Arianna`s POV

Finally Chris and I boarded our plane to Romania. It was nice yet surprising to see the guys and Valerie there and it makes me want to go home more.

When i first saw Brian, he looked slightly different. More tired and quiet. I thought that if i see him i will burst out in tears, but i didn't. Instead, i greeted him almost too calmly. I guess that heartbreak wound slowly heals itself over time. I felt kinda numb seeing him. I don't have a kind of feeling towards him anymore. I don't even know if i love him or not. It's... awkward. It wasn't, however, surprising for me to see that he brought a girl with him on tour. This just proves that he can get the girls and to me, maybe our relationship is a come-and-go thing. Whatever.

I was so involved with my thought that when Chris spoke to me, it startled the lights out of me.

"What?" i said.

"You okay? You seemed so outta it."

"Is it because of Brian?"

"No. To be honest, i don't have any kind of feeling what-so-ever anymore. I felt numb and weird."

"Damn right it was awkward. He thought i was your boyfriend or something like that."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 and a half weeks later.

"FLIGHT 71 TO LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, US Boarding now at GATE 51" the flight announcement said. With this Chris and I head towards the gate.

Once we got in line, there was a huge amount of people, but lucky us, we get priority booking since we got business class tickets. We board the plane and we had seats next to each other.

After take off, i turned to Chris,

"It's been almost three months and finally we're going back home."

"I know. It was amazing. Our journey. I am so glad i met you."

"Same. Zacky knew you are spending the night at our house. But don't mind, the band have a party or stuff like that."

"I am fine with that. I can't believe your the sister of one of my favorite band. That's so freaking awesome!"

"Freaking? Grow up man."

"Fucking. Okay:?"

"Yeah alright."

We continue to have conversation until one of us got tired and fall asleep. By the time i woke up, we are almost at California and they are serving some breakfast.

--------------------A WHILE LATER-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thank you for flying with United Airline. We hope you have a great time in United State." The flight's annoucement went on again.

Once we picked up our suitcases, we went to the pick-up area where Zacky is waiting for us.

"Hey," he said, hugging me. "Nice to see you again, sis"

"Good to see you too."

"Hey Chris, Ari told you that we have a party right?"

"Yep. Not a problem."

Zacky drove us back home with us telling him about our adventure in Europe.

Finally, after almost half a year of absences, i am home.

The men unloaded the luggage and the minute we walked past those front doors, the guys and Valerie all greeted me with hugs while Chris introduced himself to them. Jimmy and Johnny, being the creepy assholes they were, started talking to Chris frantically, scaring him.

I noticed Brian and his girlfriend were sitting in the dining room when we walked in. They didn't bother greeting us or anything and not to make the matter worse, i decided to go upstairs to my room and show Chris his.

After that, I went downstairs for dinner. Unfortunately, i am seated directly across from Brian. Chris noticed this, and whispered to my ears,

"You okay with this? We can switch spots."

I looked at him, understand his intention but I really don't feel anything anymore. "It's fine."

Dinner was sort of awkward. Even though Chris explained to the crowd that he isn't my boyfriend but someone i met on the road, i can still see Brian staring at both Chris and I. A glare that's almost with hatred and sadness. But other than that, we had much fun explaining our crazy time in Europe.

After dinner, all of us decided to go to the living room. Chris and the rest of the guys went first but i stayed behind to get the beer.

Brian's POV

Today is the day. 6 fucking month have i missed her. I loved her to death and now she comes home with a guy? Yeah right, i don't believe them. He isn't her boyfriend? You fucking joking with me right?

I just don't know why i am so angry. If she gets a boyfriend, who gives a fuck? I got a girlfriend that loves me very much and vice versa.

After i pushed my anger aside, i decided that i need to have a chat with Ari to fix our former problems. Everything is so awkward between us. I don't want us to lose our friendship too.

When the guys all head out to the living room except for Arianna, who is getting the vodkas or beers from the kitchen, i excused myself to the washroom.

I slowly approach the kitchen, which by the way, is next to the washroom. I saw Arianna's beautiful figure at the shelve. She seemed to be having much trouble getting the cups from the top of the cabinet.

"Need any help?" I volunteered.

She turned around, "please get the cups for me." and i did.

She muttered a thanks to me and was going to walk out of the kitchen when i pulled her back.

"We need to talk." I said, sternly.

"Brian, we don't. What happen happened. We both moved on right?"

"Please, just hear me out." I said almost like begging.

"Actions speaks better than words." and she left the kitchen.

Till this day, Arianna still won't believe in me. I felt my wound, my heart just got shattered into more pieces. She should at least give me a second chance, or a chance to tell my side of the story.

I don't know what to do. My heart and soul goes out to Ari, i love her till the death of me. How can i face her everyday knowing she does not belong to me? How can she be so cold and seemed like not a fucking thing have happened? How can she be so happy when my heart is breaking over here?

After Ari left, I waited for a couple of minutes and join the gang. We have a fun time until it's time to go. I was the first one out the door because i don't want to be here any longer. I want to go back to my own home and stay fucking alone.

Arianna's POV

When Brian said he wanted to talk to me, it takes every bit of my resistance to say no. It's not like i am avoiding him or something. But i really got nothing to say to him. I don't even know my feelings towards him anymore. He is happy with his own life and i can have mine. Right? I tried to be civilized towards him but when he kept on doing those staring shit to me, it made me feel very uncomfortable. I just want him to leave me the fuck alone. I might still have feelings for him, but i am not going to give it a second try. It just hurts too much.
