Rye's Pov:
It was 02:33am and for some reason I couldn't sleep. I decided to go and get a myself a cup of tea to see if it could calm me down because for some reason I felt nervous. I gently removed Hayley's head off my chest, trying not to wake her. as I get up off my bed I turn around to check that she is still asleep. she was. she looked so peaceful when she was asleep. I love her so much...
As I walk down the stairs I see that there is a light on in the kitchen, which was strange because of how early in the morning it was. I decided to go into the kitchen to see who it was. I had a feeling it would have been Alex editing our latest vlog but it wasn't...
it was Andy.
he was sat on the stool in the kitchen with his head his hands. I saw his phone on the table, he had a photo of him and ivy open from a family wedding a few weeks back. Ivy had been away for a while with Blair And Harvey supporting Harvey on his tour. since she left I've noticed that Andy hasn't been the same as usual.
"Hey fovvs"
Andy's Pov:
I was sat in the kitchen just thinking to myself about how much I miss Ivy. She's been gone for so long and its understandable that I miss her when we usually all spend every day together. I began to look at our photos from a family wedding a few weeks back and it began to make me tear up I threw my phone onto the side and put my head in my hands letting a few tears fall from my eyes.
When I begin to hear someone come into the kitchen.
It was Rye.
"hey fovvs" he whispered. "oh, hi." I replied. I really didn't want to talk to anyone right now. but I couldn't ignore him especially because it was rye. "what are you doing up?" he asked while sitting on the stool next to me. "couldn't sleep" I responded while trying to avoid eye contact so he couldn't see that I was crying. "neither" he replied.
he rested his head on my shoulder and we stayed there for a while just embracing the silence.
"that's a lovely photo you know..."
I instantly burst out crying at the thought of Ivy and how we used to be. Rye instantly took me into his arms and played with my hair until I calmed down.
"Im sorry" I muttered. " what for?" he replied. "being so upset, I know you weren't expecting to find me down here in this state, you can go its okay.. I'll be fine honestly" Rye sat up and looked me dead in the eye while his thumb was tracing over my hand. "Andy, you clearly aren't okay. I'm not leaving you down here on your own when you're in this state.. come on fovvs talk to me. please."
"fine" I said.
We sat and spoke about everything. it was nice.
Rye's Pov:
We sat and spoke about everything. it was nice.
Andy told me about how in love he was with Ivy and how much he missed her. He opened up to me about his insecurities and how he thought he would loose Ivy to Harvey because they seem to be really enjoying each others company while they're on tour. I couldn't help but get upset when he was telling me all these things. How could anyone hurt him?
"Rye..." he said while fiddling with the sleeve on his dressing gown. I could tell he was nervous. "yeah" I looked over at him and he was tearing up again. "hey its okay, calm down what's going through your head" I ask. I'm worried about him. A lot.
Andy's Pov:
"Can I ask you something?" I asked. "yeah of course, what's wrong?" he replied while sitting up straight with a concerned look on his face. "have you ever been so in love with someone that it completely consumes you. and you fell like the whole world stops whenever you're with them? you feel safe and you know that as long as you have them in your life, you know everything will turn out okay.." I don't know why I just asked that.. but I did. "yes I have. only once. but once was enough." he replied. he was talking about Hayley. I've never seen two people so in love. its crazy but seeing him happy is the best thing. "Andy... you okay mate?" rye asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. "what, oh yeah I'm good, was just thinking about Ivy again" "Andy she loves you, you don't need to worry. that type of love you were talking about. that's exactly what you guys have" he replied.
Rye's Pov:
I could see the hurt in Andy's eyes when he was talking to me. and I knew there was nothing i could do to help. he needed his girl home. but she wasn't due home for another week.
"I don't think she loves me rye, I really don't" Andy said, making me jump. "Andy what are you talking about?" "we don't have that type of love Rye" "But you've experienced it before?" I asked, slightly confused. "I have, a long time ago. So I know what true love is Rye. I really do. And I don't think this is it." At this point my heart was racing, what was he saying? I let it slide and just gave him a hug.
"she loves you fovvs. Trust me she does, she'd be stupid not too" he looks at me and just smiles. We realise that it is now 04:25am and we should probably go to sleep.
We head back upstairs and as we go to our own rooms. I grab his arm. "Are you going to be okay" I ask. "yes, trust me ill be okay once she's home. but at least you're happy" "night fovvs" "night rye"
Well that was weird.. I go back into my room as quietly as possible, I climb back into bed and lie next to Hayley as she moves and places her head in the crook of my neck. I love her. So much. but is it the love that consumes me? no. that love was for someone else. someone I can no longer think about. I cant.
The conversation with Andy played on a loop and kept me up all night....
"at least you're happy"
Am I?
