It had been a few hours since breakfast and we were just hanging out in the hotel. There was a show later this afternoon so everyone started getting ready for that. I got changed into this:

We had an hour until the show and everyone had just finished getting ready. "Ready to go?" Josh said coming out of the bathroom. I nod and we all head downstairs. The ubers are already down there waiting for us. After a 15 minute drive we arrive at the venue. There are lines on people outside. "This is insane" Amelie said. I just look in amazement. The ubers went around the back of the venue and dropped us off. We got out and went inside. Amelie and I obviously weren't going to be in the meet and greet so the managers showed us where to sit. The meet and greet began. I was watching all of the girls jumping into the boys arms and giggled. When it was josh, it didn't bother me. But every time I looked at Jaden, a part of me got really jealous. About 45 minutes into the meet and greet I see him. The guy, from the other night. Instantly my breathing becomes heavy and I am overwhelmed with emotion. Amelie notices and says, "what's wrong are you okay?" I shake my head. He spots me. He gives me a creepy smirk and winks. Now, I can't breathe. I'm trying to breathe in and out like Josh had said to when I had my last panic attack. Is he here to hurt me? Is he going to try again? My thoughts where out of control and Amelie could tell. She looked terrified and she didn't know what to do. "j-j-Josh" I said extremely quietly still trying to get a breath out. Why is he here? "JOSH!" Amelie screams and he turns around. He notices that I'm having a panic attack and runs over leaving the fan he was with. He kneels down in front of me. I'm can't take my eyes off of Jordan. I'm frozen. I can't move. "Liv look at me" Josh says. "Liv look at me" he repeats. A tear falls from my eye. He uses his hand to turn my head to face him. "h-he's h-here" I got out. "Who?" Amelie says looking in the direction I was looking before. Josh also turns. He turns back. "Liv focus on me. Ok look at me" I face him, following what he's doing. Breathing in and out. After about 2 minutes, I was back. But more tears fell from my now burning eyes. "Come with me both of you" josh said putting his hand out for us to take. He walked us into a back room that had couches, a tv and a mini fridge. He sat us down and told us to "stay here". We both nod and he leaves. I take a deep breath. "Olivia you better start talking." She said sternly, but with a concerned tone. "I really didn't want to have to talk about it again" she sighed. "What happened to us?" "I don't know." A tear fell from her left eye, leaving it glistening in the light. "I'm sorry this is all my fault." She cried. "No Amelie none of this is your fault." "I'm always so preoccupied with Payton that I'm forgetting about you and your feelings" I looked down. "It's okay" "no it's not. I miss how we used to be." "I do too" I said looking back up at her. "Please talk to me" she said quietly. I sighed. "At the party, I um got drunk. Really drunk" "is that it? That's not even bad bub it happens to all of us" "no that's not it." I butted in. "I was hanging out with a guy, and I passed out. Next thing I wake up, on a bed, almost... naked" I said trying not to cry again. Her eyes turn to guilt, but anger at the same time. "He almost" she pulled me into a hug. "I'm so sorry I wasn't there" she cried into my shoulder. "It isn't your fault" I said with another tear falling from your eye. "who?" She asked indicating who helped me. "Josh." I said and she smiled at me. "He's a good guy" she said. "I know. I think I only see him as a friend though" I say. She looks surprised. "Really? Why?" She asked. "I still love Jaden." She nodded. "I know." She said. I smiled and looked down. We hear yelling coming from outside. I look at Amelie and we get up and go outside. We see a bunch of people crowded around someone yelling. We go over and push through the crowd of people and I see Jaden, on top of Jordan repeatedly punching him the face. "Jaden stop!" I yelled. He didn't. "JADEN!" I yelled pulling him back. "Why are you defending him Olivia! HE HURT YOU! THATS NO OKAY!" He yelled at me. Everyone was staring. A tear dropped down my cheek. I've never seen him this angry. "I'm sorry for yelling please don't cry" everyone was standing, still just watching us. Two paramedics came in as well as a police officer. "What happened?" The police officer asked. "I did it" Jaden said. "Jaden what are you doing?!" "I am taking you under arrest for assault" "no stop it's not his fault!" I yelled. "He did it for me!" Everyone had their phones our filming everything. "Miss I'm going to need you to step away" the police officer said. "Liv stop" Jaden said. I took a deep breath. "he tried to rape me! That's what he did it!" Everyone gasped and stopped in their tracks. "Olivia" Jaden said with guilt in his eyes. "Is this true sir?" The police officer asked. He nodded. She took the handcuffs off of him (I know this wouldn't actually happen but this is how I'm doing it 😂). "Liv you didn't have to do that." "Yes I did" he hugged me. "Liv when did that happen?" Anthony asked. "Let's not talk about this here." About 2 hours later we explained on social media briefly what had happened. We had wrapped up the show and rescheduled for the following day because they didn't get what they paid for. We went back to the hotel and pilled into one room. I told them what had happened. I even managed to get out about Elijah. That was a long night. We all stayed up talking, crying and hugging each other. Everyone kind of opened up. It felt good to not feel alone anymore.
