What Could Have Been
Chapter 2
A few weeks later Andrew and Stephanie return from their honeymoon. They had gone to Aruba and had loads of 'fun'. Right now they were just arriving at the arena.
"Baby, I'm gonna go get some water, do you want any?" Stephanie asks her husband. "Sure, thanks. I'm just going to go find out where our locker room is and I'll see you there." He kisses her head lightly and goes off in search of their room.
Stephanie heads off to find catering to gets the waters. As she walks down the hallway she gets many smiles and 'congratulations' from many people. She was thankful that she had so many people that cared, but she wished that they would just back off and let her go get the damn water. But as she passed one man he didn't say anything. He just looked her over and grinned. She did look stunning to night. She had on a lavender tank top and black jeans. Her hair was pinned up in a loose bun with some strands falling out and her make up was very subtle. Hunter couldn't help but fall even more in love with her. She walked over to where he was standing and waved her hand in front of his face. He was so spacing out right now. "
Earth to Hunter."
"Huh? What?" he asks, confused
"You were staring at me, kinda freaky if you ask me." She laughed. Her and Hunter had always got along backstage. They weren't the best friends but they talked to each other occasionally.
"Oh, sorry. I was uh..." he stuttered.
"Shhh," she whispers, putting her finger on his lips, "Don't say anything, you'll only make your self sound dumb. And we don't want that now do we?"
"No, I don't think that we do." He whispers back, against her finger.
" Good... I have to go get water. I'll see you later?" "You know you will, bye Stephie." And with that, she leaves in search of catering.
Test is in his and Stephanie's locker room looking at a picture of them together. He wanted to love her. He really did. She had all the qualities that he wanted in a girl, but he just couldn't love her. His heart was with somebody else, but that person would never take him back. He had been a jerk and ass hole. There, he admitted it. But Stephanie was just like her, in every way. Except that she wasn't her. He guessed that he would have to make due with Stephanie. She was the next best thing after all. He quietly put the picture back away as he heard Stephanie's footsteps right outside their door.
"Hey Drew. Here's your water." She hands him the ice-cold beverage and sits down on the couch next to him.
"Thanks." He cracks open the top and takes a long sip.
"So, what did you want to do before the show starts?"
"I don't know, I was just planning on hanging out back here. If that's okay with you that is."
"Oh yeah, it's fine. But I'm gonna go see somebody. I'll be back in a little while."
"Okay, bye." He kisses her forehead and goes off to find her locker room. He needed to have a talk with her before he could completely move on. He just had to.
Remember to leave me a review. Thanks guys!
