I Want You In The Most Unromantic Ways
(Alternate Sequel to Thanks For Nothing)
Chapter Sixty Five♥


--Tony's POV--

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Jaime shouted in my ear.
I swatted in the direction of his voice and nearly fell out of my bunk.
He chuckled and walked away.
"It's not my birthday yet, there's still a few days left," I announced.
My eyes popped open and I searched for my phone in my blankets.
When I found it, I saw the date: February 25th.
I groaned and scrolled through my messages from all my friends in bands and everyone else.
Nothing from Dakota, hmm.
I glanced at the time and it was 12 which meant it was 2 in Illinois.
Maybe she was still sleeping.

--Dakota's POV--

"THAT WAS THE BEST MOVIE EVER!" I screamed.
Mitch agreed and we both decided to walk around Chicago for awhile.
"I miss hanging out with you," he spoke up after awhile.
"I do too, honestly," I admitted.
"Then why didn't you call or text or something?"
"Why didn't you?" I asked him.
He didn't answer so I assumed it was the same as mine.
We thought the other person would talk first.
We looked at each other at the same time before I realized something.
"F*ck!" I screeched.
I stopped dead in my tracks and whipped my phone out.
My eyes immediately flew to the date: February 25th.
"What is it Dee?" Mitch questioned.
I ignored his question and proceeded to call Tony.
He answered a few seconds later and I screamed, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I'M SORRY I DIDN'T CALL SOONER I WAS AT THE MOVIES AND I REALLY LOVE YOU OKAY I'LL MAKE IT UP TO YOU!"
I looked up from the ground to see a bunch of people paused, staring at me.
I sighed and then smiled when I heard Tony cracking up.
"It's no big deal, Kota. Really, it isn't. I love you too, okay?"
I paused as I heard loud screams in the back.
"Um, where are you?" I asked him.
"Just on stage in front of a bunch of people. You're on speaker next to a mic."
I blushed at that even though he couldn't see me.
"You're blushing, aren't you?" he giggled.
My heart stopped at the sound of his laughter and a smile lit up my face.
"Maybe just a tad."
Shortly after that he told me he had to go and that he promises he'd call me later.

----

He didn't.
Call, that is. Tony never called.
----

Mitch dropped me back off at my house and left.
I layed in my bed until 4am waiting for him to call and he never did.
I shut my phone off and threw it against the floor and then dragged my Star Wars blanket
downstairs to the couch and slept curled in a ball.
For some reason just him not calling made me feel pathetic.
It made me feel stupid for just waiting. It made me feel really desperate.
Maybe I need him more than he needs me.
Maybe he doesn't need me at all.
He could have any girl he wants, he doesn't need me.
 




A/N:
Sorry these chapters are pretty boring, I'm trying to get into the writing zone again.
I have written anything in awhile and I'm kind of out of sync with what I've written so..
If there's anything you guys would specifically like to see, don't be afraid to leave a comment!
If you have any creative criticism on something I wrote then tell me too!
I like to get opinions, they're quite helpful actually.
So don't be afraid to talk to me. If there's something I write that you liked or didn't like particularly, speak up!
