living on the edge

chapter 32: girl talk

magcon - over
"i'll see you soon, okay?" i asked taylor as we stood in the hallway of our hotel. he nodded, biting his lip to keep himself from crying.

i pulled him into a tight hug with my arms around his neck, "we're still a family, tay. just a little broken." i pulled away, giving him a small smile without my teeth.

all of us exchanged hugs with goodbyes and some tears, it was going to be hard as hell to say goodbye to these guys.

the flight back to LA was first, so cameron, nash and i stepped in the elevator so we could get to the airport on time.

all three of us waved to the rest of the guys before the door closed.

i let out a breath i realized i was holding in, "you okay?" cameron asked me. i nodded slightly and he pulled me into a hug as we went down to the lobby.

my phone began to ring, checking collar ID - "it's bart."

"answer it!" nash cheered knowing i was pissed off at bart.

"hey bart, what's new?" i teased.

"Lexee, i just wanted to say it was a pleasure having you apart of magcon. you really did put a positive feel to the group, and the fans loved you." he spoke to me.

"Yeah it definitely was the highlight of my year ... maybe you can buy yourself another group of guys with the money you took from us, just obviously more cheap and talentless people of course..."

nash and cam tried to hold in their laughs as we walked towards the front door of the hotel,

"Still mad i can see?" bart chuckled on the other side of the call.

"Just a little, i dont like to hold grudges but, yeah. have fun in the future, bart." i said before hanging up on him and sliding into our limo.

"a little harsh dont you think?" cam asked.

"please, he deserves worse." i rolled my eyes, putting on my seatbelt.

when we arrived at the airport we were bombarded by fans, yet they were crying this time.

i could feel all these girls' pain. we were their idols, a little bit of messed up idols, but we were good people. we saved some of these girls' lives. them watching our videos were the only things kept them smiling through the hard times.

it must feel like a huge part of themselves were just taken away, so abruptly and they couldn't do anything about it.
the heartbreak was noticeable in their eyes as the tears ran down their cheeks.

the same thing happened when we arrived home at our local airport, the fans were there for us. they've always been here for all of us, i just wish there was a way to repay them for that.

"can our days get any crazier?" cam sighed, rubbing his hands roughly over his face as we walked with our luggage to our separate cars.

"you probably just jinxed it." i giggled, the sound of our suitcases' wheels on the gravel parking lot.

"well, here's our car.." nash's voice trailed off within the awkward silence between all three of us.

"yeah.." cam's voice was raspy as he stopped to stand next to his door.

"m-my car is over there.." i stuttered, pointing down a couple cars to mine.

"come here." nash said, opening his arms. i quickly stepped into his grip, taking in his scent, "you know this isn't goodbye, right nash? you live ten minutes away from me." i giggled.

"seven minutes, actually." cameron shrugged sarcastically.

i smiled and walked over to cam, hugging him tightly, "i'll call you later.", he muffled into my hair.
