| Jessie sighed contentedly in the arms of JC, staring at the movie playing on the screen. RING! Everyone jumped at the sudden shrill noise of the cell phone ringing. �Who�s is that?� Chris asked. �Not mine,� Lance said. �Mine doesn�t sound like that.� �Neither does mine,� everyone grumbled. RING! �Oh it�s mine,� Jessie said, answering her phone. �Hello?� Her smile turned upside down very fast. �What�s wrong?� The guys glanced at each other. �Oh my god,� she murmured. �Are you serious? Oh sorry� Are you sure? Hang on.� She put the speaker against her shoulder and asked, �Can Heather come on tour?� �Why?� Joey asked. �She didn�t come before.� �Something came up,� she said in such a way that no one asked any more questions. �Um, sure,� Lance agreed. �Heather? You can come� It�s no problem. Sure. You�ll be here tomorrow sweetie. Don�t worry� No, I think you can make it through ONE day,� she assured her. �It�s no problem Heather. Just hang in tight ok? You�ll be fine. Ok. Bye.� �What was that all about?� Justin asked. �She broke up with Nick.� �And?� �She loved him,� she said coldly. �And if you don�t know what it feels like, then don�t say anything.� Justin stayed silent, although he probably knew how awful she must�ve been feeling. �Why did he break up with her?� Lance asked. �The last time I saw them, they were happy together, right?� Jessie shrugged. �I know Nick loves her�but this doesn�t seem to prove true.� �And she wants to come here?� Chris asked. �Yeah.� �Well she�s welcome,� JC said. �Any friend of yours is a friend to all of us.� �Thanks.� *** She looked around the room. There was no one there. She exhaled in relief. She scribbled on a piece of paper with her purple pen. Dear All~ I�m so sorry, but I can�t stay. I don�t belong here. I need my time alone for a while. This is too much for me to take, so I�m leaving. Don�t worry, I�ll be safe where I�m going. Brian~ You know I love you. I�ll see you soon. Howie~ You know I�ll see your Spanish butt sooner or later. Kevin~ I won�t forget you and your sense of responsibility. AJ~ I love you Big Brother. Nick~ Forget it. But I love you all the same. Goodbye� Heather She wiped the tears from her eyes and left the note on the head of her bed. She made sure the cleaners had already come so they wouldn�t throw it away. With the suitcases in her hands, she headed to the elevator and went to the lobby. She had told their bodyguards that she was leaving, and they promised that they would keep her secret. Nobody looked at her twice as she breezed by them, hopping into the limo that JC arranged for her. She deeply regretted Nick�s decision, but it was his life, not hers. Since the guys were at a sound check, she was safe and ready to go. The chauffer smiled, �Don�t worry. Your friends are waiting for you.� Heather smiled slightly at the man�s kind words. �At least SOMEBODY loves me.� *** �Ok. When she gets here, you�re going to be nice to her, got it?� she questioned. He nodded, making his curls bounce. She smiled. �Good.� �Jessie?� She turned around. �Hey.� She gave him a kiss. �What�s up?� �She�s getting here in a short while.� Jessie took a breath and sighed. �I can�t wait to find out what�s wrong with her.� *** �Finally,� AJ grumbled, unlocking the door. �I thought I�d never get outta there.� He opened the door and stepped inside, but stopped. The right side was empty. �Where�d her stuff go?� he asked himself. He went into the bathroom and saw that all her makeup had gone too. �What the heck?� AJ went back out into the room and a flash of white caught his eye from the deep blue sheets. He snatched up the piece of paper quickly. His eyes scanned the note, and he grew panicked. �Oh my god.� AJ ran into the next room with the note clutched in his shaking hand. �Guys,� he cried. Howie and Nick looked up. �What?� �Get Kevin and Brian.� Howie called them up and they came into the room. �What�s so important?� Kevin asked. �It�s about Heather.� Nick looked up. �What?� �She�s gone.� |
