The Fifth Member for a Summer or Two

Chapter Ten

"We can't stoooop. And we won't stooooop!" I sang to microphone.

"Miley lives out here doesn't she?" I laughed. "I'm not hating on her by the way, she's a queen."

"No! Beyoncé is queen!" Calum said into his mic looking back at me.

"...true. Okay, then Miley's a princess." I laughed.

I walked out to the edge of the stage and let the crowd see my Miley tank top and twerked very badly. They all cheered and laughed as I went back to my piano.

"And that's why I play piano." I giggled.

We were at our second to last show of the tour. We had one more tomorrow night here again.

"Alright, LA! You've been an amazing crowd, we have one more song!" Luke said into his mic.

And then we started the song.

We jammed out and said good bye before running off the stage. It was a killer show for us.

Before I knew it, I was in the air, all of the boys lifting me up and cheering. I laughed and joined in with them.

"Guys!" I laughed.

"Oh! I got that in a picture!" An older lady said off to the right of us.

"Mum? Mum!" Luke said leaving us and running over to the older lady.

Believe it or not, I had never officially met the boys' parents. I'd seen them before, but not enough to be able to recognize them in a crowd, or pick them out.

Luke hugged her tightly as she began to cry and hug him back.

"I've missed you so much." He said pulling back.

"Calum! Mikey! Ashton! Come give me a hug now too! You three are my boys too!" She said holding her arms out for them. They all hugged her.

And I stood there like an awkward turtle, looking down at the ground.

"Wow, you guys have never met." Luke said looking back at me.

"Nope..." I said popping the p.

"Isn't that a shame?" Luke's mom laughed.

"I'm Liz, honey." She said.

"I'm Annie." I smiled.

And then she pulled me into a tight hug. She let me go and looked from me to Luke.

"You two can explain all of the stuff I see on twitter later." She said.

Luke blushed, and I could feel my cheeks heating up.

Over the past few weeks, we've been less careful of who's seen our displays of affection. So, obviously the fans have seen some of it. And obviously they've taken it and ran with it. There are now twitter pages that want me dead. There are ones that love it. Ones that think I should be with one of the other boys. It's ridiculous. But, Luke and I haven't officially started dating.

And god, I thought the sexual frustration was bad before. It was nothing like it is now. We've gotten so close to having sex so many times recently, it's ridiculous. But, obviously the world doesn't want us to.

"You coming?" Luke asked pulling me from my thoughts.

"What?" I asked, snapping out of it.

"Showers?" He asked.

"Oh. Yes. I'm sticky and I stink." I laughed.

He took my hand, intertwining our fingers and led me to the showers.
