Forget Them, He Said

The Guys Thought...

Liam checked his phone again, waiting for a rebuttal video from Sutton. They'd released their song, knowing that the caption on the album would upset Sutton.

"Liam?" Ricky's annoyed tone cut through Liam's thoughts.

"Huh?" Liam looked up.

"I said, do you want to go get breakfast? We kinda got that awards show for Disney to go to," Ricky slipped on a pair of shoes, not caring what they were. He and the others were about to go to the show and change anyways.

"Uh, yeah, yeah," Liam fumbled with the shoes Ricky tossed and slipped them on, jogging out the hotel door after Ricky.

"Where's Emery?" Liam asked, slipping his phone into his hoodie pocket.

"Already down there," Ricky answered, pushing the elevator button. The doors split open and the two got in. The whole way to the first floor there wasn't any stops.

Liam and Ricky saw Emery, an empty plate in hand, heading back towards the food.

"Emery!" Ricky exclaimed.

"What?" Emery said with a mouthful of waffle.

"You're going to make us look like pigs," Liam laughed, grabbing a new plate for himself.

Ricky picked a plate up behind him.
Liam grabbed a couple of donuts and sausage links. He set his plate down and went back to get a cup of milk.
Ricky had switched out his plate for a bowl, filling it with cereal and milk, and joining Liam at the small table.

Emery soon joined them, a plateful of waffles, just as if it was his first trip going up there.

"You guys, we have to leave now," their manager walked up, checking his phone and glancing at them a little impatiently.

The guys sighed and threw away their food. Walking out of the hotel, Liam, Ricky, and Emery sulked, missing their food already.

They hopped in the van, ready to be taken to the show.

Once there, Liam, Emery and Ricky split into their different dressing rooms, coming out moments later, ready for the red carpet.

They walked out, posing by themselves. Close to the end, they came together for group pictures. Emery did his signature move and the guys held him (like picture above).
. . .
"I can't believe them!" Sutton yelled in distress. Jon came quickly from the game room and into Sutton's room.

"What?" Jon asked, sitting beside Sutton on her bed.

"They act like they never met me!" She threw her phone in Jon's lap, he looked at the picture of the guys together, doing a familiar pose.

"Let's get your mind off it. Let's head on tour today. We can go to that red carpet event I told you about," Jon suggested, trying to calm down his girlfriend.

"Okay," Sutton smiled and kissed him on the cheek.

Soon both were packed and ready to head out. Sutton gave her goodbye hugs, to her mom and Petunia, telling them to tell Maggie she would see them soon. Jon took her hand and let her out to his newly arrived tour bus.

They boarded it and Sutton felt giddiness rise in her stomach.
