Chapter 25

Lana's POV

Two days later

I was woken up by the sun streaming in through the windows.I groaned, and rolled over, trying to go back to sleep.All I wanted to do was sleep since I came back into my apartment.I didn't really want to do anything else.But, not doing anything, lead to thinking. Well, overthinking.And all I could think about was Steven. His words from the interview were running through my head.I wanted to call him, but I didn't know what I would say.I didn't have any apologizing to do either. It was all him.My heart wasn't as broken, but the hurt was still there. It was going to take awhile to fade.Staying away from Steven, wasn't what I wanted, but what I needed. Even though I clearly still loved him.

I pulled myself out of my bed, and made my way into the shower. I scrubbed myself clean, and blow dried my hair. I threw it into a fishtail braid, and walked back into my bedroom, to my closet.I threw on some jeans, and a simple purple T-shirt.I decided against the makeup, and walked out of my bedroom, into the kitchen.I decided to make myself some tea, and sit outside and read.Something to calm my mind. And besides, I hadn't used the attached balcony of my apartment since I moved in.About ten minutes later, my tea was ready. I poured it into a coffee cup, and walked over to my bookshelf, and grabbed my favorite book, John Green's, 'The Fault in Our Stars'.I opened the sliding door to the small balcony, and sighed in content at the afternoon breeze.Before I could even sit down, let alone get comfortable, my doorbell rang.

I sighed in frustration, and made my way to the door.I opened it to find a smirking Grant behind it.I smiled. "Hey. What's up?"He walked inside, and I closed the door."Let's hang out tonight." He said.I chuckled. "I would..but--"Grant held up a hand. "No buts. We're going out. To a concert. You need to get out of the house. Stop being a pitiful Patti, and what-not."I let out a laugh, and rose an eyebrow. "Pitiful Patti?""Yes!! You need to keep your life afloat, despite how you feel, my darling. And who better to help you with that, then your best friend?" Grant smirked.I sighed. "I guess you're right..."Grant smiled, patting my head. "Aren't I always?"I gave him a sarcastic look, and shook my head in defeat."Okay..I'll go out with you. What concert are we going to?"Grant crossed his arms, looking rather mischievous and sarcastic."It's a surprise."I looked at him in confusion, "Okay, whatever."

~~~~5 hours later, 7:30pm

"Grant!!!!" I exclaimed in exasperation.He smirked. "What?""I can't wear that!!" I replied, my mouth open in shock at what he had picked out for me to wear to the concert, which started in like a half hour."Just do it! You look so beautiful in this!"Grant had picked out a black, mid-thigh dress, with a full lace back, and three quarter sleeves, which were also lace.It was completely sexy, and totally daredevil.With some red lipstick, and the perfect shoes, I would look amazing.But I didn't want to wear that. Who should I look good for? But at the same time, Grant had a point. Ugh, he's lucky he's my best friend.I let out a halfhearted sigh of frustration."Okay. Give it to me."Grant smiled."Excellent."After about 10 minutes, I was ready. I stepped out of the bathroom, and Grant's mouth dropped open."Damn. You look sexy. Wanna hookup after the show?"I laughed, waving him off. "Oh please, with your jokes."Grant shook his head. "I'm not joking.""Grant!!!!"He smirked. "Sorry, sorry. Okay, it's time for us to go."I grabbed my messenger bag, threw it over my shoulder, making sure I had my phone, and followed Grant out of my apartment.I made sure to lock it.

~~~~We arrived at the venue, and Grant parked in the lot across from it.I got out, and followed Grant. He flashed the security guard the tickets, and he let us in.I didn't know what to expect as I followed Grant inside the theatre."HELLO LA!" My mouth dropped open, and my heart started pounding.I didn't expect this. Holy shit.~~~
