chapter three
When we head inside Gavin takes me around and introduces me to people. He then goes behind me and covers my eyes. I shriek slightly and freeze. He whispers in my ear,' Angel calm down. You're ok I'm not gonna hurt you you know I would never do that. I'm just leading you to a surprise." I calm down and relax myself before nodding. He starts to walk and i go with him. I hear a door open in front of us and we walk through it. The next thing i know is his hands are down from my eyes and i hear a bunch of people yelling out,"WELCOME ANGEL!". I open my eyes and see a bunch of people standing there with a giant sign that says 'WELCOME TO THE OFFICE'. I laugh at all this and Gavin takes me around and introduces me to everyone there. I meet Mustache Geoff, Rose Ray, Mad King Ryan, Quiet Jack and lastly the one I already knew, Rage Quit Michael. Don't blame me for the nicknames, that's how Gavin introduced them. When we walk up to Ray he holds out a rose to me. I take it and smile up at him whilst saying," Merci Beaucoup." He looks at me astonished and me and Gavin laugh, I then say," I said thank you lots in french." He makes an o shape with his mouth and nods his head OK. I turn around back to Gavin and he motions for me to follow him. I get a puzzled look on my face but i follow him. He leads me out into the hall and over to a room next door. He takes me in there and i see a desk with the same set up that he has. On the monitor screen it says, 'Fire-Wire. Welcome to your office.' I turn around to him and just walk straight into his arms whispering,"Gavy-Wavy thank you so much. You have no idea how much this means to me." He kisses my head and says," Anything for you Fire-Wire. Anything for you. And this way i can have you by my side always." I laugh and just hug him tighter before letting go. "OK well i still have to call Skylar and tell her i am taking a break for a little while." I say as I pull out my phone. He nods and walks out to give me some privacy. I go to her contact and press the call button. It rings four times before she answers,
"Hey Fira what's up?" I hear her say. "Hey Sky. I have to talk to you about something..." I reply back, pacing back and forth. "Sure what is it darling. Anything you need." I take a deep breath and continue saying," Well Im wanting to take a small break from the book writing. You see, I'm in Austin visiting my big brother and if I continued with the book I would have to be back there in two days and I honestly want to stay longer so that I can stay with my brother. I mean I wouldn't be ending it forever, it would just be for a couple months. And to be honest I am having major writer's block right now. So I wouldn't be able to write anyways..." she cuts me off saying,' Angel. It's fine you can take a break for a little while. Honestly I was starting to wonder when you were going to take a break. I mean, it is long over due that you asked for one. So I completely understand that you want to take a break. You can take your break for as long as you need. Just remember that you will need to get back to the book eventually. That is inevitable. But just take your time and be safe OK Angel?" I smile when I hear her say this. I don't care how i look and i just jump into the air and say," Thank you Sky. You don't know how much this means to me. Believe me i will get back to the book as soon as I get an idea. Bye Sky and take care." she mutters a reply into the phone and I hang up.
I squeal as softly as possible before heading to the door and opening it to see Gavin standing there with a big smile on his face. I stop in my tracks and stare at him before nodding my head. "you heard everything huh?" I ask him. All he does is smile and nods his head. He walks up to me and pulls me into another hug and says," i am so happy that you're able to stay here. But what is this that I hear about you having writer's block? You Angel Sapphire Free, have never once had writer's block. Not since we were five. Even then it was only for two days and then you were back to it. So why is it happening now Fire-Wire?" I look down at the ground and start shuffling my feet around trying to avoid the question. He puts his hands on my shoulders and makes me look at him, with a look that says ' you can tell me anything you know that.' I take a deep breath and let it out slowly before saying," i'm having writer's block because back home i started writing the sequel to bittersweet revenge. But the sequel is a kind of prequel. This one goes back and talks about her past in depth. Like what happened to her father to cause him to you know. The thing is i can't figure out how to make it work right. I've already got half of it over with it's just the rest is not wanting to fit like it normally does when i write a book." I start to pace back and forth and pull at my hair," and the thing is it is making me so stressed because i hate not meeting a deadline and i hate that the book Isn't Wanting To fit TOGETHER RIGHT. UGH.' At the end i literally scream it into my hands and slide down the wall that my back has ended up on. When i get onto the floor i draw my knees up to my chest and wrap my hands around my legs and rest my head in between my knees. " i just don't know what to do Gavin. I don't know what to do," i mutter softly, defeated. I feel Gavin slide down next to me and his arm wraps around my shoulder. He pulls me to where my head is resting on his shoulder and he slowly starts to move his hand up and down my hair. He knows that this is the only way to calm me down when i start to have a break down. I close my eyes and slowly breathe in and out. After a while i lift my head up and look into his eyes. I lower my gaze and mumbled, "I'm sorry Gavin. I'm sorry for having a mini break down. That's not like me. At least it isn't like the new me." He looks at me and says with a slight smile, " Fire-Wire... I don't care when you have a break down. Trust me it doesn't bother me. And you don't have to apologize, I understand that you're stressed. Heck i would be to if a video wasn't working out or wanting to load. You actually have every right to break down about this. And Angel.. Remember...if you ever need to talk or have a break down again... Just Come to me OK? You can always come to me about anything. I won't ever judge you-well maybe just a little bit, but i'm your brother it's my right." He laughs as he says that last part and i smile and laugh with him. When I'm done I look done at the charm bracelet on my wrist. I finger the little book and quill. I close my eyes and take a deep breathe before getting up and holding my hand out and he takes it and i help pull him up. I look at him before giving him a hug and saying, " thank Gavy. I'm glad I have you as an older brother. I don't know what I would do without you. So again thank you." he hugs me back and kisses my forehead saying," anything for you. Anything at all i will do it for you." I laugh at this and pull away. I look around and remember that we are still at the office and that the guys are in the next room over. Fear washes over my face and i mutter an uh oh.
