~~~Scarlett POV

My mom? Dead? After hanging up with the Officer I called my dad right away. Ya he basically disowned me but he was my father.

I dialed his number and he answered right away.

"Scarlett baby, I am so sorry" he said, I could tell he had been crying.

"Daddy." Was the only word I could get out of my system.

"It's okay baby doll, there's a flight leaving London to come to Doncaster tomorrow at 5 pm I already got your ticket all ready. I'll send it to you. The funeral is the day after tomorrow. I love you so much baby doll. Stay strong." He told me. I still haven't been able to stop crying.

"Okay daddy, I love you too." Was all I could choke out.

After I hung up with my dad I went to my room and crawled into my bed. I couldn't even think of my mom being dead right now. She left me when I was 6, but I forgive her. I always did. She was my best friend when I was younger, and I can't picture my life without her. I slowly drifted off to sleep.

It felt like I've only been asleep for two minutes. I woke up and the sun was already high in the sky. I looked at my clock and it was 1 pm.

"Wow." I said to myself while walking to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and it looked like I was dead myself. My face was extremely pale, my eyes were red and swollen from crying and my hair was everywhere. I hopped in the shower quickly to wash off all the tears and sorrow that was stuck to me.

As I was pulling on my hoodie, there was a knock at the door. I opened the door and it was Niall. Before I knew it he was embracing me with all his might!

"Scar! I have great news! And okay news" he said walking into my kitchen. "First if all YOUR ONE DIRECTIONS OPENING ACT!" He screamed with his head in the fridge. "But Simon wanted say in it too and he couldn't decide between you and this other girl, so you have to share the opening act" he said finally grabbing a soda and walking over to me.

I was still standing in the front foyer. I was happy, I really was! But my mum.

Niall turned towards me and his smile fell from his face.

"Love, why aren't you happy? Your touring the world! What's wrong?" He said while walking over to me.

It felt as if my feet were cemented to the spot I was standing in. I could feel my eyes starting to sting and fill up with tears. A tear finally spilled over my eye lid.

"My Mum, she died" was all I could choke out before breaking down in front of Niall.

Niall quickly rushed over to me and held me close to his chest running small circles on my back.

"Shh, it's okay love, I'm here for you. I will always be here for you" he whispered in my ear.

We walked over to my couch hand in hand and sat down. I cuddled up to him and set my head on his chest. I final settled down after 10 minutes of me crying.

"Thank you Niall. For everything. " I said to him while he was stroking my hair.

"It's my pleasure love." He replied

" so when does touring start.?" I asked him trying to lighten the mood.

"Well, we all have to be ready by tomorrow. I was going to tell you yesterday after the auditions were done, but you wouldn't answer your phone. Sorry for the short notice." He said giving me a small smile.

"I can't go tomorrow. I have a flight to Doncaster tonight at 5 and my Mums funeral is tomorrow." I said dryly.

"That's understandable. I'm sure Simon will be okay with that with the circumstances of why. And like I said, we have two opening acts so it will be okay" he said giving me a squeeze an a reassuring smile.

"I better pack then." I said while getting up. It was already 2:45 and my flight will be here soon.

"Okay love, I have to get going as well. I gotta finish up my packing!" He replied walking to the door."Are you sure your okay by yourself?" He said pulling me into a hug.

"I'll be okay thanks" I said giving him a kiss on the cheek.

As soon as he left I went straight for my room to pack everything. Wow. A world tour with One Direction. I couldn't believe my ears.

~~ Niall POV

When Simon said that he really liked Scarlett's voice I was ecstatic! But when he said he also really liked this other girl, my smile dropped from my face.

"Well, I don't know who to choose. I guess we can just go with both. I'll give em a call." He said getting up and walking to his office.

"That Scarlett girl was AMAZING! She said she wrote that song too right? Holy crap! " Louis said excited for her to be coming on tour with us.

"I know, she's amazing ! I just wish that other girl didn't have to come" I said whining a bit.

Scarlett was amazing and we didn't need another act to open for us.

"I do, she was crazy fit and I wouldn't mind her coming on tour with us at all!" Harry said cheekily.

Of course Harry said that. But Scarlett was way more beautiful than the other Opener, Courtney. Courtney was a sluttly pretty, where Scarlett was just naturally beautiful.

"Guys I'm gonna go make a call, be back soon!" I said to the lads.

I dialed in Scarlett's number and waited for her to answer. 3 rings, 4 rings, 5 rings.

"Ello, you have reached Scarlett Lawrie. Sorry I'm away from my cellular at the moment please leave. Message after the beep, thanks!" Said her answering machine.

I missed Scarlett, the feelings for her have been growing non stop for her. But I know we could never be a couple. It would be too weird if we broke up while on tour.

But for now. I'm glad we are just friends.
