The Note ↠ Daniel Seavey

Chapter 58

June 2, 2017

"Kourtney, wake up. We have to take the guys to the airport," Nadia said, walking into my room.
"If we don't get up, does that mean they don't have to go?" I asked, sitting up in my bed.
"Sadly, no. We're just gonna have to have a few lonely months before you join them on tour. Then I'm going to be all alone." Nadia sat down on the bed, her head in her hands.
"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked, getting off my bed and sitting in front of her. Nadia would let things eat her up on the inside if it meant being happy on the outside, and it looked like she was breaking.
"Not important right now. Get some clothes on then meet me downstairs. We leave in an hour."
"Okay." I stood up and Nadia went downstairs to the kitchen.
I went over to my closet and pulled out a white cropped sweatshirt and some black shorts, along with some black Nikes. I changed into my clothes before putting my hair up into a bun and putting on some concealer, mascara, and lip balm. I went downstairs and saw Nadia waiting for me by the door.
"Ready?"
"Yeah, let's go."
-
"Do you guys have to leave?" I asked, hugging Daniel for the tenth time.
"Yes, we have to leave. Sorry, K."
"No, don't be sorry. You guys are out living your dream lives. You get to do what you love in front of thousands of people. Why should you be sorry?"
"Cause I have to leave you behind for six months," Daniel said, hugging me tighter.
"I know."
"Flight 287 is now boarding at Gate A."
I looked at Daniel and gave him one last squeeze. He kissed my head and let go. I looked over and saw Nadia hugging the other boys, lingering a little longer on Jonah. I gave the other boys hugs. They left to go board their plane and me and Nadia went back out to our car.
"So, do you want to tell me what happened now, or wait until we get home?" I asked, looking at Nadia. I started the car and pulled out, heading down the road.
"Can we get some coffee? At that little coffee shop down the road right here?" Nadia asked, pointing to a small cafe that was at the street corner.
"Yeah."
-
"Now, will you please tell me what's up?" I asked. I handed Nadia her coffee before sitting down in front of her.
"Me and Brody broke up." She looked down at the table, fidgeting with her hands.
"What?"
"Yeah. We decided it was best. With him traveling a lot for family, we can't see each other often. And it's hard to keep in touch cause he is always busy. It just wasn't working out."
"Are you sure that's it?" I knew there was something else, I just had to push it a little.
"I like someone else."
"Who?"
"I can't. It might make it awkward between us. Besides, he probably doesn't like me back," she said, taking a drink of her coffee.
"Who. I promise I won't tell."
She looked up at me for a second before mumbling something.
"What?"
"Jonah," she said, a little louder.
"Our Jonah?" I asked.
"Our Jonah," she confirmed. She gave me the 'I told you so' look.
"I'm sure he likes you too."
"As a friend."
"And maybe as more."
"That's a huge maybe."
I started to say something before she cut me off.
"And please, don't try to get us together. I don't need him knowing that I like him, it would be awkward."
"Fine." Oh, but fine doesn't mean fine, I thought to myself.
We finished our coffee before going back home. I went upstairs and laid down on my bed, checking my notifications.

kourtneyofficial_: Can I tell you something? Nobody can find out, Nadia will kill me.
theauthor: Who am I going to tell😂
kourtneyofficial_: true. Okay, Nadia likes Jonah.
theauthor: really?
kourtneyofficial_: yes. Her and Brody broke up because it wasn't working out with him traveling and all, and then she said that she liked someone else, and I asked who, and she said it was Jonah. But she is convinced that he doesn't like her. But she really likes him, I can tell, bff instincts. I need to get them together.
theauthor: wow.
kourtneyofficial_: ikr. But she told me not to interfere.
theauthor: you're gonna interfere aren't you?
kourtneyofficial_: Oh, yeah, totally.
