Hit me back. I need to talk.

Joel doesn’t reply, as he hasn’t for the last three weeks since I forced him to take some time off to clear his head. His distance and refusal to talk has everything to do with Rian and their rocky relationship. He won’t voice what happened with her at all.

I can’t figure it out. Like Natalie and me, they were happy and inseparable one minute and done the next. Instead of going behind his back, I’ve been patiently waiting for him to come clean. So far, I’ve gotten nothing, and I have a good idea Benji has everything to do with it. I dial him next, more out of concern for Joel than myself, and get no answer. Benji has been more absent in my life than ever, taking long sabbaticals from his tattoo parlor and traveling all over—mostly to the east coast. He only checks in when I’ve demanded some proof of life.

With my wife in tears, and our situation, I’m only more fucked in taking the time to figure out what the hell is going on in the lives of the people closest to me.

The sad truth is, I’ve been just as hard to reach, and know, even to the woman I’ve dedicated my life to.

Natalie is right in many respects but so goddamn wrong in others. I did bring her here to get back to the place we were before my career snatched some of her peace of mind away. A consequence I knew we would eventually face but nowhere near the nightmare we endured. Something I felt so goddamned helpless to fight against and made me resent ever sharing a single song with the world.

The end of our last trip here brought us together and solidified us in a way I believed miscommunication would cease altogether. That we would never let things unsaid get between us again. But telling her the whole truth would only put her through more. She’s endured so much from the media and paparazzi in the last year, and I didn’t want to add to it. I swung back hard to no avail because unless I hang it up and purposefully disappear, it won’t end.

Chest burning with the need to repair us—to do as she asked—I spend hours thinking it out. Hearing her hurt echo in my head. I wander back into the hotel by way of the pool and hear my mother scream before a peel of laughter leaves her. I look over to see Nate and Addie lying in the same lounger, talking intimately as Dad tosses Mom around in the pool. She lifts from the water, her hair a mess, and she gives him a playful smile.

Jealousy eats at me briefly in the thought that should be us. Just after, the state of the four of them comforts me.

My parents used to fight like cats and dogs at times. I’ve witnessed a dozen or more fights over the years. Not that
