Can You Tell From the Look In Her Eyes?
The Only Way I'll Really Smile is if You Cut Me Ear to Ear
I boarded the plane at 6:34 with Gavin by my side. I was wearing an old BMTH shirt from when the band first started along with some Pink sweats. (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=86800020) We had talked about nothing since 4, and it was nice. Nice not having to think about Oli or breaking up, or anything else.
"Hey, Car, we're here!" He yelled, waking me up from my dreamless sleep.
My eyes slowly cracked open, revealing a long line of passengers slowly getting off our plane. Gavin had my carry on along with his on his shoulders and was offering me his hand. I took it, and he helped me up. My knees were weak from the fact that I hadn't walked around for quite a few hours.
We walked out of the terminal to the baggage claim, which took forever. Then, we headed towards the waiting area where Gavin was attacked by a group of Mexicans.
"Hey, Whiskeyhands!" Gavin yelled, bro-hugging the tallest of the four with a medusa piercing.
"Yo! Dance!" He yelled back. I figured he'd tell me later.
The other guys all hugged and high-fived Gavin.
"Hey, Gav! Who's this pretty lady?" Asked the one with huge dimples and spiky hair. They all looked my way.
"I'm Carter," I blushed. "Gavin and I have been best friends since our junior year."
"Nice to meet you, Carter. I'm Jaime," smiled the spiky-haired one, making his dimples really show. He kissed my hand and Gavin smacked him in the arm.
"She's also dating Oliver Sykes," he said, daring me to say more.
"Not very much longer if he doesn't stop being an ass," I smirked.
"Well, I'm Vic," smiled the shorter one with shoulder-length brown hair, rubbing his neck.
"I'm Ruby and this is my boyfriend Mike" said a girl about my age, stepping out from behind Mike. "We're gonne be best friends, I know it," she winked.
Mike kind of gave me a 'sup' nod, and Jaime took my bags as we walked out to the bus.
Jaime helped me carry all my luggage to my bunk. It was a top one, because I loved top bunks and no one else wanted one. After Jaime left me to get set up, Ruby came back there and sat cross-legged in my bunk with me.
She was super pretty. She had a died black undercut with her hair curled to perfection, she had two little skull studs on the sides of her nose, and her right arm was fully sleeved. It had music notes, waves, sunshine, hearts, and a few others that were very intricate. She was wearing a cut off that said thug life, camo shorts, and a beanie.

"You know Jaime has the hots for you, right?" She smirked.
"Ugh... I noticed. I just don't know what to do..." I sighed.
She put her hand on my left knee, a comforting gesture. "Don't think about it too hard, sweetie. If you like him, you like him. It doesn't mean the world's gonna stop spinning."
"But, that's the thing. I really do love Oli, I just kind of like Jaime, too." I was becoming quite frustrated with myself.
"You've got three months to figure it out. Also, if you truly loved Oli like you say you do, you wouldn't feel anything for Jaime. I know it's hard, but it's easier if you just break up with him and give yourself time to figure out what to do next," she smiled and hopped out of the bunk, leaving me time to think thing over.
She's right.
I pulled out my phone and dialed Oli's number from heart.
"Yeah, babe?" Oli asked, out of breath.
"Oli, is it okay if I don't be your manager? I'm going through a lot of stress and I love you so much, but I really want to use this summer to focus on us," I pleaded, hoping he wouldn't get mad.
"You stupid cunt! I should've known you'd back out on me, slutty ass whore! You know, go fuck yourself! I don't ever want to see your face again, bitch!" He yelled.
"But, Olllipop..." I whimpered.
The line went dead. My heart stopped and I went cold. I got out of my bunk, aimlessly walking towards the front door. Everyone watched me in silence as I walked outside.
"Hey hey hey, what happened?" Cooed Jaime, trying to calm me down. He cupped my face, thumbs swiping the tears from my eyes.
"He called me a stupid cunt and broke up with me," I said flatly. I had forgotten how to feel. After six years. SIX FUCKING YEARS. He just dropped me like that.
Jaime was turning red with anger and he looked like he was about to punch something.
"He can't fucking talk to you like that. He doesn't deserve you," Jaime muttered to himself.
"Jaime, it's okay. If he can just drop me like that, I'm not going to cry over him," I said trying to be brave.
"But you are crying," his eyes softened and he came close, his warm minty breath on my face.
"I'm a big girl, Jaime. I was going to break up with him anyways. He broke up with me because I told him I didn't want to be their tour manager, that I was going to tour with you."
"You are?" His eyes lit up.
"Yeah," I smiled softly.
He realized how close we were and rubbed his neck awkwardly. "Uh... we should prbably get back..."
"Yeah... totally..." he grabbed my hand and led me back to the bus. I felt butterflies in my stomach.
Ruby led me back to the bunks and we sat in hers, where there were a bunch of old band posteres pinned up. Nirvana, Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, etc.
"What happened?" She asked, her honey-colored eyes flooded with concern.
"He called me a- a cunt," I sniffled. "Then, h-he b-b-broke up w-with me!"
I threw my head into her shoulder, leaving mascara stains in her tshirt. She didn't seem to mind, though, and for that I was grateful.
"He's not worth it. We're having a sleepover and we'll talk about bands and boys and watch Rock Horror and eat chocolate and all that shit!" She smiled.
"I love Rocky!" I laughed.
"MIKE, JAIME, VIC, TONY!" She yelled.
"WHAT?!" They yelled back.
"CAN YOU GUYS GET ME CHOCOLATE AND ROCKY AND SHIT?! OLI BROKE UP WITH CARTER AND WE'RE HAVING A SLEEPOVER!"
"GET IT YOURSELF!" Tony yelled.
"UNLESS YOU WANT US TO BE ALL HORMONEY, YOU BETTER GET US SOME! AND MIKE, GET ME JAGER!"
"YOU GOT IT, BABE" He yelled, then I heard all the boys shuffling off the bus and a car starting.
"You like Jager?" She grinned.
"I don't drink," I said shyly.
"Straight edge, huh?"
I nodded.
"Hardcore!" She grinned even wider. "I dig it!"
"Hey, Car, we're here!" He yelled, waking me up from my dreamless sleep.
