One Hundred Sleepless Nights....

Chapter Six

I instantly calm down when Vic puts his arm around my waist and pulls me closer to his side, but start panicking once again as we approach the entrance to the small cafe we're meeting everyone at. Vic holds the door for me like a true gentleman, but doesn't remove his arm from around me. We step inside, and Vic guides me to a large table in the corner of the small room. There at the table sit Mike, Jaime, Tony, Kellin, and Kellin's girlfriend. Vic and I sit down, and he nonchalantly says, "Hey everyone." He removes his arm from my waist, but then holds my hand and sits them openly on top of the table.
Everyone replies, "Hey," while looking at me curiously, expect one. Tony beams at me.
"Hey Essence!" he warmly greets me while reaching across the table for a hug.
I hug him back, and after a moment Vic says, "Guys, this is Essence."
Vic clears his throat pointedly at Tony's lengthy hug, and I let go, laughing. Everyone laughs, and then Mike says, "Hey, nice to meet you."
Katelynne, Kellin's girlfriend, scoots closer to me, sitting on my left side. With a mischievous grin on her face, she asks, "So, Essence, how'd you manage to snag our boy Vic here?"
I can't help but giggle when she winks at me, clearly messing around. I reply, wanting an answer from Vic, "I've actually been wondering that myself."
Everyone laughs at my response, and Vic kisses me softly on the cheek. "I would be an idiot to not want to be with her," he says, earning a chorus of awe's from the table and a blush from me.
Jaime laughs, and says, "Well, any girl that can get Vic to say something like that must be pretty awesome." He reaches across the table and hugs me, as Tony had before, but makes the hug much quicker.
Vic chuckles, and jokingly inquires, "What's up with everyone being all over my girl?"
Mike, Jaime, and Kellin put their hands up in defense, looking like the police had caught them robbing a bank. They all say, at the same time, "She's all yours."
Tony grins deviously, and turns towards the boys. "Speak for yourselves," he says playfully, turning to face me and smile.
Vic laughs, and turns towards me. "I'll be back," he says, "I'm gonna go get us some food." I nod, and he gives me a quick, but sweet, kiss before walking up to the counter.
"So, how come we haven't heard of you before?" Kellin asks, smiling widely at me and flipping his long black hair out of his eyes.
"Um, well," I glance at Tony before shyly continuing. "Tony introduced me to Vic last night, after they performed." I blush, and Tony nods, confirming what I've said.
Kellin, with a look of shock on his face, replies, "Wow, I'm surprised. He doesn't act this way about a girl he's dated for months, let alone a night. And he normally doesn't introduce us for at least a month, sometimes more."
I blush, my face heating up. "You're probably just imagining it," I reply doubtfully, "There's no way-"
I'm cut off by Mike saying, "No, Kellin's right. I'm his brother, I should know. He must really like you."
I start to respond, but stop when Vic sits down on my right, sliding a coffee and a chocolate iced donut towards me.
"Are you okay?" he asks, frowning. "They're not embarrassing you, are they?"
"No, I'm fine," I respond, "Why?"
"You're blushing a lot," he says, chuckling.
I take a sip of coffee, blushing darker. Everyone laughs kindheartedly, and Katelynne says, "We weren't, honest. Just asking her how you two lovebirds met." She smiles at us, and I start to get more comfortable with being here. This isn't as bad as I'd thought it'd be.
Tony says proudly, "Yeah, you're welcome, Vic."
I laugh, and Vic kisses me on the cheek. "I definitely owe you one," he says appreciatively.
We finish having breakfast, and hang out for awhile. I get to know everyone much better, and when we are all ready to leave, I feel like I belong there. Like they all accept me. I'm swarmed by loving hugs, first by Katelynne. She squeezes me quickly, and then writes her cell phone number on my hand in pink pen. "Text me, sweetheart!" she exclaims perkily before hugging me once more. Then Kellin gives me a quick hug before leaving with Katelynne, his arm around her waist.
Mike and Jaime then come, both hugging me at once. They squeez me super tight, and I manage to choke out, "Guys...I...I can't breathe." They both burst into laughter and release me, giving me beaming grins before pulling Vic into a bro hug. Finally, Tony comes over and wraps his arms around me, giving me a long bear hug. Eventually, he pulls away reluctantly, and Vic grabs my hand. All five of us walk out to the small parking lot together, and the guys walk to their cars, closer to the cafe than Vic's.
Before climbing into his car, Mike calls out, "Essence! Get us guy's numbers from Vic and text us, okay?" He then swiftly gets into his car and drives away. Vic and I walk the short distance to his car, his arm now placed around my waist.
"That went better than I thought it would," I say, breaking the silence.
Vic sighs, and replies, "I'd say," in a stressed tone.
I frown, and wonder what I did wrong. "What's wrong?" I ask, concerned and nervous.
He runs his hand through his hair, and answers, "Yeah, everything was great. I'm really happy everyone likes you, and you get along with everyone. But Tony seems to like you a little too much." We arrive at his car, and he turns towards me, looking upset.
Wow, I didn't think of it that way. I only thought he was just being super nice... But Vic knows Tony best. I sigh, upset. Vic seems like he's worried about Tony sweeping me off my feet or something. He looks down at his feet, twiddling his thumbs.
I gently pull his face so he's looking at me. "Hey, Tony doesn't matter to me...you do. Okay?" I say, smiling at him softly, and looking into his eyes.
He grins at me, and kisses me deeply, holding the side of my face gently in his hand. We eventually both pull away, and climb into Vic's car to head back to his hotel.
