Chapter 18

                                    

                                          
Matt's POV 
                          
I was really worried about Jess, she was so scared of Hayes in the tour bus today and wouldn't tell me why. I heard yelling before she hid in my bunk, but they never fought before. So it couldn't have been them. Right?
                          
Jess's POV 
                          
Once we got to the hotel and the bus parked I waited for everyone to get off until I got my bags. I was hoping not to run into Hayes. I know he probably didn't mean it but he could've controlled his anger. I ended up running up the stairs because Hayes tried to talk to me. I'm glad we aren't sharing a room. I'm sharing with my two best friends Lizzie and Matt. I decided I would explain everything to Matt while I had the chance. I knew Hayes wouldn't come in this room as long as Matt was in here. Matt is like my overprotective brother, I love him to death. And that's why I need to tell him. 
                          
~1 Hour Later~
                          
I heard a knock on the door so I went over to look in the peephole. Lucky for me Hayes wasn't there so I wouldn't need to talk to him, instead it was Matt. 
                          
"Hey Matt." I smiled 
                          
"Hey Jess." Matt sat on my bed and looked at me. 
                          
"We need to talk about what happened on the tour bus." Matt said in all seriousness. It's really hard to take him serious though. He is rarely serious and always goofing around. 
                          
"Oh that..." I trailed off looking away. 
                          
"Yeah that. Why were you so scared of him?"
                          
"I told him I won't be going back to North Carolina and that my moms job got relocated to Indiana. In result he blew up and he has never done that before so I got scared so I came running for you." I looked down at my fingers just messing around with them not looking up. 
                          
"Jess I'm so sorry." Matt frowned and gave me a hug. 
                          
Out of nowhere I started crying. Just thinking about mine and Hayes's relationship coming to an end wasn't a good thought. 
                          
"Are you gonna tell Liz?"
                          
"Yeah I told her about me moving and she is most likely gonna end up living with me but the Hayes thing, yeah I haven't told her yet. Would you mind telling her for me?" I used my puppy dog face and he finally said a simple yes. 
                          
All the guys went out to a laser tag place while Matt, Lizzie, and I stayed at the hotel and recorded some YouTube videos. It was so much fun! We did the chubby bunny challenge and the cotton ball challenge. I don't think I have smiled at all this past week but hanging with my two best friends in the whole wide world makes me forget about my problems. 
                          
Hey! So now this book has 3k reads!! Wow. It happened so quickly! I started this book a little over a month ago and wrote this for my friend who loves Hayes. It only took ten days into my book for me to get 1k now we are a month in and I'm at 3k. I can't explain my emotions. But thank you all it means so much. 😊😘
                          
Stay Beautiful 💘
