Chapter 14
After the 19th question, my heart
was racing as he asked me the next question.
I swear I was about to grab him and kiss
him then and there.
Everything
he said was so sweet and kind it just, ugh!
I was about to make my move...when
Howie
bursts through the door and jumps up and down.
"We gotta go
out in 5 minutes Nick!
Come on!" He said catching his breath.
"I
gotta go Ash, if you want to watch there is a t.v.
set in our room okay?"
He said as he was
grabbing his stuff.
"Yeah okay. Have fun!"
I said smiling.
He kissed me a few times as he ran out the door.
He came
back in a kissed me one
more time and ran down the hall.
I sighed as
I walked back to the guys room and saw
Wendy sitting watching the t.v. as the
guys
came onto the stage.
"Hey, have you heard from Leslie?"
I asked
as I sat down.
"Yeah, want me to call her and see what's
up?
Brian seemed kinda off balance a few minutes
ago." She said taking
out her cell phone from her purse.
"Yeah, maybe something happened between
them."
Wendy's Phone Call To Leslie...
"Maybe. Hey
Les!"
"Hey Wendy, having fun?" She said, as I knew
she
had been crying.
"Les what happened?" She asked me,
her voice
with concern.
"Brian called me a few minutes ago and we
were just
having a normal conversation and I
said it! And he just pauses and I hung up
on him! I
hung up Dammit! How could I be so stupid!" I said real
fast
since I knew she wouldn't be able to understand.
"Whoa? Wait, hold up
what did you say?"
"I asked if he liked me, and he said maybe why?
And I freaked! I mean what if I said I was deeply in
love with him? What
if I said I just wanted to tease
him about liking me? So I hung up on him when
he
asked me why." I brushed the tissues under
my eyes taking away the
tears as I watched
him on live t.v.
He wore the Kentucky hat that I loved
to see
him wear.
And he wore a white wifebeater with khaki pants
he
was just so damn adorable! UGH!
"Why did you have to do that? Leslie,
do you want
Ashley and I to talk to him for you?"
"No! What
if he says he hates me! I
would never be able to face him!"
"Why
would he say that. When you asked if
he liked you he said maybe didn't he?"
"Yeah.
But he could have said that just out of
sympathy."
"What?"
"Well
he could!"
"You crazy!"
"Shut up!"
"Well
we gotta watch the concert, and then we're going
to talk to him k bye!"
She hung up on me! Oh God she
was going to go talk to him about it! I sighed
as I
watched Brian sing on the t.v. I wish he
could understand…
After
The Concert...
After the concert, Ashley and I were
ready to talk
some sense into Brian.
He was a cutie I had to admit, but not as
cute
as A.J. Oh back to Leslie's situation!
When the guys came through the doors,
their towels
and water bottles with them, we congratulated them on
a job
well done as we took Brian to the
connected room.
"Brian, we want
to talk to you about Leslie," I said as
I pushed him down on the chair.
He was wiping his sweat with his nasty
towel.
"What about
Leslie?" He asked breathing a little hard.
"What do you mean what
about? Leslie you
twit!" Ashley said sitting on the arm of the chair.
"What?"
He looked puzzled at Ashley.
Her anger was building for Leslie, I could see
it.
"Brian, we know ya like her," I sighed as I sat
on the other
arm.
"No I don't. What are you talking about?" He
said drinking
some water.
"I know for a fact that you love her," Ashley said
as
we both looked at her shocked. Wow, love?
"No I'm not! What the hell
are you talking
about? We're just friends, that's all we'll ever be."
"No
you won't, you love her. That day
when she was at the fashion show? I saw
you,
you love her."
"Anything I feel for her is none of your business
anyway. So I don't have to listen to
this," Brian started getting up.
"She
loves you Brian," I said standing up. He stood,
his back facing Ashley and
I as we waited
for his response.
"We're just friends. That's all
it can be,
that's all it should be," Brian said shutting the door.
"He's
lying," Ashley said. I nodded as we
laughed a little.
"He shouldn't
stay in denial, especially
since they're only here for 2 more days." I said.
"Does
she know that?" Ashley asked curiously.
"Nope. I don't think anyone
wants
to," I said as we walked out the door.
