Ali's POV

I haven't even been in Nashville for 2 days and I already wanted to go home.

I was lying in the floor in Taylor's arms, half asleep. I checked the clock. 5:00 a.m.

I was so dead. I could even move. My face was stiff from crying. I had nothing to do, no where to go.

So I called Tiffany.

It took a while for her to pick up. After all, it was 5:00 am on a Sunday morning.

"Hello"

"Hey"

"What's up?! I miss you like crazy. How are the boys there?"

"Honestly I wanna go home. It's been pure hell. Sean came, to get me back. And I said no, and now I can't stop crying," I said trailing off into sobs.

"Why did you say no? Do you regret it? Is that why you're crying?"

"No. I don't regret it. I don't know why Im sad. Someone was stopping me from saying yes. Like I needed to be with someone else."

"Who?"she asked.

I thought for a second. It was all so clear now.

"Taylor."

"Taylor? Your friend from Indiana?"

"Yeah," I sighed. "I think so."

"Then tell him that, not me."

"He likes someone else, not me. He told me. I don't wanna screw up the friendship either. I'm just really confused. I don't know what I want,"

"Then let me tell you what you want. You want a perfect boyfriend, better than Sean ever was. And, you want it to be Taylor."

"That's exactly what I want. Thanks tiff"

"No problem,"

We talked for a little while longer, 2 hours. She was such an amazing friend, I probably didn't even deserve her. It was a Sunday morning, she got up at 5:00 to talk to me. If that's not being a super friend, I don't know what is.

-----

After everyone woke up. We ate French toast and talked about how the day would go.

Then I got ready.

I paired light wash denim shorts with a short, white & back polka dotted shirt.

I decided to let my hair down and I did my makeup. I put my shoes on and headed out my door, only to be stopped by Matt.

"Hey," I said sweetly.

He put his hands around my waist and pulled me closer.

I didn't know where this was going, but I went along with it.

"I was wondering if maybe you wanted to do something tonight."

I smiled and he blushed. He was asking me out.

"Is the Matthew Espinosa asking me out on a date?"

"Only if you say yes.."

"Yes."

"YES!"

I laughed at how stupid he was.

"See ya later," he ran out of the room with the biggest smile on his face.

Taylor was walking in as he was walking out.

"What's he so happy about?"

"He just asked me out,"

His eyes widened. "What did you say?"

"Yes."

Taylor POV

"Yes."

My world shattered.

She

Was

Going

On

A

Date

With

Matt.

Not me.

I didn't think he would actually ask her! I said it to comfort him, not give him ideas!

Wow, congratulations Taylor. The girl of your dreams is going out with your best friend because of you.

What have I done?
