» CHAPTER FIVE «

Brian's POV...
Oh my God, I cannot believe that just happened.  Why the hell did I just do that?  Did I really just break it off? I heard loud stomping footsteps coming from behind me.

"Brian," I kept walking, ignoring him. "Brian, BRIAN!  Wait up dude!  What the hell is wrong with you?!"

"Nick, you just wouldn't understand!" I said, nearly screaming at him.

"Oh, of course I wouldn't understand, I'm naive, dense little Nick who doesn't understand anything besides video games!"  Nick said starting to get defensive.

"God dammit Nick, I'm really not in the fucking mood for this!  If you haven't noticed, I just broke off my engagement!" I said, yelling more than I wanted to.  I kept walking, off the bus and back into the hotel.  Then I heard a sound I really wasn't in the mood for.  After 5 seconds of screaming 3 crazy fans came up asking me to sign autographs.  Being polite, I signed their CD's
quickly and handed out hugs.

The next thing I knew I was on my knees, with my head in the toilet, throwing up profusely.  Nick followed me into the bathroom and tried to calm me down.

"Dude, calm down, its ok.  She's not gonna come with us on tour so you don't hafta worry about her."

"Go the fuck away, dammit!  I don't give a damn!  Leave me alone!"

"Okay, but trust me, you're gonna need someone to talk to, and if you do, you can talk to me."

"Ok fine, now just get out!"  I sunk to the floor and started sobbing and felt my eyelids getting heavy.

When I woke up I was sleeping in my bunk on the bus.  It took me a while to remember why I was asleep, why my stomach and throat hurt, and what had happened during the course of the morning.  I looked at my watch and it read 11:10.  I waited a minute to make my wish.  I wished for things to be easier than they were this morning.  I wished to not need Leighanne.

I opened the curtain and rubbed my eyes.  I looked up and saw Kevin, Howie, AJ and Nick staring at me with concerned expressions.

"Can I help you?"  I said sarcastically.

"We wanted to know how you were, we wanted to know if you're okay."  Kevin said sympathetically.

"HOW DO YOU THINK I AM?!  DO I LOOK OKAY TO YOU?!"

"Actually, you look fine, considering you just woke up.  How do you feel? Can I get you a mint?"  AJ asked grinning.

"Actually, I could use one, my mouth doesn't really taste that good right about now.  Where are we?"  I asked still feeling sleepy.

"Missouri, we've gone about 250 miles.  You've been sleeping for hours.  Do you wanna talk or something?"  Nick said with compassion.

"No thanks, maybe later when I'm feeling better."  I said drifting off to sleep again.
