Forgive Me- Part 2

Amelia’s POV

Two weeks, it’s been two weeks since I fucked up royally. I can’t believe I didn’t say anything! He told me that he loved me I just sat there. I FUCKING SAT THERE! I was so shocked that I just couldn’t speak, and by the time I could bring myself to, the moment had passed. God, he probably hates me now. I drag myself upstairs to our bed room and pause as I see his suitcase sitting open, half packed for tour. I sit on the floor in front of it and just stare at it. I knew this was coming, I knew that eventually he was going to have to leave but that didn’t really make it any easier. I got lost in the happiness of being here that I guess I just somehow ended up believing that it would stay like that forever. At least it wasn’t a long tour; only two and a half months, we had been away from each other a lot longer than that. This should be easy.

I pull myself away from the room, I don’t want Jaime to see me like that and if he comes back from a meeting with the guys it’s probably the first room he will go to. He’s worried enough about leaving me here, I don’t need to make that worse, and I need him to think I’ll be fine here. I decide to go sit out in the back yard for a while. I lay in the grass just soaking in the sun. The sun here is so much nicer here, softer in a way. Even though it’s hotter here than back home I can lay here in the sun for longer without getting burnt. When I mentioned this to my mum she said something about the hole in the ozone layer making Australia’s sun more dangerous because there is nothing stopping the UV rays. I don’t know if that’s true but my god I love the sun here, plus I’m already getting a nice tan!

I don’t know how long I way lying there but it must have been a while because the sun was a lot closer to the horizon than it was when I first laid down. Suddenly I felt someone lay down beside me. I roll my head to the side and crack my eyes open. I smile as I see Jaime lying beside me smiling at me; he slides his and into mine before allowing his eyes to close and head to roll back.

“How long have you been out here?” he asked me

“I have absolutely no idea”

“You’re going to burn”

“No I won’t”

“You’re not wearing sun cream, you’re going to burn”

“How do you know I’m not?”

“Milly, you hate it”

“Still”

“Come on; let’s go in side where it’s cool” he stood up and pulled me unwillingly up with him.

“But Jaime I was comfy”

“Too bad, the guys want to go out tonight and have requested your presence”. My mood immediately brightened. I hadn’t seen the guys in quite a while and really wouldn’t mind spending a night out with them.

“Where are we going?”

“I have no idea, Mike’s taking us somewhere but he told us all to eat before we go out because there won’t be food.” I nod and head over to the fridge.

“So what are we eating?” I ask. Jaime comes and stands behind me and peers over my shoulder into the fridge.

“How about steak?”

“Yea sounds good” I pull out the steaks and put them on the bench for Jaime. I’m not a bad cook but I have never been able to cook steak, I have no idea how to tell whether it’s rare, medium or well done so I just leave the cooking of red meats to Jaime. I walk back to the fridge, pull out the broccoli, cauliflower, carrot and cheese and set to work on making a vegetable bake to go with the steaks.

We ate quickly and I ran upstairs to get ready. I curled my hair so it fell in soft waves down my back and did my makeup with smoky eyes. Now I’m just sitting on the floor in the bedroom staring at the cupboard. I have absolutely no idea what to wear. Jaime soon walks in already dressed and ready to go and he just laughs when he sees me. I pout at him and he joins me on the floor.

“Stuck?”

“Jaime” I whine

“Yea?” he chuckled

“Dress me”

“Seriously?” I pout at him and he laughs again before he stands and digs through the cupboard. He soon pulls out a black dress and holds it up to me. “You look hot in this”

“Thanks Himes” I kiss his cheek before taking the dress off him and changing into it then add some nice heels and my favourite necklace. I check my outfit in the mirror before heading downstairs to meet Jamie and he smiles before offering his arm to me.

“My lady” he bows slightly and I laugh at him before accepting his arm.

“You’re an idiot, you know that right?”

“Yea but you love it” he looks shocked and worried at his own words. He looks away from me flustered, obviously remembering last time he mentioned love.

“Yea… I really do” he looks up at me with a huge smile on his face before leaning down and kissing me passionately. We stood there for a moment before I pulled away. “Come on you idiot, we have to go”

“We could always stay here…”

“As good as that sounds, I haven’t seen the guys in ages” I pull him out of the door towards the car.

We drive to the Fuentes residence and Vic answers the door. The second I see him I attack him in a hug which after a second of shock he returns.
“Nice to see you too Mil” he said as I grinned up at him. He led us inside to where Tony and Mike were sitting on the couch drinking a bottle of whiskey. I go sit on Tony’s lap and took a sip from his glass. He just chuckles and takes the glass back off me.

“Get your own” he said as he took a sip. I pouted and Mike chuckled at us. He patted the empty bit of couch beside him and poured me a glass before topping off his own. I went and joined him and gratefully accepted the glass from him.

“Thanks Mikey”

“No problem short shit”

“Hey! That was not nice!” I grumbled

“But still true”

“I may be short but I can drink you under the table”

“God I would love to see that” Jaime chuckled as he sat in a chair across from us.

“She wouldn’t be able to” mike scoffed

“Is that a challenge?” I asked

“Actually yea it is”

“Guys, save it for when we’re actually out” Vic said taking the bottle of whiskey back to their kitchen.

“When are we going?” I asked

“As soon as you guys have finished your drinks” Vic replied. In response I skull my drink and jump off the couch.

“Can we go?” Jaime chuckles behind me at my eagerness

“Mike’s still drinking” Tony said as he put his empty glass aside.

“Mike hurry up!” I complained. I don’t know why I’m so excited, I normally hate going out. Maybe it’s just these guys. I feel so comfortable around them and love hanging out with them and that makes the prospect of leaving the security of the house so much less daunting, they make me feel safe.

Once much finished his drink- with my constant prompting- we all squish into Jaime’s car and Mike directs us to a new club that is supposed to be really good. Once inside Jaime announces that he will be the DD and mike drags me over to the bar so he can have our little competition.

“Really Mike? You saw her on her birthday; you’re so going to regret this” Tony said from the other side of Mike. Vic and Jaime walked over and stood beside me so they could watch.

“It was three shots of vodka, that’s basically nothing.” Mike orders five shots each of tequila and lines them up in front of us. “Loser has to pay”.

“Gladly” I smirk.

“Tony, you count it” Mike announced and Tony just nodded with a chuckle

“On 3… Ready? Okay, 1-2-3”

I shot my drinks and put down the fifth just before Mike and I grinned. It was close but I still won.

“Pay the man Mike” I motioned to the bar tender who had stood to watch the challenge. Mike eyed me down as he pulled out his wallet and handed the man the money. The bar tender accepted it with a laugh and congratulated me before walking to the other side to take some orders.

“I told you Mike” Tony chuckled.

“Shut up Tony” he grumbled.

Jaime wrapped his arms around me as he chatted to Vic while Mike and Tony were arguing about how Mike just lost to a girl. A smile formed on my lips as I watched them. These guys have become such a huge part of my life; they’ve become a part of my family and I don’t know what I would do without them. I’ll guess I’ll find out soon enough though. This time next week they’ll be gone. The thought brought my mood down considerably. I motioned to the bar tender and ordered another shot. Tonight I am getting smashed.
