Stupid Andrew. I don't know why he thinks he has any say about what I do. I'm a grown woman, and he had no right.
I told him the truth, and he got mad. I expected him to get mad, but not start acting like a dick who can control me.
I drove through the traffic light, happy that so far almost all have been green.
I was going to this game whether he liked it or not. I would find my own place to stay, find my own way in, and do it all without Andrew.
Fucking asshole.
I thirty minutes left until I was in the Bronx, so I called Mookie. They were most likely on the way to the hotel by now. I left earlier than them so I knew we'd show up around the same time.
"Hey, Livi. What's up?" He answered.
"Are you around Andrew?" I asked. "Uh, no. Why?" He asked.
"Have you talked to him?" I asked. "No. Again, why?" He repeated.
I sighed and turned down a street. "I'm almost at the hotel. Can I stay with you for the next couple nights?" I asked.
"Liv, what's going on?" He asked. "Andrew and I got into a fight. I can explain there, but only if I can stay with you and Andrew can't know," I told him and he sighed.
"All right, fine. I'll text you when the coast is clear and I'll come down to get you," he told me.
"Thanks, Mookie," I said.
He made a noise and I smiled. "You're lucky I love you," he told me. "I know I am. I love you, too," I told him and he hung up.
A few minutes after I hung up, my phone rang again. I pressed the answer button without looking. It was either Aaron, my parents, or one of the guys.
"Hey-o," I answered. "Hey, are you here?" Aaron asked.
"Uh, I'm close," I answered.
"I thought you'd be here by now," he said and I smiled. "Drew and I got in a fight last night. I drove here on my own," I told him.
"You drove almost four hours on your own because you fought with Andrew?" He asked.
I sighed and stopped at a light. "I told him about how I've been talking to you and he got mad and tried to tell me I wasn't leaving his sight the next three days and I got mad and told him he can't control me, so he told me that I wasn't coming," I told him.
He hummed and I tapped my fingers on the steering wheel. "So you drove to come to see me?" He asked and I grinned.
"Shut up, I came to support all the guys other than Drew," I said.
"Uh huh. I call bullshit. You're really just coming for our date," he said in a teasing voice. "I'm gonna hang up on you if you don't shut up," I told him and he laughed.
"Do you need somewhere to stay? I have a guest room," he offered.
I smiled a little and parked in the hotel parking lot. "I'm good, actually. Mookie is gonna sneak me into the hotel and let me stay in his room," I told him.
"Okay. Call me when you're on your way to the stadium," he told me.
"Will do," I told him, hanging up.
I texted Mookie, telling him I was out here.
Moooo: Coast is clear. Come to the front.
omw.I got out of the car, grabbing my suitcase and jogging to the front. Mookie was standing there, looking around the lobby.
"Hey. Thank you for helping," I told him and he gave me a look.
