R&R People it's all about the Reading&Reviewing!
Previously Drone's POV
Moving from place to place make little time to see or even meet other people. I payed hotels extra to keep my name out of the books but even then it was hard to keep hidden. Even just walking down the street I could be recognized by girls and then swarmed like bees to a hive. I listened to the news incase anything about Chloe was revealed but nothing came through, I still got texts from the band mostly from Daniel telling me to get my ass back here. Lani was the only one out of the few who texted me to keep updated on what was going on. Daniel in his first year of collage, Tori's brother Derek caught up to his last year trying to become a better man for Chloe when she woke up apparently he was adamant that she was going to. I'm glad he sounded like the kind of guy she would want, but if she never woke up she'd never know and that made me upset. Getting up off my bed I walked to the window looking out over the main street in the small Italian town I was staying in. Even here I was famous as someone pointed up to my room and many others started to look as well, sighing I backed away from my window before someone threw a present of worse climbed up into my room! I looked at my phone thinking maybe calling Karan wouldn't be that bad just hearing his voice for a bit, it wouldn't be that long. I picked up my phone his number etched in my mind, but as I went to the number pad on my iPhone I couldn't type it in. I sighed dropping it on my bed I walked to the shower to clear my mind of these thought.
Derek POV
Exams were coming off and my boss was letting me have two weeks off before them to study he knows how important it is to me. I was studying in the library by myself like usual when I heard someone pull a chair out and sit down beside me,
"Hey you're Derek Souza right?" I looked up to see a girl with bright blue eyes that caused me to think of Chloe she had pale blonde hair though unlike Chloe's strawberry blonde locks,
"Yeah." I replied rather rudely and she smiled,
"My name is Tina I'm in your biology class." I nodded at her wishing she'd just go away, "do you think you could help me study?" She asked and I looked at her,
"I'm involved with someone." I told her rudely again and she blushed,
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to come on that way I'm involved as well,"
"Then why are you talking to me?" I asked and she smiled,
"Well I really do need help studying and I heard you were really smart." I nodded turning my chair to face her slightly,
"All right with what?" I asked.
Tori's POV
Another date with Po and I was nervous. Nervous. Something I never thought I could be, I was strong not weak! Getting dressed I waited for the doorbell to ring sitting down on my bed I fiddled with my curled hair. The clock showed 6:00 the time of our date and Po was usually early or right on time but nothing happened as a minute passed followed by another one. I sat there waiting for fifteen minutes when the door downstairs opened and I rushed to the staircase to see it was just Derek,
"Hey Tori thought you had a date with Po tonight." He said and I sighed nodding,
"I thought I did too."
"You look nice if that counts for anything." I smiled at him,
"It does thank you." I replied to him and he smiled,
"Traffic is terrible today maybe it's slowing him down." I nodded grasping onto the thread of hope, I'd actually begun to like Po. He was a gentleman, sweet and kind to me like no other guy before. I jumped when the doorbell rang and Derek opened the door, "hey Po traffic get you?" he asked as I walked the rest of the way down the staircase.
"Yeah," He replied and I pushed Derek out of the way he moved an inch, "hey Tori sorry I'm late." I smiled,
"It's alright." I replied and he smiled back at me taking my hand, "don't wait up Derek." I called out to him as we walked away,
"Like I would." He replied closing the door and I smiled somethings won't change but even then Derek will be there for me.
Daniel's POV
Another day of classes and I was dead tired. The search for Drone was still on going, Lani and I were leaving tomorrow for two weeks. Yeah I know it was to look for Drone but I couldn't wait to spend a trip with just Lani and I. When the band went on trips it was Drone, Karan and I in one room Karan and I shared one bed and Drone got the pullout so that Karan wouldn't bring any girls over. The girls shared the other room so I never got the night alone with Lani, but on this trip it'd be just the two of us in one bed. I rolled my eyes at my stupidity I sounded like a girl, well according to Chloe I always acted like a girl.
"Daniel, Daniel." I looked up to see one of my classmates Nick standing over me, "dude class is over." I looked around to find that he was right,
"Oh."
"You spaced out man," I nodded and Nick grinned,
"Your girlfriend is waiting outside." With that I jumped up gathering my stuff and grabbing my backpack heading out the door I turned the corner to see Lani standing there coffees in hand one held out towards me.
