Why Won't You Love Me?, chapter 5
"Has Jonathon talked to you since the last meeting?" I asked Kylie, grabbing some napkins off of the top shelf. We were in Publix getting some final nessessities for tour, and table settings and silverware were some of those things. "No. Why?" she asked, grabbing a 12 pack of tissues off of another shelf. "Just wanted to know if Green Day was coming. That's all." I replied, pushing the cart into the frozen foods section.
I began grabbing frozen burritos and tacos, shoving them in the cart with Kylie asking if we could get ice cream. "No. We don't need to provoke Diego's ADHD with that stuff." I told her for the tenth time, moving into the next aisle. "But could we get two pints? Just for us?" she asked, practically begging. "Fine. Get me Rum Raison." I said absent-mindedly, looking at wine coolers. "Strawberry Blush or Tropical Fruit?" I asked her when she got back from the ice cream section. "I dunno...just pick." she said. "Ugh...too lazy." I said, grabbing a 6 pack of each.
When we had loaded everything into her jeep, we headed over to Bed, Bath, and Beyond to get plates, bowls, and silverware. After spending 30 minutes draggind Kylie away from the "cute duckie" bathroom set, we had to decide what kind of plates and bowls to get. That took about an hour, seeing as we are both incredibly indecisive.
This is gonna be a great tour I told myself in check-out. ...I hope
**3 days later**
"We're here, sugar booger..." I heard Kylie say, tickling my nose. "Gerroff me!" I said, rubbing my eyes. When I opened them, I saw her about two inches away, breathing heavily. "You are so weird..." I said, getting up and picking up my stuff from the over-head compartment. "So the band is supposed to meet us here?" I asked her as we were walking into the terminal.
"Uhh...they're here." She said, pointing towards three very familiar men holding up a sign. "Oh...my god. Green Day? I'm gonna kill Jonathon..." I said under my breath. "Why? We like them remember?" said Kylie, staring at me like I had lost my mind. "I know. I just wasn't prepared, that's all." I said, lugging my carry-on across the terminal towards Mike, Tre, and Billie. "Oh. Okay." Ky replied, shrugging. After inroducing ourselves to the guys we headed out for the limo and began the 5 minute journey to the hotel.
"Okay. Where's Jonathon?" I asked Kylie, looking around the hotel lobby. "Uhhh...not here." she said, walking up to the check-in counter to get our keys. I was continuing to look around the lobby when I heard the loud voices of Diego and Andrew. "Keely!!!" screamed Andrew as he bolted over to me. "Jeeze Andrew. You act like you havent seen me in months." I said. I hugged Danielle as Diego went to check-in for the three of them.
Later that night as I got out of the shower I couldn't help but think about Jeff and began to cry. "Hey, what's the matter?" I heard Kylie ask as she knocked on the bathroom door.I put on a robe and walked out of the room, her immediately hugging me. "Miss Charlie?" she asked, letting me sit on the bed. "Yes. And no." I said, rubbing ,my wet hair with a towel. "I miss Jeff so much. Everyday it's like the hole in my heart gets a little bigger. Am I ever gonna find someone?" I asked Kylie, flopping down on the bed. "I hope you do. For both you and Charlie." she said, patting my leg. "But when?" I said, sitting up. "I dunno. Maybe on tour?" she said.
15 minutes later I was still contemplating what Kylie had said when my phone rang. "Hi momma!!" I heard a very happy Charlie say. "Hi baby! Are you having fun?" I asked sitting on my bed. As he explained to me everything that had been going on at Ryan's I remembered why I needed to keep looking for the right guy.
After I had hung the phone up, I climbed into bed. God I miss you, Jeff...
