Ohne Dich (Sequel to Stirb Nicht Vor Mir)

Chapter 100

January 5, 2006

"Ready to go?" Corey asked me. 

I nodded my head and we walked downstairs into a taxi. 

As they drove to the building, I rested me had on Corey's shoulder. 

"God, you're so bony," I chuckled. 

"I'd rather be bony than be fat."

I smiled. When the car stopped, I opened up the door and Corey and I walked out. 

"Am I doing the interview with you?" He asked. 

"No, you'll just stay backstage."

"Got it. Have you talked to Till or Richard at all?"

"No."

"Why? You're in Germany!"

"I don't need to. I might later, though."

"How's Ashton?"

"He's good. I'm afraid he doesn't miss me, though."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I don't know. One of my biggest fears is that he won't want to come over to my house anymore and that he'll want to stay with Neil full-time."

"That's bullshit."

"No, I actually feel that way."

"I mean that him not wanting to come over anymore is bullshit. Of course he misses his fucking mother!"

"Introducing...Adette Morgenson!" The talk show host shouted. 

"Adette Taylor," Corey whispered.

 I playfully slapped him and walked out. I gave a hug to the talk show host and sat down. 

"So," The talk show host said. "How have you been?"

"Really, really good."

"That's good. What brings you here to Germany?"

"The boys," I chuckled. "I'm just here on a vacation with my boy-fianc-Corey."

"And who is this Corey?"

"He's a musician."

"Seems you're into musicians, eh?"

"Seems so. And men who wear beanies, too. I love the beanies. And smoking."

"Wow. Very specific."

"It's just traits that I've noticed in two of the men I've dated."

"How many people have you dated?"

"About three."

"Three?"

"Three."

"Well then," He chuckled. "How was your Christmas?"

"It was amazing and fun. I really liked it."

"What did you do?"

"Corey and I-and my son-went to my mom's house to have Christmas. Keanu Reeves was there."

"Why is-Oh, they're dating!"

"Yeah."

"How weird is that? To have Keanu Reeves just casually in your mom's house?"

"It's kind of crazy. If you told me that my mom was going to date Keanu Reeves, I wouldn't have believed you, but here she is and she's dating him. He's really nice, though and he's funny."
