The Last Direction (Third Book to 'The Daughters')

The Secret

*Alex's POV*

*Two Hours Later*

Okay, there is still two hours until showtime and I am honestly really nervous. I don't know why I feel this way. I don't usually get this nervous before a show.

"Okay, is anyone else suddenly getting really nervous for the show later?" Annemarie said suddenly, shaking me from my thoughts.

"Absolutely." I replied instantly.

"Why? I's just like any other show?" Jessica asked curiously.

"Well, for one thing, it's our last show in our North American leg of the tour." I replied.

"And the fact that our fathers won't answer the phone doesn't help either. I don't know about the rest of you, but my father always has a way to calm me down right before a show."  Annemarie added.

"You have a point." Jessica said with sudden realization.

Emily was just about to add to our conversation when the door to our dressing room opened and in came one of the crew members.

"Just so you know Simon's here and he wants to see Alex and Jamie." He informed us.

"Where are we meeting him?" Jamie asked.

"He's on stage." The crew member replied.

"Okay. Thank you." Jamie thanked before he walked out.

"Okay, I don't know about you, but I am kind of nervous." I told Jamie as we walked out of the dressing room.

"Yeah, me too." She replied.

Once we reached the stage, we found Simon standing out on stage with some other people, that I couldn't recognize from the distance. But as Jamie and I grew closer, I saw five figures that I knew all too well. I think Jamie did too, because once we saw them, we immediately took off in a sprint. Once we reached them, I immediately jumped on my father and gave him the biggest hug I have ever given him, while he just laughed.

"Well hello to you too." He said as he put me down.

"What are you guys doing here?" Jamie said in disbelief.

"We came here to surprise you." Harry said happily,

"And surprise your three other friends." Liam added as we gave them a confused look.

"Your Harry and Niall didn't tell you?" Zayn asked in confusion.

"Well it was a little hard considering  we haven't spoken to them in a while." I told them.

Liam, Louis, and Zayn gave the two a look while Liam and Louis smacked the back of their heads.

"Hey, was that for?" Niall whined as he rubbed the back of his head.

"So how are you surprising Emily, Jessica, and Annemarie with other than your presence?" I asked.

"Oh yeah, almost forgot. Come on out!" Simon yelled. I forgot he was standing there. Oops.

Suddenly three figures came out of nowhere and as they got closer my jaw dropped and my eyes popped out of my head.

"No way." Jamie and I said in unison.

"Well, don't looked so surprised." Perrie said with a huge smile on her face.

"I thought you were supposed to be missing?" I said to her, then turn toward Simon. "I thought they were supposed to be missing."

The 9 of them just laughed at our expression.

"They were missing, but around the time you left for tour we found them." Simon explained to us.
