-chapter8-

"Hey guys, guess what happened!"

Miles and I stood in the entrance on the tour bus. I - desperately clutching my bags as my arms began to give in under the weight, whilst miles stood with two bags in each hand and seemed completely unphased.

"Ur.." Miles stuttered. Confused by the sight of the arctic monkeys sat in what we expected to be an empty tour bus.

"Your manager called" Matt began.

"The vocalist of the other band has fallen ill and asked us to step in!"

Their faces were all lit up and I suppose they expected us to be equally as thrilled. whether miles was excited about the news; I didn't know.. All I knew was that I certainly was not.

"Ahh..great" miles mustered up a half-smile.

I could feel my jaw hanging open. I'd hoped so badly that this would be the break that would let me move on from alex, but as I saw him slumped in the leather chair, grinning cheekily at me; I knew I was wrong.

"And we've sorted the sleeping arrangements. Miles and your boys are going in a separate bus, we'll be in here and rose - you're in the back room" Jamie informed, getting up and offering to take my bags.

"I've got it!" Alex interupted, shoving Jamie out the way as he threw himself towards me, grabbing the two bags I held in each hand.

"This way" alex instructed, leading the way to the small room at the back of the tour bus, I followed him reluctantly.

"Here we are!" Alex said enthusiastically as he opened the door to the small room which had been labelled as mine. There wasn't much to it; a small single bed and a chest of draws to put my clothes in was what made up the room.. I was just glad I wasn't in a bed in the aisle like the boys were.

"Thanks" I mumbled, taking my bags out of Alex's grasp and throwing them onto the bed carelessly.

There was an awkward silence filling the air and glances gazed over nothing in particular, I did my best to dodge the eye contact that would spark an unwanted conversation.

He didn't know that I knew what he had said about me.. all he knew was that I hadn't been texting him back.

As Alex made no sign of leaving, I began to unpack my bags to avoid anymore tension building.

"So.." Alex began nervously, I carried on putting my clothes into the chest of drawers that Alex was leant on.

"You haven't been replying to my calls or texts?" He posed a questioned that sounded much more like a statement, which I took advantage of and replied rather bluntly and rhetorically: "yeah?"

"Why is that?" He queried. It was obvious that he didn't know that miles had told me about their conversation and I almost felt sorry for him.. almost.

I toyed with the idea of creating a dramatic response, reducing him to sheer embarrassment as I screamed in his face over his misogynistic comments.

I chuckled to myself at the prospect of filling him with guilt as payback for his disrespect for me. Instead, I settled on ignoring him..

"Dunno, been busy I guess"

My cold attitude had definitely puzzled him. I arose from my knelt position in front of the chest of draws and met eye to eye with him. My heart flustered unwillingly as his puppy eyes locked with mine. he looked at me so lovingly towards me and I found it so hard to believe that something so horrid could come out of a mouth that produces such inspiring lyrics. But it was all just a mask.. His kindness and affection for me wasn't real, he cared far to much about his reputation for that. keeping up that rebellious image wasn't a problem for a rock and roll icon that was caught up in the world that he'd been hypnotised into thinking revolved around him. I was always going to be a bird he was chasing until he got a shag..

His piercing eyes fell to my lips. He pushed his quiff out of his eye and I felt his hand sit gently on my hip.

"No, don't let him" I thought to myself. resisting the urge to give him what he wanted. He had me in trance that I was desperate to escape from, he captured my emotions and played with him.. I cursed to myself as I felt his soft lips meet mine, this was certainly not what I had in mind..

"Um"

I pushed myself away from Alex.

Miles.. Thank god.
