rainy days in la. （ a. knight ）
❝all i do is miss you; all i do is want you back.❞
Three cheers for five years. Isn't that how the saying goes? Five years was as close to forever as they were going to get it seemed. Awsten's sadness got the better of him, the doubt finally swallowing him whole, and Lia didn't know how to help him or how to make him stay. So when he told her goodbye, it was with tears in his eyes.
Two years is a long time to be without a crucial part of yourself. Awsten couldn't give his heart to someone else because he hadn't gotten it back from Lia, despite his best efforts to forget her. Lia was much the same way; how could she possibly be with someone else when she compared every other man she met to Awsten?
The solution? Invite Lia on tour with Waterparks again, for old time's sake. Stuck in close quarters again after all this time will remind both Awsten and Lia that their feelings for each other haven't died, no matter how much time has passed. But Awsten has a girlfriend now and there are still secrets between him and Lia that need to be worked out and ignoring them has gotten them nowhere fast.
