Chapter 22

Hours had passed, I was beginning to fall asleep.

Then my phone started ringing.

Grayson.

"Hey babe!" I eagerly said, as I accepted the call.

"Babe huh? I guess the whole name thing is growing on you?" He laughed.

"Oh no, I'm totally fine with that type of name. Just no pet type names."

"Okay, fine." He replied with a calm tone.

"How was the meet and greet?" I said, changing subjects.

"It was amazing. I love meeting our fans, ya know? For years that's all we ever wanted, was to meet all of the people that made our dreams come true.."

"I'm so happy for you." I smiled.

I'm aware that he could not see me smiling, but I did it anyways... so stop judging me.

"Thank you.. Enough about me.. What'd you want to talk about?"

"Well.." I began to say with a sigh.

"Uh-oh. What happened?" He asked concerned.

"Dylan."

"Is she okay?"

"I wouldn't know, she won't talk to me.."

"Well I'm sure she's just missing you.. Give it a few days."

"That's what I thought too, but she called me the day before I left.."

"What'd she say?"

"She told me she's the one responsible for the Instagram account, Grayson."

"You mean the-"

"-Yep.. That one."

"Oh my God.. Do you believe her?"

"I don't know how else she would have known about it.. I never told her," I took a deep breath, "She said some really hurtful things though, I tried patching everything up, but... She's completely shutting me out and I have no idea what I did."

"Trust me when I say this and I am not saying this because you're my girlfriend..." he cleared his throat, "She doesn't deserve you if she's going to treat you like that. If she won't tell you why she's doing this, then she is not worth your time. No point in stressing about someone who doesn't care about you. Okay?"

"Yeah.. Thanks Gray.."

"Anytime. I just don't want to see you hurt.."

"Yeah," I yawned, "you too.."

He chuckled, "You tired?"

"That noticeable huh?" I bit my lip, as I wiped the tired tears from my eyes.

"Get some rest. I'll talk you tomorrow, then I'll be there before you know it."

"Okay goodnight."

"Night ally-bear."

"Really Grayson, really?" I rolled my eyes.

"It's only because I love you.." he laughed.

"I love you too." I smiled.

"Okay, I'm hanging up now, so go to bed." He laughed.

"Okay." I yawned again.

And with that, he ended the call.

I locked my phone and put it on the charger, then I dozed off.
