Picture is Jamie.



In the morning, I'm awoken by loud voices and Jamie shaking me.

"Wake up, Luxe."

"No," I moan, opening one eye and the light is so bright I immediately close it again.

"Max sent me in here to wake you. We have to leave in a half hour."

I fully open my eyes, squinting because of the light and see that Jamie is already dressed in khakis and a t shirt. He's bent over packing up a suitcase. I notice his things are around the room, this must be his room. Then it occurs to me that I may have slept in Jamie's bed last night, shit.

"Sorry for last night," I mumble, as I sit up and I can already tell this day is going to be a struggle.

"No big deal, but you were very talkative last night" Jamie chuckles, turning to look at me with big brown eyes.

"Damn," I curse, hoping to God that I didn't say anything stupid. I make my way to the bathroom and look into the mirror, my blonde hair is a mess and my makeup is a little smeared under my eyes. I slip out of the shirt that someone put me in, Jamie's shirt? Then I get into shower and do my thing to get ready. I pack up my stuff and we drive back to the arena because today is the show. Jared just handed me a huge coffee and smiled at me this morning. No one said anything else about last night so I guess I wasn't too bad.

It was probably a bad decision to get that drunk, I just didn't want to feel anything. This morning I'm feeling pretty hungover though, which sucks.

I stand guard in my assigned position during rehearsal and when they're finally done we go for a quick break and then the guys have some VIP meet and greets. All I want to do is sleep and watch Netflix but my training has taught me to keep on going and to be on full alert.

"Let's make this fast," Kellan says stalking into the room, he's talking about the meet and greet that they are having in a few moments. Apparently, last night Kellan brought a girl back and they were pretty loud. Leo was complaining about it this morning.

"Hey, the fans make all this possible!" Leo defends their fan base. Kellan flips him off and waits for the people. Jamie rolls his eyes and sits down, apparently used to Kellan's behavior. To me, Kellan is a total ass. I'm not really sure why all of their fans love him so much. Yeah, he's the lead singer, Jamie plays bass and Leo is on the drums but that doesn't mean that he's the best one of the band members.

When the fans come in, they are so freaking loud. Squealing girls is so not my thing. Unless its me doing it, then I don't mind. Jared, Max, Alex and I stand guard watching and making sure that things do not get out of hand. The guys are super nice to the fans, they sign a million things and get a bunch of pictures. I tune into my intercom to talk to my brother while keeping watch.

"Tell me about last night," I say quietly enough for no one else but Landon to hear. Something happened last night during the regular Thursday night patrol that my section does and I want to hear exactly what went down.

"Hello to you too, Luxe. Well, we were doing the normal patrol. When someone threw a knife from out of bounds into the our area just a little. Uh, Zac and Lacey were in that area, they immediately ran after the source of the knife and they called some others over for help." Landon breathes for a moment then launches into the story.

"We found it to be a group of teenagers just playing pranks. But, of course, we had to bring them in for questioning. You know how Zari would never have just let that go." I watch as girls get their shirts and posters signed by Kellan, Jamie, and Leo, the boys all have huge smiles as they sign. Obviously they like pleasing their fans.
