Kendall's POV

No way. This CANNOT be happening. There is no way that I, Kendall Williams, am going on tour with my enemies, One Direction. 

"WHAT?!" Louis and I shout at the same time, I give him the evil eyes and he gives them back. Stupid jerk. I roll my eyes and look back at my Dad, who has his 'you are not getting out of this one Kendall Williams' face on. Shit. This is the only way that I can never get my own way with Dad, when he has this face on I'm screwed. He shakes his head disapprovingly and walks towards me.

"Kenny," he says placing his rough hand on my shoulder."Can I talk to you in private?" I nod glumly and he leads me outside to the forbidden place in our garden, the place we never bear to set foot in, the fountain. 

I feel my eyes start to fill with tears as we approach it, I quickly wipe them away. Kendall Williams never cries. This used to be my Mums favourite place in the garden, the beautiful marble fountain. The gardeners weren't allowed here because Mum liked to tend it herself. And she did a far better job then any lowly gardener could have ever done. The white marble was always polished and gleaming, the land surrounding the fountain was a sea of multi-coloured roses, from candyfloss pink to cinnamon crunch orange. In front of the fountain was a sky blue bench that Mum had painted herself, everyday when Cara and I were little, Mum would bring us out here to read us a story before bedtime or before she left for a show and then we would watch the sunset over our house. Everyday without fail, but when I was ten the stories became fewer and shorter, my Mum was slow on her feet now and constantly exhausted from dancing- or so I thought. And one day they stopped because their storyteller wasn't there anymore. When my Mother died so did the beauty if this place, we refused to have the gardeners tend it, so the place fell into disarray.  

Now the marble was a dirty greyish colour and the stone was dusty and cracked. The water that remained inside the fountain was brown and stank. The roses had long since dies and horrible weeds had replaced them. Dad sniffled, it was hard for him to be here too. To see a place so beautiful fade away just like the beautiful person who had made it was heartbreaking. We walked over to the bench, the paint was peeled and it creaked as we sat on it. Dad took my hands. 

"Kenny," he began."I know you and the boys might not see eye to eye but does this really matter? This is your dream Kendall and you shouldn't give it up for because of some petty spat." I start to protest but a strong gust of wind stops me because the wind blew something I would never have expected, it blew rose petals. Dad didn't seem to notice it and continued. 

"Dancing is your passion Kendall, and think that it what you were put on this Earth to do honey I really do... Just like your mother. She's there Kenny I can feel her presence whenever you dance and I can tell she's up there, dancing with you. So don't stop, stay with her and never have a last dance. Even if I am not with you she will be. Just think about it." Then he walks off, leaving me stunned. Another rose petal blew into my face and I looked around, there was a single rose in this place, so how could there be so many rose petals around? Then it hit me, Mum. I looked up at the sky and a single tear ran down my face. 

"I'll do it, Mum. Dance with me."

The week went by in a flash and before I knew it, I was standing in Terra'a bedroom fixing my graduation robes. I stared at the girl in the mirror, my makeup was natural and my hair was styled in a side fishtail plait, but I wasn't done yet. I rummaged in my bag and popped a stick of bubblegum in my mouth... Perfect. Suddenly a wild Terra appears and screams in my ear, 

"OI WILLIAMS WE GOTTA GO!" Then disappears, good going Terra considering that I am now deaf. I sprint downstairs and tackle an unsuspecting Jed to the floor. 

"Get yo arse outta my face you mug!" He squeals girlishly. I giggle. 

"Chill Winston!" I say as I get to my feet and before I know it I am flying through the air and end up face planting the sofa.  

"Jempimagunnfakielya!" I scream, the leather muffling my voice.  

"I can't hear ya over the sound if me RUNNING AWAAAAAY!" Jed legs it out the front door and into the car where Terra is waiting. I sit up and straighten out my robes. Adulthood here I come.

I beam as I shake the head teachers hand as she gives me the certificate after she pats me on the back. 

"Kendall Williams everybody!" She announces and people start to clap just like they did with every other student. I walk back to my position amongst the others and look out into the sea of people. I see everybody, Dad, Cara, Anna, Niall... Wait WHAT?! I stare at the blonde Irish boy, who winks at me. I look to see the other twats standing next to him grinning like idiots at me-apart from Louis who is sending me daggers. Niall winks and starts to do that posh clap where you use two fingers. I roll my eyes and mouth 'Can you not.' At him, to which he chuckles and looks back at the centre of the stage. I must say out of all if them I like Niall the most, he's funny and really cute... Whoa Kenny slow down, this is NIALL you're thinking about. Why are they even here? Then it hits me, the tour starts tomorrow. I mentally slap myself, I must have forgotten with all the training I've been doing. Cara had to pack my suitcase because I was too tired to do it myself. A whole six month tour with my enemies... Ironic YOLO.

I didn't go to the after party because I need to rest, we leave at ten o'clock sharp tomorrow morning, the first show is on Sunday so the girls and I seriously need to focus on the choreography. I sit in my living room with my earphones in having my own little rave to 'Radioactive' by Rita Ora. To be honest I am quite looking forward to this tour, even though it's a 1D tour it'll be a great way to start my career in dance. Suddenly the door flies open and Anna, Terra and the boys flood into my living room with McDonalds. Zayn throws me a box of chicken nuggets and screams 

"VATS HAPPENIN' KENDALL!" I burst into a fit of laughter and nearly spill my chicken nuggets everywhere. Liam passes me a strawberry milkshake and some chips and plops down next to me. Zayn sits with Terra, Louis sits on the chair opposite and Anna and Harry settle down on the big loveseat, emphasise 'love' seat because they start feeding each other and whispering things in each others ears. I am warning you Styles if you break her heart you're a dead man.

Niall walks in with his phone to his ear, he has a worried look on his face and is pacing up and down the centre of the room. 

"Aww poor Josh!" He says. "Oh you found one? He's on his way over? Great!" On cue the doorbell rings and Niall rushes out to answer it,I hear his happy voice greet someone. He walks in the doorway with a huge grin on his face, there's someone behind him but I could see their face, Niall clears his throat. 

"Management just called, Josh Devine has fallen down the stairs and broke his arm so he can't come on tour anymore," he says and a wave of 'what about the drummer?' Flows through the room. "But they've found a replacement!" He quickly moves to the side to reveal who was standing there and I spit my milkshake everywhere and instantly feel sick to my stomach. No this can't be happening.  

"Kendall? Are you okay?" Says Liam with a hint of concern in his voice. I look up, everyone was staring at me now. I get up and run out if the room. 

"Kendall? Kendall!" I hear Louis shout, he starts to run after me and is gaining on me quickly, thankfully I'm faster. I reach the bathroom and hurl myself inside, locking the door. I can barely breath. There was a soft knock, 

"Kendall please open the door!" Louis says softly on the other side. I stand silently hoping that he would leave. He doesn't and I couldn't take it any longer, I start sobbing uncontrollably and my legs buckle. I fall slamming my head against the door hard. I bury my in my hands. Oh god no, I can't do this.
