Another month pasted by and and I started to heal. I felt a little better but still so depressed. I started to walk around the house and spent less time in my room. Callie was there for me the whole time, helping me heal and to get out more. Axel told me that he couldn't wait any longer for me to come back tour. He gave me his number and left. He also said as soon tour was done he come back and visit me. He both kept in contact and never seem to lose it. Every morning I would wake up with a text from him, telling good morning and how I was feeling. Every time I would text him back he immediately replied. And then have a full on conversation from there. He told me I'll once I felt better I'm more than welcomed to come back on tour. Even though he said I still felt that I wouldn't be able to join. When things like this happen it's hard to recover from something so traumatic. Axel tried to keep me more confort than ever. Every call, every text. It's like he didn't want me to leave his side. Ever since the loss of my sister Axel began to open up to me and which made me start to open up a little. Our conversations became less awkward. And less short. This made our relationship grow. And sooner or later we start to become close. We talked about things that we would normally not talk about. Everytime he texts me it seems like everything that hurts fades away. I no longer feel anymore pain. But once he goes I go back into the same dark place. Callie started to make me come outside of the house more. Even though it was tough. Today Callie wants me to go out and party at her brother's friend's house. I have no idea who he was, but I knew I didn't want to go. And I was have a bad day with my mind today. But for my sake I tried even though I didn't like parties. They were never thing but I just went along with it because why not. We had to travel two hours away since it was in Maryland. Which I think it's ridiculous but whatever. "Katherine's are you ready. We got to go!" Callie said calling out for me. "Yeah i'm ready let's go!" I wore a black floral dress with fishnet tights and black leather booties. Callie whore a white strapless crop top with a lavender mini skirt and white pumps. "Ok let's go and party!" Callie said with excitement. I give her a disgusted look at her. "Look i know you don't party much like me but I'm leaveing you here alone ok." I roled my eyes and just walked out the door. Once we got to the party. It already looked crazy. The music was loud and I could tell it was overwhelming. I shot Axel a text hopeing he would respond back. We got out and head in it was crowded and had the strong smell of beer, and cigarette smoke. Callie partied the whole time while I text Axel in the very back of the commotion. Then some random guy came up to me. "Hey, cutie what are you doing back here!" He was clearly intoxicated. The smell of his breath was strong and smell of beer. I turn my head. "Hey aren't you going to answer?" He said leaning in close. I was creeped out and wanted to just go but how? "Um, no-" he took my hand and pulled me close to him. At this point I had to defend myself. "Don't touch me!" I harshly push him back. "Baby, you don't to do that? Come on now." He apporches and wraps his arms around my waist. And lifts me up. "Stop put me down!" He punched him in the face and he dropped me right then and there. I grabbed anything I could to defend myself from this drunk. I grab a vase and broke it over his head. I ran off outside to get out of there. I sat on the front porch feeling sick and wanting to cry. "Katherine..." I looked up to see, Axel slowly apporching me. Sighing in relief I ran up to him and practically jumping his arms. "What happened?" He asked me. He places me back on my feet. "I just don't want to be here. Let's go." We walked and hopped into his car, and drove off. The car ride was pretty silent and awkward. I didn't know what to say nor what to do. "So, what made want to leave that party?" He asked. Immediately I blushed for some reason. "I...I don't like parties much. I guess." He made a suspicious look at me. Like if were to be hideing something. I breath in and out trying to calm down. Sooner or later we arrived at the hotel. He took me into his hotel room. We check in and that was that. "Make yourself at home! But I gotta shower and change into something more comfortable, I hope you don't mind." He asked. "No it's ok go ahead." I tell him. He goes and hops into the shower and does his thing. I took off my shoes and went to on my phone for a while. About thrity minutes later the shower turned off. I was texting Callie telling where i was at so that way she doesn't freak out. Axel comes out in a slightly baggy t-shirt and grey joggers. I started getting butterflies in my stomach. My face felt like it was on fire. It's just that every single time this guy's face I can't help but blush and get butterfly's in my stomach. "What's wrong Katherine are you ok?" He asks me. "Uh-uh. Ummm nothing I'm fine, I was just...staring of into space." I said nervously. "In my direction?" He asks me. My stomach dropped. Crap I really messed up. I have to think of something FAST and nothing STUPID. "Uhm I was looking at the painting behind you." I said. "Yeah because the painting is totally right at me." He said sarcastically. "Wow you know you really just want to admit that I was "checking" you out. Wow just so sad." I jokingly said. "Haha so funny Katherine. I was jokeing!" He said laughing. "But I do look good, and not sloppy looking I don't want to make a bad impression." He asked me. "No you look fine. And very comfortable. While I'm over here wearing something not so comfy." I said to him. "Well then..." he disappears into another room for a few seconds. "Here put this on." He said tossing a black t-shirt to me. "Oh, this? I didn't really mean I wanted to change." I said anxiously. "It's fine really. And trust me you'll feel nice and comfy." I glare at the t-shirt in my hands. Again feeling that butterfly feeling in my stomach. Half of my body was saying just put it on and you'll be fine. And another half was saying don't do it it's weird. "Um, you know I'm fine really. Here take it back I was joking anyways." I said handing the shirt to him. "No it's ok, besides you look very unconfortble. It's fine." He said to me. "But, wouldn't it have been weird. You know me putting you shirt on. Isn't that what couples do?" I tell him. "Yeah, but friends do it too. You know you don't have to be all weird about it. Because at the end of the day you're comfy." He said to me. "Well what the bottoms?" I tell him. "Just wear it like a dress." He said to me. "Fine, I'll put it on." I quicky toss the shirt on in the bathroom. And walk out. "See now was that too hard?" I rolled my eyes and walk pass him. No it wasn't it's lkke was putting on a confusing strappy dress." I said sarcastically. We both laugh and plopped on the couch and watching a random TV show.
