I Got Drunk And Married An Arrogant Rockstar? You've Got To Be Kidding Me! [17]

.:Previously...

Luke.

Erm...

"Hello," I said awkwardly.

"Hey. Did Alex leave yet?" he asked.

I felt sorry for him as soon as he said it. Alex didn't tell him about it yet.

"He left yesterday. Sorry...He didn't tell you?"

"No," he said with such odious condescension in his voice. I knew he didn't mean it towards me, he meant it towards his brother. "I thought they were leaving in a week. I need to talk to him now, but he's not picking up his phone. Figures he would just leave."

I pursed my lips as I thought of Alex.

"Ah, come in," I suggested.

He nodded and walked in.

Chapter 17...

It was a little weird having Luke in the same room as me without Alex. I mean, I'm married to his brother...You can see the problem.

"So," I said, "what'd you need to tell Alex?"

"Just something about the band."

I didn't question him further, it was clear he didn't really want to talk about it. I was okay with that, and I didn't want to make enemies with anyone, especially Alex's brother.

I told Luke that I would be right back. My phone was in my room. In Colorado it was 5:40, one hour ahead of us. It's still early enough.

I walked into my bedroom and dialed Alex's number. I held my breath as I waited for an answer.

"Hello?"

No. No. No. No! That voice wasn't Alex's. Rage and jealousy filled me as soon as the voice spoke. No...

"What the fuck...?"

"Surprised?" she asked with pride in her voice.

"What are you doing?"

"My job," but Audrey was avoiding the question.

Damn her.

I didn't say anything for a few seconds. My fists clenched and unclenched. If I said something now it wouldn't be pretty. I squeezed my eyes shut. Audrey was with Alex in Colorado...and I was in Los Angeles with Luke. Seriously?

"Answer. The. Question."

"Hah, okay. Alex's agent called mine; he thought it would be perfect if we had a duet. I agreed. You too? Wonderful. Anyway, I came here to Denver and met up with Alex and the guys," she laughed. "Right now we're about to have dinner. Jealous?"

"I will stab you multiple times. No mercy."

"Thought you'd say that."

"Why, Audrey? You know he doesn't like you."

"So," I pictured her rolling her eyes, "I'm not going to give up. He liked me once before, I'm sure he will like me again."

This time I rolled my eyes. "That's not how it works in life. There's a huge difference between reality and Hollywood."

"Sure, but we're both from Hollywood."

Idiot.

"Audrey. Alex and I are married."

The other side of the line went silent. I didn't feel like getting mad at Alex for not saying anything. I probably wouldn't have either. Or wanted to much less.

"Skank," was all she said.

It didn't bother me because I knew it wasn't true. Alex was the first guy I actually thought was decent. "Yeah, you're right, Audrey, even though you're trying to steal MY husband. It's not like YOU are the one that's jealous," I scoffed. "Skank."

And then I remembered Luke.

"I will get you, Audrey," I said. "But I have to go. I hate you."

"Aw, I hate you too. I'll make sure to tell Alex you called. But...Not that he'll care or anything. He did leave you to go to Colorado."

I gritted my teeth as I hung up. I felt chagrin hearing her say that. It's not true, it's not true.

I would've been semi-okay with it if Brian or Nate picked up. Not Audrey, I didn't even know she was going to be there. I hated the fact that Audrey was even near him.

I squared my shoulders and walked back to the living room. Luke was staring idly out the window. I frowned.

"Sorry about that," I said.

"It's fine."

"So, they left you here too?" I tried to add some humor but I don't think it's working.

"Yep. Like a fish out of water. Well, not really Nevermind," he laughed. Not a fake, forced laugh but a real, genuine laugh. Well, that's good. Luke doesn't seem like a bad person anymore.

"Are you doing anything this weekend?" he asked. It took me by surprise at first and I felt a little uncomfortable. I paused for a minute to think.

I had thought about something whilst talking to Audrey. I thought about going to Denver on my own. I still had some money-definitely enough to buy a plane ticket.

But I worried about it making me seem clingy. Then again, I could just be in the crowd, maybe see Alex at least once. That doesn't seem too clingy. I'll stay to watch one concert.

I contemplated this for a few minutes. Should I go to Denver?

But then I looked at Luke who was staring at me hopefully. I thought of his hatred for his brother.

I pursed my lips. But...Alex. I have a relationship with Alex, not Luke. Would it seem unfair to put Luke before Alex?

"Uh, I'm going to...well, I was thinking about going to Colorado."

His expression didn't change. "Ah, because of Alex. I see." He nodded.

"I am sorry. I am still thinking about it," I didn't realize how weird those words came out until they were actually said.

"No, it's fine. Go! He's your..." He looked at me questioningly.

"Husband," I said in a small voice.

"Yeah. Are you doing anything today, then?" he laughed.

"Nothing. Today would be good." I shrugged. "We only have a few hours, though." I walked over to the window and looked out it. There weren't as many people as there was before, but there were still a lot of people, nonetheless.

"You should probably book your flight now. The next concert is in three days."

"True." I went back in to my room to retrieve my laptop. It was on the side counter near the bed. It was charged up fully, and I was glad for that.

I plopped down on the couch next to Luke, booted up the computer, and went on the internet to book the flight. I was too lazy to call a Travel Agency.

Without thinking about it, I spoke my thoughts. "You should come. You don't have to go to the concert or anything, but it would be nice to have company. Plus, as nice as California is, it beats staying here."

"Maybe."

"I'll pay for it." I had a budget big enough for the two of us.

"I don't know."

"Just for a day. As friends, I promise."

"Fine." He reached for something in his pocket and brought out a wallet. I shook my head but he gave me money anyway.

So instead of buying one ticket, I bought two.
