The Unwanted Payne

Parents & Problems

"I'll have the cacciucco." Rachel ordered then handed the waiter her menu.
"I want the carbonara, please." Naomi ordered and gave him her menu.
"I'll go classic and just have spaghetti and meatballs." George (Dad) said and give away his menu.
"The osso buco looks delicious, I'll have that." Kacy (Mom) ordered and handed him her menu.
"I'll have minestrone soup, please." I said as I gave him the menu.
"Sure thing Babe." the waiter said with a wink.
"I want linguine with clam sauce." Leo said as he shoved his menu into the guy and glared. The guy walked away while mumbled something under his breath. I laughed a little and shook my head. I sipped my ice tea and thought of the past month with the boys and smiled.
"Triny look at this!" Lee laughed as he showed me his phone. There was a picture Lane sent of Renny and Harry holding hands and kissing while in the parking garage.
"I wonder if they'll ever admit they're dating." I said with a laugh.
"What?" Kacy asked.
"Hank and Trinity's friend Renée are dating but won't admit it." Naomi said.
"Oh Hanley! He's so silly!" Kacy sighed.
"Yeah." Everyone agreed.
"Trin, are you coming on our week and a half tour around the country?" Lee asked.
"Isn't that starting tomorrow?" Rachel asked.
"Yeah, I'm sorry its last minute." Leo said as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"It's okay Lee, but I can't. Rachel and I have tests on Tuesday." I said and she nodded.
"Okay, the guys will be upset though..... Lane is gonna be very dramatic." Leo said with a laugh and I smiled.

-All American Girl played-

"Oops! That's my phone!" I said as I rushed to grab my phone from my purse. "I think Lane had us bugged." I mumbled as I stared at my phone. Everyone looked confused. I answered it and said "Hey Lane!" and they all laughed.
"Look at the doors!" Lane shouted. I looked up and frowned.
"What are you guys doing here?" I whined. I was looking at all the guys who were waving manically at us.
"Nash got hungry for Italian and this was the closest place." Lane said. I shook my head while smiling. Our waiter put the boys at a table next to ours.
"Hello boys!" George said. We all exchanged hellos, then the waiter took their orders.
"Why is Lane's ring tone All American Girl?" Naomi asked and Lane feigned hurt.
"It's my default ring tone, I only have a set ring tone for Mom, Annabeth and Keith."
"Who?" Nash asked.
"A friend, he took my phone and changed it to Tattoos On This Town by Jason Aldean."
"Gimme your phone!" Hank said like a little kid. I laughed and handed over my phone. He tapped on my iPhone for a few minutes before our food came. My phone was passed around to everyone, all of them had set their own ring tone. When it finally got back to me, I was almost done with my soup. I shook my head and sighed.

"Are you sure you don't want me to stay with you?" Rachel asked we pulled up at the apartment building.
"Nah, I haven't been alone in weeks." I laughed and opened the door. Rachel smiled and I got out then waved goodbye. She drove away and I went up to my flat. There was a package on the doorstep, it was from Leo's Producer, but addressed to me. I grabbed it and walked inside right as the house phone rang. I walked over to it, sat the box down and looked at the number. I didn't recognize the number so I let it go to voicemail.
"Hey you've reached Leo and Trinity's flat. Sorry we can't get to the phone at the moment. So please leave your name, a reachable number and a message please. Bye!" (bold: Leo's Voice, italic: Trinity's Voice, bold and italic: Both Voices.)
"Hey Trin, it's your Momma....... I know your upset and I wish I could do something to help........ But Sweetheart, I do love you and I'm very sorry....... Goodbye Baby......." My Momma's voice rang out through the empty flat. I hadn't talked to her since before I left. I shook it off my mind and grabbed scissors. I opened the box to see 2 CDs, some books, a lot of magazines and a couple of movies. They all had one thing in common, the boys faces were plastered on all of them. At the bottom was a note.

Dear Triny,
Here's a few things that will help you get to know the guys and me. Enjoy:)
Love Leo

I smiled and sat the note down. I grabbed the books and magazines and walked to the lounge room. I turned on the TV and sat down. I pulled a blanket across my lap and started to read the first magazine which had the pages about the boys dog-eared.

-Kiss Me played-

I reached blindly for my phone in the dark. As I grabbed it, I dropped the magazine that was on my lap.
"Hello." I moaned.
"Hello Sleeping Beauty." A cheery Irish voice said.
"What time is it?"
"It's about 5:30pm." He said and I could hear screaming in the background. "We're going on in about 10 minutes and I just wanted to call to see how you are."
"I was sleeping until you called."
"Sorry Babe."
"It's okay. How's the tour so far?"
"Same old, same old." He chuckled.
"Yea I bet screaming girls that throw themselves down at your feet or actually on you is tiring." I said teasingly.
"Actually it can be when the only girl you want, isn't." Nash sighed then cursed softly to himself.
"Nash please don't do this." I whispered.
"I know Trin. You're sick, you don't have time for a boyfriend, but have you ever taken the time to consider a boyfriend might be a good idea?" He pleaded.
"How is that?"
"He could give you more of a reason to live..... I could give you more of a reason to live."
"Nash." I moaned. "Please.... I need to go."
"Okay." His voice cracked. "Good bye Trinity."
"Bye." I said and hung up my phone. I went into the kitchen and looked in the fridge. After a few moments I decided that there was nothing I wanted, so I grabbed my phone, purse and keys and left the apartment. I hailed a taxi and drove to the closest McDonald's. I ordered an a salad with a large french fry and a large drink. As I went to fill my soda I heard a girl scream.
"IT'S TRINITY HARPER!!!!" the voice said. I turned and saw three girls. The one pointing at me wore knee-high black socks, shorty shorts, a Sixty-Seven Seconds hoodie and Sixty-Seven Seconds Toms. The others were decked out in Sixty-Seven Seconds gear too and were grinning ear-to-ear.
"Oh my gawd! It so is!" the one in ripped pants and a Sixty-Seven Seconds tank said.
"Aaaaaahhhhhh... Hi?" I said questionly.
"Are the boys with you?!" the one who wore a 'Mrs. Hank Niles' tank asked.
"No. They're in Nottingham doing a concert."
"Can we take a picture with you?" the screamer asked.
"Sure." I said and they rushed forward. I sat down my still empty cup and looked at them. Mrs. Hank Niles was standing beside me with screamer on my other side. The last one was handing a camera to an older woman who looked like her mom then she ran and crouched in front of me.
"Say cheese everyone!" the woman said and we said cheese. The flash temporary blinded me and I stumbled forward to the ground.
"Oh Sweetie! Are you okay!!" the woman asked as the girls helped me.
"Yea I just need to leave. I'm sorry, bye." I said and grabbed my food then left. I went home and then went to bed.
