Two Days Later

Jack's POV
          I lay in my bunk playing on my phone. You know just scrolling through twitter and such. Just following up on all my friends back home. Trying to get my mind off of everything.
"Jack," Katy yells.

"What," I sigh.
            The curtain opens and there she is all smiley faced.
"We stopped for food. Come on."
            I groan and get off the bunk to go get my shoes on. Lord I hate human interaction with strangers. It's just awkward. Katy and I walk into the Wendy's as I have my hood up covering up my face which is all puffy from crying. The two of us go up to the counter and I see Mark waiting in front of me. God I could have been able to contain myself before. Now that he's just been brought up all the time in our conversations I can't even look at him without balling.
"Kat can you just order me some nuggets. I'll be on the bus," I whisper.

"I'll order for you, but you're waiting in here for me. You can go sit by Felix until our order is done."

"Fine."
         I get out of line after handing her money and going to go find Felix. He sits at his little table with his food and a smile. I seat myself across from him and rest my head in my hands.
"You good buddy?"
            All I do is answer with a shrug. Felix goes back to stuffing his face full of food. Mark, Max, Wade and John pass by the two of us and I try so hard not to make eye contact with Mark. Katy soon comes to the table and hands me my food. I slowly eat it all trying to clear my head. However it's just not working. I was doing so good, but then it all has to go down the drain when all of this is going on. Lord all I want is to stop all of this.

Mark's POV
          All of sit on the bus learning all the new music I wrote for this new album. Which I haven't run by management at all. Regardless every song I play is going to be on an album.
"So have you talked to the boss about all this," Wade asks.

"Not at all. If I asked she would just tell me no. I've also paid the sound guy to not listen to her for that night. Which is going to help us greatly."

"The real question is what if he still doesn't accept all of this after all the trouble," John questions.

"Then I'll have to just stop. If this doesn't work then I have no other choice than to stop."

"Well then we better work hard because I don't want you to stop. Neither does Katy nor Felix. So let's get back to work gentleman," Max smiles getting our spirits back up.

Jack's POV
         I lay in my bunk once again scrolling through Instagram. However it's soon stopped by a text message. It's unknown, but I click on it to see the text.
Unknown:
Hey, it's Ashley aka Halsey. How you and Mark doing on tour.

Me:
We kind of aren't together anymore.

Ashley:
Oh no :( I'm sorry Jack I didn't know.

Me:
It's fine I understand.

Ashley:
Well I'm coming to the show tomorrow and to hang out since I have a signing in the area. Maybe we could hang out for a bit?

Me:
Definitely. It would have to be on my lunch, but it should work out.

Ashley:
Perfect! See you tomorrow then :)

Me:
See ya!
          Low key the best thing to happen in the last couple days. Basically becoming best friends with Halsey and it's just making me very happy.
            My curtain is pulled open by Katy and she rests her crossed arms on my bed. She smiles softly at me and I give her one back.
"Wanna come watch a movie with us?"

"Yeah."
           I hop out of the bunk and follow her to the back room. We all sit as Felix puts in the movie.
"What're we watching?"

"The Fault In Our Stars. I haven't seen it yet," Felix shrugs.

"Me neither."

"You'll love it," Katy smiles.

Okay so next chapter is the final chapter and there will most like be an epilogue, but still. I hope you guys have been enjoying this story. I'm really proud of it and the whole idea. Probably one of my favorites to write.
