Small Town Boy

Chapter 34: Zach Sang Show

*I'm just not gonna say anything, enjoy the long awaited chapter 😊*

I hold onto Uriah's hand tighter, moving to walk closer to him as I fight the urge to look behind me once more. Uriah being the sweetheart he is decided to pick me up from the studio and instead of grabbing an uber to head back to my house we decided to walk back.

Of course I ended up wanting to stop to go get some Frozen Yoghurt because I've been craving some but mostly because I miss the ice cream days I had with Uriah back in Alabama. I missed our dates where we could go hike or spend the day at the beach without having to worry about people following us all the time.

Like right now.

There's this guy that has been following me around for as long as I can remember. He gets annoying at time but all I do is ignore him. The fans do love some pictures and that's all they are, pictures. On some days I don't mind it cause I do look good wearing an outfit and it would be disappointing to not get at least one picture.

However on days like these where I spent the entire day in the studio is a no go. I'm literally wearing Uriah's baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants. My hair is dirty and messy and just plain ugly right now. I don't feel like facing anyone. I just want my Froyo.

I can see Uriah mentally arguing with himself, he doesn't know whether he should face the guy, comfort me or just ignore it all together.

He can see I'm uncomfortable but he doesn't want the guy to get pictures of him acting coupley towards me. We did decide to reveal our relationship but not through paparazzi pictures. We've been holding it out for a few weeks longer, savouring as much as we can before we're exposed.

If I'm honest neither of us really want to reveal anything which is probably also why we're pushing it until we can't anymore. I can see us holding it out for a few more month and I'll actually be completely fine with that. Happy even.

I sigh in relief when I spot the Froyo shop and tug on Uriah's arm to get him to walk faster. We walk inside and I glance back seeing the guy stop a few blocks down, his gaze on his camera to see the pictures he took.

"I swear if he keeps following us I'll slap him with a restraining order," he grumbles angrily.

"Hey it's okay-"

"No it's not!" He raises his voice slightly, keeping his glaring eyes on the man. "You don't have to deal with this bullshit. I'll seriously have a word to Jerrad about this." I sigh but nod nonetheless.

"Fine, can we just get some Froyo now?" I ask hopefully, a small smile on my lips.

"Yes, I'm sorry baby."

"Its okay, just let's forget about him."

"Okay."

We each grab a cup, filling it with whatever we want before paying an finding a seat away from the windows. We mess around like we always do. Him cracking jokes to get me to smile and laugh whilst I steal his ice cream. The fact that he doesn't even mind it anymore making me love him even more. He's gotten used to me and I couldn't appreciate it more than I already do.

When we decide to leave the guy is still waiting for us, leaning against a poll. I sigh and take a few steps towards him but that isn't without Uriah standing right next to me, holding me close, his over protective side coming out.

"Hey, you've already gotten your pictures can you just leave us alone now please." He looks at me with wide eyes, in disbelief that I'm actually communicating with him. "Oh, um-" he stutters "Yeah, yes ok."
