Tour With Me

Natalie POV

I covered my ears as Maya screamed into the receiver. I added the part about being Justin’s date to the e-mail when I went back to my bunk that night. As soon as she read the e-mail she called me, not caring what time it was there or here. What time was it here when she called, somewhere are four in the morning.

She ended up waking up Sabrina, so I had to tell them both what had happened, in the kitchen area. It was the area farthest from the bunk area. I didn’t want Justin to wake up and hear some of the things that these two were saying. I was honestly surprised that he didn’t wake up form Maya’s scream.

“You said yes right, I know you said yes,” Sabrina gushed as she bounced up and down in the booth.

“Of course she said yes,” Maya’s voice rang out of my phones receiver. “If she didn’t I’m going to show up at you guys’ next concert and personally kick her ass, so you better have said yes,”

“Someone’s in trouble,” Sabrina spoke in a sing-song voice.

“You’re damn right she is, or she will be if she—”

“Do you want to know what I said or not?” I interrupted.

Sabrina nodded her head while Maya fell silent. I knew that she was still on the phone, despite the fact that she wasn’t speaking. I also knew that there was a huge smile on her face similar to the one on Sabrina’s face. These two were two alike for comfort.

“Well!” Sabrina whispered yelled.

“Right,” I nodded, “Well since I did tell him that I would go if he answered my question you can basically count that as a yes, and Maya if you scream, I’m hanging up on you,”

“Fine, but as soon as I hang up, I’m screaming,” she spoke.

I shook my head before looking up at Sabrina. She was bouncing up and down in her seat as she continued to smile. She wanted to scream, she wanted to let out an extremely girly scream, but she knew that she couldn’t. If she did he would wake everyone up on the bus, including Justin.

“So when are you guys leaving?” Maya asked.

Once the words left her mouth Sabrina stopped bouncing. Realization seemed to have struck her. I couldn’t help but to furrow my brows. What exactly was it that she just realized.

“Wait, how are you guys going to go to the awards and be back in time for a show in another state?” Sabrina questioned.

I simply waved her question off. “We’re leaving next week,” I spoke, “Apparently we’re going to have four days off next week, so after that show we’re supposed to fly out that night. Then we have that day to simply hang out, I guess get ready, and then the next day are the awards. Then we have another day to simply hang out and if we want to fly back here. If we don’t then we still have another day before our next show,”

Sabrina’s smile soon made its way back onto her face. “Well that’s perfect, you guys are going to be up there together alone for four days, that’s so cute,” she gushed.

I smiled as I rolled my eyes. “Unless we decide to fly back,” I added.

“Why would you want to fly back?” Maya questioned.

“Don’t fly back,” Sabrina demanded.

Her voice was as demanding as it could get. I couldn’t help but become confused about why she didn’t want me to fly back. I understand that she wanted me and Justin to be alone together but there was something else in her voice. There was more behind what she was saying, than wanting me and Justin together.

“Why don’t you want me to fly back?” I questioned.

She bit her lip and looked away from me. She began to twirl her blonde, bed head, hair around her finger. She started to look anywhere but me.

“I can’t tell you,” she muttered.

“Damn, I have to go, look text me later about why she can’t tell you okay. Bye, love,” Maya spoke. The line then went dead before I could say bye to her. I quickly shook it off and focused my attention back on Sabrina.

She was still twirling her hair and chewing her bottom lip as she looked away from me. I ran my tongue across my teeth. Oh she was going to tell me, or she was at least going to tell me why she couldn’t tell me. Either way she was going to tell me something.

“Why can’t you tell me?” I questioned.

She sighed as she finally looked at me. “I can’t tell you because Justin swore me to secrecy. I couldn’t tell you if I wanted to,” she explained.

“But I can tell you that you shouldn’t be in a hurry to fly back. That way you guys can talk hang out or do whatever, without, any interruptions from anyone,” she spoke, putting emphasis on interruptions and anyone.

I furrowed my brows together as I sat there. I pursed my lips as I started to think about what she was saying or what she was implying. When have Justin and I ever been interrupted.

Honestly, there have been a few times that we have been interrupted. There was the first time we kissed when we were interrupted by Ryan, then there was Allan when we were talking, then usher interrupted him in the dressing room, then there was Allan interrupting us in the kitchen.

In fact, now that I think about it, we’ve been interrupted quite a few times. I guess I could understand why Justin wanted to be alone with me. I guess he wanted to be able to be with me without being interrupted. Though I was slightly worried about why he wanted to be alone with me. Did he want to be alone with me just so he could kiss me or did he want to be alone with me so he could talk to me like when we were texting.

“Earth to Natalie!!!” Sabrina yelled. I shook my head as I snapped out of my trance.

“Sorry about that, I was just thinking,” I spoke.

“Obviously” she giggled.

I smiled and shook my head. “So, what did you say,”

“I asked you if you were going to be okay being alone with him,” she repeated.

I furrowed my brows together. “Of course I will be, it’s not the first time I’ve been alone with him,”

“Believe me, I know that. I’m just asking, lately every time that your alone with him, you start to over think things,” she pointed out.

I blinked as I stared at her. in a way, she was right. Lately, I always start thinking about what going to happen if Justin kisses me or if I talk to him about the kiss. Every time I start thinking, I end up finding some excuse for him not to kiss him. But it was a good thing, I didn’t want things to be the same with Justin as they were with every other guy I flirted with. Justin was different, he made me feel different, and therefore shouldn’t things be different with him.

“Look I know that you’re trying to build your relationship with him and I completely understand that and I’m for that,” she spoke

“But maybe you should let whatever happens between you two happen. If you keep pushing him away without explaining to him what you’re doing, then you might lose him. Believe me, the worst thing that you could ever do is lose a guy before you even have him,”

I leaned back against the booth and looked down at my hands with a sigh. She was right, she was right in every way. I was trying to start over with Justin without telling him. not only that, but we can’t start over. The relationship that we have is to unexplainable,perfect, and weird for us to start over.

We were simply comfortable with each other at the level that we started. Our relationship didn’t even start at the friendship level, it simply made its way to it. Our relationship, started off by us going with the flow, why should I change it. I should just let whatever happens between us happen.

“So before I do something stupid,” I spoke, “Tell me exactly what you mean. That way we can be on the same page,”

I wanted to know exactly what Sabrina meant by what she said. I didn’t want to do the exact opposite of what she was saying. That would be a huge miscommunication.

Sabrina smiled one of her huge smiles at me. “If he tries to hold your hand, hug you, kiss you, then let him. I know that this may sound like I’m trying to turn you guys into friends with benefits, but I need you to just trust me with this one. I can’t tell you why, but just trust me,”

I raised my brow at her. She knew something that I didn’t. Normally, I wouldn’t go along with a plan this risky, but she knew something that I didn’t. She knew something that Justin had said, and she couldn’t tell me. As badly as I wanted to know what it was, I would have to wait until later to find out.

“So, basically you’re saying that I should just go back to being my old self around him,” I questioned. She nodded her head, a smile still plastered onto her face. I shrugged my shoulders as I smiled.

“I guess we’ll just have to wait and see if Justin goes along with this,” I spoke.

“Oh believe me he will just—”

“I know, I know, trust you” I interrupted. I continued to smile as my heart began to pound.

I would just have to wait and see if Justin takes advantage of this.
