"Loosen up, nothing's going to happen," Luke smiled a small smile. I couldn't help but feel like everything would be fine.

"So I don't know if any of you know this but Lauren sniffs her own farts!" Luke said through the microphone. My jaw dropped and I whacked at his arm as he let out a laugh. I stomped away from him and up to Ashton. I grabbed his microphone and brought it to my mouth.

"Can you teach me how to play drums?" I asked him, being an idiot and wiggling my eyebrows. He laughed but stood up off his chair and let me sit. His strong arms wrapped around my tiny body and he placed the drumsticks in my hand.

"Hold them loosely, not tight," he told me, his voice projecting across the stadium. I didn't grip them hard in my hand and Ashton's hands wrapped around mine. He started a little beat with a drum and a symbol near it. Luke, Cal, and Michael joined in with their guitars. When we stopped the crowed roared with applause.

"I HAVE MUSICAL TALENT, WOW!" I screamed through the microphone. Everyone laughed at my stupid behavior.

"I'm going to try this in my own," I said, letting out a breath to hype myself up. I tried to recreate the beat but failed completely. I put my head in my hands out of laughter as Ashton's hand went on my shoulder to steady himself.

The only thing halting my laughter was the faint sounds of a gun being fired and the bullet hit a symbol.

My initial reaction was to put my head in my hands, trying to cover as much as I possibly could. I felt Ashton's arm wrap around my waist as we fell to the ground, his chest breaking my fall. He rolled over so now I was underneath him as he scooted behind the drums. I looked in between two drums and saw the other three crouched down along with the fans. Luke looked back at me and I beckoned him over. He pulled his guitar off him and got the other three as they ran to behind the drums with Ashton and I.

"Sh, Love, it's okay. We'll be okay." I didn't know I was crying until Luke reached over and wiped the tears off my cheek. Screams pierced in my ears as the crowd realized who shot the gun.

"It almost hit me," I finally said, ripping myself from my shocked state.

"It almost fucking hit me!" I screeched, repeating myself.

"Come on we need to go," Ashton pointed to a person backstage trying to get us to come off. Calum shot up and ran off, Michael quick to follow him. Luke stood up and wasted no time pulling me behind him, Ashton blocking my back with his body.

When we were back stage I could still see the entrance onto the stage. I watched what I could as the fans frantically fled the terrible scene.

"What happened!?" Liam ran over, three others following him.

"Someone shot at Ashton and I," I cried as Luke pulled me close to him.

"Who would do that!?" Louis piped in. I shook my head, my face still buried in Luke's chest as I sobbed.

"They wanted me dead," I cried. I felt other peoples arms wrap around Luke and I. I looked up to see brown curly hair, jet black hair, and mint green hair. It didn't take much brains to know that the other 5sos boys were hugging Luke and I.

"They caught the person who shot it and their going to be arrested. Also, the show is rescheduled for tomorrow," I heard Zayn speak. Everyone pulled away but Luke kept his arm resting across my shoulders.

"Thanks Zayn," Calum smiled.

"What happened!?" Niall came stumbling in, his hair half up, half down, and crazy. Michael told him what happened and he gave me a sympathetic look along with the rest.
