I SEE YOU

TOBY'S P.O.V

Let's try to forget everything in the past. Because after all these months I've spent, I would never want to hurt her.

"Tobs, are you okay?" Connor spoke after the house party. We spent the entire day on that house. That went pretty crazy though.

"I'm good."

"But I don't think you are."

"Confuse Con, that's all." I bowed my head.

"Bro, don't be. After all this time, it's not even a choice." Riley reminded me and I nodded. He's right. What I have now was more than enough.

"Happy 4 months anyway." My brothers congratulated me and yeah, I thanked them.

"You're going to celebrate it tonight, right?" Connor changed his shirt, and so did us. We're in the tour bus, preparing ourselves for the next interview.

"Of course!"

"Great, you better text her that you'd be online approximately on...what time will we go home, Con?" Riley asked.

"On 8, If I'm not mistaken." Connor simply nodded to me, signing that he's agree with Riley.

"Okay."

I took the phone out of my pocket. Too many Twitter notifications I got here. Oh, I forgot to log out the Twitter. I went straight to the message bar, and...

Ally:

Done for today's show, Toby? I think I owe you explanations.

"Toby?" Connor and Riley realized that I was frozen. "What is it?"

"Ally..."

"What?"

"Why did she have to come back..." I covered my face with my both hands.

"I don't know Tobs, that's unexplainable." Riley sit beside me tried to calm me.

"What did she say?" Connor asked.

"That she owes me explanations."

"You think she does?"

"After these years, no."

"Then you tell her." Riley gave the advice. "Stop everything with her, unless you think you need explanations. That's the only thing you need to figure out soon. She'll ever stop unless you ask her."

"That's why...she's here bro. That's one step away from having explanations of what happened 2 years ago. This is what I've been waiting for. I deserve one."

"As long as you think it won't cause any problem between you and Loaine, go for it." Connor sit in front of me. We're having the hardest brother talk ever.

"What do you want to know again from 2 years ago, Tobs?"

"She's leaving, Riley. Just like that."

"But it's the best that could ever happen between you. She wasn't right for you."

"I know..."

"Then now what?" I understood these two boys right here. They loved to see me with Loaine, because it's simply worth the fight. And I knew it. Never regret anything about our relationship. It's just I didn't see Ally coming, never.

"I think I should confront her later." I mumbled.

"Later okay, because you have celebration today." Riley reminded me again.

"Definitely." I smiled then we should shake everything off. There's interview to be done first.

We spent almost 3 hours doing that interview. It's one of the most exclusive ones. Let's go home, shall we?

After 20 minutes, we finally reached home. I planned to directly go to my room and opened my laptop before doing anything, so at least she'd know I was already home.

"Whoa..." Riley stopped walking which made me bump into him.

"Bro." I rolled my eyes.

"This..." He pointed. Oh, a car. A guest?

"Welcome home." There's a voice girl welcomed us and that's definitely not Mom's.

"Ally? What are you doing here?" Riley tried to be as normal as possible but I heard that sarcastic tone in his line.

"And how did you come in?" Connor added from behind me. She had no time to even open her mouth.

"I...have keys, remember?" She convinced us. "I hope you don't mind."

"I thought we have no appointment here, right?" Riley glanced over me.

"Think so, yeah. I thought we would have some other time to talk."

"I have no friends here. I miss you guys." She cried again and run against Connor and Riley's chest.

"Okay Ally, fine. What do you want?" Connor tried to comfort her but still, Connor left the sarcasm.

"Just want to hang out with you, like the old days." She looked at me.

"I think my brothers here are dead tired. Come with me." I took her hand. "Guys I'm leaving. Be back soon okay."

"Are you sure?" They said in unison, raising their eyebrows.

"Yeah, I'm good. I'll text her."

"Good." You have no idea how many 'codes' we had on this conversation, leaving Ally with her unsatisfied expression.

"Her?" She started the conversation.

"Yeah, her." I took a seat at the corner of Starbucks, sipped my coffee.

"You have a girlfriend?" Ally bowed her head.

"I don't know, you tell me."

"She's lucky girl..."

"No, I'm the lucky one to have her." I tried to calm down.

"So, this girl, I know her?"

"Practically no, unless you see some posts on my personal accounts, yeah, that's her."

"I bet she's beautiful." She spoke too slowly.

"I know. She's beyond perfect." I took a deep breath. Heavy conversation. "So, how's Paris?"

"I love Orlando more. But Paris is fine."

"Oh,"

"Toby..." She held my hand but I barely held hers back. "I miss you..."

"That's pretty much what I felt for the past 2 years."

"I'm sorry... I wish I had time to explain."

"You have it now."

"I...uh... I'm sorry I hadn't given you explanations before. Mom kept me busy."

"Interesting."

I was about to leave the store because none of us was ready for this, I just realized. Besides, it's already an hour. Loaine was waiting for me.

"Listen to me first, Toby..."

"Oh, should I?"

"Of course you should! That's not what I dreamt to do!"

"But it did happen. What else?"

"I left this unexplained, sorry. But I didn't have the wonderful life either..."

"Besides that young model you dated after spent the first month in Paris, nothing was exactly happening, right?"

"I LOVE YOU!" She finally shouted which made me frozen.

"That's long gone for me."

"Because you date that girl now? I don't know whoever she is, but that's supposed to be my place!"

"Don't be so sure about that Ally, you know nothing about it." I spoke closely to her face, to reminded her that I wasn't kidding.

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah. Now leave me."

"TOBY!"

I ran fastest to my house. That's late night already. I don't know, finger crossed that Loaine would be still there.
