Daughter Direction - Sequel to The Daughters

Apologizes

Apologizes

*Niall's POV*

After Simon left us, we slowly climbed onto the bus to find that none of the girls were to be seen.

"Where are they?" Louis whispered in confusion.

"They're probably already in bed." Harry replied in a 'duh' tone.

"Should we wake them up or should we just wait until tomorrow?" I asked curiously.

"I think we should wake them up. But then again, I don't want them to go off on us again, so I would just wait until tomorrow." Zayn replied.

We just nodded and turned to leave, but then a thought popped into my head.

"Wait, we're their fathers." I stated.

"Yeah, and?" Louis replied.

"We shouldn't care if they'll get mad at us." I explained to them.

"So, you want to wake them up?" Liam asked.

"Yup." I said popping the 'p'.

"Are you sure?" Harry asked.

"Yup." I said, popping the 'p' once again.

"Fine. But you can be the one to wake them up." Liam told me.

"Why do I have to wake them up?" I whined.

"First, it was your idea. And second, do you really think we want to face what they are going to do if we wake them up?" Liam explained.

I stared at them for a second before I finally agreed. I can't believe they actually talked me into that. I guess it's payback for talking them into talking to the girls tonight.

"Girls," I said once I was by their bunks, earning many groans from all 5 of them. "Can you please get up. Your fathers and I would like to talk to you guys for a few moments."

I explained as sweetly as possible, so they wouldn't try and hurt me or anything. Luckily it worked because they all literally rolled out of bed and made their way to the lounge area.

"That was easier than I thought." I mumbled to myself as I made my way to the lounge area with the rest of the crowd.

"So, what do you guys want to talk about at this time at night?" Alex asked a little rudely.

"Alex." I said in a warning tone.

"What?" She replied in the same tone she had before.

"We're going to talk about this tomorrow. But for right now, we just need to talk to you girls." I explained.

"I'm 18 and have my own place. You can't ground me." Alex mumbled under her breath. I don't think I was supposed to hear that, so I am just going to continue on with the rest of the girls.

*Alexandra's POV*

"So, are you going to tell us why Niall called us out of bed or are we just going to have to figure it out for our selves?" Emily said in a tone that I have never heard her use before, breaking the awkward silence between us.

"Oh, sorry." Louis said.

"We heard that you girls were and probably still are pretty upset that we never called for the past year and a half." Dad started.

As soon as dad said that, I immediately rolled my eyes. Seriously, you're going to bring that up now.

"We just wanted to apologize for not calling you. We know that was wrong and we know that we should have picked up the phone when you girls called." Liam explained, speaking for all the boys.

"So, did Simon tell you to come in here and apologize?" Annemarie said, speaking for the firs time since our fathers arrived in the bus.

"What? No." We said, quickly defending ourselves.

"So, Simon didn't see you at all between the time he left the bus and you entered the bus?" Jessica asked, also speaking for the first time since our fathers have been on the bus.

"I mean, he saw us as he was coming out. And that's only because we were making our way into the bus to apologize to you." Harry said quickly.

"They're so lying." Emily stated.

"Oh, we know." I told her.

"Wait, what?" Our fathers asked in confusion.

"We heard Simon talk to you guys. We heard every single word he said." Jamie explained to them.

"We weren't even sleeping. I can't believe you didn't notice that we are still in the same clothes that we were in while on stage." Jessica said.

"That's why it was so easy to wake you girls up without a fight." Dad said in a sudden realization.

The girls and I gave him strange looks before our fathers continued to speak.

"So, you heard every word, huh?" Liam asked.

"Didn't we just say that?" Emily said in annoyance.

"Okay, no need for the attitude." Liam told his daughter.

"What?" Emily questioned.

"There is no need for the attitude. You girls have been giving us an attitude ever since you stepped through that door and I've had enough of it." Liam said in a more stern voice.

"Well maybe if you guys paied more attention to us, we wouldn't have an attitude right now." Jamie said in annoyance.

"Jamie Styles, watch your tone." Harry told his daughter in a stern voice.

"Why do I have to watch my tone? Are you going to ground me? Dad, I am almost 19 and living on my own. You can't ground me anymore." Jamie told him.

"Okay, let me explain this to you girls right now. The 5 of us were on our way to apologize to you when we heard you talking to Simon. So we waited outside the bus, until he was gone. But when Simon came out, we exchanged a few words before we came walking in here." Louis explained, trying to be as calm as possible.

"How do we know you're not lying?" Annemarie asked, earning a couple of hits in the head from the rest of us girls.

"Ignore her last comment." Emily told them, still staring at Emily with a warning look.

"We know that you came to apologize and all, but we're still kind of upset about the whole thing." Jamie explained.

"Everytime you didn't pick up the phone and everytime you didn't call us back, we thought you didn't care about us or what we do." Jessica added.

"And when my dad went missing, the only time you guys called or picked up the phone, you always brought up my dad. It was kind of annoying actually." Emily explained.

"Finally we're getting somewhere." Zayn mumbled under his breath before earning a good smack in the back of the head from his four best friends.

"You guys really think
