*Ashleys POV*

While Rian, Jack, and Alex were out at the pool with Haley, I decided I'd have a day to myself. I went to the mall, got my nails done and got a ton of new clothes for me and Haley. I loved her to death but I could get used to having free time.

I went back to the bus around 3, the guys weren't back yet and there was barely anybody on the bus. It was completely silent except Zack in his bunk singing along to the music I can faintly hear through his headphones. I was about to go into Rians bunk to take a quick catnap before they came back, when Zack opened his curtain. He must have heard me come in. "hi" he said awkwardly. "hey" I said with a slight wave. That's all we said before he awkwardly closed his curtain once agai not. I climbed up into Rians bunk and cuddles into his blanket, I stared at the fan art taped onto the wall. I slowly drifted away listening to the faint humming coming from zacks bunk.

I woke up to a ton of loud laughter. I walked to the front lounge where Jack and Haley were on the ground laughing to death, with Ri and Alex tickling them both. I can't lie it was pretty adorable. I loved seeing my baby girl spending some time with her dad. I love how she connects with him, it's also crazy to me how close her and Jack are. You wouldn't even guess that he's this good with children

The guys ordered pizza for dinner and had a few beers, yes I should be opposed to them drinking with my daughter around but I could tell they wouldn't be to wild. Rian on the other hand only had one, he told me he wanted to be a responsible father so he decided to keep the alcohol consumption to a minimum.

Shortly after it was 8:30, and they had been at the venue getting ready to play a show. I decided we should go along and watch them play. We've been on the bus 2 1/2 days and only watched one show. I decided to wake Haley up from her nap and asked if she wanted to go watch. She sprung right up nodding her head rapidly. "okay baby, calm down, we'll go when they go" I told her trying to settle her down.

Once all of the band and crew were off the bus and heading to the venue, I followed closely behind with Haley on my hip. Nobody was outside because there was already an opening band playing, so we didn't have to worry about fans seeing us. Rian slowed down and waited for us, he had something in his hand. "Here's these, I don't know how long you'll stay with us, but if you decide to stay awhile here's your VIP passes," he said handing me 2 passes. "Thanks Rian" I said giving him a side hug. He held his hands out towards Haley and gave me a questioning nod, asking if he could hold her. I nodded, kissed her on the cheek and handed her over to her father. He kept running and jumping around to excite her and it was working, she was in a fit of laughter.

I watched all of the boys, except Rian, jump around on stage, it's crazy how much energy they had. Jack was running around doing crazy things and messing with Zack. Rian was up on the drums killing it. I looked down at Haley, who was standing beside me, and she looked so happy, she was singing along and dancing. I loved how this band, well I guess her dad and...uncles? could magically brighten up her day.

Once the show was over Haley ran up to Rian giving him a big hug, he picked her up and hugged her some more. "Good job daddy!" she yelled in excitement. "Thanks princess!" he said kissing her cheek. He continued getting cleaned up from the show with her on his hip.

"Daddy's going to take a shower, so let's go back to mommy" Rian said walking over to me. I took Haley from him as he went off the shower. Haley hasn't showered since we got here, I wonder if there's showered in the lady's room. luckily there was. "Hey Alex, " I called over to him before he went into the showers, "yeah" he saiid turning to us. "Is it okay if we take a shower quick" I asked gesturing to my daughter. "Yeah no problem, do you have her pajamas with you?" he asked. "No they're on the bus, should I go get them?" I asked. "No no no! don't ever go out to the bus after a show! fans galore!" he said with a serious face. "here I think Rian has an extra shirt in his bag," he said digging through Rians stuff. Surely enough he had one.

I walked out of the shower room with Haley in her oversized shirt. "Aww! is that my shirt?" Rian said when he saw her. "Yeah, Alex gave it to me." I told him. Haley just smiled in response, she was tired from everything she's done today. The water park wore her out enough, and then a concert only made her more tuckered out.

Tonight Rian wanted to sleep in his own bed so he made Jack and Alex clean out their junk bunk. For now, this is my bunk. Haley will just sleep with whoever. Tonight she fall asleep in Rians bunk, I decided to let her stay there. The guys were up until 10-11 ish that night.

At about 3am I woke up to go pee and on my way back to my bed I peeked in Rians bunk to see him and Haley cuddling closely as they softly snored. It was the most adorable thing id seen in a while. I'm happy he could be a good dad for Haley.
