I've been going to this club every day for the past 6 days. I met a couple new friends. We would play a bunch of games and dance there. We just have fun. There was one guy named Brad and him and I were close. I would go to the club to see him and we would always end up mouth to mouth.
My friends were drinking. Of course, I'm a good noodle and didn't drink any but Brad and the girls were drunk. I was in a game of spin the bottle with a bunch of people and Brad when a familiar face showed up. They grabbed my arm and took me towards the exit, dragging me into a car.
"Why are you here?" I asked while the driver drove off. "To get you. I'll explain when we get to Christina's place" they said and I nodded, enjoying my soda and the pretty night lights of New York. I'm going back to LA in 4 days which means I'm going to be back in the Why Don't We house and finding a different place to stay.
We arrived at Christina's house and went in, I sat on the couch as Christina and them stood in front of me. "What now guys?" I huffed, waiting for them to talk. "You've changed Nancy. What's going on with you? I've been hearing stuff about you and some bitch named Brad" Christina said.
"I don't understand why Jack came" I ignored her question and pointed towards him and he sighed, crossing his arms. "Nancy, I love you and Daniel and I don't like the way you're acting. Please just talk things out with Daniel, he still loves you and wants you back. And Brad sounds like a douche" Jack said.
"No he doesn't. He stopped loving me. And I like Brad" I breathed in. Christina walked out of the room to take a phone call.
"Brad drinks, doesn't he? I saw him next to you when I grabbed you and he was stoned. But Nancy, you love him, and he loves you. You have to try" he explained. I ignored the part about Brad and replied.
"No he doesn't and I don't either, I'm done" my tone was blunt but he wasn't stopping. "You can't just give up!" He yelled.
"Why not?!" I screamed while shooting up from my seat. He backed up and stared at me. "I did this to me! I BROKE his heart and I also broke mine! It's all my fault. I-I miss him, okay? But I don't want to! I still love him a-and I want him back..." I stood there heavily breathing.
He slowly walked up to me and brought me into a tight hug. I cried into his shoulder, not wanting to let go. "I can't Jack. I just can't" I cry and he shushes me, patting my back. "I-I still love him... I want h-him back..." I stuttered.
Jack's phone vibrated and he took it out of his pocket, checking what it was. His mouth gaped open as looked at the instagram post. I looked at his phone to see the post. The caption was my baby and it was Daniel... with another girl. What's even worse was it wasn't just any other girl, it was my sister.
My eyes got glossy and I plopped back on the couch. Jack plopped next to me and wrapped his arm around me as I cried into his shoulder when a buzz went through all of our phones.

{END OF GROUPCHAT}
No one else texted and I was still clinging onto Jack. We sat there for another 10 minutes before Christina came back inside. "People are here to see you" Christina lightly smiled and opened the door.
3 boys piled inside and I smiled. I stood up and hugged Corbyn, then moved onto Zach and hugged him for a bit longer. Then when I got to Jonah, his tall figure felt so comforting that I stood there with my arms wrapped around him really tight.
Tears welled up in my eyes again and a small sobbed escaped my lips. I heard a small "aw" come out from Jonah and the boys before feeling myself getting picked up and plopped onto the lap of someone on the couch, still hugging.
The boys start singing and I smile. "You guys always know how to cheer a girl up. Or well me" I mumble. I hear Zach chuckle and they continue to sing. They sing multiple songs and I just sit there thinking. Thinking about anything.
Is Aurelia meant for Daniel? Were Daniel and I never meant to be? Does Daniel still love me? Do the boys actually care about me?
"Guys," I say softly. They all stop and wait for me to continue. "Do you guys actually care for me? Like nobody forced you to be nice to me and stuff? Including you Christina?" I question and the boys all reply with no's.
"Nancy you're such a close friend of mine. I would never fake an act. Maybe if it was like something funny but if it's something deep down inside you, I would never" Christina said. I nodded in Jonah's shoulder.
They continued to hum and sing as I kept thinking and waiting. Waiting for something to happen. But at that moment, all that happened was me drifting off to sleep from the beautiful voices of 4/5 of Why Don't We.
