PRETTYMUCH a Lie [n.m]

Amelia

"We have so much to discuss," Alison linked arms with me after we stepped out of the Uber.

I giggled to myself as memories of the previous hours raced through my mind. I was almost positive that Nick liked me.

This feeling that I had inside of me was amazing. I also couldn't help but think that what we had was over too. He was a musician. He lived across the United States. It would be almost impossible for us to hangout.

I had never had a long-distance relationship before. I didn't really know what I was doing in that aspect. Did he even want a relationship with me? I had no idea.

We helped Emily into the Elevator and up to our room. She had drunk a little too much on the bus and was feeling it a little roughly.

We had to tell the Uber driver to pull over on the way home from the boy's hotel so she could throw up.

We put her to bed in the handicap room with a trash can beside her and shut the door.We had all been there before. She was going to feel that in the morning. If she wasn't already feeling it now.

Alison and I got comfortable in our bed and laid down facing each other.

"Spill bitch," she said as she laid her head on top of her arm and stared at me.

"I mean you can guess what happened." I felt my cheeks get warm.

"It was literally the best thing that's ever happened to me. He is so amazing," I fawned.

"You sound like you are in love girl!" she screamed at me. I rolled my eyes at her comment.

"Enough about me, what happened with you and Zion?" I pushed.

Alison became flustered as a smile slowly formed on her face. She bit her lip and started her story.

"Well, after you guys left, Edwin left us in the room by ourselves and I just had to jump on. He is so sexy."

I laughed.l with her. I couldn't agree more, Zion was attractive. I honestly thought he looked better than AJ. He seemed to treat her better than him as well.

"Do you think you guys will become friends? Or was it just a hookup?" I asked timidly.

"I don't know. I have his number, so I guess we will see in time. I hope it wasn't just a hookup," she said as her expression died a little. She shrugged her shoulders as we continued to go into detail about our sexual encounters.

The next morning, we had to wake up a bit earlier than we wanted to. Check out was at eleven and we were a bit late. Seeing as how Alison and I stayed up past four in the morning gossiping to each other. Emily was really hungover. I think she was also upset she didn't get any action with Edwin or Brandon.

We decided on finding a place for lunch and looking around for about an hour and then heading back home. We were all tired and not in the mood to stay out all day and we also didn't want to annoy the boys.

I had a pounding headache, so Alison was the one driving my car. I persuaded the girls to eat at this small Mexican place. I was craving something spicy.

After lunch, we decided to go ahead and drive home. I just wanted to take a nap. Nick hadn't texted me yet and I was getting a little upset. I slept the majority of the way home.

We stopped somewhere and picked up dinner, but I didn't speak much to the girls. I just stuck to leaning my seat back and staring out the window like a depressed child.

I had no idea what was wrong with me. I guess it was because I knew I wouldn't see Nick for a while, or maybe even ever again. I caught up on some homework when we got back to our dorms.

I stayed off of my phone the majority of the day because it was blowing up for some reason. Everyone was tagging me in posts and what not. I told myself I would look later, I just didn't care right now. I wanted to see Nick's name pop up and every time I looked at my phone and saw someone else's name, it made me feel like shit.

The rest of the week was super slow. I spoke a little back and forth with Nick, but they had back to back shows, so he told me he was super busy. Zion was texting Alison though, a lot.

"Ali, you should really talk to AJ," I suggested as kindly as possible.

I was really getting worried about her. I knew she liked Zion, but she couldn't keep dating AJ. It was wrong.

"I know, I'm going to call him tomorrow," she sighed.

"Call him now Ali. Go ahead and get it over with. You will feel much better about it, and you will be able to sleep better too. Especially for finals next week," I pleaded with her.

"Fine," she grunted and slid off of her bed. She climbed on my bed and plopped down beside me.

Soon enough she was dialing his number. The phone rang a few times until a low voice spoke through the other end of the phone.

"Hello? Why are you calling so late?" AJ sounded annoyed.

Is this how he talked to Alison on the regular? How rude.

"Hey, babe," Alison stuttered out but bravely continued, "I have something to tell you."

"What the fuck is it? I'm trying to sleep. I have baseball practice in the morning you know that.

Alison took a big gulp and started to speak but was cut off by a girlish voice in the background.

"Tiff, shut up," AJ whispered.

Alison and I both froze in shock.
