What Happens In A Small Town

Chapter Twelve

K E L S E Y

I give my sister a look "Why hell did you drag me side stage to watch the end of B's set?" She smirks "Because I haven't seen him play live in forever, so I figured why not make you come with me"

I see B glance over where Kasey and I are standing and I see a smile slip into his face. Then he turns to address the crowd.

"Alright last song and this one here is a special one tonight this is You Don't Know Her Like I Do and actually the inspiration for this song is here tonight, now I won't name names but she knows who she is"

He shoots one of his heart-stopping grins at me as the music to You Don't Know Her Like I Do starts.

"Hey ole Friend, thanks for callin'
It's good to know somebody cares
Yeah she's gone, but I don't feel like talkin'
It might be just too much to bear
To hear somebody say it stops hurting
Or to hear somebody say she ain't worth it"

I look over at Kase "what the hell is he doing?" She grins at me "I'm not sure my job was just to get ya here and I did my job now the rest is up to him" B, locks eyes with me as he goes into the chorus

"Cause you don't know her like I do
You'll never understand
You don't know what we've been through
That girl's my best friend
And there's no way you're gonna help me
She's the only one who can
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose
You don't know her like I do"

Watching him perform has always mesmerized me, I can feel my heart racing at the way he's just staring into my eyes as he sings the song.

"I can't forget, I'm drowning in these memories

It fills my soul with all the little things
And I can't cope, it's like a death inside the family
It's like she stole my way to breathe
Don't try to tell me it stops hurting
Don't try to tell me she ain't worth it"

"You don't know her like I do
You'll never understand
You don't know what we've been through
That girl's my best friend
And there's no way you're gonna help me
She's the only one who can
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose

You don't know her like I do like I do"

"Cause you don't know her like I do

You'll never understand
You don't know what we've been through
That girl's my best friend
There's no way you're gonna help me
She's the only one who can
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose
You don't know her like I do like I do
Not like I do, not like I do, not like I do"

"You'll never understand
That girl's my best friend, that girl's my best friend

That girl's my best friend"

As the song comes to a close Kase smirks at me "what more proof do ya need sis? He just played that song specifically for you or else he wouldn't have said that the inspiration for it was here. It just further proves what we've been trying to tell you"

I can feel the tears well up as I push them back "I can't Kase... I just can't"

She rolls her eyes "that's bullshit Kelsey and you know it... You are still just as in love with him as he is with you... Sometimes babes you just gotta say fuck it and take the risk and I can guarantee that with you and B the risk is worth it"

I shake my head at her "we've been over this Kase I can't be the one to do that" as the boys start to walk off stage towards us I take off and run towards my dressing room to get my bag so I can lock myself in the back room of the bus away from everyone where I don't have to deal with this right now.

I make it back to the bus before Kase or B could catch me, Thomas looks at me weirdly as I run right past him and to the back room of the bus and I lock the door. Nope, I am not dealing with this right now... not gonna happen. 

****
Well, that was kind of intense... God, I am trying my best to drag this out because where is the fun in just throwing them right back together?? But y'all I don't know how much longer I can drag it out 😂😂
