The next day, they all packed up and flew to New York to begin the first leg of their tour.Amelia was relieved that Justin had to go back home and out of her life, for now.
She got settled in the hotel and went down to the gift shop that was in the hotel. She wanted to take advantage of the two days she had off by relaxing in the pool and work on her tan. Her and Joe hadn't talked since LA and the tension between them was growing every day. He was constantly second guessing her ideas, giving her his ideas, and they were constantly butting heads. Ali picked up on this and decided to let Amelia have a couple of days off to diffuse the situation.
She was looking through the rack of swimsuits when she felt a pair of arms slip around her waist. Startled she turned around to see Justin. "Hey, what are you doing here?"
He smiled and took off his sunglasses and kissed her. "What? Not happy to see me?"
She shook her head. "No, I am, I'm just surprised to see you."
"I got home and realized I missed you. I took a week off of work, no big deal." He noticed she was holding up a bikini and put it back on the rack. "Not with your figure. Here, this is better." He said as he handed her a black one piece.
Amelia chocked back the tears as she took the swimsuit from Justin.
"Thanks."
This was always like him, to put her down. She wasn't fat and she wasn't skinny either. She was told she had the perfect figure, curves in all the right places, but Justin didn't see it that way. He wanted her skinnier and was constantly riding her about loosing weight.
She quickly paid for the swim suit and was in the midst of going back to her room, with Justin in tow, who she didn't want to be here at all. She turned to Justin. "Why don't you go and wait for me in the pool? I have to get ready."
He kissed her. "Sure."
Amelia ran up to her room. After getting off on the elevator, she fumbled in her purse for her keys, not watching where she was going and bumped into someone, spilling the contents of it on the floor. "Oh, I'm sorry!"
"Hey it's OK. I wasn't paying attention." Joe looked up to see Amelia. "Oh."
She looked down and began picking up a tube of lipstick, foundation, and her keys. "Joe, you don't have to help me."
He knelt down and handed her a tube of lipstick. "I was actually looking for you."
"You were?" She said as she stood up. "Why?"
He noticed the shopping bag in her hand. "Wanted to see if you would like to hang out at the pool. The guys and Ali are down there."
Amelia looked at him, very tempted but remembered Justin was out there looking for her. "Thank but I'll pass."
Joe nodded. "OK fair enough. I was just trying bury the hatchet."
The elevator dinged and Amelia turned to see Justin walking down the hall.
