Love is a Verb (Riley/Before You Exit)

Are you sure about this?

The plane ride was better than I've expected minus the part where I puked. All in all it was a good ride. I was awake most of the ride though. I can't sleep at all so I put my attention to sounds while Thomas sleeps soundly beside me..

I heard the captain announce that we have 5 minutes before we land. Sheesh. I'm getting more and more nervous at the moment. Would they accept me? I'm 15 and I am not a professional and again I'm young. They might think I'm a hassle and I'm a girl. Who would want me around? Why did I even said yes to this? I didn't think about it too well. I need to wake up Thomas.

"Thomas..." I said, slowly shaking him. "Thomas.. Thomas.. Wake up." I kept shaking him which didn't work so I resort to slapping him on the forehead. I laughed but it was short to even actually consider as a laugh.

"What the--" I cut him off. He glared at me.

"Choice of words. Sides, I kept trying to wake you up cause we're about to land. You were sleeping so deep. Sorry."

"Nah. It's fine. I can't believe I'm back here in Florida. I'm so excited." He smiled at me and I just gave him a weak smile.

"What's wrong?" He asked as he places a hand on my knee.

"Nothing." I said, smiling weakly again.

He scoffed and pushed me lightly. Honestly, I know he won't buy my nothing. Who does? "Don't nothing me missy."

"Don't call me missy." I retorted and he rolled his eyes.

"Then tell me." I sighed. "Don't try and change the subject because I'm just going to push you even more."

"I'm scared."

"Of ?"

"What if they don't like me? What if they don't like my pictures? I would need to go back home and waste the money that you paid for my ticket." I said to him.

"Why would you think that? Just because you're not a professional doesn't mean you don't take good shots. You do. And not taking any classes for that means you have the talent. A natural talent. So don't think that they wouldn't like you." I sighed loudly.

"But..."

"But what?"

"I'm too young for the job. Are you sure that it will be fine? To the parents of the band? I'm young. Do you really think that this is a good idea, Thomas?"

"So what if you're young? The brothers parents will understand. They can't just send you back plus you're the same age as Toby. It would be a whole lot easier for us when you take pictures. You'll enjoy too cause you're young and close to our ages. And to point out a good thing is that you act as an adult. If you need to be responsible , you would do it. You act mature. You're not like those girls that only knows makeup and dresses. Okay, that sounded bad but you get my point. You think better and wider than that so don't think that they won't like you cause I'm pretty sure that they will." He looked at me straight. He was being so nice and supportive. I smiled at him and hugged him tight. "Be positive, okay? Don't let those issues of yours get to you. You're actually stepping out. I'm proud." I smiled at what he said to me. I can do this. I just hope it goes well. Oh mighty God, help me get through this.

Thomas

She was scared. Why is she so scared? Because she's young? I'm sure Mrs. McDonough will understand. As for the guys, they've been asking for her a lot when we Skype so I'm so sure they would say yes especially Riley. Wait what? What am I saying again. Wow. I'm so weird.

"Oh I have to tell Chandee that I'm here." Kaitlin said. I gave her my phone.

"Here. Use my twitter. DM her. Unless you have a wifi. You can't use your phone. Maybe I should buy you a new phone considering you'll travel a lot."
