It's tour day. Andy and I haven't talked or seen each other since that night. He said we would talk the next morning but he wasn't there when I woke up. I tried texting him and calling him but he ignore them all and I think he blocked me too as my calls wouldn't go through.

"Okay, Andy is the last one we're waiting on.." Sebastian mumbled as he checks his phone when he walks inside. "Rem, can you call him? Or Jake? Someone?"

"He blocked me...I think.."

Jake scrunched his eyebrows. "Andy? He blocked you? You're our manager?"

I shrug and look down. I felt my heart crumble into pieces. I'm the manager and yet I'm the one being blocked. I'm the manager and yet I fell for someone I'm not supposed to.

"He said he will be here soon. His boyfriend was running late...Wait hold on. Did Andy get back together with Zack?"

I look up and look at Jake. "Who?"

"Zack. The guy Andy was dating a few weeks ago? The one that was fucking with him the day we signed the contract?"

My heart broke more as I run to my room. I cry as I sit on my bed and pull at my hair. He never cared about me? Did he!? He's a piece of shit! A lying piece of shit!

After a few minutes, I get a text from Emerson that we were leaving. I wiped my eyes and walked downstairs. I go outside and see Andy and some guy hugging. Andy's eyes met mine as I froze but I look away quickly as he pulls away from the hug.

"This...is Remington. My manager." Andy spoke which caused my head to go back up.

"Oh! Nice to meet you! I'm Zack, Andy's boyfriend." Zack spoke with a small smile and held his hand out for me to shake. I shake his hand and nod.

"Nice to meet you too...Andy finish up here and let's go."

Andy looked at me and then looked back at Zack. I walked away and then heard my name being called out from down my driveway. I tilt my head as I see Josh. A part of me was upset and not wanting to deal with it but the other part of me was willing to give Josh what he wanted.

"Remington! Thank god I got here in time. I wanted to say something before you left."

Andy turned and stared. He didn't move and I knew it was because Zack was also watching us and if he made any sudden movements towards us, Zack would question it.

"What is it?"

"I just...I wanted to say I'm sorry." He whispered as he gets closer. "I never meant to hurt you. I miss you, I swear on every part of my being that I do. I don't know what got into me that day. I was drunk and it just kept happening...I'm sorry Remi, you know I'd never hurt you like that." He whispered as he moved a piece of my hair behind my ear and for some reason, I leaned into his touch.

"Yeah...okay. I'll give you one last chance. Don't fuck this up." I whispered back.

Everyone was just watching us, trying to figure out if they needed to step in but the second I noticed Andy glaring at Josh's hand on my face, I took it as the opportunity to pull Josh into a kiss.

You could hear Andy scoff and turn around. I pulled away from Josh and smile as he kisses my nose.

"I promise to do better. So much better."

I nod and hug him before telling him goodbye and walking onto the bus. When I got on my brothers pulled me into the back and we squeezed into the bathroom for them to talk to me.

"What the actual fuck was that? You are not going to be getting back with Josh. After he fucking cheated too? Fuck no."

"Seb calm down. He said he was sorry. Plus! We've been together long before that even happened, we can make this work. I know we can."

"It's your fault if he fucks you up big time. We won't help you with that either."

"Yeah yeah. I got that already."

Sebastian left and Emerson sighed. "I support your decisions but don't ruin yourself because of Andy's stupid behavior. I know it hurt you when he was gone, trust me. I saw you at your lowest and when Andy ghosted you, it was almost identical to that but he is just some stupid boy and-"

"But he's not just some stupid boy em! He...I don't know but I have this feeling, this magnetic feeling to be closer with him and that I need him in my life. Ever since I saw him for the first time surrounded by people in the lobby of my workplace. I just, I don't know what to do."

"Okay...I...just know I support you and your decision. Just don't be stupid about this and think it through some more before you have sex with him again."

I roll my eyes and look away from Emerson. He sighs and leaves the bathroom. I follow after a few seconds later and sit on the couch. The bus was going to be taken to Europe on a boat and we would be able to get it when we a few days after we arrive at the first destination so they were going to drop us off at the airport in the tour bus. It was going to draw a lot of attention but at this point, my band was used to it.

"What the actual fuck Remington! He fucking-"

"You don't get to criticize my decisions! You ghosted me! You- just forget it. I'm your manager and you blocked my number. Unblock it."

"I didn't block your number." Andy spoke.

"No? So why did you stop answering me? Why would my calls go to voicemail the second I called it?"

"I just turned my phone on do not disturb. Look, I'm going through shit okay? Don't get upset with me right now."

