Well, here we are the start of a new tour. We started in Europe this time as we haven't been here for a while. The first night was at the O2 arena in London. I was getting all panicky and anxious about it, I actually have been all day since I got up. I disappeared from the others and went to find somewhere quiet and I can hide away basically I ran away again. I really didn't want to be here. I thought I was ready for this. I lied to myself. The cruise went better than the last one. But I had problems then as well. I had several panic attacks on the cruise. I missed parts of the cruise like the sail away party. I made myself sick because of my worrying. 

I was sitting there minding my own business when I heard footsteps near me. I pulled my cap further over my eyes hoping the person would go away. 

"Jon go away. I am not in the mood for a lecture about running off". 

"Last time I checked I wasn't male" replied a voice. I looked up and there was a girl standing there. Lucky I had my sunglasses on so hoping she didn't recognise me.
"Are you alright?" She replied, "It is not a very good place to be sitting alone".

"I am fine. Being here helps me to think and relax" I replied. 

"Well if you're fine. How about a coffee". I could go for one. She offered her hand to help me up. As our hands touched for a brief moment it sent electricity through both our hands. We both jumped back at the same time. What was that? but we only just met each other. After a brief pause then we walk to Starbucks by the entrance, I hope I don't get spotted with how I am feeling I don't want to deal with it. I order a vanilla latte luckily the girl behind the counter didn't recognise me or she kept it quiet. The girl I am with orders her drink. As we find a table to sit, my phone goes off. I look at the caller id. Hoping and praying it isn't. Oh great, it's Jon. I let it ring and ring. The phone stops ringing and soon starts up again. 

"Did you want to get that?".

"Nah it's only my brother". I pressed ignore as the phone starts up again.       

"It might be important". You don't know the half of it. 

"So. What's your name?" I replied sipping on my latte. It was crowded in here. And my nerves and fear are reaching sky high. But when I look into her blue eyes it calms me somehow. What is wrong with me?. 

"Caitlin" she replied, " What's yours?".

"Jay". I'm not going to use my name just in case. Because it's our concert tonight. She could be a fan. But there is something here. Really what is wrong with me.

"So Jay where are you from? Because you don't sound like you come from around here". 

"America". 

"Where about? America is a big country". 

She is getting pushy. My phone rings again. I push ignore again. 

"Near New York". That will throw her off a bit. "What are you doing here? Out with friends". 

"Here for the concert tonight and not really. They couldn't come tonight". Oh, great a fan but there is something here though.

We chat for a little bit. Well until she looks at her phone realises the time as she pushes her light strawberry blonde hair back behind her ears. She gets up to go. While she isn't looking I had put Jay into her contacts and got her number by ringing mine. Really why??. I mention I have to go too. 

"Can we meet up later?. There is after the party I have been invited too. Would you like to come? I am friends with the band and can also get you better seats near the front for the show". Oh J what are you doing?. She looked at me funny but nodded yes and said thank you. I look at her face and move in closer to her. Before I knew it I was looking at her lips and moving in close. She was looking at mine as she brushes a stray hair away from my eyes. I suddenly realise what is happening and back away especially as her hand was getting near to my scar on my forehead. Really J, you hardly know the girl there you are going to kiss her. She does make me feel different, feel happy. I smile at her as I quickly leave before I get ripped apart by Jon for running away during sound check. I will see her again. I am sure I saw her on the cruise last October. I happily hum a tune walking away. Somehow all of a sudden I feel ready to do this.
