Collide (Jake Miller Series book 3)

Chapter 26: Boise Idaho

Amanda's POV

                As we were backstage Jake and them were goofing around talking about how they don't feel pain. It reminded me of how when Jake and I started dating how our love seemed invincible with all the things going on.

                "You alright?" I hear. I look up to see everyone staring at me.

                "Yeah." I give them a fake smile. Jake raises my eyebrow letting me know he doesn't buy it but we'll talk later.

He heads onstage and Megan pulls me aside.

                "Alright what's wrong?" she asks.

                "Nothing." I smile.

                "Seriously Amanda?"

                "Fine, I was just thinking about how when Jake and I started dating how many obstacles we had to overcome."

                "And…"

                "I'm thankful for him Megan. Most guys would have just given up on us….they would have left me…" I look out on the stage and watch Jake jump around. He seems truly happy being on stage with his fans, performing, saving lives.

                "That's cause he has you. You make him happy." She says.

                "What?"

                "You were thinking out loud." Megan smiles.

                "Oh haha." I laugh.

Later that night as Jake and I are laying in bed, I feel Jake get up. I lay still and listen to him shuffle around. I finally roll over and watch as he pulls something out of his bag and stare at it. I hear him sniff.

                "babe?" I question.

                "Yeah?" He doesn't look at me. I softly get up and crawl over to him. I wrap my arms around his waist and look over his shoulder at a picture of us, back when we first started dating.

                "Everything was so simple then…" I sigh.

                "Yeah…..I wouldn't change anything though." He smiles.

                "Me either."

                In Spokane Washington, one of Jake's smaller shows the lucky fan he pulled up on stage was nervous. I giggled as she struggled to keep her composure around my fiancé. Eventually the show was over and we were on to celebrate Joey's birthday. I can only imagine him and Megan having birthday sex that night. But secretly I hope they wouldn't cause I don't want them to end up like Jake and i. Honestly it's none of my business if they do.

When we get to Seattle Washinton, it's JP's birthday, so he takes birthday shots with him on stage and sings Hollywood with him.

That night in the hotel we meet a total stranger named Dimitri, who gives us pizza. While Jake and then are talking to him Megan pulls me aside.

                "What's up?" I ask her.

                "I think I'm pregnant." She says.

                "What? Are you sure? oh god no…" I look down at her stomach.

                "Joey and I had unprotected sex…it was stupid but I really love him.." She starts crying.

                "Oh sweetie…" I pull her into a tight hug.

                "Is everything okay?" I hear Jake ask. I turn my head to see him standing there looking worried.

                "Nothing babe. I promise. Megan is just a bit overwhelmed that's all." I lie.

                "You sure?" he asks. I nod and he heads back over to the Dimitri who tries to do a cartwheel.

                "Are you going to tell him?" I ask pulling away from Megan. She nods.

                "When?"

                "As soon as I find out. I'm taking a test tonight." she wipes away her tears.

                "I hope everything works out." I give her a smile.

                "Me to."