"Don't get upset with you? Are you serious right now!? I am your fucking manager and if I was to have a really serious fucking issue to talk to you about and you didn't answer, what do you think would have happened!? I would have lost my job for not 'communicating' with the band! You are their frontman! You are the one who is supposed to do the thinking! They can't do shit unless it goes through you and you agree! So fucking answer your phone next time! I'm done being that nice and sweet manager! I'm done being the understanding piece of garbage you walked all over! I'm not going to let you fuck up my job for some stupid idea you had!"

By this point, everyone walked into the living room and stared as us.

"You couldn't even have the audacity to fucking answer me when I needed to know where you were! You fucking piece of shit! I hope you have fun with your boyfriend! Be glad I'm not in a company who makes their people break up with their partner in order for them to be signed! Be glad I don't make you do that!"

I could feel my eyes start to tear up and I push past everyone as I walk to my bunk. I get inside and close the curtain, crying myself to sleep.

After a little while, I'm woken up by Emerson. We were at the airport and my heart sank. I had to sit with Andy on the plane.

We got out of the bus and were immediately swarmed with fans and security to make sure we got inside safely. We walked inside and go to check in. After an hour of waiting and getting checked in, we got to our waiting area to sit down.

"Just to be sure, everyone has their passports and tickets with them right? Everything?"

Everyone just put them up for me to see and I sat back down. Jake looked at me and then looked down and bit his lip.

"Hey, Remington? Can I go get something to eat before we start boarding?"

"I don't care, just be back soon alright?"

He nods and takes Jeremy with him. I sigh and look at my phone to see a text from Josh. I open it and smile when I see a good luck message with hearts. I type a quick thank you and I love you before putting my phone away.

"I'm going to the bathroom, anyone else need to go?" I ask as I stand up and wait. After a few seconds, Andy stands up and follows me.

I mentally curse and walk to the bathroom quickly, not waiting for Andy to catch up. Once we get to the bathroom, I ignore Andy and stand at one of the urinals. I do what I need and then go to wash my hands. Andy finished using the bathroom and then washed his hands too. As I was about to leave, he grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

I cringed at the feeling of his wet hands touch my hoodie.

"Wait, we need to talk."

I looked at Andy and then my phone to see the time. we didn't board the plane for another 30 minutes so I nod and agree to talk to Andy.

"Look, I know I fucked up...I.."

I feel tears fill my eyes as I shake my head and sniffle. "What...did I do wrong..? I don't understand. Why did you leave? You said you would talk to me in the morning and then you left before I woke up. You left at 12 in the morning."

"Listen, Zack called me that night...he said he wanted to talk to me. He said something happened so I left your room so I wouldn't wake you up and so we talked in the hallway, on FaceTime. Your brother walked out and when he heard Zack say he wanted me back and that he still loved me, he slammed the door. Zack was confused and I told him I would talk to him later but he asked me to go to his house, that he would give me my stuff back and whatever and I believed him...he had everything packed when I got there but then...he kissed me...and one thing led to another and we just, I couldn't leave him after it...I felt bad and I just stayed..."

I laughed as tears fell from my eyes. "Couldn't leave him like you left me? If I didn't push you off of me, we would have went farther than just kissing. Would you have left me then?"

"Remington, don't cry...I...we didn't get far-"

"Don't...don't tell me not to cry."

He sighed and walked up to me. He pulled my body closer to his and wiped my eyes. "Look, I do care about you, but he...I can't help but go back to him...god my heart hurt the second I went to his house. I know I fucked up when things went farther with Zack and I couldn't get you out of my head but I've been with him since middle school..."

I push him back slightly and shake my head as I look him over. "It's fine, I'm with Josh again and everything's okay."

"He hurt you Remington...he bit your lip because he didn't want to hear you say you broke up with him."

"Okay? I can make my own decisions. Your boyfriend hurt you too and yet you fucked him. At least I didn't fuck Josh."

"Remington, don't do this right now.."

"What? It's true. You just fucked him after you were in bed with me. You made out with me and then boom, not even 3 hours later, you're in his bed, fucking."

"Okay, just. Whatever. I'm done. I tried to make it up to you-"

"Make it up to me? By telling me you still think of me? That you still care about me? You are dating someone Andrew! You are literally walking around with fucking hickeys on your neck from him! You didn't think I noticed? You had a hoodie on that covered them but the second you pulled me close to you, I noticed them. Don't do that."

He looked down and let go of me completely. I wiped my eyes as more tears fell. I had makeup on and I know for a fact most of it was probably smudged. I looked at myself in the mirror and sighed. I grabbed a paper towel and put water on it as I cleaned my makeup.

"Look, I don't know why my heart aches every time I think of you. There is a force that makes me want to go to you...I don't know but this...this fucked me up."

He sighed and I heard a sniffle come from him. I look at Andy and pull him close to me. I hug him and rub his back slightly.

