My best friend's band mate

Chapter 6

Niall's POV

My phone started ringing waking me up. I answered before checkig the caller ID. "Niall love is it you?" A familiar voice asked. "Mum?" I asked still waking up. "Yea. Did I wake you?" She asked. "No mum." I said rubbing my eyes. "I know I did. I just wanted to tell you how much I love you. I have to get going. Bye my baby." My mum said before putting the phone down in my ear. That was odd I thought to myself. I got up and walked to the back of the bus. Amy and Liam were sitting there under a blanket, im not gona say I wasn't jealous because I really was jealous even though I know she was just friends with him. "Hey Ni. What ya doing up?" Liam asked sitting up a bit. "Mum called and now I cant sleep and you two?" I asked as I sat down. "Once a month Amy and I used to have a movie night at 1 in the morning to irritate our parents so we decided to do it again." Liam said pausing the movie that was on. Amy crawled over to me and cuddled closer to me. "So what you watching?" I asked kissing her head. "Home movies..." she said into my chest. Liam pressed play and there were 2 little kids in the screen, a girl and a boy, the little girl ran around in a park screaming while the little boy chased after her with something in his hands. "Daddy tell Liam to stop scaring me." The little girl cried as she ran up to a older man. "Amy-lee im sorry." Little Liam said puting whatever he had in his hands on the floor and walking up to her with his arms open. Little Amy turned around and ran into his arms, even as little kids Liam was taller than her. I giggled a little seeing that they have always been the way that they are. "This is so cute." I said with a little giggle. "Yea we were adorable." Amy said pretending to brush her hair off of her shoulders. I laughed alittle until her phone rang. She got up and looked at the caller ID then walked to the front of the bus.

Amy-lee's POV

"Hey mum."I said as I answered the phone. "Hi Ams. How are you doing?" My mum asked. "Im doing okay under the circumstances and you mum?" I asked wonder how they are holding up. "Im okay my love. Your dad on the other hand has locked himself in his office." She said with a sad tone. "Mum why dont you take dad to go visit him?" I asked. "Baby we cant just leave our lives and fly half way around the world." My mom said with a little sniffle. "But anyways are you okay. Has Liam already started to try and make it better?" She asked before I could say anything else. "Yea mum he has. He had me watch a bunch of home videos." I said with a little giggle. "Im glad love. Have you told Niall yet?" She asked. "Mum....I....I cant....not yet..... Niall thinks..... he doesnt know yet mum..." I said sounding alot more sad. I stood up from where I was sitting on the floor. "Honey you have to... show him a video or get Liam to tell him... but he needs to know" my mum said before I heard my dad scream in the background which caused my eyes to tear up. "Mum I have to go... I love you tell dad I love him... I will call you later..." I said before I hung up. I sat down on the floor in front of the fridge crying. I just let the tears fall not worrying about who saw or heard me. Hearing my dad scream like that made it even worse I hated it. Liam walked in to look for me and immediately bent down handing me a tissue. "Mum ......called..." I said wiping my tears away. "She....she...she said I....I...I... must...tell Niall" I said in between sobs. Liam just hugged me for a few minutes then pulled me up. "Do you want all the lads to know or just Niall?" He asked him with a sympathetic look. I needed to tell all of them not just Niall they all deserved to know. "All" was al I said before I wiped my tears away. Just in time because 4 boys came walking in smiling until theu saw Liam and I standing there. "We need to talk to you." Liam said seriously pointing towards the table. The lads sat down around it and I stood there looking at them. Its now or never Amy I told myself. "Okay I wasnt 100% honest woth you guys about my past..." I said calmly. I could see the confusion on everyone's faces but it was the most prominent on Niall's. "When you asked why I moved to the UK I said my parents wanted to... but thats only half the truth... we moved to the UK to get away. We moved because 3 months before we moved to the UK my brother passed away. He was 16 when he passed away, some idiot shot him at school one day... my parents..... they wanted to leave the country because....because everything reminded them of him... I was 9 when this happened... I actually knew my brother very well we were like best friends... when he got shot... I broke.... I didnt speak for 4 months.... Liam was the one who got me to speak again...." I said as I felt a tear roll down my face. "Today 9 years ago.... my brother took his last breath...." I said before I burst out into tears. I felt a pair of arms wrap around me. "Its okay love its okay." Niall said as he hugged me. After I cried for a few minutes before all 6 of us grabbed some ice cream with forks for Liam's sake and headed to the back of the bus. So I could show them a video of my brother.

Liam put in a tape and pressed play. A lady popped up on the screen. "Today was a horrific day at Southerland High where 16 year old Steven Juan Feild was shot by a peer. Sources say that it was just a normal school day until Daniel Geyer, the shooter, pulled a gun out of his blazer pocket and shot Steven Feild." The lady said while they showed a photo of my brother in the right hand corner of the screen. I paused the recording and walked towards the tv staring at my brother.... I missed him so much....

Liam's POV

It was the same thing every year. She would play this recording and sit there staring at her brother. I could see Niall feeling un comfortable like he should do something but doesnt know what to do. Harry and Louis were crying together in a corner and Zayn sat there with a blank look on his face deep in thought. I stood up and took the tape out of the machine. "Thats it Ams. We've done this tape thing everyday for the past 8 years we not gona do this again. It ends now." I said a little more sharply than I wanted it to sound. Everyone looked at me shocked at what I just said. She smiled realizing what I was doing. "Dont break this copy to please." She said taking the tape from my hand. Confusion written all over the other lads faces. "He does that to get me to stop crying. He normally takes me shopping to." She said as she sat on Niall's lap. "Well then lets go shopping." Zayn said smiling realizing he could do something to cheer her up.
