Part 109

Shawn:

When we arrived at the hotel everyone split up and me and Maya went to our room.

I was so tired that at some times I was stumbling over my own feet and on some of the stairs that we needed to take up to our room. "I'm so tired Maya." I groaned, feeling my eyes only getting heavier by the second.

"It'll only take you a few minutes darling. Go shower, get dressed and get in bed." She said and I walked to the bathroom, making it really quick so I can get in bed.

Washing up, brushing teeth and getting dressed before going out.

"Maya I- oh." I smiled, seeing her already asleep on the bed. The covers only pulled up halfway to her shoulders.

I quickly tied a knot on my sweatpants and crawled in behind her, pulling the covers up to our necks and wrapping my arm around her waist, holding her close to me.

I'm so happy she's on tour with me, and so happy my sister, Lauren and Brian are here as well. Matt have been here for a few weeks now and we had a lot of fun. But he's again, leaving tomorrow. At least Maya and Brian will stay a while. Lauren and my sister will also be going back with Matt, which is sad because then I won't see them again for in about a few months.

But that's the tour life, and everyone knows it.

It's hard sometimes to keep away from my family, friends and most especially my wife. But luckily surprises like these make it all worthwhile.

"Goodnight baby girl. I love you so much." I whispered to her, even though she might not have heard it. I kissed her cheek before turning the light out and drifting off to sleep the minute my head hit the pillow.

🌸6 days later🌸

Aaliyah, Lauren and Matt are now all gone.

It's just me and Maya, and Brian of course but he's more in the stores and out on the streets than with us back at the hotel or venue.

Sometimes he even goes to the gym with my bodyguard. Weird huh. But it's a friend thing, I guess.

We were at the arena getting ready for sound check and afterwards we'd go get lunch at a place just a few streets away from here. "Ready for some food?" Brian asked as Maya and I walked up to him.

My arm wrapped around her shoulder and she holding on to my waist. "Sure." I smiled. We walked out to the car and took the drive to the restaurant.

Once we arrived, we got out, took a few pictures with fans that were on the streets and eventually got inside. Maya however walking in while we were busy outside. I don't know what's up with her but she's been acting really weird.

"Hey. Are you okay?" I asked, taking my seat next to her. She just nodded, not even making eye contact. "Maya?" I whispered. "I'm okay Shawn!" She snapped, almost sounding angrily.

And one lesson my mom taught me is to never bother an angry woman. So I left her alone, turning back in my seat and I saw Brian looking at me with big eyes.

She sat in silence while Brian and I talked. Only till the waitress came and wanted to take our orders. "Hello my name is Michelle and I'll be your waitress for today. What can I get for you guys?" She asked and Brian gave her his order before she looked at me.

"And... you?" She smiled, playing with the back of her pen in her mouth as she looked at me. It's sick if you try to flirt with a married man. "I'll have the big-man-sandwich and for my wife here you can get her the chicken-mayo-and-bacon sandwich." I said and handed her our menus. "Oh, uhm. Sure." She said, her smile fading at the mention of Maya as my wife.

"Ooh she got burned. The wife-burn." Brian laughed and I saw Maya just rolling her eyes. "What? She was flirting with me. I had to call her off." I said to her as she rested her elbows on the table. "I could've ordered for myself you know." She scoffed.

I thought I was doing her a favor by ordering her favorite for her. Looks like it was my mistake, rather than something nice.

"Maya what have I done? Why are you so mad at me?" I asked, completely unsure of what I did to piss her off this bad. "Nothing. Just leave me. I don't feel too well." She said, sounding sad all of a sudden. I took her hand in mine. "What's the matter?" I asked and she looked at me.

"I don't know. I feel like screaming and crying and punching Brian and everything is just, I don't know." She sighed, resting her head in her hands. "Ooh you better run Brian. She wants to punch you." I said and heard her chuckling in her hands.

She took my hand again and pulled me closer to her. "I'm really not feeling well." She said and I took a closer look at her. She is kind of pale and her eyes look tired.

Just then the food arrived and we pulled apart. The waitress handed us our food and then placed Maya's down infront of her. Almost the second she laid eyes on it she jumped up and ran off. "Maya!" I yelled, but she took off to the bathroom.

She must be sick, but why?

"I'll be right back." I said to Brian, getting up from my seat and jogging towards the bathroom. A lady came out and looked weirdly at me. "Hi. Uhm.. is there anyone in the bathroom besides a girl probably throwing up?" I asked and she shook her head. "Great. Thanks." I said and barged into to bathroom.

"Maya. Honey open up." I said, knocking on her door but she didn't reply. So I crawled in under the door. "What are you doing in here?" She asked, brushing her hair behind her ears.

I quickly took it all in my hand, brushing every oiece of hair away from her face. "I'm making sure you're okay." I said and she sat back, resting her back against the door. "What's going on?" I asked, putting my hands on her knees.

"Shawn I really don't feel well." She said, tears pooling up in her eyes.
