American Idol Celebrity Guest Judge

Chapter 8: Awkward Trip

Joe and I dressed and headed downstairs to see Denise, Kevin Sr, Abby, Nick, Kevin, Dani and the girls all downstairs. "Um nice hair." Kevin teased him making me look at him. His hair was still all messed up and sticking up everywhere as he smoothed it down he blushed. I grabbed Abby and Dani over to the corner where the girls giggled as I told them what happened upstairs earlier. "Wow Vi." Abby said. "It was that incredible huh?" Dani teased elbowing me. "Yeah it was, I am still in shock." I said looking over at Joe who winked at me from across the room. "We should go out for a girls day." Dani told us. "Yeah that would be fun, go shopping and and have lunch." I replied. We planned to go out to shop for a little bit, us girls while the guys did whatever. I threw my hair up into a twisty bun before grabbing my purse and telling Joe what I was doing. "You girls have fun." Joe said to me giving me a kiss and some money. "We will babe." I replied back following the girls out the door. "So Joe told me he loved me last night." I told Dani and Abby down the road. "Aw really?" Abby asked. "Yeah, it was a surprise you know considering what we were doing." I replied. "Do you think he didn't mean it for real?" Dani asked. "I don't know, everything builds up when your well you know." I replied back."That's true, I would just talk to him about it." Abby replied back. We got into a store and went our seperate ways looking at clothes when I noticed a voice that sounded odddly familar. I looked up and there was Sophie looking at clothes and talking on the phone, when she saw me looking she hung up and started my way. I didn't know if I should a) run away, b) ignore her or c) be nice and hope she goes away. I choose option C because my legs felt like jelly making me not able to move. "Hey you must be Violet?" She asked coming up right next to me. "Uh yeah and your Sophie right?" I responded. "Yeah, I have been meaning to talk to you." She replied. "About what?" I asked. "What happened between Joe and I, I don't know if he told you everything." She replied back. "No all he said was the fighting got too much and he was unhappy." I replied. "He's being modest, but that is part of it." She replied before launching into the story. The reasons they broke up was because Joe wanted to rush into things like marriage and kids while Sophie wantedto focus on her career considering shes only 21. "My career came first before anything, I'm going to be in a new movie and of course filming the last season of Game of Thrones but Joe was ready to settle down." She told me. "Oh wow." I replied. "Yeah I'm only 21, I'm not ready to have kids or marry yet. I wanted to wait until all the filming was over but he didn't." She replied. "Wow." was all I could get out since this was already awkward. "Yeah I know, after he took the dogs and left I deleted everything and moved on. I knew it wasn't worth fighting for." She continued. "Why do you say that?" I asked. "We were just so unhappy, we tried everything to fix it but we couldnt." She answered. "Oh okay I see." I responded. "I moved on with filming and met someone knew who I am extremely happy with." She said smiling at me. "That's good, I am happy with Joe." I replied. "I can tell, you guys are cute." She replied back. "Thanks so are you and Zach." I said. We talked for a few more minutes before she had to go, she gave me her number to text her sometime. I stood there after she left stunned at what just happened, when Dani and Abby found me. "Hey are you okay?" Dani asked me. "No you will not believe who I just talked to." I replied. "Who was it?" Abby asked. "Sophie." I replied telling them everything. "Wow that's wierd." Abby said. "I know but atleast she was nice." Dani replied. "Too nice." I replied back. We shopped together finding some clothes and went to eat before heading home. "Hey girls please do not say anything to Joe, I would like to tell him." I said to them. "You got it." They replied back. We headed into the house where everyone but Joe was in the living room. "Where's Joe?" I asked Denise. "In his room." She replied. I headed upstairs and there was Joe laying on the bed with the tv on. "Babe what's wrong?" I asked. "I know Sophie talked to you." He replied. "Dang paparazzis I didn't even know they were there." I replied. I explained everything to him which calmed him down alot, and he was better. "Sorry it's wierd." He replied. "I know, it was so awkward for me." I replied back leaning in to kiss him. "Mm that makes me alot better." He replied. "I know something that will make it alot better..." I replied smirking. Once he realized what I was talking about, he smirked and pulled me towards him.
