.:Back To Your Heart-Chapter 12:.
Chapter Twelve

"Your show last night was wonderful," Leighanne said thoughtfully.

"Every happy song was about you and me and every sad song is the way I'll feel without you. Oh, and the songs like 'Don't Want You Back' are how I will never feel about you."

"Don't make this any harder than it has to be."

"Okay, but it is hard. Do you need any help packing?"

"Nope, this is my last suitcase."

"I can't believe they did this!"

"Baby, it was all jealousy and it's for our safety."

"I know. You're right, but I wish you could stay."

"So do I."

"This is so hard!"

"Why? We've done this before."

"Yeah, but before it was for other reasons besides the fans. And we weren't engaged before."

"Come on, it's time to go to the airport."

"Okay, there should be a car outside waiting for us."

"Should I call for a bell boy?"

"No, I'll get the other guys to help carry your suitcases. Besides, I'm sure they will want to say good-bye to you."

"Okay, I'm all set to go."

They opened their door and propped it open with a suitcase. Then they each went to knock on the other guys' doors. The six of them congregated in the doorway of Brian and Leighanne's room. Each grabbed a suitcase or bag and walked over to the elevator.

"Promise me you won't cry," Leighanne whispered in Brian's ear.

"Only if you can do the same," he responded sadly.

She hesitates as she thought about what she had to promise. "Okay, I promise."

"Then I do, too."

They got down to the main floor and walked out to find about twenty fans waiting outside, but no sign of a car. They all sat down to wait in the lobby.

Brian and Leighanne sat close together, engaged in their own personal conversation.

"I still can't believe this is happening. I can't believe they racked up the nerve to do this."

"You really have to calm down, Brian. Just keep one thought in your mind for the rest of the tour. We're going to get married on December 26, and they can't stop us."

"Car's here!" A.J. interrupted.

They both got up and walked into the situation that made both of their hearts shatter.
