Old Faces and New Places

Taking Susan by the wrist I marched us to the bus waiting in the parking lot. I saw flames dance in front of my face. My whole world was turning red.

Pushing the door open with great force the boys who were sitting on the couch jumped up out of surprise.

"Hey Ashely! Susan!" Alex cheered standing up and touching my hand. I shot him a glare and flung my hand away.

"Don't. Touch. Me" I growled

"wh-" he stepped back as if my words were bullets and they just pierced his skin.

"I thought you were fucking married Susan" I looked at her accusingly

"I ugh was for about a year and then we got a divorce. Then I happened to bump into Alex and the guys when they were touring Italy-" I cut her off with my hand

"let me guess you and Alex 'started dating' and then he left you" I finished for her

"no we had a kid together and then he ugh left me...for you actually"

"for me? I JUST SAW HIM AGAIN A FEW WEEKS AGO" I screeched punching the pillow on the couch. My blood was boiling and soon I was about to explode.

"Yeah he wanted to find you" she concluded, my eyes lifted up to meet with Alex's who was sitting across the room.

"You left her with a fucking kid!!" What an ass! I couldn't take it anymore I walked over to Alex and slapped him as hard as I could in the face.

"Where's the kid" I asked, trying to calm down

"staying with Kathy" Susan answered

"jack, tell my band I'm getting a taxi and heading home. I'm off of this tour, tell them I'm sorry I couldn't continue until the end." I made up my mind, Alex was toxic.

"Who's going to sing?" Alex asked trying to grab a hold of my shoulders. I pushed him off and stared him down, "all the girls can sing, we have back up plans" I snarled, taking out my phone I dialed a taxi and then went to pack up my things.

Everyone tried to to stop me from leaving, but my decision was final. I was done.

hours of sitting in a cab I finally pulled up to the familiar house. Chris sat on my front porch holding what seemed like a basket.

"What's this?" I asked him wiping the tears from my face. I admit I had been crying, I just said goodbye to the people I thought were my so called friends...I guess not.

"It's a little basket of things for you, mainly candy but also a movie or two." I smiled up at Chris and wrapped my arms around his neck. My hands tangled in his hair as I whispered a thank you into his ear.

"Can you please stay over tonight?" Tears continued to fall from my eyes, "anything to help you feel better" he responded taking my hand.
