I got up and did my normal routine. Get up, brush teethe, do make up, do hair, fix make up, get dressed, asked Erick if what I'm wearing is okay, go back and change again. After that I changed into a black pencil skirt and a white Jefferson Airplane shirt and red flats. I walked into the kitchen and saw Tommy making a protein shake.

"Want one?" he asked. I just shook my head. I was too nervous. I sat down at the small table across from him and he looked at me. "We're forty minutes out of Baltimore." He said. I nodded my head and took a deep breath. "Liz, Zack and I will take him down if he gets too close to you."

"I know, but I just don't know what to say to him." I said.

"Just ignore him." He said. It wasn't a bad idea. Maybe I would. I was about to get a bowl of cereal when my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID.

"Hi Lisa." I said,

"That asshole!" She yelled. "How dare he, we trusted him! I mean you're so much prettier than her!" she said through a sob.

"Whoa baby lady, chill out a bit there." I said and I heard the phone be passed to someone else.

"Hey Liz its Alex." He said.

"Wow, how long has she been like that?" I asked.

"Pretty much since she got pregnant, but its been really bad since she saw Jack and Zack at our house the other day. We had a BBQ and I was stupid enough to invite both of them. I didn't want to tell her what was going on because I didn't want to worry her but then Zack came over and wouldn't talk to Jack she asked what was going on and Zack told her. The next thing I knew Jack has a bloddy nose." He said.

"Wait, she punched him?" I asked. "That can't be good for the stress levels."

"Yea, he hasn't been over at our house since but he and Zack are still planning on coming tonight." He said.

"Shit. Oh well, I just won't talk to him." I said.

"I would just stay clear of him all together. He told me he wrote a 'please take me back' speech. I wouldn't want to hear it if I was you." He said.

"Dammit. I want to see everyone else though. Oh well, I'll figure it out. Are you guys staying for the show?" I asked.

"Um, hell yes. We want to see you. As much as you are an annoying little sister to me, we all really miss having you around." He said.

"Aw, Gaskarth is getting sentimental." I teased him.

"Fuck off." He said.

"Love you too" I said with a laugh as I hung up the phone. I took a deep breath as I felt the bus stop. I looked outside and realized we were already at the venue. It was noon, I had sound check at one, hair and makeup at two- thirty, fan meet& greet at three- thirty, then everyone would be here at five- thirty, then the show starts at seven. I took a deep breath and walked over to Katy's bus. I knocked on the door and she opened it.

"Hey girl hey, get in here." she said and pulled me back to her closet. I sat down on her huge bed as she threw dress bag at me. I opened it to see a cream mini dress with sleeves that went down to the elbows and a small black belt that went around the middle.

"Did I mention that I love you?" I said. "This will make him feel terrible!" I said. I pulled it out of the bag and held it up. The color looked perfect with my new hair too.

"I'm glad you like it. If I were you I would wear it with your black flats." Katy said.

"I will." I said as I looked at the dress some more. "I'll put it on after the meet & greet." I said. "Thank you so much Katy." I said and hugged her.

"Don't worry about it, just let me borrow that shirt sometime." She said.

"Any day." I said and with a new perk I my step and a new dress in my closet I walked into my dressing room of the venue and hung it up with the rest of my clothes. I walked onstage and started sound check. I sang through all the songs and we fixed some of the lighting stuff for the intro. When we were almost done Evan yelled a time over his drum kit.

"Liz if we start plying a song will you sing along with it?" he asked.

"Sure." I said and they all started playing. I didn't recognize it but then I realized it was 'Damned if I do ya, Damned If I Don't' I started singing along.

I fought it for a long time now

While drowning in a river of denial

I washed up, fixed up, picked up all my broken things

'Cause you left me, police tape, chalk line

Tequila shots in the dark scene of the crime

Suburban living with a feeling that I'm giving up everything for you

Oh, oh, oh, how was I supposed to know

That you were oh, oh, over me

I think that I should go (GO!)

Something's telling me to leave but I won't

'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I don't

"Do you want to ply it tonight?" Charlie asked as he took Tommy's guitar and walked on stage.

"Um, hell yes!" I said.

"Okay, I'll add it to the set list. Also, I wasn't sure if you still wanted to cover therapy tonight?" he asked.

"Yea I'll do it." I said.

"Sound good I'll let the guys know. The meet& greet kids are coming in now just FYI."

"Okay, thanks Charlie." I said and gave him a quick hug before jumping off stage and walking over to the doors. I took a ton of pictures and talked to a ton of kids which was nice. They were all super nice and thank god there were no creepy people today. Some wanted me to sign shirts and others even gave me gifts. I got a stuffed Ravens teddy bear from one guy and a "Proud to be from Maryland" bumper sticker from another girl. After the hour I had with them Charlie came out to get me and took me to my dressing room to get ready. It was already five so I was going to have to hurry fast. I changed into the cream dress and put on my black flats. Then I swept my bangs over to one side and put the rest of my hair up in a low bun. I finished with red lipstick and black eyeliner. I was putting the finishing touches on my makeup when Cassadee knocked on my door.

"Good news, Jack is afraid to talk to you near everyone so he is only coming for the show tonight. So he won't be here when everyone else is." She said. I instantly felt a weight be taken off my shoulders and I let out a deep breath.

"Thank god!" I said and stood up from my makeup chair and smoothed out my dress.

"Looking good." She said.

"Hey, I have to make him feel bad about something." I said and followed her out to the lobby of the venue where we were meeting up with them. We sat on the couches that lined the walls until we heard voices coming from the main doors. Rian waked in first and Cass literally ran into his arms. He smiled his big Rian smiled and hugged her. Alex came in after him followed by Lisa and Zack. I ran up to Lisa and gave her a huge hug.

