*JESSE'S POV*

I need to inform Chase that me and Louis are back together. I feel bad about having to do this.

I arrive at the hotel that he's staying in.

I get to his room and knock after a few seconds of waiting he answers the door.

"Hi." He smiles.

"Hey." I slightly smile.

"Come in." He steps aside.

I walk in and sit down on the couch. He sits next to me.

He wraps an arm around my shoulders. I tense up.

"What's wrong?" He asks as he senses my distance.

I sigh.

"Please don't get mad." I ask him.

"I won't, I swear." He says.

"Pinky swear?" I ask.

I raise my pinky.

"Pinky promise." He says as he hooks my small pinky with his large one.

A smile appears on my lips.

"Okay, go on." He pushes.

My smile fades.

"Well, me and Louis. We're....back...together." I fumble for my words.

"What?" He's confused.

"Louis and me are-" I get cut off from him, "I know." He says.

"I'm sorry." I panic.

"No, it's fine." He says.

He removes his arm.

"Chase, can we still be friends?" I ask with a small voice.

"Yeah." He says nicely.

"Good." I smile a small smile.

I hug him.

"Well, I've got to go. Maybe we could hang out sometime?" I suggest.

"Sure. Next week on Friday maybe?" He asks.

I just remembered I'm going on tour with Louis.

"I'm sorry, I can't." I say sadly.

"Why?" He asks.

"I'm going on tour with Louis." I tell him.

"Oh." He says.

"Yeah. I'll call you once we get back. But that will be a while from now." I tell him.

"Yeah. Well congratulations with getting back with him I guess." He says sadly.

"I'm sorry." I repeat my words from earlier.

"It's fine." He says, trying to smile.

"I've got to go. We're packing for the tour. And we're leaving for the airport tomorrow." I tell him.

"Okay. Bye for now." He says as we both stand up from the couch.

"Bye." I tell him. I give him a hug and peck his cheek. It was only a friendship one, he likes me but I'm going out with Louis.

Louis smuggles me on the jet into his room.

"Stay in here the whole time. I'll stay in here with you." He says.
