Stay Strong (IM5/Dana Vaughns)

Chapter 6: Like I Really Don't Care

*1 Week Later*

City's POV:

It has been one week since I last spoke to the Dana and the boys. The next day I went to the airport were I was surrounded in hugs, and tears from my family and my friends. I told them I loved them and hoped on the plane with Lily. The boys and I had different flights.

Oh! I forgot to mention that Lily is moving to L.A. with me and becoming my personal stylist! Her parents and mine both agreed that it wasn't fair that her and I were seperated even more. And since Gabe is practically family to them their letting us rent our own apartment about a block away from the boy's place!

Lily and I were right now getting back to our apartemnt from rehearsals. I still haven't seen the boys and I plan on not seeing them until tonight. Our plan for the boys was going great! I can't wait until tonight.

"Ugh! It was like they were trying to kill me!" I whinned.

"Well thanks for letting me come along. I think I picked up a few moves." she said. We both bursted out laughing knowing the fact she can't dance to save her life.

"I'm going to go take a shower. Please get the outfit ready so you ad I can go to the soundcheck." I said before going into the bathroom. I quickly hop in the shower, reviewing the plan for tonight. All I had to do was get ready real quick and be there before IM5 arrives.

I get out of the shower and put on my 'You Can't Sit With Us' crop top, black shorts, and my white converse. I run out of my room, downstairs and hop into Lily's car.

We drove to 'CityWalk' and ran towards the stage, making sure that the boys couldn't see me. I saw Dana, he tried to talk to me but I kept running. Lily and I ran into my dressing room and locked the door, leaning against it and panting.

David's POV (Trying New People)

I got off the phone with some old buddies of mine from Chicago. I walked out the dressing room to see City and her stylist Lily running to City's dressing room ignoring Dana's attempts to talk to her. I go up to him and put my hand on his shoulder but he shrugged it off and walked away.

I felt bad so I walked towards Gabe room. I opened the door and see him on his phone.

"Yo dude can I talk to you for a sec." I asked.

"Sure." he said before placing his phone next to him. "What's up?"

"Well City has been ignoring all of us this week especially Dana. And right now, he seems really depressed. I think you should talk to him." I tried to say not angering him.

"Why should I talk to him? He was the one sleeping around with my cousin. What would I even say to him?" he yelled at me.

"We don't even know if they slept together. Also, I don't know? You could maybe see how much he likes her and if they start dating to have some ground rules?" I suggested.

"Okay just stop right there." he says. "I didn't want her to meet anyone here because I don't want her to get played by anyone. And by accident she meets you guys and now you have the right to completely go ignore what I said?" He looked super pissed now.

"No, I'll just go." I said walking out of the room before I punched him. I quickly ran into my dressing room, slamming the door before sitting in my chair and placed my head in my hands.

Back to City's POV:

"You go on in 30 minutes." Lily says bursting through the door. "Let's make you look biker, hood good!"

*25 Minutes Later*

"OMG! You look S-E-X-Y, SEXY!!!" she squeals.

"Thank you. You are the greatest friend in the world." I said starng myself in the mirror. I was wearing a black bandeau, a plaid red, black and grey flannel shirt leaving it opened, American jean denim booty shorts and my favorite shoes, black and white Adidas. My hair was in a high ponytail letting my curls look like springs from the back of my head. I was also wearing my classic big hoop earrings.
