-Time skip to day of MAX concert-
I'm getting ready for the concert when I hear a knock at the door.
"Who is it?" I say in a loud voice."Housekeeping!" a voice that seems overexaggerated. Like a man's voice. I laugh and walk to open the door.
"Hey babe, damn you look gorgeous, as always, ready?" he pulls me into an embrace.
"Yeah let me just grab my phone and vlog camera." I rush over to my bed and grab everything I need.
"Lets go get the others." I take his hand.
"Do we have too?" he whines, "I mean, it was only supposed to be for us."
"Yes, come on, the others like MAX too, and they bought the tickets." I walk by him and kiss him. "Lets go babe."
"I love it when you call me that." We go out and yell for the others to come out.
Once everyone is in the van, we drive over to the venue. On the way, I try to film a vlog but im disrupted every time by Anthony. He kept on kissing my neck, in which that left a hickey. Hes been getting more sexual everyday were together. Sometimes im comfortable with it, but most of the times im not. I mean this is still a first for everything for me. I don't mind kissing on the lips and on the neck, but other than that, I tell him to stop. I think im just nervous for everything.
While Anthony is kissing my neck, Kade and Nathan both stare at us. I look back at them and smile empathetically. Ever since Kade told me how he felt about the whole situation, things have been different. We aren't as close as we were. I have to ask Chad or someone else to take my pictures or help me vlog. Another thing is, Ive been having dreams about him. Kade. I mean, not weird dreams. Just dreams like whatever would happen if he and I dated instead of Anthony and I. The weird thing is, the endings is always perfect. It sometimes makes me wonder about Anthony's and I current relationship.
"Were here!!" Anthony yells, which snaps me out of my thoughts. As soon as I hop out of the van, Kade pulls me behind the van away from everyone else.
"You okay?" he asks.
"Yeah? Why wouldn't I be?" I ask.
"Because you were staring at me for the longest time in the car ride. What were you thinking?" he asks.
"Why did you have to tell me how you felt. Im all confused now." I said
"confused about what?" he said.
"About my feelings for Anthony," I whisper. Just then Anthony walks right past us. He looks hurt. He heard everything.
After we all got check in, we went to go sit in our seats. Jake rushed by me and put his arm around me and whispered, "Is Anthony alright? He seems sadder from when we were in the van." I let go of his embrace and run. I run into the nearest bathroom and go into the stall. After a few minutes of bawling my eyes out. I hear someone come in. Nathan.
"Brooke? You okay in there?" he asks.
"Your not supposed to be in here. Leave me alone," I snap.
"Actually, your not supposed to be in here. It's the men's restroom." He says. "Come out here."
I slowly walk out of the stall and there he is arms wide open. "Oh Nathan, I screwed up big time." I say crying into his chest.
"Come let's go outside before someone comes in." he says. Since the concert didn't start for another 30 minutes, Nathan took me outside to get some fresh air. "Whats wrong? Did something happen between you and Anthony?"
"A few days ago your brother told me something, and it basically has been bothering me. And I guess he noticed, so he asked me about it and I said that I wasn't really sure how I felt about Tony, and Tony heard the whole thing." I say in between tears.
"What did my brother tell you?" he said.
"That he would rather want me to be with either you or him. And that everyone else agrees," I say.
"Shit. Im going to kill him." He whispers under his breath
"Do you feel the same way? Please be honest with me?" I say. I look up at him for what seems like hours.
"Yes." He finally says. Just then my phone rings. It's a text from Kade.
Uncle Kade: Concert's starting. Where r u and Nathan?
Brooke: Coming.
"We better go, concerts starting." I say. We walk back into the venue, and I never let go of his embrace.
We get back into the concert room and I sit next to Anthony.
"Hey?" I said.
"Where were you?" he says emotionless.
"Just outside. I needed some air." I say.
"Or was it so that you can make out with one of the Speiser brothers?" he says angrily. "All this time, I did nothing but love you, but you didn't even know how you felt about me."
"Babe, it wasn't like that. I just-" I stammer.
"Don't call me babe." He interrupts. Just then the concert started. It was anything but enjoyable. Then the song "Lights Down Low" came on. The same song that Anthony and I jammed out to together. I felt him looking at me, but when I looked at him he turned away. I saw a tear roll down his face.
I couldn't stay for the rest of the concert. I was hurt. I walked out of the venue and waited by the team 10 van.
When everyone came out, they were all happy. I just wanted to leave so as soon as the door opened I rushed into the back seating. When everyone got into the van, they all looked at me.
"What happened? Are you okay? Where did you go?" Erika asks.
"I just wasn't feeling it so I walked out. " I said not looking up.
"Awww, wasn't this supposed to be a special date for you and Tony?" Tessa said. I don't answer. Instead I just look to the ground with tears forming in my eyes.
