"Dude come on, we gotta meet Nova for soundcheck" Nick says
I had been playing fortnite, basically for all day. There's not much to do or much we can do. Management has been pretty tight on us for whatever reason.
"Why so early?" I question
"I'm not sure. Nova just told us to come on" he shrugs
We continue to walk towards the venue in silence. Ever since the tour had started, everything felt as if it had shifted. Not in a bad way though. Claire and Nova had made being on tour anything but interesting. They seemed to light everything up with their child like behavior. Sometimes it seemed like they weren't the adults they claimed to be but nonetheless, we all loved them endlessly. Now nova, I didn't know where to start. I loved her energetic attitude. She seemed to never falter from her happy go lucky attitude. It made me feel happy. Just her presence I guess you could say. I don't know how to explain it. Just a feeling. A really good feeling.
"Yo! Aussie" I hear my name being called
I turn towards the stage seeing Nova giving me a questioning look. She seemed concerned when I had caught her gaze. I give her a smile to reassure her though.
"What's up?" I ask jumping on stage
"Are you okay? You seem spaced out. Distant kind of" she crosses her arms
Well how I couldn't I be? I wouldn't lie, I had taken a liking to Nova. It's just something about her that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside.
"Austin? Dude" nick snaps in front of me
I snap out of it to see both nick and nova giving me questioning looks. I can feel the slight blush creeping up on me as they had both caught me in my dazed and confused state.
"Sorry. I-I didn't get much sleep last night" I apologize rubbing the back of my neck
They both nod, dismissing the whole scene. Nick walks back over to Edwin seeing what he could help with as nova stayed with me, her arms never uncrossing.
"What lee?" I ask
"Are you sure you're okay?"
"Why would I be?"
"I don't know. After I asked you a question the first time, you kind of dazed away from me a bit. You're cheeks had even turned red a bit"
I can feel my heart drop slightly "no biggie. I just thought I had forgot to call my mom. I didn't really get to talk to her yesterday so, had to make sure"
"Whatever you say Aussie"