"I missed you girly." She said.

"Oh I missed you too." I said and moved on to give Alex a quick hug and kiss before I got swallowed up in a hug bear hug from Zack.

"Liz!" he said and spun me around.

"Zack, put me down" I said and he obliged. After I was back on two feet I walked with Lisa back to my dressing room. She sat down on the couch and I turned around my makeup chair to face her.

"How are you baby lady?" I asked.

"Amazing. I have been eating like you would not believe and I've been a little bit more moody than usual, plus I've been sleeping a lot but that all comes with this. How are you?" she asked.

"Awesome." I said and she looked at me with her best "really?" face. "Okay, fine; I've been a red hot mess because . . . yea he cheated on me. I haven't talked to him since and I don't even know how he feels about the whole thing because I've been gone the whole time; and now he's coming to my show tonight where I'm singing songs about how much I loved him and he's going to think I'm okay, but really I'm not." I said and took a shaky deep breath. "I'm not over him. I still love him."

"Liz he is such and ass though." Lisa said.

"I know he is but that's not the Jack I know. He made a mistake."

"Are you going to take him back?"

"I want to so badly but I know I'll just get hurt again." I said and looked down.

"You made the right choice." Lisa said and stood up to hug me. "Plus you look super hot." She added with a laugh.

"Thanks." I said. I touched up my makeup and we talked about the baby until Charlie came to get me with Alex. I hugged them both and he took her to their seats in the private balcony. My stomach started to turn as the intro music started to play and kids started to scream. I put my in- ear monitors in and grabbed my mic from Charlie. My band went out in front of me and I jumped on stage when it was my turn. Even though I was nervous I couldn't help but smile at all the kids. I looked up at the balcony during the guitar solo and didn't see him but made eye contact with Lisa who looked worried.

She moved around a little bit and there he was. My worst nightmare looked me straight in the eye. He smiled at me and I just looked away. I kept going to the end of the concert and it was time for the All Time Low songs.

"Is everybody having a good time?" I asked and everybody screamed. Charlie brought out a barstool and my . Tommy sat down next to me with his guitar. I looked up at the balcony again and he was still there.

"Okay everyone, there is a very special band from this great state of Maryland that I know and love and there name is All Time Low. Have you guys heard of them?" I asked and people cheered. "Okay we are going to cover a song by them is that okay?" I asked. People cheered and got louder when Tommy played the intro to therapy. I took a deep breath and started to sing.

My ship went down, in a sea of sound.

When I woke up alone I had everything;

A handful of moments, I wished I could change,

And a tongue like a nightmare, that cut like a blade.

In a city of fools, I was careful and cool,

But they tore me apart, like a hurricane.

A handful of moments, I wished I could change,

But I was carried away.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,

But I'm smiling at everything.

Therapy, you were never a friend to me,

And you can keep all your misery.

My lungs gave out, as I faced the crowd.

I think that keeping this up could be dangerous.

I'm flesh and bone, I'm a rolling stone,

and the experts say I'm delirious.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,

But I'm smiling at everything.

Therapy, you were never a friend to me,

You can take back your misery.

I stopped to take another deep breath and stood up from my stool and looked straight at Jack as I sang the next verse.

Arrogant boy, love yourself so no one has to.

They're better off without you.

Arrogant boy, cause a scene like you're supposed to.

They'll fall asleep without you.

You're lucky if your memory remains.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,

But I'm smiling at everything.

Therapy, you were never a friend to me,

You can take back your misery.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,

But I'm smiling at everything.

Therapy, you were never a friend to me,

You can choke on your misery.

I started to get a little teary at the end but then the into too Damned If I Do Ya started and I perked up, but looked away from Jack.

I fought it for a long time now

While drowning in a river of denial

I washed up, fixed up, picked up all my broken things

'Cause you left me, police tape, chalk line

Tequila shots in the dark scene of the crime

Suburban living with a feeling that I'm giving up

everything for you

Oh, oh, oh, how was I supposed to know

That you were oh, oh, over me

I think that I should go (GO!)

Something's telling me to leave but I won't

'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I don't

It took a lot to take you home

One stupid call and I end up alone

You're made up, dressed up, messed up

Plans I set in stone

But you made me do when I don't like

Dancing in the alley with the street rat nightlife

Can't keep living with a feeling that I'm giving up everything for you

Oh, oh, oh, how was I supposed to know

That you were oh, oh, over me

I think that I should go (GO!)

Something's telling me to leave but I wont

'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I don't

Make a fool of myself when you hang around

When you're gone

I'm a match that's burning out

Could have been, should've done, what I said I was going to do

(Said that I would do)

But I never promised you

(But I never promised you, promised you)

Oh, oh, oh, how was I supposed to know

That you were oh, oh, over me

I think that I should go (GO!)

It never took a fool to see the things that I won't

'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I do ya

Oh, oh, oh, how was I supposed to know

('Cause you left me, police tape chalk line)

That you were oh, oh, over me I think that I should go

(Tequila shots in the dark scene of the crime)

Something's telling me to leave but I won't

'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I d-d-d-d

Damned if I do ya, damned if I don't

I finished the song and did a big bow with the guys and walked off stage. I walked into my dressing room and started to wipe sweat off my face. A few minutes later there was a knock at my door and everyone walked in I was swamped with hugs from everyone. I got a ton of flowers from Zack and Rian brought me a huge thing of Baltimore crab. After a few minutes of talking I was about to user everyone out when he walked in. I was mid- sentence talking to everyone when I stopped and looked at him. Everyone else looked up too and saw him.

"We'll leave now." Alex said and everyone got up and left with him. Then there were two.
