I Put My Heart Before My Mind

Birthdays and Balz

**Jenna's POV**

Ryan's birthday is in 2 days, so I'm preparing for that. Today, Ryan has a band meeting and Balz requested that I go with Ryan for this one. Right now Ryan's showering and I'm putting on my makeup.

"Jenna, what time is it?" Ryan asked

"It's 10:25" I told him

"We're gonna be late." He said as he came into our room and was looking for clothes

"Well, I'm ready so can I do anything to help you?"

After Ryan got dressed he came to the room where I was "Well, my lips are kinda hurting" he said

I laughed and walked over to him and kissed him "better?"

"Much better" he said and finished getting ready

We left and headed to the studio.

"Looks like everyone is here already" I told Ryan

We found where everyone was and we say down catching up with everyone.

"Uh, Josh and Jenna can I talk to you in private?" Balz asked

Josh and I got up and followed Balz

"So, I've been thinking, and I'm just in a really different place in my life than I thought I'd be right now. This is probably the hardest thing I've ever had to say, but I'm leaving the band"

I'm in complete shock. Balz has never acted like this was what he was gonna tell me today. Josh was telling Balz something but I couldn't even pay attention I was so blindsided

"Jenna, please say something" Balz said quietly

"I just- I mean are you sure this is what you want?" I asked

"I'm sure Jenna"

Wait, the tour. What about the tour.

"Josh, what about the tour?" I asked

"I already have someone in mind, but-" I cut Josh off before he couldn finish

"Do the guys know?" I asked

"No, I told Josh a week ago so he could find my replacement."

"Well, lets go tell them" I said.

I turned and walked away as tears formed in my eyes. I wasn't mad at Balz, I'm just worried. How will Ryan take this, but most importantly how will the fans take this?

"What's wrong, babe?" Ryan asked

"I'm ok." I told Ryan taking his hand in mine

Balz came in behind me and told the guys the news.

After we all talked for a while Ryan and I headed home.

"My manger called and said that one of the bands that was suppose to your with y'all dropped out so I'm going with you" I told Ryan

"That's awesome, babe. It'll be great having you there with my since this is my first tour without Balz" he told me

"I'm excited for this tour its been a while."

"This tour will be fun, for sure"

Two days later

I was making Ryan breakfast for his birthday while he was still sleeping

I went upstair to our room and saw Carter and A.J. sleeping next to Ryan.

"Wake up birthday boy," I whispered in his ear "I made you food"

Ryan slowly got up and went downstairs and then we ate breakfast together

"I'm going snowbording with some friends today then I'll meet up with you for dinner does that work?"

"Works for me!" I plan to make this his best birthday yet.
