Broken

Chapter Seventeen

Dustin's POV

I was so far in my head that I didn't realize that we had arrived at the arena until I felt a soft touch to my arm. I looked up and Daisy was looking at me with concern in her eyes.

"Are you alright, Dustin?"

"I am okay, just lost in thought."

"What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing to worry about."
"Are you sure?"

"Yes doll, I will be fine. Let's get in there before Jason sends out the search party."

I stand up taking her hand as we head out of the bus and into the arena. We walk in silence as we head to the green room to meet with everyone. Colin is standing outside of the room talking with the other security team.

"Hey Colin, I need to talk to you in a bit."

"Alright, I will be here."

Daisy and I head in with the others and we sit down on the couch and I pull her on my lap, as I gently rub her back.

"It's about time you two come in. Marking the bus off your list are we?" Sam asks with a smirk.

"None of your business, but no. I was lost in thought."

"What's got you all caught up in your head?" Jack asks.

"Nothing much, just thinking."

"You look like you have a lot on your mind. Sure you don't want to talk about it?" Elijah wonders.

"Nah, I'm good."

"Aright guys, let's get out there and make sure everything sounds awesome." Jason says as he walks in the door.

We all get up and start to head out. I lean over and kiss Daisy quickly as we head out.

"See you in a bit, doll."

As we head out, I see Colin is waiting for me, and I head over to him as the guys head out to the stage.

"I'll be out there in a minute guys, just need to talk to Colin for a second."
"Alright see you out there." Jack says as they all head out to the stage and Colin walks over.

"What did you need to talk to me about?"

"When we all were getting on the bus earlier, I thought I saw Tasha. I didn't want to worry Daisy. I need you to be extra cautious if she and any of Scott's men are here."

"Got it, I will let James and Steve know and we will keep our eyes out."

"Thanks, man. Her safety is the priority here."

"We got you."

After I talk with Colin, I feel somewhat better. I head out to the stage. The guys are already tuning their instruments. Once I head out and they see I am there, we go through several songs to make sure that everything sounds good.

"Alright, I think you guys sound great. Let's get everyone back to the hotel to rest and get ready for tonight." Jason calls for a break and we head out.

It is a relief to be able to get back to the room to rest for a bit. We all set our instruments down and head back to the green room. I walk in and see Daisy curled up on the couch, on her phone. I walk up behind her and lean over placing my lips on her neck.

"Are you ready to get back to the hotel for a bit, to rest and get ready for tonight?"

"Definitely, I could use a shower."

We head out to the bus and back to the hotel. As we walk back into the hotel I take Daisy's hand in mine and we head for the elevators. It's a quiet ride up as we are riding with a few other people. Once we arrive at our floor we exit the elevator and head down to our room. I open the door and let her in first as I walk in, she heads over to the seating area and I notice a flower arrangement that was not there before we left. She walks over and starts to pull the card.
