The singer's friend, who looks a little like Max and sounds like her, dragged the singer onto the stage. Another girl, who was hanging with them, came over and said, "Please excuse Ryan. She's a little over protective of Mill?
"Why?" Iggy asked.
"Well…… let's just say bad things happened to Mill and Ryan and I don't want that to happen again. Oh yeah I'm Tyler."
"Oh." Iggy said. Tyler walked over to the stage and whispered something into Mills' ear then came back.
"Let's head back to the hotel. Nudge can't watch them forever." I said. Iggy hesitated before nodded, but turned his head to 'watch' the stage. On stage Mill and Ryan were packing up the stage. All of the sudden Ryan stopped cold, like someone was holding a gun to her friends head. She stood up straight, causing Mill to spot her and rush over. Tyler darted over the bars' counter and ran to Ryan. Mill grabbed Ryan's' wrist and dragged her outside, while Tyler told the crowd that it was time for them to leave. Then she ran outside to Mill and Ryan.
We followed slowly. Ig swore that Mill was Max, and he was rarely wrong. I watched as the 3 girls walked into the woods. We walked behind them, getting farther and farther away from the road. Ryan's head snapped up and her body turned so she was facing us. CRAP!
"You shouldn't follow strangers." She said. "Uh… we just……we." Iggy tried.
"Why does it matter?" I asked coldly, remembering what Ryan said to me. Ryan's glare actually made me step back. You could practically feel the hate waves coming from her glare. She turned and looked at Mill, who nodded and grabbed Tyler's shoulder and walked away, leaving us with her.
"Listen ok. Don't follow us. Don't do anything. Just go home and live your life. I'm sorry that I snapped at you earlier, but we have had enough bad things in our life. SO just go." She said. Iggy leaned over and whispered into my ear, "Let's go before she whips our butts. Seriously." I nodded even though he couldn't see it and turned to Ryan. "You win." I said and we left.
We made it back to the hotel around 12. Nudge was on the couch sleeping and Angel and Gazzy were one of the beds. When Max left, everything changed. Angel still cries herself to sleep, Gazzy and Iggy don't make bombs (unless necessary), Nudge barley talks, and I try to lead. Hey! You try and lead when you kicked your best friend/ love of your life out of the picture. The thing that sucks the most is that 2 days after Max was gone we realized that she wasn't working with the school. 'Cause we have been back to the school 9 times. Wow we're stupid.
And we start school tomorrow at Los Angeles Elementary, Middle, and High School.
