Bulletproof Love

Emily’s POV:

“Emily! Tell your phone to shut up!” Tony yelled in his morning voice, cute. I untangled myself from his arms and told him to go back to bed. I walked into his kitchen and answered my phone.

“Is this Emily Fuentes?” a man’s voice asked.

“Um, this is her” I said still unsure of who he was.

“Oh well I apologize for calling at such an early hour. I am James Woodridge; I am a representative from Hopeless Records” oh my god.

“Nice to meet you Mr. Woodridge” I said with a shaky voice.

“Please, call me James. Anyways I am calling on behalf of your drumming at Warped Tour. You played a few shows is that correct?”

“Yes that is correct” I said.

“Oh well wonderful! I have seen a few videos of your performance and was wondering if you would be interested in touring with a band from Hopeless?”

“Oh my god, of course!”

“Great to hear! The band goes on tour soon and their drummer just got into a major accident. I thought you would be the perfect person to ask to fill in!” he explained.

“Oh my gosh, thank you so much! When should I fly out?”

“If you could fly out to Maryland on Thursday that would be great! We will email you your plane ticket, thank you again for being available on such short notice Emily”

“Thank you once again, I look forward to working with you” I said then hung up. I must have been smiling like an idiot.

“Good news?” Tony asked.

“Oh my god you’ll never guess! I am going to go on tour with some band as their drummer!” I said. Tony picked me up and spun me around while planting kisses all over my face.

“I am so proud of you Em!” he said as he set me down.

“Do you know what this means?” I asked Tony shook his head. “Celebratory pancakes!” I laughed and started digging through the cabinets.

We were sitting at our table eating when Jaime came running up the stairs.

“Nice sex hair” Tony commented.

“Yeah, you to Tone” he laughed as he joined us at the table.

“So Jaime guess what” I said excitedly.

“You’re pregnant?” he said like he was already planning the baby shower.

“No, but close! I am going on tour with a band as their drummer!” he nearly flew out of his seat and into my food.

“This means we need to plan a going away party!” he yelled. I nodded and smiled because I am way to lucky to have these people in my life.


“Do you want it to be a surprise party?” Jaime asked me.

“Jaime, I already know!” I laughed.

“You can pretend you didn’t”

“I think it’s okay without the surprise part” I laughed. “Can we get something to eat? We have been at this for hours” I was so hungry.

“Chinese good?” he asked, I nodded and we got into his car.

We sat in a small booth across from each other.

“Himes, you okay?” I asked.

“Yeah, it’s just that, you’re leaving and I don’t want you to forget about us.” He said.

“Okay, Jaime first of all, you’re in a band with my brothers. Second I couldn’t forget you even if I wanted to” I said completely honest.

“Promise?” he said.

“You will always be my best friend” I said.
