Crystal Eyes Tell Pretty Lies

Chapter: 5 Journey to Magcon

Ryleigh's POV:

    I packed my bags for Atlanta, Georgia. That was the next Magcon destination. Nash and I were flying together from North Carolina to Georgia. It would definitely be a bonding experience. We headed to the airport in our matching Nike sweats. I was wearing a t-shirt from my school, and Nash was wearing tie dye. As soon as we got to the airport, a group of girls mobbed us. Eventually after I took pictures of all ten girls with my boyfriend they put two and two together.

    "IS NASH YOUR BOYFRIEND?" a fangirl screamed. I looked over at Nash to see how much they could know. He shook his head yes. "Uhh.. yeah." I answered shyly. They all examined me and my cheeks flushed bright red. "You're like really pretty." a blonde said as they all chirped "yes" in agreement. "Thanks guys, my name is Ryleigh." They all wanted pictures with me which took me aback. Eventually we had to leave because our flight was boarding.

    I had never ridden a plane before and I was absolutely terrified. I looked over at Nash as they went over security details. He must have sensed the terror in my eyes because he reached over and grabbed my head. Flying was the most exhilarating thing I had ever experienced. It was crazy to me that Nash could sleep the whole ride away while I was bustling with energy.

    We landed and took a limo to the hotel. I decided to check twitter to look for those girls we had met at the airport. My phone had blown up while I was in the air. I had went from 500 followers to 3,000 in a short period of time. My own picture was all over my timeline. I had fan accounts I was friends with DMing me asking me why I had never told them. There were pictures of girls in tears because of me, death threats, and people giving out my personal information. I sucked in a breath fighting back tears reading some of the things people had said to me. Nash plucked my phone out of my hands. "Don't worry about it, I'm just a normal guy, and they're all overreacting." But I knew I would do the same thing if I was in their shoes.

We were going to meet the guys at the hotel soon and I was so nervous and giddy. We exited the limo and I looked up anxious to enter the hotel and meet the guys that meant so much to Nash. Nash put his hoodie up, intertwined our fingers, and led me into the hotel room. There were only a few girls in the lobby because had arrived so early. They all asked Nash for pictures and I waited about a half hour for him to take pictures and say hello to all of them. "Alright guys I'm sorry, but I'm exhausted, I'm heading to my room. Bart had already checked in and given us the key. The elevator ride was weird. Nash, Bart, and I rode up to the 12th floor together in complete silence.

    "I didn't know you were bringing a friend, so I guess she'll have to share a room with you and Cameron until I work out something else." We settled into our room and Nash asked if he could get me something to eat. He headed out the door to get fast-food, and I decided now was the best time to get a shower since I would be around the guys all day. I took my contacts out. Then I hopped in and took time washing my hair and shaving my legs. I heard the door open and assumed it was Nash with our food. I ran out of the shower wrapping myself in my towel excited to eat. I hurried out of the door and saw him, turned away from me and I placed a kiss on his neck. "Nash, what did you bring me babe."

    "Uhh.. I'm not Nash." an unfamiliar voice said.