"I'm so sorry Remington, I don't know what to do.." he cried as he pulled away from me and looked at me in my eyes. I could tell he was thinking of something but I couldn't tell what. "I'm going to fuck up again..."

I tilt my head and look at Andy as he leans down and kisses me. I was shocked but I didn't want to pull away. I knew this was bad but I didn't care, I pull him closer and feel him pull my body more, squeezing me close.

I pull away when I felt my phone ring. I look at the time and realize the plane was about to board. I look at the caller and see Emerson's name. I let go of Andy and picked up the call.

"Rem, hurry up with your shit. We have to board soon."

I laughed. "I didn't shit, jeez. I'm going back."

Emerson laughed and then hung up. I look at Andy and then instantly felt bad.

"Fuck...we just...you're dating someone...I'm dating someone...oh fuck..."

"Hey...we just...this won't happen again. Don't worry about it...we fucked up. It won't happen again."

"What am I supposed to tell Josh..? I can't lie to him."

"He lied to you and got a girl pregnant. The worse you did was kiss a guy."

"And you? What are you going to tell Zack?"

"I'm going to break up with him...I'll be honest about it but kissing you made me realize how stupid I was to date someone who was controlling anyway."

"Was I stupid to get back with Josh..?"

"Yeah, but look, it's okay. We all make stupid decisions. I'm not telling you to break up with him but all I'm saying is that, I'm here. And I'll wait for as long as you need."

I nod and look down.

"I'm going to talk to josh too. I'll break up with him too."

Andy nods and kisses me again but it was quick as I got another text from Emerson saying to hurry up. We both left and walked back to the group, everyone got up when they saw us and we walked to the to the gate, Andy grabbed his bags and then walked side by side with me.

As we boarded the plane, we got into our seats. We got first class in one of those private suites things but they only had five in the plane so we were going to share them. The seating arrangements were Andy and I, Emerson and Lonny, CC and Sebastian, Jake and Jinxx, and then our bass and second guitarist.

When we got into the seats, we waited for take off before we put on a movie. Andy put his hand in my thigh and caressed it softly as he used the wifi to text Zack. I didn't pay much attention but I could tell how much stress he was in as he removed his hand and sent more texts.

"I'll be back."

I nod and watch as Andy got up without looking at me and left to the bathroom. I payed attention to the movie and yawned as I start to get tired. I stood up and pulled my chair out so it was in a bed position. I sat back down and curled into a ball and started falling asleep. After a few minutes, I feel someone move the chair next to me and then lay down.

"Hey..." Andy spoke as I felt him put his hand on my cheek. I open my eyes and see him look at me with a small smile. I smile and closed my eyes again.

"Hey." I spoke back and shiver as the air blew at me.

"Cold?"

"Mhm...it's okay though. What happened?"

Andy moved and turned off the air. I feel a blanket being placed on me and then Andy laying down next to me. He put his hand on my cheek and kissed my nose softly.

"We broke up. I was honest about everything...he tired to get me to stay, even though he knew I kissed you. He even offered to share me which was weird but I declined. I'm fully committed to just wooing you over." He laughed.

I giggled and cuddled into Andy. "You already did." I whisper and kiss his cheek. "Josh is at the gym or else I would have texted him too."

"He doesn't check his phone at the gym?"

"No. He ignores everything when he's there."

Andy nods as we both laid in each other's arms. We ended up falling asleep but and waking as we landed. Once we got off the plane, I didn't bother checking my phone until we got to our first Airbnb.

I went straight to sleep in the room while everyone helped take stuff out the rental car we had. We were in England so everyone was going to explore but not me. I wanted to sleep.

When I woke up though, maybe 2 hours later, i notice Andy was sound asleep next to me. I smile and check my phone. I was about to call Josh when I notice a message from him saying to ignore everything that was recently posted.

I go to Instagram and the first thing I see are photos of Josh and the girl he got pregnant. There are photos of them walking around LA and a few of them at a restaurant. You could tell Josh was trying to hide his face but his tattoos were a dead giveaway.

I call Josh and wait for him to answer.

"Hey babe, you in London?" Josh whispers while moving around.

"So you just want to be with me to what? Fuck with me? I knew I shouldn't have trusted you, but of course! I didn't listen myself or my brothers! Of course I went back to you. Just so we are completely honest with each other right now, well at least so I'm honest with you because that's how a relationship should be, I kissed Andy and god did I love it. And we, are breaking up."

I hung up and threw my phone on the bed as I controlled my breathing and laid back down on the bed. Andy put his arm around me and pulled me into his chest. He kissed my cheek and sighed.

"I'm sorry about everything, it's okay though. I'm here with you." Andy muttered and kissed my nose again. "Just sleep, everyone else is out partying."

"Okay.." and with that, I just fell asleep in Andy's arms.
