No More Tears - EDITING NOW!

Chapter 2

Chapter 2:

         Thursday Afternoon - 4.50PM:

        Averia got off the bus in Florida to then get a taxi to the spa hotel. Harley had arranged to meet Averia outside the doors, to help with her bags and get her checked in. While in the taxi, she noticed the driver keep glancing back at her.

They stopped at some lights, 'Something wrong?' she asked, getting pretty sick of it.

'No, sorry. I just recognize you.' He paused.

He then continued, 'You're that models sister aren't you?' He asked.

'Yeah...I am.' Averia said.

'Ah, knew I knew you from somewhere.'

He turned about around and carried on driving her to the spa.

This place looked pretty posh from what she's seen of it.

When Harley had invited her here she'd looked up the place on the internet.

'River Valley Spa & Hotel.' Very nice, what's he trying to do? Seduce me?! Averia joked to herself.

The taxi driver eventually pulled up at some big black gates with a white wall all around.  This must be the place. Finally...

The gates opened and the driver dropped her off at the doors. While Harley got her bags out of the taxi, Averia payed the fare. She then turned around and, as the taxi was speeding off , throwing up dust, she ran over to Harley who scooped her up in a massive hug.

'Hey.' He smiled. 'Stupid question but, how are you?'

'I guess I'm OK.' Averia smiled. 

'Sure?'

'Yeah. It's just that having that statement meeting yesterday kinda bummed me out but other than that, I'm all good.' Averia smiled, reassuring Harley there was no need to worry about her.

'Well as long as your OK and healthy?' He looked at Averia.

'Yep.' Averia smiled

'Pregnant?' He raised his eyebrows at her.

'Nope.' She laughed.

'Good, that's what I like to hear.' He then picked up some of Averia's bags and helped her inside with them.

'Let's get you checked in.'  Harley had always been good at making Averia smile. She almost saw him as a brother.

He'd looked after her for a few years, when she was in school, when she met him. He was 1 year above her, one of the eldest in his year. 

        They met through Averia's friend Rosie, who dated Harley's best friend, Jake, who is now Harley's guitarist. Then through those two Averia met  drummer Alex, Bass player Naomi and occasional Pianist or Keyboardist Kyle Marrow.

This was her first time meeting the others, and she couldn't wait to get to dinner with them tomorrow night to get to know them.

After Averia had checked in, Harley walked her over to his band-mates, 'Hey guys, this is my friend Averia, or Avie as I call her.' Averia smiled and waved.

'Hi guys.' she said. 'Nice to meet you.'

'Hey, I'm Alex, this is Naomi...' Alex said gesturing towards a pretty, dark haired girl, 'And this is Kyle.' Kyle then waved.
