*alyssa pov*
last day of coachella. it was about 9pm, we came quite late to the grounds today, at 5pm, because there wasn't many people we wanted to see apart from the later shows. to be honest, i don't think we would have come at al if it wasn't for ariana grande playing at 11:30pm later on since david is literally a huge fan. we spent the last 4 hours just catching up with some people and taking more photos. i spent my time keeping an eye out for cierra and holding jeff close to me. i didn't even care anymore if i looked clingy but i was, admittedly, terrified that one of jeff's fan girl models would try and seduce him or something and he'd leave me. i hoped jeff didn't mind me clinging on to him, he didn't seem to and always had his arm around me or was holding my hand but i felt like i was holding him back. david asked if jeff and i wanted to join him and daisy up in the ferris wheel, which we were happy to. it was dark out now so all the lights were on. once we were inside david started recording a bit. daisy and i were sat opposite our respective boys.
"guys imagine if everyone out there right now just disappeared." he pointed his camera out to the people below us, who all looked so small from up here.
"we would have to re-populate instantly!" jeff chuckled out. we all laughed in response before he looked at me yelling. "alyssa!"
david laughed even louder at his joke before i winked and blew jeff a kiss. he looked gorgeous in the dark glow of the pod whilst laughing. i shook this off my thoughts and looked outside at the pretty lights. we were supposed to be 'test-running' us dating again and i honestly loved it but i could feel my insecurities rising up rapidly everytime we were out. jeff had grown increasingly more handsome since we last saw each other and especially due to the fact he was famous, i knew that any girl would be trying to get into his pants. i felt a pair of warm hands grab mine, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"lis? we're getting off next. you okay?" jeff's voice asked gently. i smiled.
"i feel amazing." i wasn't lying, because i did feel great. he smiled before pulling me into a quick kiss, and receiving a childish 'ew!' from david, who's camera was recording us. i stuck my finger up at him before we all got out and headed back to the shows and started getting ready for ariana grande's show.
*jeff's pov*
we were about halfway through ariana's show when i felt alyssa being pulled from me. i turned my head as she tiptoed to my ear to yell over the music.
"i found some old friends, let me say hi i'll be right back babe!" i nodded before moving closer to natalie and david. roughly 30 minutes later, david thought of an idea for natalie to put him on her shoulders before charlotte d'alessio came and asked me to put her on my shoulders so she can take some pics. i shrugged it off before bending for her to sit, then stood up and let her photographer take some pics. she promised i wasn't in the shot but i saw a flash as david's phone camera caught a shot of him and nat. i swore to myself silently as i knew i was in the background and would be seen carrying charlotte. she tapped my head to put me down and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
"thank you!" she yelled at me before turning away, probably to find charlotte lawrence. natalie had put david down at this point and everyone was laughing. alyssa still wasn't back and i noticed daisy had disappeared too.
"dave! where's daisy and aly?"
"i have no clue, she told me they went to meet some old friends!" he yelled back in reply. i decided to let it go but asked todd to just help ensure david and i werent swarmed with girls in case our girls came back. about an hour later, the show was over and we were supposed to be leaving but aly and daisy still weren't back. the worst thing about the coachella valley is that there is no fucking signal anywhere, so we couldn't even call and ask where they were. david started panicking slightly.
"the bus is going to leave us! where the fuck are the girls?!" natalie tried to calm him but it was an almost fruitless attempt as even she was slightly worried. to be honest, the whole group was. suddenly i heard someone yelling my name. i turned, trying to find who was saying it, before looking straight behind david to find -
"cierra?!" i pushed past david towards the small latina girl. "are you okay?"
"yeah i'm fine i was just wanting to say hi- are you okay? you look worried." she frowned slightly.
"uhm no, no i'm good we're just waiting for alyssa."
i suddenly saw some flashing and knew there were paps hidden, no doubt trying to fish for some new gossip.
"hey jeff, i know you have your new group but the rest of us miss you too you know, maia, rudy, etc. come hangout sometime we'll set a date. i nodded in reply before hearing a familiar voice call out my name, so i turned my head to see alyssa running over with daisy, both of them panting. i wave at them before i feel cierra grab my face and pull me into a kiss. i shove her off and turn to alyssa, who's stopped about 5 metres from us, shocked with horror. for a few moments i feel like everything is in slow motion. david yelling whilst recording, daisy and corinna running forwards to push cierra, who was grinning and laughing, paparazzi yelling whilst clicking their camera's. i snap out of the weird phase and run towards alyssa who's face has contorted to anger.
