Living the High Life

Chapter 10

25th June Paris, France.

While we were in Paris Charlotte and the 5sos boys are in Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

I love Paris so much it's such a beautiful place it's just the pace to relax and chill out.

I had to work but I wasn't complaining. Working meant being with the boys and being with boys is where I wanted to be.

"Ready boys?" I said knock on James and Brad's room on the morning of the first show in Paris. We were doing a bit of sight seeing this morning before heading the the venue.

"Yeah, coming." Came Brad's voice.

I went to make sure Tristan was awake.

"You awake Trist?" I said knocking on his door

"Yeah. Rhi can you come in here please." He said

"Yeah what's up?" I said opening the door.

"Cut my arm." He said he was in the bathroom with a towel over his arm

"Let me have a look." I said he took the towel off his arm, it wasn't a deep cut but it was going to need a plaster over it.

"Come here muppet." I said pulling my mini first aid kit out of my backpack

"Sorry." He said

"Don't apologise, these things happen." I said

"Thanks Rhi." He said

"No problem." I smiled

"Come on the others are waiting for us." I said putting my first aid kit back in my bag.

"Okay coming." He said

When the 5 of us were ready we did a bit of exploring. We found a beautiful little pasty shop to have a cup of tea.

"That as nice." I said as we left.

"Yeah it was." Connor said taking hold of my hand

"Rhianne you there over?" Jake said in my ear

"Hey Jake. What's up? Over." I said

"You need to get to the arena now. People are starting to arrive and soon your not going to be able to get in. Over." Jake said

"Okay we'll make out way over now. Over." I said

"Thanks Rhi, over and out." Jake said

"We have to go to the venue, people are starting to arrive and soon we won't be able to make it in." I said to the boys.

"Disguise time?" James said

"Yep." I said with a smile

"What we going to be?" Brad said

I stood and thought for a couple of minutes then said "press coming to do an interview."

The boys looked at me in shock.

"What." I said smiling

"That's not a bad idea Rhi." Trist said

"Thanks." I smiled

"Come on then." They said

We went to a fancy dress shop took us a little while, my French was crap so the boys had to talk but even then it took us a little while to tell the guy what we wanted.

In the end we managed it and got what we needed and wanted.

Dressing up around the corner from the arena we headed toward the venue and no one suspected a thing. I had told Jake what we were doing and he was at the door to let us in. But first to make it look real we stopped to talk to some fans.

I have to admit it was the funniest 10 minutes of my life.

When we finally got into the arena the doors locked we took our disguise off and waved at the crowd.

"Nice job guys." James said

"Yeah not to bad." I said smiling

"Come on let's go get something to eat." Brad said

"Let's have something to eat then play with the t shirt gun.." I said

"Oh let's hide t shirts under chairs in the venue. We have enough of them." Trist said

"Tristan your a child at heart." I said smiling

"Yep." He said we all started to laugh.

When we had eaten we went into the arena and hid about 50 t shirts about the arena.

Then we went to the little balcony and fired t shirts down into the crowd it was a lot of fun.

"That was fun." James said when we got back into the arena half an hour later.

The show was amazing that night and so much fun.

"Okay everyone. Look under your seat." Trist said from his drums

Everyone looked under their seats.

"About 50 of you should find a t shirt under their." James said

"Present for you." Con said

"Hey what happened to the t shirt gun?" Brad said

"Back stage I think mate. Rhi had them last." Con said

"Cool I want another go." Brad said and he walked off the stage and went to get the t shirt gun. I was front of stage tonight. Stopping people people climbing over the barriers.

The show finished at just gone half 10 that night and the 5 of us climbed into bed and were asleep within minutes.

Over the next 2 weeks we moved from France to Germany to Switzerland to Spain. Boiling hot Spain. Being in Spain was a chance to go and see Kerri an old work colleague of mine. So while the boys were doing press all day before the show in Barcelona I went to see Kerri.

"Rhianne." She said opening the door

"Hey Kerri." I said giving her a hug

"How are you?" She asked letting me in

"Yeah not bad." I said

"How's married life?" Kerri asked

"Yeah it's good." I smiled

"Good to hear. Come through I'll get you a drink." Kerri said

"Where is everyone?" I asked

"Kids are at school and Brett is at work." Kerri said

"Nice." I smiled.

"How's tour going?" Kerri asked

"Yeah. It's a laugh. We all enjoy it. But I think the 5 of us are looking forward to a year off." I said smiling

"I bet." Kerri said

"Yeah 10 years non stop." I said

"Whoa. Is it really 10 years?" Kerri said

"Yeah." I smiled

"Time flies." Kerri said handing me a glass of lemonade

"Thanks. Yeah but the boys love their job." I smiled

"I bet they do." Kerri said

It was a lovely afternoon spent with Kerri but I had to get back to venue for the show.
