Chapter Two- Wrote Me Letters Just To Say She Loved Me
Screaming fans could be heard outside the bus.
Tom swung his bag over his shoulder, they were staying in a hotel tonight instead of being cooped on the bus. He moved his pillow, revealing Lexi's letter, a sigh escaped him, he didn't know what to do with it. Dougie popped up beside him
"What's that?"
Tom grabbed the letter and tried to stuff in his bag "Nothing"
"If it's nothing, can't I see it?"
"No" Tom ran down the stairs two at a time, but was cornered by Danny and Harry
Harry folded his arms "Why can't we see?"
"It's just a letter from a girl at a show a couple of weeks ago..."
"So why can't we see?"
"Because you don't need to" Tom said
"Why do you still have it?" Dougie asked, walking down the stairs
"Because..." Tom hesitated, he didn't want to tell them. They would make him call her. "...because I just haven't got round to doing anything with it"
Danny, Dougie and Harry looked at each other. They could read Tom like a book, there was more to this story than meets the eye. Tom could see it in their faces that they didn't believe him. He put his bag down and opened the letter again
"She's written the same thing as every other fan, but in such a different way. She actually writes good lyrics. She made me peanut butter Oreos. And when I was talking to her..."
"Wait" Harry said "Is this the girl that you were talking to for ages? When Fletch had to shout you to hurry up?"
"Yeah she is"
"The blonde with glasses?" Danny asked
"Yes"
Dougie smirked "Do you have a thing for a fan Tom?"
Tom's eye brows knitted together "What? No!"
"Then why have the letter still?" Danny said
He sank on to the sofa, head in his hands "Because I've been thinking about writing her back"
Dougie unzipped the pocket that he knew Tom kept his phone in "Is her number on it?"
Tom looked up at him "Yeah, why?"
Holding out the phone, Dougie said "Why don't you call her instead?"
…
"Lexi!"
Lexi looked up to see her best friends, Cara and Jessie. The two were always dragging her out of school in their free time to go to the supermarket down the road for food, they had been doing since they began the school's sixth form in September. She turned away from the photographs she was editing "Hey guys what's up?"
"You coming to the shop?" Jessie asked
Lexi looked at the computer screen, to her friends and back again "I think I need to stay here. The sooner I finish this work, the sooner I can stop going to this stupid class"
"That is a good point..." Cara said "...do you want us to grab you anything?"
"No, no" She smiled "But thanks"
Her friends nodded and strolled out the room as Lexi turned back to the computer.
The photographs staring at her were from the McFly concert just over two weeks ago, most of them being of Tom. She had written in her letter to him that he and the boys would make part of her photography exam, but of course she didn't know what he thought to that, he hadn't replied to her letter. Not that she had expected him to of course, he was a busy guy, still away on tour. Probably talking to fans the way he had spoke to her, for some reason, that hurt. She just wished he would write back to her, considering she had poured her heart and soul on to those pieces of paper, but deep down, she knew she would never hear from him.
Her phone lit up on the table beside her, a number she didn't recognise...
...
...Tom paced up and down his suite phone stuck to his ear. Why was he nervous? It didn't help that the other three were sat on the edge of his bed, following him with their eyes.
"Is it ringing?" Danny asked
He nodded, not wanting to speak incase she answered. He had a feeling she wouldn't, there was a high chance she was in class...
"Hello?"
"Lexi?" He saw the other three grin out of the corner of his eye
"Tom?"
"Yeah its me" He turned his back on his friends, he didn't want them to see him smiling "How are you?"
Lexi locked her computer and headed out in to the corridor, wanting quiet so that she could hear him properly "I'm good thanks, you?"
"I'm good thanks, you aren't at school are you?"
"Yeah, but I'm on a free so it's ok. How's tour going?"
"It's awesome, kinda sad that we're nearly done though" He cleared his throat "Listen are you free April 21st...?"
Lexi's heart pounded, why was he asking that? And why were her hopes suddenly so high? She had to calm down, he wouldn't be asking her anything big. She took a deep breath and said "Yeah, why?"
