Trevor's POV

Auckland. Our last stop. Our last show. Our last time performing as The Next Step. The last day of the tour. It hit everyone hard, Including myself. That morning of April 30th was depressing. Not only because of the tour ending but because I needed to get back to my agent. Just a few days ago I had found that I had a big decision to make. The opportunity that was before me could make or break my career in dance and acting. I knew my answer that I'm giving to my agent today is the right one but it doesn't feel like it. It somewhat feels wrong. That feeling I had from the moment I knew what I was doing, hadn't gone away and it's only getting worse. The feeling all of us felt today didn't help. It was in fact making me feel more guilty. The guilt of making this decision without Brittany's consent or just telling me what I should do, is killing me. I needed to tell her. Today most likely. I mean, today couldn't get any worse right?

I reach for my phone lying face up on the table in front of me, unlocked it and pulled up my messages. I pressed on Brittanys messages and typed up some words. I felt myself getting nervous. Really nervous where you don't breathe properly and a little shaky.

Yo Britt, Could I talk to you later today?

When I felt a little confidant, I sent it only regretting it seconds later. Should I've been more specific? Should I have told her in person? I quickly sent a second text saying its important then the uncertainty came back once more. The third text I sent was telling her to forget it. When I had sent the last text, a rush of relief came to me. I no longer had the feeling. Nervous and anxious mixed together.

I laid my head back, resting it on the chair. Myles and Lamar came out of the bedroom and greeted me with good mornings. I was wrapped up into a conversation with Myles when my phone lit up with a new message from Brittany. My nerves immediately came back as I picked up the phone and read her message.

Are you sure? I have time.

I replied with a answer that made it clear that it was no longer important. I put my phone back down and finished the conversation with Myles. The three of us went down to breakfast at the hotel, most of the cast was here, My eyes fell on my girlfriend. She had her hair down with her glasses on. Her smile was shown on her face as she giggled at Victoria. I would have sat by her if one of the seats were empty. The left, right and front of Brittany was taken by Victoria, Jordan and Briar. Isaiah was on the end, recording everyone like usual. Isaac was seated by Victoria while he massaged her shoulders while the girls laughed at how Isaac was terrible at massages. Brittany looked in my direction. She smiled getting up and making her way to me. She greeted the boys as Lamar and Myles went to find a seat. My eyes tore away from everyone and onto my girlfriend. She gave me a small kiss and spoke.

"Is everything ok?" She whispered and I nod giving a convincing smile. She nodded back and sat down in between the girls and caught up with their conversation. Breakfast on the last day was surprisingly cheerful. Jordan didn't want us to be down and she was the main one to keep everyone up in moral.

Whist at breakfast, I constantly glanced in Brittany's direction. She fortunately didn't catch on to me. I needed to talk with her despite my feelings. I couldn't eat that morning. I felt like throwing up when I took a sip of water. My nerves definitely were there and alive today. I just hope Brittany understands why I have to do this.

As I was packing for my flight to leave back home to Toronto tomarrow morning, Brittany entered. She came near me hugging me from behind.
