Love To Hate Me

Suspicious

I look at Max and say," Thank you. I am good. You can go back."
Austin puts all my stuff in to his room. Max says," Are you sure?"
I nod and watch as Max walks back to the bus mere three buses away.
Craig's POV
I watched as Max comes up to me in front of the bus.
I say," What did she say?"
Max looks down and says," You really thinks you saw her and she saw her at the concert."
Craig sighs and says," I guess it's not meant to be."
Max says," I wouldn't say that maybe it's not what everyone else wants."
Ashley's POV
Austin taps my shoulder and says," Are you ok?"
I walk in with him and say," I don't know. I was so in it."
Austin grabs my hand taking me inside. He sits me down and says," What happened? He seems like a really good guy."
I say," Andy messaged me and said did he tell me that Gabby was in town or even that he saw her. I didn't want to believe any of this but she texted him afterwards and said," I had a great time seeing you xxx take care our baby."
Austin shrugs and says," Andy is just trying to get under your skin. Do you really think Craig would do that? Why would he lie?"
I say," I don't know. Maybe he's fucking her? I saw her at the concert. I mean even Ronnie said something."
Austin shakes me a bit and says," Ashley, do you still have a thing for Ronnie?"
I say," kind of but not really. I really love Craig."
Alan walks in and says," Omg what drama brings all you stuff here?"
I start crying and say," I think Craig's cheating on me."
Alan says," Mabbitt? No he's a good guy."
I nod and say," Were you by him last night? Did he talk to Gabby?"
Alan smirks and says," girls are crazy. He didn't talk to her and he didn't go out. I was next to him."
Austin smirks and says," I told you girl."
I smile and say," I am so glad to hear that because I was really scared that he had sex with her."
Alan laughs and says," I have no idea maybe he did? I was out there so as far as I saw he didn't cheat on you. He was actually hiding from her."
I take my phone and text Craig," Did you see Gabby last night?"
Alan rolls his eyes and says," Lets just go out tonight after the show."
Austin jumps up and says," We do have today off."
I sit at the table and my phone buzzes the whole table.
Craig texts," I fucking love you. What do you not get? I didn't see her. Max is the one who got her from Gabby."
Austin and Alan go in to the back to change. I look at the clock and see 3:00.
I text," Craig, I love you too. I just can't help to feel like that's bound to happen. She still loves you."
Craig says," Meet me for lunch please."
My heart flutters and skips a beat. Should I go and hear him out?
I call out for Austin . He runs in the kitchen and says," Yeah are you ok?"
I show him the phone and say," What do I do?"
Austin says," What do you think you should do? Do you want to hear him out?"
Alan says," just save the girl dramatics and go see him."
I go in to the bathroom checking my hair and fixing my eyeliner.
Alan scares me and says," You know what that means right?"
I scream and say," What does it mean?"
Alan chuckles and says," He's important to you. You came in here checking your appearance knowing he would compliment you on it. You love him. I see the sparkle as you dance around getting ready."
I smile and say," You are not total wrong."
He winks and says," I know my people. It's nice to see your sparkle back. Ronnie seemed to had taken that away."
The knock at the door startled both of us. Austin answers and says," Hey Ronnie what's up?"
Ronnie says," I wanted to talk to you about the set."
I look at Alan and say," Please cover me?"
He shakes his head and says," You have to do it. Either you still love him or you don't. You were just talking about Craig in the same light."
I walk out and say," Austin I am going to go."
Once he heard my voice, Ronnie looked right in to my eyes. Austin notices the awkward staring and says," Ok Ronnie let's talk in my room."
Ronnie bites his lip and follows Austin into the backroom.
Craig typing.............
What was he going to say? Was he having the same problem I am ? I just want him to hold me ,but I know it's not fair. I need to find myself and if I still love Ronnie
Craig texts," Are we meeting up?"
I text ," I am ready if we are."
Craig texts," This is going to be hard."
I looked shocked and think what is he going to say. I text," I'll come over right now. Let's get this over with."
I walk out the door and towards the rest of buses before I get a text from Ronnie saying," I want to make this work. I have been doing a lot of finding myself."
I text back," I need to work on myself. I think it's only fair to you and Craig if I know what and who I want."
Ronnie texts," Ok I understand. I'll back off."
I walk over to Craig's bus to see him in ripped skinny jeans and a tank top. His white skin showing through the rips and tank top. His smile showing and eyes covered by his big black sunglasses.
I wave him over sweetly. He slowly walks over and puts his sunglasses on his head. He says," Hey beautiful."
I smile and look down from his beautiful brown eyes.  Craig says," Where do you want to go?"
I smile and think why does this guy still ask that even though he knows how I am.
Craig meets me my eyes and say," I know. Let's go to this little Mexican place 10 mins from here then."
I walk with him to the all so familiar car. I say," Where's Lelia?"
Craig crosses his arms and gets in the car. Wow ok then .
This shall be awkward. Someone help me
