Abigail's POV

My eyes are barely open as I climb back on the tour bus with Ryan and the rest of the band, it had been a long 18 hours in New York City. Ryan had a small festival gig and I had some radio interviews and a magazine shoot with Esquire magazine.

I could feel Ryan's hand on the back of my neck as the bus started moving. We were heading to the airport, I had a few days off work and planned to spend them with Ryan in Europe.

Freya was staying at her dad's for a few weeks so this gave me some time to spend with my husband...I still couldn't get my head around the fact we were married. My thoughts were interrupted by a kiss on my temple "You ok?" Ryan asked as he sat beside me on couch area of the bus, Brent and Zach were also sat with us.

"How was the shoot?" Zach grinned like a school boy "Did you get some test shots?"

I laugh loudly "Sure I did" I smile playfully, I take my phone out my pocket and hand it to Ryan "It's only fair I show my husband them right" I bite my lip as I see Ryan's expressions change.

"Holy shit" he exclaims as he scrolls through the risqué sample pictures "Oh I like that one" he laughs as he flashes a picture of me wearing a black top and high waist black pants, Zach is whining like a child in the background.

"OH come on, no fair" he winges "He gets to see you anytime, besides its not like I won't be able to go and buy a copy of them next week"

"You will just have to wait" I tease him as I look over Ryan's shoulder, he frowns at some of the topless ones, which might I add have been tastefully done "They ok?" I wonder and he smirks before looking at Zach and Brent.

"We even have topless" he grins causing Zach to shoot up and look at my phone.

"That's it" he says "Oh man, wow...you are one lucky son of a bitch Ryan" he grins as he looks at the pictures.

"Jeez Abi, you sure know how to take a good photo" Brent exhales when he too looks at the pictures.

"Do you have any idea how awkward shots like that are, they may look sexy but I swear when you have 4 middle aged men in the room. Two of them telling you what position to pose in and two more getting right in your face with cameras...nothing good about it" I laugh as I explain what happened during the shoot. They all laugh at my impressions of the men.

Usually situations like this would have been very awkward, but I had a really good relationship with Ryan's band. We shared alot of playful banter, and the guys would often tease Ryan by saying how hot I was and how lucky he was.

Ryan would usually laugh it off, he knew it was abit of fun "Safe to say there will be alot of happy readers next week" Ryan laughed "They are awesome photos baby" he smiled as he handed me my phone back.

"Thanks" I reply before kissing him.

"Ew cut it out you two" Brent laughs and throws a cushion at us "It's like being on a 6 month honeymoon with you guys" me and Ryan both laugh as we throw a cushion each back at Brent.

"We're here" Leroy comes in to the lounge area. Leroy has been travelling with me alot over the last 3 years, he has been helping the guys with security on tour too. But mainly he is my chaperone when I am by myself or with Freya.

Thing is, things had exploded in the press recently after a threat was made against my life, by Nick's mom. She had released some unforgivable photos and an evil Magazine article about a devastating time in mine and Nick's lives. I reacted and she told me to watch my back because she has people watching me. Of course Ryan also reacted by making a defensive comment to a journalist which added fuel to the fire and blew everything up beyond belief.

Tony and Harriet had taken extra steps to ensure my safety and Ryan's, but our life's had become abit hectic since our wedding and being together in one place had become rare.

Europe was going to be great, a nice break for both of us, even though technically Ryan was working. It would be good to spend some time together properly without me having to hop from one state to the next.

The Vampire show I started filming a couple of years ago had become more popular than any of us had first anticipated and I had already signed a contract for two more series. I also had some movie roles to consider. Ryan and the rest of the band had just released their third album and were a few weeks away from starting a 160 plus, date tour, which they were very excited about. Things were great for us at this moment in time, we had so much to look forward too.

X-x-x

I frowned as I got off the bus and saw a group of fans and some photographers waiting by the airport entrance "Oh great" I exhaled as Ryan helped me down off the bus. The rest of the guys went in ahead, they were stopped in their tracks by some of the fans. I grabbed Ryan's hand and dragged my trolley suitcase behind me, as we got to the photographers Ryan moved in front of me. Leroy went ahead of us and made a clear walk way. I could hear mumbled voices in my ear as we managed to push our way inside the entrance.

Six of the photographers ran in next to us and started taking photos of us as we walked through the airport "This is fun" I exclaimed sarcastically as photographers ran in front and beside us clicking insanely at their cameras. Ryan hadn't let go of my hand.

"Hey Abi how do you feel about Nick's new girlfriend? Is it true you don't get along?" A guy yelled.

"We get along just fine thanks" I reply as I look at Ryan "Can you believe this? " I laugh.

"Yep" he nods "We have to catch a plane now, have a nice day" he also has a sarcastic tone. He let's me walk up the escalator first the stands behind me. The airport security team had closed in around the bottom of the escalator so it was impossible for them to follow us into the departure lounge. Leroy was waiting at the top for us, he had already informed some of the security team up here that we were on our way "God I love on line check-ins" Ryan laughed as we sat at a table for 10. The rest of the guys joined us, we laughed as we watched some of the crew taking our bags.

"I can't believe how insane that was" Drew sighed as he slumped in a chair "You really weren't kidding when you said it would explode"

"Yeah it's insane" I reply as I look at Ryan regretfully "Hopefully Europe won't be too bad"

"Hey don't blame yourself" Zach interrupts "It's not your fault your ex Mother-in-Law is a psycopath, it will die off eventually and besides Brent loves all the extra attention"

Well all laugh harmoniously "Yeah well you know, I've gotta let the ladies know what's on offer"

"Oh they already know man, that's why we need all this security" Ryan teased, I feel Ryan move his arm around the back of my chair as he relaxes and stretches "So what's the plans for touch down in Paris?"

"Sleep" Zach groans and the others nod.

"What about you guys?" Eddie asks as he looks at me and Ryan.

"Oh yeah bed definately" Ryan replies as I raise my eyebrows at him, he shares my michevious smile.

"Yeah ok too much information there guys" Eddie cringes at us before turning his attention to Leroy.

I take a sip of water from the bottle I have in my Birkin, I can feel Ryan's eyes watching me "What?" I smile as I look at him.

"Just admiring what is mine" he replies before kissing me again. We laugh as we feel paper napkins being thrown at us...