"alyssa calm down, don't make a scene! there's paps everywhere we need to go now!" ittt and pull her but she shoves me off and storms to cierra.
"you must be alyssa! i'm cierra baby, i'm so sorry jeff's not changed one bit, has he?"
"you're a fucking cow! what the fuck did i do to you, you bitch?!" alyssa slapped cierra. i ran forwards to pull alyssa but todd pulled me back and told me to hold it, we all knew alyssa needed to get this out and unfortunately it had to be this way. she was built in a way to fight her feelings and if she didn't, she would snap at anyone until it was out of her system. i still yelled out.
"alyssa! that's enough, you gave her what she deserved!" she ignored me, and cierra took a step closer.
"i'm taking back what's mine you little gold digging whore. you already said you didn't want anything to do with jeff before, why are you trying to get back with him?!"
"i was with him before you two even met i-" alyssa got cut off by someone calling for cierra.
"cierra! stop it, you are drunk! i told you this was a bad idea!" i saw maia running and taking a hold of cierra's arm. "jeff i'm so so sorry about this, i'm going to take cierra back to our hostel and get her sober and she will explain and apologise to you and the rest of the group." i pulled maia in for a hug.
"be safe you two please." i replied, to which she nodded and dragged cierra behind her, who was still calling for me. the entire group was silent for a bit before corinna spoke up.
"okay todd at least admit i'm not that bad of an ex." everyone except alyssa laughed as he rolled his eyes and nodded, replying with 'fine.' david yelled that we really needed to leave now, so we did and i held onto alyssa's hand tightly in silence. once we were in the bus i pulled her onto my lap and she wrapped her arms around my neck. everyone else was having their own conversations
"lis, baby, i'm so sorry that she did that at first she was talking about meeting some friends an-" she cut me off.
"let me sleep for a bit, we'll talk at the house." i nodded and she wriggled herself into a more comfortable position, with her head tucked in the crook of my neck. i bent my head to kiss her forehead lightly before taking up a conversation with david in front of me. we got to the airbnb after a while and alyssa and i were sat outside on a small hammock we found.
"that's going to be all over different news shit now won't it?" alyssa broke our small silence. i nodded and pulled her into me.
"it will but don't worry about it. however they twist it, we know the truth and david recorded everything so we can always post it as an evidence later if we have to address it on a video. he also agreed not to post it unless you were comfortable with it but to be honest he thinks it won't fit in the main channel vlog."
"i just got so angry i couldn't even think properly. by the way who was the other girl? the one that hugged you then took her away?"
"maia, she was one of my girl bestfriends when i moved to LA. don't worry, she's been dating another friend of mine, rudy, for about 4 years now." alyssa nodded then smiled up at me.
"thank you, for everything. and i'm sorry i ran off on you earlier and disappeared for ages. daisy and i found some old friends and we were just having fun but then we couldn't find you guys."
"i'll admit i was worried and so was david but we realised we should trust you guys." i instantly thought about me holding charlotte and decided it would be hes is aly heard from me that i had done it rather than seeing dave's photo later.
"aly i should tell you though... i had charlotte d'alessio on my shoulders so she could take some 'aesthetic' pics whilst you were gone. she said i'm not in the phots she took but david and natalie took a photo of themselves and i know i'm in the background so i figured it was best i tell you just in case." she looked at me angrily before bursting into laughter.
"i don't mind, i quite like her. she was very nice when we met on the first day at zedd's show. but tell me she was the only one?"
"dave and i had todd and scott helping keep girls away just in case you two came back." we smiled before aly grabbed my face and pulled me into a kiss. i head the back door open and david's voice rang out.
"lovebirds! get inside we're having a meeting!" we rolled our eyes before heading in.
the meeting consisted of tomorrow's plans, which was a free day to pack then party before we headed off to LA the day after. we also had to finalise any merch shoots which i had totally forgotten about. by this point it was about 2:15am so we decided to get some rest as we needed to be up by 9am so we had time to do everything before starting the party at 8pm. aly and i climbed into bed and we whispered a bit about random stuff before she dozed off in her usual position, head on my chest. i too fell asleep afterwards.
