Heya! This chapter and probably the rest of the story are gonna be a little different.. I decided to make it more, "bookish". Like, less talking, and getting more inside the characters heads, y'know? Because I think I have wayyyyy to much talking, you don't really know what's going on inside the characters heads. So, I hope I don't fuck it up to much!
Enjooyyyy!

Sometimes, you should leave it alone, yet you don't.
Sometimes people are bad for you - but you can't bring yourself to let go.
So you keep trying, even when someone else enters your life.
Why?
Because you long for that feeling again - that feeling of safeness.
~Chole's POV~
I sat, drenched. I was cold. Obviously. I just didn't have the motivation to get up. I really don't know, maybe I have feelings for jake I never knew? Who knows anymore.
Not me.
I decided to get up, but collapse. I realized I've been sitting in the same position for two straight hours.
I slowly pull myself up, using a tree branch for support. I stomp around for a bit trying to get my feet to 'wake up.'
As I'm walking, I think.
I've been friends with Jake since forever - but I don't think it's occurred to me that I may have loved him.
I was soon greeted by a hard chest.
"Um sorry." I slowly look up, to be met by Chris Motionless.
He chuckles lightly. "It's fine, hey are you okay?" He asked, real emotion and concern filling his voice.
"I'm fine." I give a weak smile.
"Are you sure?" He asked again.
"Positive." I start to walk away again, but stumble up again.
Chris rushes to my side. "At least let me help you to your bus, Chloe." He chuckles that chuckle again.
"Okay." I smile weakly again. We walk toward the bus, and Kellin is outside under the verandah thingy we have.
"Oh my god, Chloe! You're okay! I was so worried." Kellin exclaims and pulls me out of Chris' embrace, obviously feeling protective.
I smile weakly for the third time in 15 minutes.
My make-up is smudged, down my face. Sometimes I debate on putting my make-up on, because it's to much effort. But I put it on anyway out of habit, and not being comfortable with myself.
For some odd reason, I feel a hot tear on my head. I slowly look up, to find Kellin sobbing.
"Uh, what's wrong?" I ask, worried and confused.
"I just, I got worried. Also I can't help but think this whole thing is my fault." He sobs more.
I stay silent for a second.
This is not like him.
"No. It's not, it's mine. I should have known from the start. Although me tripping Xena over was the protectiveness." I chuckled and looked up. Kellin had stop crying, luckily.
"Hey, I thought you were supposed to be the man in this - not me!" I started laughing.
He gave me a questioning look. "This?" He gestures to the both of us. Honestly I didn't think of Kellin anymore than a friend, I was still getting used to him again. Trusting him again.
"Yeah. This." I smile and hug him.
We were interrupted by a cough.
"Urhhmm, are you's gonna stand out here, drenched in rain being all 'ooo la la' or are you coming in?" Skylar and Josh stood there - Josh smirking.
"Oh, shucks. Thankyou for caring baby." I laugh as I say to a frowning Skylar. She was my closest friend now, I expect I have to warm back up to Jake. Skylar never really had many friends, she was bullied her entire life, until Jake and I came along. We picked Josh up along the way, and well Flame just kinda tagged along.
and then this happened.
We were all happy.
-----------------------
"Urgh." I groan as I wake up inside my bunk. I sit up, obviously forgetting I was in the middle, and hit my head.
"For fucks sake." I whisper yell, grabbing at my head. Kellin was asleep next to me.
Over night we had travelled to our next destination.
I believe it was Minnesota. (A/N: they're just gonna be random states.. Bear with me!)
"Kellin. Wake up." I shake him. I don't know why he was still here, but I knew he needed to get back to his bus.
He groaned. "Uhhhh. Where the fuck..? Oh. Hey Chlo."
"Get up, silly! You need to get back to your bus before someone sees you." I giggle a bit. I really have to stop that.
He gets up, and has a shower. Luckily everyone was still asleep.
We were standing at the door, he was on the grass and I was at the edge of the door.
"I'll see you tomorrow. Good luck tonight!" He calls as he walks away.
"Yep." I whisper into the air with a smile.
I walk back to the bus. I decided to go check out our set list for tonight.
1) Bring Me To Life
2) Haunted
3) Going Under
3) What You Want
4) My Immortal
(A/N: I know these are Evanescence songs, but for the sake of the story lets pretend they aren't! I'm to lazy to write anymore.. Plus I've been listening to Evanescence a lot lately, and thought these fitted the story perfectly. Okay, on with the story!)
"Cool. Okay so tonight should be a breeze." I say out loud not really thinking if someone was in the same room.
"What will be?" Flame asks, looking up from her Kerrang! Magazine.
"Our set. Have you seen the list?" I inquire.
"Yeah, I looked before. What about Skylar Josh and Jake?" She looked puzzled. I have no idea why. All they need to do is read a few words on a page.
"What about them?"
"Well, Jakes not around much, and well Josh & Skylar are a bit off.." She trails off.
"What are you saying?"
"What if they quit? Like today.. Or tomorrow.. What if this band goes downhill, Chloe?! This is my life.. Honestly I'd have nothing if this band stopped." She blurts this out so rapidly I barely have time to take it in. What does she mean? Josh and Skylar are fine - I'd only be worrying about Jake to be honest. I mean he's more likely to quit than Skylar or Josh because he has something to go back to.
I sit next to a now sobbing Flame and comfort her.
"Flame, honey nothings going to happen. Okay? We're fine - plus we're getting more successful so I doubt any of them would leave now. Not when the party's only just getting started." I chuckle a bit.
"I'm sorry.." She sputters.
"Don't be." I hug her more.
Seriously what's gotten into everyone?
