When I get on the plane, I sit down in my seat which is, fortunately, next to the window. I take my makeup wipes out of my bag and start to take off all this makeup. I look at the time and see that it's 10:00. The boys are probably almost done performing. I lay my head down on the window and watch as we take off. I close my eyes and try to convince myself that this is better for me.
"Attention passengers, we have arrived in Virginia." The flight attendant said over the loud speaker. I open my eyes and see that it's bright outside and everyone's getting off the plane. I rub my eyes and get up, grabbing my stuff. I look at my phone and see that it's 3:00AM. As I check hithe time, I see that I got a bunch of messages from Jon, Zack, jenna, and the boys. "Where are you?" "Why did you leave?" "Call me" all the boys messages said. I look at Jenna's messages after theirs. "Please don't tell me you're going to moms." Her text said. I sigh as I get into an Uber. I tell him where to go and I shut off my phone. "Where are you headed?" The driver asked after I gave him the address. I sigh. "My moms house."
"Thank you." I said as I get out of the Uber. The driver drives off and I look at my house. I sigh. Hopefully my moms asleep so I don't have to face her until the morning. I walk into the house, which is always unlocked for some reason, and see my mom watching tv. She turns around and sees me. "What are YOU doing here?" She asked with an attitude. Of coarse she's drunk. When is she not? "Mom, I need to come home." I said. "No you don't. I don't want you here." She said. I sigh. "Where's jenna?" She asked. "She's not here." I said. "Where is she?" She asked. "None of your business." I said under my breathe. "What the fuck did you just say to me?!" My mom yelled as she got up from the couch. "She doesn't want you to know where she is. She hates you." I said. "Does she or are you telling her to?" She asked as she gets closer to me. "No. She hates you because you're a drunk low life and you don't give a fuck about anyone but yourself!" I yelled. She gets closer to me and punches me as hard as she can in the face. I fall to the floor and hold my nose. It's bleeding so much. I see her standing over me. "Take it back. Tell me you're sorry and you need me in yours and Jenna's life." She said. "I'm not a liar." I said. She sighs and kicks me as hard as she can in the face. My vision be aimed blurry and dark. She lifts her leg again and kicks me in the face. I finally pass out.
"GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! GET OUT!" I my mom scream bloody murder. I groan as my ears ring and my face throbs. I remember what happened and that I'm still laying on the hardwood living room floor. I feel someone touch my arm. I slowly open my eyes. It's still dark out. I see Jenna kneeling down next to me, looking over me. "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!" She yells again. "You need to calm down." I hear Jon say, calmly. "NO! WHY ARE YOU HERE?!" She screams. "We came for Riley." He said. "FINE! TAKE HER! SHE WAS A MISTAKE ANYWAYS!" My mom yells. "What did she do to you?" Jenna said, softly. I start to cry. "She punched me and kicked me in the face." I said as I start balling. "Stop crying! You're 21, grow up!" She yelled as she got closer to me. "Back up!" Jon yelled at her. She gives him a dirty look and backs up. I see Jonah walk over to me. "Hey." He said, sympathetically. I just sob as he rubs my throbbing face. "It hurts so bad." I cried. "I know. Come on. It's gonna be okay." He said as he reaches his arms out to me. I lift my arms and wrap them around him. He picks me up and I wrap my legs around him. I see all the boys watching as I cry and Jon makes my mom back off. "Come on. Let's get out of here." Jon said as him and the boys start to walk away. Jonah walks out first, holding me in his arms. "Fine! Just leave! You'll come back, I know it!" My mom yells as we all walk out. Jenna is walking behind me and Jonah. "Is she gonna be okay?" Jenna asked. "She'll be fine." Jon said to her. "Can we take her to the hospital please?" She asked. "Should we?" Zach asked. "I think we should. Look at her." Daniel said. "No." I said. "What?" Zach asked. "I don't need to go to the hospital." I said as I cry. "But-" Daniel said. "I'm fine." I said. Jon sighs. "Okay." He said. I just wanna sleep. "What time is it?" I asked. "It's 11:00PM." Zack said. "It's the next day?" I asked. "Yeah." He said. I've been asleep that long? We walk into the bus and Jonah lays me down on his bed. "I'm sorry, Riley." He said. I'm crying so hard that I can't say anything. It hurts really bad but I don't need to go to the hospital. He kisses me on the forehead and is about to walk away. I grab his arm before he does. He turns around and looks at me. I pat the bed next to me