Here's another chapter! Sorry for the late update but I'm away at my dads and only have wifi in certain places. :P

Enjoy!! ~Syd

SYDNEY'S POV:

I wake up the next morning, regretting last night. I mean, it was one stupid comment! Im such a loser!

We won't be doing anything today, well at least I won't. The boys have sound check and a concert. But we still have all day to just sit and wait for the bus to get to the location.

I get up, and notice that it looks like all the boys were still sleeping. I take this moment to go into the bathroom. I brush my teeth, put my hair up, and get dressed in a pair of grey sweats and a black Ramones tee. I walk into the living area of the bus and see Niall sitting on the couch eating a bowl of cereal.

"Oh hey Niall. Thought you were asleep." I say

"No, woke up early for some reason." He responds. That's when he turns on the TV, and the conversation stops.

NIALLS POV:

I saw them. The scars. Some even looked recent. I turn on the tellie and focus on that before I say something stupid.

I've decided my decision to not trust Sydney was bad. I can tell she won't be pulling any stunts. And there's always this look in her eyes. Sadness and loneliness. When she was laughing though, her eyes shined with happiness. 'But the scars.' I think, and can't keep what I want to say inside.

"Sydney, can I see your wrist?"

"No." The answer is almost instant.

"Why? Why do you do that to your self?" I ask quietly, in case one of the boys over hear.

" I-I don't want to talk about this right now."

"You need to talk about it though. I promise, I won't tell any of the boys." And I mean what I say.

SYDNEY'S POV:

I believe what he says. I guess it's the look in his eyes. "Promise?"

"Promise."

"My dad used to beat my mom. He got put away, thank god, but when people found out about the ordeal, I started getting bullied. They said my mom was pathetic and a horrible mother. They said I was the worst daughter ever. Said I should kill myself. That was my breaking point, and when I started cutting. Then you guys became a band, and I was, well still kinda am, the biggest directioner." I say looking down, blushing. I hear Niall chuckle.

"It was your guys's music that helped me stop for the most part. There were some days though, even when your music, or even the encouraging words of my only friend, I alway regret it afterwords. I don't like he fact that I do this to myself. I don't do it for attention. I had been, I guess you could say "sober", I say, using my fingers as quotation marks, "of cutting for a few weeks. Then I met Harry, and he said that comment. A comment like that won't usually bother me at all, but the fact that one of the people who had helped me one of the toughest times in my life had said it, I just cracked." I say, beginning to cry.

Niall then wraps me in a big warm hug. "Im so sorry about all the things you've been though, and about Harry. Ever since the breakup..."

"Yeah, Louis mentioned something about that. What exactly happened?" I ask.

"Harry was in love. None of the boys trusted the girl. The only reason she was with him was for fame. The whole time they were dating, she was sleeping around. One day Liam and I were at a club, where we saw her, hooking up with another guy. We tried to tell Harry, but all that did was make him mad. He even threatened to leave the band. Then, while Harry thought she was watching him at a concert, she was really hooking up with a guy on out tour bus. Harry caught them, and if course broke things off with the girl. I was glad, she was a total bitch."

"Sounds like it." I say.

"Yeah. Well after the breakup, Harry started drinking, a lot. Sleeping with a different girl every night. We shut down that behavior pretty fast, but now he's angry all the time. Rarely talks to us at all, and is always by himself. The only time we get to see the real Harry is when he's on stage. It's his passion, singing. It's all of ours. And I'm glad to be sharing our passion with you." Niall says, putting his heart into the little speech.

"I can't tell you how good it is to hear that." I say, giving him a smile. That's when my phone goes off, signaling a text from Maddie.

Maddie: hayy batch

I instantly smile. I are ready miss her so much, and its only been a day. "Someone special?" Niall asks.

"Yeah, but she's my beast friend, Maddie." I say while showing him a picture of her. It was one we took on our last day of school last year. Her face was makeup less, as usual. She doesn't need it though. She was wearing a sparkly teal shirt with black leggings and a pair of TOMS. Her light blond hair was pin strait also, and she had the biggest smile on her face. I on the other hand had on a bit of makeup, with a school tee shirt on and black sweats. My hair was up in a bun with loose strands falling around my face. We both looked so happy, and that summer was the best summer ever.

"Wow.." Is all Niall says. "When can I meet her?"

"We'll I was kinda thinking about asking her to come on your with us, considering I won't be doing any concerts. I answer, while texting Maddie back 'hayyyy gurllll'.

"Im calling Simon right now to ask." Niall says jumping up and running to his bunk to grab his phone. About 15 minutes later he come running back to me. "He said yes."

"Oh my gosh! I have to call her right now!" I say, calling Maddie. She answers the second ring.

"Hello?"

"MADDIE GUESS WHAT!"

"WHAT?!"

"Keep you cool ok! Promise?!"

"JUST ASK OK?!"

"Do you want to come on the remainder if the tour with me?"

"UMM YEAH!" She screams, blowing my eardrum.

"But you need to ask your dad!"

"Ok one sec!" She says, and I hear the phone being sat down. About ten minutes later, she's back.

"He said no..." And my face dropped. "Oh..ok..I guess it was a long shot anyway.." I say, my smile fading quickly.

"IM JOKING!!"

And we both scream, and I end up waking up the rest if the boys. Louis runs in, just his boxers I might add, with a fire extinguisher too, yelling "Whats going on in here?!"

"MADDIES COMING ON TOUR WITH US!" I yell. I can't help it, I'm too happy!

"Was that Louis?!" I hear Maddie say through the phone.

"Yeah!" Louis yells back.

"Let me see the phone." Niall says, reaching for my phone. I hand it over.

That's when Niall starts explaining whats going to happen. A private car will come to pick her up in about 3 hours, and to be packed. She should be here about when the concerts over. Ahh! I can't wait!! Niall then hands the phone back to me. "I gotta go Syd, need to pack! Byeee! She says dragging the 'e' out. "Byeeee!" I respond, also dragging out the 'e'.

"You all need to shut up." Harry says.

"Someone's grumpy this morning." I say with a slight smile, trying to get on good terms with Harry.

His head snaps up. "We'll maybe it I hadn't woken up by your annoying voice I would be in a better mood!" He yells, walking off. But not before he says, "I wish you would have never joined this band." And thats when I crack for the third time on the tour. 'It's only been a day...' I think.
