Chapter 29
Lewis
Please answer me, Liv. We need to talk.
i know I should”ve fought harder for you. I keep replaying Eugene over and over, thinking of all the ways I could”ve handled things differently. I’m so sorry for how I acted at the market, for panicking. If you just give me another chance, come back, I’ll do better. I swear.

We made it to Edmonton. The bus ride up was strange without you humouring the guys bullshit. God, I miss your teasing, your laughter, your smile...
They wanted to go out after we got to the hotel, hit up some bars before tomorrow’s show. I begged off. Didn’t feel much like partying. Tom tried giving me shit for being a miserable bastard and Andy keeps telling me to open up more and lean on the band. But how can I do that when the one person I want to lean on is gone?

I miss you so fucking much. The bed feels empty without you, the whole world feels dimmer. Tell me what I need to do so you can come back. Please, Liv. I’ll do anything.
Liv
There’s nothing for you to do. I didn’t leave because of you.
Lewis
I know that’s not true. I wish you’d stayed so we could figure out our next step together.
Answer my call. Please.