intending for him to lay down. "You want me to lay down with you for a while?" He asked. I nod. He smiles. "Okay." He said. He lays down next to me. I lay my head on his chest and he rubs my back. "I got you." He said. I take a deep breath and close my eyes, trying not to cry again. I look up at jonah and his eyes are closed. "Are you tired?" I asked. "Yeah. I didn't sleep at all today." He said. "I'm sorry." I said. "It's okay. I'm just gonna take a little nap." He said with his eyes still closed. I smile and kiss him on his cheek. He doesn't move or anything. I lay my head back down on his chest and close my eyes. I hear footsteps walking past us. "Hey." I hear a little aggressively. I open my eyes and see corbyn. "Hey." He said as shakes Jonah hardly. Jonah groans. "What are you doing?" Corbyn asked as Jonah goes back to sleep. I don't think he was even awake. "What do you mean?" I asked. "So you're with him now, huh?" Corbyn asked. "What are you talking about?" I asked as I sit up, slowly. "Don't play dumb." Corbyn said. "You have a girlfriend. Remember?" I said, getting mad. "Come on. You know-" he said before I cut him off. "You know....what? All I know is that she has you wrapped around her finger and she's getting the benefits of it." I said. "What are you talking about?" He asked. "You know what I'm talking about, Corbyn! Are you're saying I'm playing dumb. oKaY." I said, rolling my eyes. "I'm done talking about this." He said. "You brought it up." I said. He rolls his eyes and walks away. I sigh. "What happened?" Jenna asked me. I sigh. "It's nothing." I said. "Okay." She said. Then I realize something. I gasp and run over to corbyn. "What?" Jenna asked. "What? Do you want to yell at me some more?" He asked. "No, but listen." I said. I play him the video I forgot I took of Christina saying horrible stuff about Corbyn. I watch as his heart breaks. "I gotta go." He said when the video ends. He walks out of the bus. I sigh and sit down on the couch. "What happened?"
Jenna asked. "Nothing." I said. "You say that a lot, you know." She said as she walks away. I roll my eyes and laugh a little. My face hurts so bad and I wanna go to sleep but I have to wait for corbyn to get back to see if he's okay. I turn on the tv and lay down.
I hear the door slam open as I start waking up. I open my eyes and see corbyn storm past me. I get off the couch and try to catch up with him. He plops down on his bunk and starts to cry. I've never seen him cry before. I sit down on the bed next to him and rub his back. "What happened?" I asked. It takes a minute for him to answer me. "I broke up with Christina." He sobbed. HE broke up with HER? "I'm sorry." I said. He's sobbing so hard. It breaks my heart. I rub his head as his face turns red from crying so hard. "What's going on?" Zach asked, half asleep. "Nothing. Just go back to sleep." I said. "Okay." He mumbled as he lays back down. I sigh as Corbyn continues to cry. "It's okay." I said sympathetically. "No it's not. I love her." He said. I continue to rub his head. "I know." I said. He starts to stop crying a little. "Do you need some water?" I asked. He nods. "Okay. I'll be right back." I said. I got up off the bed and went into the kitchen area of the bus. I grab a plastic cup and fill it with cold water. I walk back over to corbyn and he sits up as he grabs the cup. He takes a sip and sighs. I sit down on the bed next to him and he puts the cup on the ground next to his bed. He lays down and looks at me. "Wanna talk about it?" I asked. He sighs. "Maybe tomorrow." He said. I grin a little. "Okay." I said. He just looks at me and pats the bed. I look over at jonah and he's dead asleep. I look back at corbyn and lay down next to him. He lays his head on my chest and wraps his arms around me. I smile and rub his back. "I'm sorry for what I said earlier. I shouldn't have talked to you like that." I said. "No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have overreacted. I had a girlfriend. I shouldn't have been mad about you and Jonah." He said. I nod. "So....are you guys a thing?" He asked. "Uh...I don't know. He said he likes me and we kissed but that's it." I said. "So the cuddling was nothing?" He asked. "Come on. I cuddle with zach all the time!" I laugh. Corbyn laughs. "I know. I'm sorry." He said. I rub his head. "It's okay. And I'm sorry things didn't work out with Christina." I said. "No you're not." He said, laughing. I laugh. "I'm sorry it's making you so upset." I said. He nods and closes his eyes. I sigh and rub his head. I look into the darkness as I think. I really like Corbyn but I feel like I shouldn't just until he gets over christina. And I don't know if I should be liking Jonah anymore either. I mean, if I'm going to be on tour with them, then I shouldn't cause something between Jonah and corbyn.
