Chapter Six

Breyana arrived in Chicago around 7:00 pm. The boys were already at the venue due to the concert that was starting at 7:30. When Breyana arrived at the hotel, she had just enough time to change and grab a piece of fruit from the table. When she went down to the lobby, there was AJ's bodygaurd waiting for her. She jumped into the van and was whisked away to the venue. Once she arrived, the boys were already on stage. AJ had reserved a front row seat for Breyana so his bodygaurd escorted her to it. Once seated, she couldn't wait until AJ came around to her side of the stage. Nick and the others had already seen that she was there. As AJ made his way to her side of the stage, he caught a glimpse of her and yelled..."B, where have you been"? Brian replied, "I'm over here man"!! They both laughed because all the guys knew that AJ was talking to Breyana and not Brian.

AJ felt much better now that Breyana was there. He was more at ease. He couldn't help but worry when he didn't see her. As the concert went on, Breyana couldn't take her eyes off AJ. She didn't realize until that moment how much she actually missed him. As Breyana was daydreaming about AJ, she heard AJ talking in between songs saying that the next song meant a great deal to him and had a special meaning and then he proceeded to say "I love you "B"!! Jokingly Brian said, "I love you too AJ". Breyana was shocked at what she heard, she wasn't even sure if she heard it. She then looked up into AJ's eyes and saw that he meant it. The song that AJ had been talking about was "It's Gotta Be You". After the concert had ended, Breyana went back to the hotel to wait for AJ. It took him awhile to get there due to meet and greets and interviews. When AJ finally returned it was around 2:00 in the morning and Breyana had fallen asleep on the couch. AJ just stood there watching her sleep for about twenty minutes before he decided to wake her up. As she slept she felt the softest lips brush against her cheek. She opened her eyes to see AJ standing above her. As she fluttered her eyes to try to focus them AJ sat on the floor beside the couch. He wanted to ask her about what he had said to her at the concert but wasn't sure how to bring it up. "Alex" Breyana said. "What" AJ said while shifting his glance onto her. Breyana couldn't resist AJ's eyes, they were so powerful. He would look at her as if he was looking into her soul. Breyana went on to say that she thought what he did for her at the concert tonight was wonderful. AJ was hoping Breyana would return those three words to him, but he didn't hear them. There was an awkward silence left. Neither one knew what to say. AJ felt hurt because he exposed his heart to Breyana and it seemed not to make an effect. Breyana on the other hand wanted to tell AJ how she felt but didn't want to risk getting hurt again.

Breyana finally spoke up and asked AJ where he wanted to sleep, the bed or the couch. AJ said that he would give her the bed and he would stay on the couch. As the night went on, they both found it hard to sleep. AJ could hear that Breyana was tossing and turning and he couldn't get comfortable on the couch. AJ layed there thinking..."I hope I'm doing the right thing here. I really don't want to put myself out there to be made a fool of." Meanwhile, Breyana was laying in bed thinking "I really want to tell him I love him but will it really make a difference? What if he finds someone else?" Soon sleep crept over both of them.

The next day they were woken up by banging on AJ's door. They both heard a voice yell "Hey are you guys awake in there??" AJ yelled at Howie to shut up. Breyana just pulled the covers over her head and wished she had gotten more sleep. AJ got up and let Howie in the room and asked what he wanted. Howie said that they were all going to the Navy Pier and wanted to know if AJ and Breyana were going as well. AJ told Howie that he didn't plan on it and that he wanted to spend time alone with "B". Breyana thought to herself..."good, maybe I can get more sleep." Howie left and AJ went back to laying on the couch. He had the worst neck ache from the couch and couldn't take much more of it. Finally he said aloud...."Screw it, I can't stand this couch anymore, move over "B". AJ climbed into the bed with Breyana. As they both layed there, AJ asked Breyana if she was still mad at him and she replied "No". AJ proceeded to ask her why she was keeping her distance from him. Breyana told AJ that she was afraid to get really close to him. She didn't want to put her heart out there to get it smashed by a Pop Stars flirtasious ways. AJ was taken aback by what Breyana said. He reminded her that he said he was sorry and even told her that he loved her last night. Breyana just layed there in silence. She wanted to tell him so much about how she felt. After a few minutes of silence AJ finally said to Breyana, "I'm not trying to pressure you into saying something you're not ready to say, just know that this is how I feel and when you are ready, I'll be here". That made Breyana feel better. Both of them were still exhausted from their restless night of sleep and decided to just lay around and cuddle. Soon enough they both fell asleep in each other's arms.
