| Brian and Howie walked back in the studio to see Kevin, AJ, and Nick standing around. �You alright?� asked Kevin. �Yeah, think so.� AJ walked up to Howie. �I�m sorry bro.� �No, I am. I didn�t mean it.� He hugged AJ. �Look, nothing happened. I was kidding.� �Nothing happened?� �Nope.� �But I saw you kiss her.� �You did?� Howie nodded. �So you didn�t see the rest?� Howie shook his head. �She didn�t kiss back. She�s an amazing girl, but her heart was in it. She was somewhere else.� Howie smiled. �Well guys, Howie has an announcement to make.� Brian smiled. �Spill it, D,� Kevin looked on eagerly. �I�m in love,� Howie breathed. �Well, it�s about damn time,� Kevin sat back and smiled. �You know?� �Come on, we could see it all over your face,� said Nick. �Congrats man, I�m really happy for ya,� AJ put his hand on Howie�s shoulder. �Oh boy,� Howie fell back into his seat. �I�m feeling sick again.� �Why?� AJ kneeled down to his level. �Cause what if she doesn�t feel the same way?� �Of course she will.� �I don�t want to ruin a good thing. It took her a lot to even speak to me again. What makes you think that she loves me back?� �You�re gonna have to tell her and find out,� said Kevin. �And fuck up everything I have been through if she says no. I can�t take that rejection. I just can�t.� �Then you have to make a decision.� Brian crossed his arms. �Either you tell her how you feel and risk it. Or, you keep it inside and you can still be friends, but,� Brian knelt next to him. �You could be missing out on the love of your life.� Howie sighed. �I will� tonight. I�ll tell her the truth.� �You go boy!� Nick punched his arm. �Well, all that aside,� Kevin stood up. �We have a song to record.� Chapter 14 Contents Chapter 12 |
