Storm's POV
When I awake the next morning, after checking the time and seeing it is 7am, I lay there thinking for a while. The boys are leaving soon and I need to let them know if I'm going or not before it's too late. I think of the pros and con's before taking a deep breath and coming to a decision. I recheck the time and see it's around half 8 now. That took longer then I thought it would.
I dress in a pair of sweatpants and find a random hoodie, probably one of the boys but oh well. I trudge down the stairs in my socks, not feeling like doing much of anything, seeing the boys sitting at the table. Luke looks up shocked when he hears me thump down the stairs.
"Thought you would have gone for your run by now." Michael mumbles, not even looking up from his phone. I grunt in reply before eyeing each boy's food, they all eat different things so when it comes to stealing food at least I have choice.
I decide Calum's looks decent enough and shuffle over to him, crawling in his lap and nuzzling up to him. "Don't you have other things to do than steal my food?" he asks, faking annoyance.
"Probably but your food looks good." I mumble, still tired but knowing I need to eat to keep the boys of my back. He sighs before breaking his toast in half and handing me one of the halves. I kiss his cheek as a thank you before taking my toast with me to the living room to watch TV.
As I'm about to leave the room, I hear a cough from behind me. "Where do you think you're going?"Ashton asks, looking over the top of his phone at me.
"To watch TV." I reply before turning back around to walk out.
"You better be telling the truth." He mumbles.
I laugh as I walk down the hallway and stop at the door frame of the living room. "Whatever you say dad." I shout back to annoy him, hearing the rest of the boys laughing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I finished my toast a while ago and am currently watching Supernatural reruns. I hear the boys come into the room behind me; I'm sitting on the floor in front of the TV so the doorway is behind me. They settle down in various spaces around the room, chatting quietly to each other when someone mentions the tour. As soon as I hear that, I turn the TV off and turn to face them.
"When do you guys leave?" I inquire.
"In...2 days I think...yeah" Calum mumbles, checking his phone quickly for the date.
I nod thinking things over. "If I go..." I start, putting emphasis on 'if' so all they know right now is that I have thought about it, "Are you sure everything will work out?" I ask.
"I don't see why it wouldn't? I mean, there are currently more bunks than people on our bus and I already talked to the school about sending you your work online, other things we can deal with as they arise." Michael explains. I raise an eyebrow at him when he mentions talking to the school, and suddenly he looks a little sheepish.
"How come I get the impression that whatever I say, I'm going to end up going anyway?" I grumble, sounding more annoyed that I really am.
"That's not true, so maybe I talked to the school about it but that was before we said anything to you. Anyway, I missed you when I was off on tour and maybe I really want you come with me this time so we can be just like old times." He explains himself quickly.
"Just like old times, huh? You better live up to that expectation then or you can sleep on the floor of every hotel." I warn, biting my lip to stop myself smiling when his eyes widen as well as the other boys.
"You mean you..." He starts but trails off. I nod softly as I begin to smile and the next thing I know I have 4 very tall boys piling on top me and hugging me so tightly.
When they let go, I take a second to breathe before getting up. "Better start packing so I don't forget anything." I state before walking out of the room. I stop at the bottom of the stairs before back tracking. "By the way, whose hoodie is this?"
The boys look over and quickly look at the hoodie before one of them raises their hand.
"Mine, why?" Ash asks.
I huff looking down at the hoodie, "Makes sense that the sleeves are so stretched now. Huge ass arms of yours are ruining perfectly good clothes."
"Well its mine so I can 'ruin' it if I want." He states, smirking as he thinks he won.
"Not anymore." I smirk, waving innocently as he growls at me and glares halfheartedly as I leave and actually reach my room this time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today is the day we leave and let's just say I really am not a morning person and I never will be but I still blame the boys for that. Yesterday, the other boys went home to their families, apart from Calum who Skyped his, and spent their last full day with them. Michael spent all day packing because he didn't do it and mum had a go at him.
This is going to sound weird but my parents are happy that I'm going on tour with Mikey. I mean, I'm not the most sociable person and rarely go out so this is a huge step for me in their eyes. Zeke, Ry, Blaine and Alexis came round yesterday morning and hung out with us and when I told them they promised that no matter what time it was they would pick up.
It's currently 4am and I am dressed similar to yesterday in sweatpants and a hoodie, this time it is one I stole from Calum a couple days and have been hiding from him since then so he wouldn't take it back. I, literally, throw my suitcase down the stairs and trudge down after it, seeing Calum laughing as he hold the door open when I reach the bottom.
"I didn't know you owned a flying suitcase Storm. You must tell me where you got it so I can get one to." Luke jokes as he uses the door frame to stay upright as he laughs as Ashton's shocked face. Ash is just standing there staring at the suitcase then back at me before looking back at the case. I flip Luke off and flick Ashton nose to bring him back to real world.
I hear Michael reach the landing and pull Ashton and Calum out of the way as Michael's 2 bags come flying down the stairs.
"What is with this family and throwing things down the stairs?" My mum shakes her head amusedly.
"Says the one that threw her high heels down the stairs yesterday and nearly killed my brother." I state, not in the mood for joking, I am way too tired for this. This causes her to look guilty and for Calum to start laughing as he remembers the event.
Luke and Ashton look wide-eyed at my mother as my dad makes no move to defend her, she mutters about it being an accident and that we're bullying her before walking off to finish her coffee and continue getting ready for work. My dad laughs before following her both calling out goodbyes as the boys drag my one bag and Michael's two to the car to join their own before we set off for the airport.
Apparently the boys of One Direction wanted my first experience of tour life to be a bit calmer so we're flying in their private jet to meet them wherever it is they are now. We go straight through security and straight onto the plane. I curl up in my seat leaning my head on Michael's shoulder; he is next to me at the moment, as he leans his head on mine. We're both pretty tired so we are both asleep before the plane even takes off, leaving the other boys to fend for themselves although I have a feeling their doing something similar at this time in the morning.
