11th of may - 19 days until tour

the next two days were hard. me and matty were fine again, but we didn't really talk about what happened. he refused to come out of his room for the most of it. i mostly just drank and george just looked tired and conceded.
"grace" he said walking into the living room
"yes george?"
"we are going out tonight. go get ready"
"i actually need to leave this apartment so yes!"
he grinned at me as i headed towards the bedroom. my bag was in the corner now incase i had to go to george's again. i pulled out a black leather skirt, tights and a off the shoulder black top. to top it off i took my old school vans and mattys leather jacket. for makeup i just did my brows and lashes. ready.
as i emerged from mattys room george smiled
"you ready?"
"yes i am" we walked down to his car and got in. as he slipped the car into gear i felt like i was flying
"where are we going?" he tapped his nose
"it's a surprise"  i groaned at him
"ughhh george"
"shutup you will love it" the drive only took like 15 minutes and we pulled up outside a funfair
"george!" i squealed leaning over to hug him.
"you like it?" he said laughing
"YES"
"THEN LETS GO" he said. we got out of the car, me dressed in nearly all black. him dressed in skinny black jeans, a white t-shirt and a lyle and scott pull over jacket.
"hang on" i said taking the leather jacket off
"it's kinda hot" and that was true, i also didint want to be reminded of matty right now.
"you ready now?"
"oh i am georgie" we walked towards. the glow of the lights emerging from the funfair. as soon as we got into the park we were greeted with smells from every angel, flashing lights and kids laughing and having fun.
"where first?" he asked
"umm" i said mulling it over
"the ferris wheel"
"you got it" he said walking over and paying for a ticket as we clambered onto the rickety seat. the man smiled at us before locking the door
"what a cute couple" george decided to play along, taking my hand into his massive palm
"yeah we are" as soon as the ride took off he burst out laughing
"oh god" he said
"george! you're rocking the thing stop laughing" i said playfully punching him. he faked hurt for a while before we just started to watch the world go by.
"wow"
"wow" he added
"it's so beautiful" i said
"yeah"
"how did you know about this place george?"
"lia always made me take her at least once a week" i looked at him for a long time before taking his hand back into mine
"well thankyou for sharing this little bit of lia with me, it means a lot" he grinned
"i want to share lia more with everyone, i spent months unable to talk about her but now i'm ready" i nodded, i was getting there too.
"but, i brought you here to talk about matty, has he told you the reason he used the other night?"
"no"
"i guess i'll have to then" he said before clearing his throat
"mattys mum was an addict, seeing her ... gets him l riled up and worried. i guess it was important to him and he just couldn't do it sober"
"i wish he told me"
"you know what he's like, he wants to make you think his life is perfect. so you have nothing to worry about"
"it shouldn't be like that"
"i know" he said. we started to watch the views go bye again, it was beautiful
"you still coming on tour yeah?"
"george of course i am" he sighed with relief
"okay good"

two hours later

"GEORGE GIVE UP" i practically screamed. he'd been trying to get these balls into the buckets for an hour now. i groaned onto his arm
"oi you're putting me off" he moaned
"georgeeeee"
"fine fine, thanks mate but your games a scam" he said to the clerk, the clerk just chuckled at george. we walked out of the park happy and back to his car.

i saw a family come towards us with a little girl around 14
"excuse me, my daughter couldnt have a picture with you could she? she loves your band" the little girl grinned at george
"i love your music" she smiled
"of course darling, what's your name?"
"i'm jessica" she beamed at him. i loved how the boys made their fans feel good. the mum took serval pictures of them together.
"your mattys girlfriend aren't you?" the little girl asked
"yeah i am"
"i think he's hot" she giggled
"so do i" i laughed. george waved them before we got into the car. he started it up
"sweet kid" he commented. i nodded in agreement as we sped away back to the apartment