"Here," she said and I took it in my empty hand wrapping the same arm around her neck,
"Thanks love." I told her and she blushed,
"Least I could do." I smiled and kissed the top of her head, "I was on my way to visit Chloe thought you might want to join." I nodded stiffly it was hard for me to think of my little Chloe in that big hospital bed. Connected to all those tubes just to keep her alive,
"Yeah I'd like to."
Derek's POV
"Derek man I can't do it!" Simon freaked out as I picked up my phone,
"Can't do what?" I asked groaning slightly as I realized I was now involved with whatever problem Simon was having,
"I can't propose to her!" Simon yelled through the phone making my ears ring,
"Calm down Simon." I told him, "don't stress about it. If it's meant to be you'll know what to do."
"I want it to be perfect!" He replied,
"Well does Roxy like big gestures?" I asked and I heard him hum as he thought it over, he really was a geek,
"Not really she's more of a simple person, like it has to be special like a night out or something can't just pop the question randomly." I tuned out as he went on and on naming all these different scenarios.
"Simon!" I interrupted his beach proposal dream,
"Yes?" He replied,
"I think anything you do will be special to her, she loves you don't stress about it."
"But what ring do I get her!"
"She'd like anything as long as you don't give her some cheep knock off." I told him and I heard him scoff,
"Derek their's no way I'd buy a knock off." I rolled my eyes, a cheep knock off sounded just like what Simon would do. I heard a door open and close in the background, "gotta go bro call you tomorrow." He hung before I could reply. Sighing I stood up and went to to bed.
Today was Sunday. My day with Chloe. Getting up I went to the kitchen pouring myself a cup of coffee and grabbing the news paper. It was early, seven o-clock in the morning and I looked up to as Tori walked into the room. She was wearing long purple and black striped pajamas pants
"You bringing her more flowers?" Tori asked and I nodded,
"Yeah I do every Sunday."
"Cool," She grabbed herself a glass of coffee and sat across from me, "so you have exams next week?" She asked and I nodded,
"Yeah." She sat down and stared at me intensely,
"Derek." She paused after a few minutes, "it's almost Christmas." I sighed looking down,
"I know." I replied, "she's been in there for almost four months now."
"Four months." She whispered and I nodded. I never thought about it but if it was hard for me to go through life without Chloe it had to be two times as hard for Tori. Even when Chloe and I broke up Tori was there for her and I knew how much Tori wanted to share her news of Po with someone other then his sister,
"Tori, I know you want to talk to her." Tori looked up at me and smiled weakly,
"Don't we all?" She asked and I nodded my throat thick I had to focus so I could continue our conversation,
"You can write to her." I offered and Tori watched me intensely, "write a letter to her and save them for when she wakes up." Tori's breath caught before she nodded vigorously,
"Paper and pens are in my office." I told her and she was gone in a milli-second. I stood up putting my coffee in a to go cup before heading out to my car to visit my girlfriend.
Drone's POV
I hadn't heard anything from anyone, but why would I? I mean I wanted to, I really did. I kept myself updated when I could, the news didn't have much to say about them. Chloe wasn't awake and Christmas was coming back. The time for family and friends. Packing my bags I knew that even if it was for a little while I had to visit them for Christmas. I sighed getting my bags on a plane I picked up a pay phone calling Lani.
"Hello?" Her bright cheery voice answered and I took a breath, "is someone there?"
"Yeah, it's me." I heard her gasp before the phone beeped and she was telling someone that it was me,
"Drone?" A deeper voice asked, Daniel.
"Hey." I heard a sigh of relief before he went on to lecture me.
"Are you even listening to me!" He screamed and I snorted,
"Nope." He groaned,
"We've all been worried."
"No you haven't." I muttered and he growled,
"How would you know you haven't even bothered to call us!" Daniel snapped angrily and I sighed,
"And everyone but Karan and Chloe called me." There was silence and I sighed, "but you can't blame Chloe." I whispered it and Daniel growled,
"You should have been here." Daniel whispered, "especially for Karan." My breath caught,
"Is he okay?" I asked worried but no one replied.
"Come home Drone." Lani was on the phone again and I sighed.
"Is he okay!"
"He's…I haven't heard from him." She told me and I swallowed,
"I'll be home for Christmas." I told him and she let out a breath.
"We'll be waiting."
A/N- Hope this was good.
