NINE: confession.

Start from the beginning
                                    

"What are you saying?" Chris asked.

"I always defend my friends and right now this girl is acting like a dumb bitch and I'm not gonna stand for that" Nick stated.

Chris looked over and watched Nick type. Nicholas Sturniolo:, what the hell is wrong with you? Ameila would never. The fact that you are actually saying this out loud disgusts me. Ameila just got shot and is in the hospital and your saying it's all her fault and to free a man who attempted to murder someone and cause danger to everyone at the tour including me and my friends? You are sick. Take this shit down." Then he scrolled and turned his phone off. "I'm just sick of these 'fans'" he said with air quotes. "What'd you come in here to talk with me about?"

"I need advice. Do you think....Ameila likes me?" Chris asked.

"Well do you like her?" Nick asked.

Chris sighed. "You don't answer a question with another question. Of course I like Ameila. I've always liked her. She just....I assumed she was playing hard to get at first before I realized she doesn't like me." Chris said in a sigh of disappointment.

Nick chuckled. "Sorry it's just...Ameila has loved you for years"

"How do you know?" Chris asked.

"Cause she told me. She said it in a joking manner but I could tell she was serious. I think you'd guys be cute together. She makes you happy, doesn't she?" Chris nodded. "Then there you go. Tell her"

"I can't just tell her. I'm not good at these types of things." Chris said, stressing.

"You like her, and she likes you. The next step is to confirm those feelings by telling her. I don't know what else you expect" Nick said with a shrug. "Look, I'm sure it won't be that bad."

Chris sighed. "Telling her....okay....I can do that." Chris said with a nod.

He called a cab to the hospital since Matt was busy editing their last Friday video that's now a few hours late because of all the drama happening in the triplets lives at the moment.

When he arrived, he smiled. He was totally prepared to say how he feels. Which was shocking. Chris would normally chicken out. He wasn't fond of speaking his feelings very well. He just expected the girl to come to him. But now, at this moment, he needed answers.

But suddenly, he heard arguing in Ameila's room. He stopped to overhear some of it, but being cautious. He wanted to know if Ameila could handle this on her own, or if he needed to step in.

Ameila sounded filled with fury. "Get out! I don't want you here! How do you have the audacity to come here after everything you did to me?" Ameila said. "If you don't leave I'm calling the nurse to escort you out"

"Just....listen to me please" The voice was a guy. "I'm sorry for everything I did to you all those years ago. But I'm better now. And I never stopped loving you"

"Well I did" Ameila said, and Chris could just see her smirk on her lips.

"Look, I said I'm sorry"

"Let go of me Joe" Ameila warned, but Chris could tell she was scared deep down.

Chris decided it was time to step in before things escalated. "Oh, who's this?" Chris said, trying to act surprised.

"Oh, this is....Joe....my ex boyfriend" Ameila said.

Joe turned to Chris and shook his hand. His firm was strong, Chris was shocked. "And you are?"
