I was minding my own business, when I was snapped out of my thoughts. My cell mate, Chris, clicked his fingers infront of my face. I jumped, shook my head, and stood up, glaring at him.

"What the fuck" I shouted at him. "What do you mean? You were fúcking staring into space" he shouted back, seeming offended. "I'd rather have been daydreaming about what I was just thinking, rather than being stuck in here with you!" I muttered angrily. "Tell me" he says, moving over in his bed so he's facing me "what were you thinking?"

Flashback

I had been in LA for the past few months and couldn't wait to go back home to Sydney. The boys and I had written some kick ass songs for the new album. John has been a great help, along with some other great artist who had helped us write.

Me and the boys were all at the airport in LA, waiting for our flight. Our flight is at 8:30 in the morning, so we had to get up pretty early to catch our flight. A lady called out our flight through the overhead speakers, telling us to go to Gate 32 in order to get onto the plane.

Once at the gate, we have in our passports and flight tickets, said our thank you's and boarded the plane. Once seated, someone from cabin crew gave us all those instructions about if we were to crash or incase of a fire.

-Fast forward to Sydney airport-

We got off the plane, collected our baggage from baggage collection. We were then greeted by our families as we walked out the doors.

I walked over to my family, dropped by suitcase and backpack. "Hi mum" I said, greeting her with a kiss on the cheek and a hug. Harry and Lauren then came and joined in with the hug. We stood there for about 5 minutes hugging each other. Once the hug broke off, I walked over to Luke's parents to say hello, giving both Liz and Andy a hug. Then I walked over to Calum's parents, giving them and hug. Then I lastly walked over to Michaels parents, getting them with a hug.

-Fast forward a few hours-

"So mum what have you got planned whilst I'm here for a few days?" I asked my mum as we sat down for dinner. "A few days?" She said choking on her food. "Oh yeah. About that. I'm leaving to go back to LA for a couple of days, then going to London with the boys-" I said quietly. No one had said anything. My mum was looking down at her plate, picking at her food. Harry had walked off to his bedroom, and Lauren ran to the bathroom.

"Mum I'm sorry" I pleaded. "Don't Ashton. You've done enough" she said, standing up, leaving me at the table. I put my head in my hands, softly shaking my head in disappointment. "What have I done" i sadly thought to myself.

I finally got up from the table and walked up to Harry's room. I knocked softly on his door until I heard him whisper to come in. "Harry?" I whispered. The further I walked in, the louder the sobs were. Harry turned around, making my heart melt. His face was tear stained, knees up to his chin, his hair stuck to his tears, face bright red, eyes poofy.

"Why do you have to leave. I miss you Ashton" Harry sobbed. I rubbed his back, and placed him on my lap allowing him to cry into my chest. "I'm sorry Harry. I don't know what else to say to you I'm sorry" I quietly said. "Then leave me alone. Get out my room" he angry whispered. "I mean it Ashton" this time hitting my chest. I got up, whispered another 'I'm sorry' then left, quietly closing his door. I sat down behind his door, to hear him cry harder.

-Fast forward 4 days-

"So I guess this is goodbye, until we next see you. Whenever that is" my mum spoke sharply. "Don't think of this as 'goodbye', see it as 'see you soon'. Okay?" I reassuringly said. "Yeah okay, whatever" she said, looking over my shoulder.

I kneeled down to Harry, cuffed my hands around his cheeks, making him look directly at me. "Harry, I promise I'll phone you ever night. I love you so much" I kissed his cheek, then went back to my normal height. I walked over to Lauren, who was texting away on her phone. "Lauren" I said, tapping her shoulder, making her look up then look down onto her phone. "I don't care what you have to say. Leave" she said without looking up.

I walked away from my family, and over to the check in desk, handing in my tickets, luggage and passport.

My flight was soon called and yet again I was in a plane.

The flight seemed shorter than the flight to Sydney. I had already gotten off and collected my luggage. A man was standing at the gate with a sign with my name on. I walked over, greeted him and walked over to the car.

I was driven to my hotel. I check into the hotel, carried my luggage to my room. I unlocked the door and dumped my suitcase on the floor and jumped into my bed. Only to then be interrupted by my phone ringing. I didn't look at the caller ID, but I recognised the voice as soon as they spoke.

"Ashton" they spoke.

"Bryana" I spoke back.

"How was your flight?" She asked.

"Eh, it was fine, where am I meeting you?" I asked her, standing up and walking over to my suitcase.

"Meet me at Venice beach at 2:00" she spoke.

"Okay see you then" I replied. I ended the called and pulled a clean top from my suitcase. I trudged over to the bathroom, got undressed and got into the shower.

After showering I got changed into my clean clothing. I looked at my phone to look at the time. 1:51 it read. Shit. I better run.

I exited my room, paced down the hotel stairs, hailed a cab telling him to drive to the location.

Once we reached Venice beach, I payed the cab driver and got out. I walked over to a bench and sat down. It wasn't long until I saw her walking over to me....

Hiiiiii,

I'm leaving this chapter in a cliff hanger, but I will write the second part two later on if this chapter gets a lot of votes.

You guys are absolutely amazing, thank you for your comments. We love you all.

I hope you had a lovely day today because no one deserves a bad day.

If you've had a bad day, don't listen to whoever has made you sad. Your better than them. Don't ever let someone bring you down no matter what.

Thank you for reading the book.

We love you.

Goodbye x
