Stop Counting Numbers

24.

A week in Paris was great but I missed Brad.

We didn't get to call at all cause the girls were always pulling me somewhere.

When we finish the day, we're already tired so we just get ready for bed then sleep.

Never a time.

But I had fun of course.

We are now getting ready to check out our hotel and leave.

"Too much lineeeee." I groaned as I sat on a couch in the hotel's lobby.

"Wait for me here guys." Ana said as she went in the line.

"Hi! My name is Cody and I just thought you're really cute and it looks like you're leaving today so I was thinking if I could get your number?" A guy came up to me and I looked at the girls.

I looked at the guy, Cody, and smiled politely.

"I'm sorry, I'm already seeing someone." I said politely and he smiled.

"I can tell that your relationship with this guy would be the best." He said before looking at the other girls.

"Well, if you'll excuse me. I'll leave you girls alone." He said before leaving to go to his friends.

"Good girl!" Ana said as she came back making all of us laugh.

...
"There they are!" Kirstie said pointing to 3 guys so we all went to them and the girls hugged their boyfriends.

"Where's Brad?" Luisa asked and the boys looked at him.

He's talking to Tiana.. and then what?

No.

"Hi Tiana, Brad." I told them as I got to them.

"Lea-"

"I saw what I saw. Give me time to digest it. How have you been doing?" I told Brad then Tiana.

"Very good!" She said with a bitter smile.

"I bet!" I said with gritted teeth.

"Leanna! What a coincidence!" I heard someone said and I turned back to see Cody.

"And who are you?" Brad asked him and Cody looked at me and saw my angry face making him frown.

"Is this him?" He asked and I shook my head.

"Apparently not anymore." I said and glared at Brad.

"Me? What?" Brad asked, confused.

"Leanna told me earlier that she couldn't give me her number because she's already seeing someone." Cody said and I just shook my head.

"As I said, not anymore." I said before looking at Brad and Tiana.

"Now, Brad. Do you have something to explain?" I asked him and he pulled me out of our little circle.

"I wanna be honest with you." He said making me much more scared.

"The boys and I went out yesterday. Had a couple of drinks and I swear I didn't know what happened after we coincidentally saw Tiana." He said and I looked at him confused.

"I woke up in her room." He said and I instantly knew I had to go.

"I'm sorry Bradley. But I have somewhere to be. My mum and Justin needs me at home." I said before walking to the group.

"I have to go." I said they all nodded at me as I took my suitcase.

"We'll call you." Luisa said and I nodded.

"Bye girl!" Tiana called out and I looked at her, seeing that she had a fake sweet smile on.

I didn't respond but smiled as fake as I can. Make sure she knows it's fake.

"I'm sorry about this situation." Cody said as he caught up to me.

"It's not your fault." I said and he nodded.

"Get home safe." He said and I just smiled at him and nodded before getting in a cab.

Welcome back Leanna. Chin up, girl.

When I got home, I got in and noticed that nobody is home.

I went to my room and place my suitcase on a corner then layed down my bed and went through social.

le_anna: We miss you on tour Leanna!

justafangirl: Come to Asia!

chloe_vergara: Notice me😭😭😭

vampette.002: Are you and Bradley dating?

sasha96: Like this if you love me.. if you don't, still like this.

love_leanna: I'm making art for you!

lovelyleanna: Don't go on another tour when you're not ready Leanna, take rest.

Asia tour sounds great. Also great for a break, right?

I called Austin and he answered immediately.

"Lea! I was just about to call." He said and I got confused.

"Wait, why? Is something wrong?" I asked.

"Not really."

"Spill the tea, Austin." I said and he chuckled.

"Your boy's got a girlfriend." He yelled and I laughed. So hard.

My manager is like my older brother, if you're asking.

"So anyways, why did you call?" He asked and I looked at my laptop.

"Should we do and Asia tour? I mean we-" I said but got cut off.

"We can't right now. Although, you are invited for Philippines... a few interview and guesting." He said and I nodded.

"When?" I asked and I heard shuffling.

"A day after tomorrow." He said and I sighed.

"Why do you wanna leave so soon? You've just gone back from Paris." He said and I didn't talk.

"Is it Brad? I though you guys were fine?"

"Were fine." I said and he was about to talk when I talked again.

"Stuff just happened and I needed a break." I said.

"Why don't you stay with Jana for a while?" He asked and I groaned.

"We fell apart remember? We fought." I said and he chuckled nervously.

"Riiiiiight.. well, I can't actually help you with that." He said and I sighed.

"Thanks anyway, Austin."

"I also see what I can do for you." He said and we said goodbye before hanging up.

Then I heard the front door.

"Mom!" I yelled before running downstairs.

"Why didn't you call us?" Justin asked as I hugged them both
