The med's just hyped him up. Unfortunately.
"These things are hectic backstage." He said, shaking his head like it was the most honest thing he'd ever said.
Which was a lie. It was pretty hectic but everyone knew their place and it worked.
"I know…I've been at these things several times."
Amanda bit her nails furiously.
I patted her back and locked my arm with hers. Matt led us to the dressing rooms.
"Jess?"
I turned around, Jeff was standing behind me. A big grin on his face.
I smiled sheepishly.
"What are you doin' here?" He asked.
It felt like it did when we first met. Like we were afraid to touch each other because we knew the effect we had. It was like heroin, like he told me. The touch of his skin on mine or the way he whispered in my ear made me weak at the knees. Literally.
"Matt drug us here."
He smiled and took a step closer to me.
"I'm glad."
I nodded.
"It's a joyous occasion!" He said happily. Which made me laugh.
"Dork." I replied.
"Am not."
I lowered my eyes, "Yes you are."
"I know, but you love it." He said with a big smile plastered on his face.
I nodded.
"Sure do!"
Its like an addiction, me and him. It's like I know he's bad for me. I know I'm good for him. Which helps me stay with him…but without a shadow of a doubt I love him. If this isn't love what is?
