Chapter XIV

                                    

                                          
Stacie's POV
                          
After what could have possibly been described as the worst day of our lives, we all headed back to the hotel where Aubrey pretty much dragged me into her room and ripped my dress off me. I didn't hesitate to rip hers off either and we ended up having sex for a good few hours and Aubrey was definitely right when she said things would be different. She was angry, upset, annoyed, and frustrated and I got all of it in bed and it was awesome. It was possibly the best sex of my life and by the end of it I was so tired I ended up falling asleep next to Aubrey and waking up with her in my arms but I quickly left her room before anyone caught on that we were sneaking around.
                          
However, the tour quickly picked up and we started to perform quite well together. The soldiers loved our performances and it felt good to be on stage like that. It got me thinking about why I never took up singing earlier in my life. I guess I was just too busy with other things that I never had time to think about it. After every performance, Aubrey and I would sneak into one another's room and relieve our stress and it was amazing every time. One time, Aubrey forgot one of her lines but I quickly jumped in and saved her and no one thought anything of it. I was later rewarded that night when she told me to come to her room, which I did hastily. When I got there, she sat me down on a chair, pulled off her robe, revealing a black lace bra set with suspenders, then gave me a lap dance. I felt like I was going to pass out but I didn't, thankfully, because what came after was incredible.
                          
It's now the final week of our six-week tour and we had just arrived in France - the city of love people dub it. I roll my eyes on the matter but after everything with Aubrey, I can't help but feel a little differently. I've never been one to hook up with someone like I have Aubrey and I certainly have never been one to catch feelings for someone and now I have. I tried to deny it when the thought first popped into my head but no matter how hard I tried to avoid it, it made me realise that I DO, in fact, have feelings for Aubrey. She's such a beautiful woman on the inside and out and I want more than just sex with her. I want to do all of that cheesy shit with her like go on dates and take long walks on the beach as we watch the sunset. I want her to be my girlfriend.
                          
I can't believe I feel that way towards her but I do. Whenever I'm around her I feel so alive and I feel good about myself. I feel... whole. She makes me smile and laugh and all I want to do is be around her, and when I'm not with her... I feel sad and... alone. It's a feeling that I've always tried to avoid but I can't with Aubrey. She makes me feel things that I've never felt before and I can't do anything about it. I hate myself for falling for her but what can I do? Once you get the feels you're a goner!
                          
Right now, we're walking through our fancy new hotel, taking in the incredible design and the stunning views out the window. Speaking of which, Aubrey is standing next to the window, looking out at the ocean. She looks beautiful. She's in dark jeans, boots, a red shirt, and a leather jacket with her hair down and wavy. I take in her beauty before I walk over to her.
                          
Once I get closer, I realise that she's not taking in the view, but she's looking out the window with sadness in her eyes and it tugs on my heart.
                          
"Hey, are you okay?" I ask.
                          
"Yeah, I'm fine," she forces a smile.
                          
"Hey, you can't hide your feelings from me, Aubrey. I know you well enough now to know when you're not okay."
                          
Aubrey forces another smile then sighs. "Well, to be totally honest, my dad was supposed to come and see us perform tomorrow and he can't make it. He's actually never heard me sing and now maybe he never will."
                          
I can see that she's hurting and it crushes me. Aubrey had been talking about how excited she was for her dad to come and watch her. I mean, this whole thing was for her dad to come and watch her and now he can't come. I'm not that close with my dad but I know I'd be upset, too, if I found out that he couldn't make it to something I wanted him to come to.
