living on the edge

Chapter 20: Cameron & Taylor

"I don't know, I think I'm stressed." I sighed. "About?" "About everything, Matt." I whispered looking up at the dim light sculpting his face. He bit his bottom lip hugging me tighter as I nuzzled my head into the crook of his neck. "Try to get some sleep." was the last thing he whispered before I dozed off.

"Lexee, Lexee, Lexee." I woke up to my name being said. The voice belonged to Mahogany watching Matt and I sleep. "You gotta stick to one guy Lex." she teased me shaking her head. "Hey I'm not commited to just one yet." I said sitting up. I got ready changing into a Nashty shirt, jeans, converse, and did the usual stuff in the bathroom once Mahogany left to the event. "Matt!" I whisper/yelled shaking his arm since he was still asleep. "Huh?!" he woke up paranoid. "Get up and go get ready. You sleep too much." I giggled.

"You snore too much." he mumbled getting out of bed sleepily. "That was Mahoganyy!" I sang tying up my sneakers. "See you soon." he smiled before leaving my room. Today I was determined to get my Twitter back and delete the fake comments. But of course we had the event first. "You look tired." Nash said to Cameron in the elevator. "My phone kept buzzing last night. Twitter comments." he groaned leaning his head against the wall.

"Why didn't you just switch it to silent?" I asked before walking out into the lobby. Cam glared at me, "I was too tired to focus on what was happening." Awh, little Cam is stressed today. We hopped into the car driving off the Magcon with very little space to move in the crammed seats. "Hey Matt, where were you this morning? I woke up and you weren't in the room." Taylor asked him. My eyes widened a bit as I looked out the window.

"Uh..the uh..the um..there's no time for questions, we're here!" he said opening the car door even though we didn't even make it to a complete stop. The guys looked at him confused as I stepped out to catch up to him in between the fans. "Smooth." I rolled my eyes. "I didn't give it away." he said opening the door to backstage after we made it inside. "Uh, the um the..there's no time for questions!" I mocked him playfully.

"Shut up, Brooks." he smirked. "We really have to film a video today after the show, so be ready." Nash said as we waited by the doors to the stage. We were running a little late this morning since Cam took forever to get ready. Our names began to get called, and we ran to the fans and then on the stage doing our normal funny stuff. Shawn sang about an hour in when all the lights dimmed on the stage. We all stood back giving him the spotlight.

"Lexee, don't hate us for this...but we're gonna help you out with something." Matt smirked motioning to himself, Aaron and Carter. "What?" I whispered to them. "You'll see." Uh oh, who knows what these boys could do on stage, and to help me out with something? This couldn't be good. I stood nervously waiting for Shawn to be done singing and when he was, Matt, Aaron, and Carter took over the microphones.

"So as you all know, Lex over here has been hacked on Twitter." Matt motioned to me standing next to Nash like What the hell are you doing? "We're working on getting it back, but just be sure to understand that everything being posted is a lie...ExceptThatSheDoesLikeCameron. MEET AND GREET TIME!" Matt jumbled that part together quickly and then yelled the last sentence walking off the stage with Aaron and Carter who were laughing. The fans were a mess in the crowd screaming and stuff, but I stood there with my jaw dropped not wanting to move.

"Lex come on." Nash said in between laughs pulling at my forearm to get me off the stage. "But.." I said breathlessy. "Come on." he chuckled pulling me down with him. "But...oh my god." I rolled my eyes awkwardly walking to my backdrop to meet the fans. "Do you really like Cameron?" Was the number one sentence I heard for that whole time. I gave them an awkward laugh and most of them squealed, but one girl slapped me...

She walked away standing tall stomping her feet as I watched her in shock. I was just abused...I laughed at the thought but in reality my cheek was stinging. Thankfully she was the last "fan" to meet, and that was the end of the event. "I can't believe you guys said that." Mahogany glared at Matt, Aaron, and Carter backstage. "It had to be done somehow." Matt chuckled. "I can't believe a girl slapped me." I said sarcastically. "Someone slapped you?!" Taylor laughed.
