Alyssas POV
*1 month later*

It had been hard without Andy. I missed him so much. Every morning I would stare at the ring on my left hand. I wondered how much it cost. It looked like a real wedding ring, but it was only an engagement ring. He really did love me. I wished I would have noticed before all the fighting, all the drama, everything. Bu that was all in the past. We were moving on together, as a couple. I couldn't get enough of that sound.

A couple.

An engaged couple.

I smiled and got up. Andy said he would Skype me. He had been calling for the last few days instead since he hadn't had a good enough connection. He said they were staying in a hotel tonight though. I was happy that I could see his face again.

I cut the fruit as Jenessa sang along to Teenagers by My Chemical Romance. Good thing Sierra put on the clean version.

They say teenagers scare
The living **** out of me
They could care less
As long as someone will bleed

I giggled as they sang Sierra, Chloe, and Jenessa sang their lungs out. I put two strawberries, two cherries, five raspberries, and ten blueberries on everyone's plate. The fluffy pancakes looked even more delicious as I did. I licked my lips, ready to savor the flavor of the food. I set each plate down at the table with napkins and silverware.

My phone rang, playing The Morticians Daughter. I smiled and ran into the kitchen. I picked up my phone and immediately answered.

"Hey babe" I smiled widely, impatiently waiting to hear his deep, soothing voice.

"Hey" Andys voice was sad.

"What's wrong?" I asked, biting on my lip.

"I can't Skype tonight. In fact I can't call after this. I'm sorry" He apologized.

"It's okay" I lied. It wasn't okay. I was looking forward to Skyping him that night. I missed seeing his face.

"I'm so sorry. I will try and Skype you as soon as possible. I love you so much" He stated.

"I love you too" I put my hand over the speaker I talk into and let out a sigh so he wouldn't hear.

"Bye" He ended the call after I also said "bye".

I slammed my phone down angrily but took deep breaths to calm myself down. I put my hand over my mouth and let out a sob. Tears streaked my cheeks as I quietly sobbed to myself.

What is so important that he can video call his family?

I took another deep breath and wiped my tears. I grabbed the syrup and walked back into the dining room.

"Breakfast is ready" I yelled and quickly heard footsteps to come eat..

Andys POV

We entered the hotel. All of the guys made me go and drink with them that night. I tried to tell them "no" but I finally caved in. I felt bad about the entire thing. I really wanted to see Alyssa and Jenessa. I wanted to watch how Jenessas eyes lit up with excitement as I appeared onto the screen. I wanted to watch how Alyssas eyes filled with longing as I said "hello". I wanted to cry as we hung up. But there was no turning back. I was going to party with the guys. Ugh!

"Let's go pump shit up!" Jake threw his keys up in the air and caught them with a smirk.

I heard a whose bunch of "Woop, woop!" and "Fuck yeah". I just faked a smile and exited the door.

We entered the car, blasting some country music Ashley picked out. Jinxx wanted to put on classical music but we all just replied with a "HELL NO!". So Ashley won with country music. I blocked it all out since I wasn't really a fan of it. I just thought about Alyssa the entire way.

Her hair flowed down her sides perfectly. Her eyes would grow wide when she got sassy. She blushed so easily. She smiled into a kiss. Just everything about her. She was just so... perfect.

The car jerked and I heard a loud honk. CC was pissed off at some dude who cut him off. I just rolled my eyes and realized we were around the corner. I sighed, trying to get Alyssa out of my head. It was no use. She was always there no matter what. Always had been and always was going to be.

CC parked the car. We all hopped out. I was last of course. Since it was a Monday night, pretty much no one was at the bar. We got in shortly and everyone went to the bar immediately. I followed, not really caring. More country music blasted in the background. I rolled my eyes and ordered myself a beer.

A Packers game was on so I decided to watch. I didn't realize how much I was drinking. By half time, I had already had seven beers. My throat burned. My head hurt. I was dizzy. I felt a hand go over mine. I looked up to see a girl with shirt blonde hair. By short I mean very short. Her eyes were a bluish-green color. She was also skinny. She had a variety of tattoos. I somewhat recognized her, but couldn't make out who she was.

"Let's get out of here" She teased me by rubbing near my area. I nodded.

She pulled me out of the door. I left all of the guys behind as she continued to lead me. I felt a pang in my chest. I felt like I shouldn't have been doing that. But why? I guess I was going to find out later....

****

My head was throbbing as my back ached. I held my head with a groan. I felt a body against me.

"Good morning babe" Her raspy voice tickled my ear.

"What?" I struggled to flutter my eyes open.

But when I did, I saw the last person I ever wanted to see.

Juliet.
