The other thread got really messed up so I just made a new thread, but it's the same story!

Chapter Ten;
I rested my head on the cold glass window, it was raining outside now. The tour bus moved slowly along the wet streets of Chicago, we would be stopping in front of the Four Seasons soon. I felt a gentle hand on my shoulder. I looked up into Mrs. Jonas' eyes.
"Hey, you okay?" She asked me with a welcoming and bright smile, it reminded me of the one that she gave me when we first met.
"Yeah, I'm fine," I lied to her, I shouldn't have. Mrs. Jonas was probably one of the nicest people I've ever met.
"Okay, the Four Seasons is around here somewhere I think," she said as she took a spot next to me on the couch. Joe was the first to come out of the back, he had my red suitcase in tow.
"This is yours, I believe," he said with a fake but cheerly English accent. I smiled sadly at him. I couldn't believe I had to leave him, his big brown eyes, his perfect heart shaped face.
"Are you all set?" Kevin asked appearing out of the back as well.
"Yeah, I'm packed and ready to go," I replied not wanting to comprehend my words. I knew I had to accept the fact that I wouldn't see these boys anymore.
"Do you have to go?" Joe asked playfully as he sat down next to me. I placed my head on his shoulder and sighed.
"Yeah, I do," I responded taking in the slight cologne he had on. He put his head down on mine and it made me smile. I liked to smile, it had been something that I used to take advantage of. Now, it's something that I'm very grateful of.
"Go get your brother, we're here," Mrs. Jonas told Kevin as we pulled up in front of the giant Four Seasons. I lifted my head and looked out the window again. It looked so elegant and people happily exited out of it even though it was raining. I found myself holding Joe's hand as he pulled me off the couch. I reached for my suitcase but Nick already had it in his hand.
"I got this," he smiled. I looked at him and then looked up at Joe, how could I ever pick which one I liked better? My mind battled that question the whole day. Which one do I like? I didn't know, both of them were so amazing in different ways. I put my hood on my head as I was guided out the door by Joe. We still held hands. Nick shortly followed along with Mrs. Jonas, Frankie, and Kevin.
"This is it, guys," I announced taking my hand back. I hugged Mrs. Jonas first, I was going to miss her motherly ways. It was incredible how one person changed my life. Frankie hugged me tightly, I almost cried. He held on tightly to my legs not letting me move to the next person. Kevin was the third person I got to hug. He enveloped me in a big bear hug.
"Be good, learn some more about us," he joked as we let go. I smiled up at him and looked over at Joe and Nick. Nick nervously stuffed his hands in his pockets as he buried his head farther into his hoodie. I moved over to him. My mind raced with all the things that I was going to miss about him.
"Hey, you," I said as I awkwardly stood in front of him. He grinned at me, I shyly smiled back. He held his arms out to me and I gratefully wrapped myself into them. His hold was tight but yet not suffocating. His hands rubbed my back and he instantly made me miss him. I was amazed how safe and comfortable I was in his arms. When we pulled back I wanted to stare at his eyes forever.
"We'll see eachother again, I promise," he whispered before I left. I reluctantly let go of Nick's arms to walk over to Joe.
"A-izzle!" He greeted me, the rain silently dripped from the edges of his hood. He pulled me into his arms before I could respond to his eager greeting. His hug was different then Nick's. His arms held me tightly and I could feel his arms flex against my own. His hug was exciting and yet humble, it made me want more of Joe. It was easily in the running for the best hug I've ever recieved; Nick's was, too. I smiled at him as we pulled away from eachother.
"Are you going to miss me?" He asked jokingly but I knew he wasn't completly taking it as one. His smile was bright and warm, it was hard admiting to myself it might be the last time for a long time that I would see it.
"Of course!" I exclaimed still loosely wrapped in his arms. Mrs. Jonas cleared her throat and it snapped me back to what I was doing. I took a step back from Joe and smiled at the whole group.
"I'm going to miss you guys," I stated before picking my suitcase and heading towards the large oak doors of the hotel. I took one last look at them before I walked into the main lobby. I saw them climb into the bus through the large window. Joe was the last one to catch my eye, he smiled and that was when tears began to roll down my face.
