And the day I was so nervous about came unexpectedly soon. In fact, it was the following day, since some issue with management made the boys do the livestream was earlier.
It was a nice day, but I still couldn't fully appreciate it from all the tension
I was hiding.
R5 was going to film in the livingroom, to make the whole thing a bit more informal.
I was standing next to Ryland behind the camera, nervously tapping my foot on the floor.
"It's going to be alright Hailie! Don't be so nervous!" Said Riker in a happy tone, failing to hide his own nervousness.
"Ready" Asked Ryland. They all nodded.
"Ok, live in 3...2...1"
"Hi we're R5" they said all together.
"We have a few announcements to mak" said Ross smirking.
"So, not wasting any time..." said Rydel.
"...here we go with announcement #1" completed Ell. Let me just say Rydellington is real.
They glanced at eachother then exclaimed at the same time.
"We have a new album coming out!!!". The boys started clapping, whistling and making a lot of noise.
They took turns explaining how the album was going to be released soon and the oncoming world tour.
"And here we go with the last announcement" said Rocky happily.
"It's more of a private thing" added Ross as the others nodded in approval.
"We adopted a new sister" squealed Rydel.
"Actually I did" laughed Riker trying to ease the tension.
"And here she is" sang Ell extending his arms toward me.
I made my way to where they were and sat next to them smiling.
Surprisingly, I wasn't that nervous anymore and I started introducing myself.
"Hello everyone, I'm Hailie and I'm going to be 16 next month" I said waving.
"We adopter her in June and she is amazing!" Said Ross.
I was flustered and smiled.
"And she's coming on tour with us, so you might meet her as well" cheered Riker.
After that, they quickly ended the livestream since Mark said they were running out of time.
We all grabbed our phones and logged in on twitter to check the reaction of the fans.
Most of them were fangirling over the new album and tour, but the rest was hate.
There was the 'usual' hate by stupid kids toward R5, but now fans were hating on me.
I knew it was majorly caused by jealousy, but it still hurts when you have hundreds of insults in your timeline.
I was determined not to let it ruin my day, so I simply tossed my phone on the table and went in my room.
That afternoon I had a date with Michael after all, and I needed to get ready.
Just as I was done, Riker came into my room.
"Have you read the comments?"
"Yep" I said trying not to look at him in the eyes.
"And what do you think?"
"They'll love the album". I was purposely avoiding the topic.
"I hope so". After a few moments of silence he continued,
"Seriously, are you... ok?"
"Yes, Riker. I don't care about what they say". That sounded harsher than expected but I guess Riker understood that too and ignored my tone.
"Alright, if you wanna talk just come to any of us. We have to deal with hate, too" he reminded me while walking out of the room.
"Riker, wait!"
"Yeah?"
"Can you ehm drive me to Michael's house, like, right now?"
"Sure" he smirked than shook his head trying to hide the smile that was slowly creeping on this face.
I followed him to the car and sat in. I buckled my seat belt and as we approached the house I grew nervous with each second (like I always did when I was about to see the galaxy haired boy).
"And here we are" said Riker winking.
"Have fun but not too much" he added as I rang the doorbell.
