me in the head and I didn't feel like going to dinner." I froze as he slowly wiped the tear with his thumb. 

He retreated back to his previous position and looked at me, "If I was that fan, I would've kept it in my mouth," he looked at my surprised expression and explained. "I kinda heard your conversation between you and her." 

Then he asked me to change to comfier clothes, knowing that I was exhausted from the show. I walked back to see Hunter thinking very deeply until I showed up. He smiled at me and patted the seat next to him, then looked up at the tv that was showing a movie he probably put on. The first thirty minutes of the movie, my eyes started to get droopy. Trying to get in a comfortable position, I put my head on Hunter's left shoulder, moving close to him for warmth. As I was entering a deep slumber, I felt his lips kissed my forehead. 

Blake POV:

While everyone was finishing dinner up, Hunter was nowhere to be seen. He probably went to get some sleep since it was really late at night. Once we got back on the bus, everybody was at the back of the bus with their phones out recording something. Moving closer to what they were recording, jealousy built up as I saw Hunter and Alex sleeping very closely for my liking. His arm was around her and her head propped against his chest, sleeping peacefully.
