Everyone went up to their rooms. Leanne took her time. Before she turned into the hallway, I stopped her.

"Hey mind if I ask you some questions?" I said. She turned and nodded. I scooted over and patted the seat next to me, turning on my laptop, quickly opening the company's database and opening the cameras. I set down the laptop and closed it half way.  Leanne sat down facing me.

"Okay, how did you find the note?" I asked.

"While I was getting ready. I just finished eating and was drying my hair. I was blasting the boys' new song, Jet Black Heart." She said, her voice cracked at the end.

"Take all the time you need." I said. She smiled a small smile. I knew it was fake.

"I heard a knock on the door. So I went to go see who it was. When I opened the door no one was there. I just figured it was teenagers playing ding dong ditch. So I shut the door, locked it and went back to the bathroom.  Thats when I found the note. On the mirror in black lip stick was a heart. Like the song. And inside the heart was the note." She said. Silent tears rolled down her face. " I freaked out and drove over here." I nodded.

"Okay, thank you. You did the right thing by coming straight over here and sharing all of that." I softly spoke. "Now I want you to go crawl in with your boyfriend, who will help protect you, and gets some sleep." She nodded, stood up and started to walk to Michael's-well now I guess its her room too- room. Leanne stopped before turning.

"Thank you for not being mean and listening."

"No problem, that's another thing I am here for." She turned the corner and walked. It was silent for a bit. I opened the laptop and was about to unlock it, when I heard her voice.

"Calum?" My eyebrows scrunched together. I stood up and walked into the hallway. There was a sniffle. I turned on my phone flash light. Calum stood in the hall.

"Calum? Whats up?" I asked, taking his wrist and lightly pulling him into the lounge. I sat down, sitting him down with me.  He wiped his eyes.

"I'm scared." He whispered. I sighed and pulled him into a hug.

"Its okay to be scared." I said, rubbing his back trying to comfort him. Trying is a keyword.

"I had a nightmare about someone breaking in and killing all of us." Calum said before breaking into tears again.

"Shh, Its okay. We're all safe." I said calming him down before pulling away.

"I know you are a really good agent and can protect us, it just...just...its hard to explain."

"Cant put your life in someones hands. Especially someone you just met."
He nodded.

"I know. Just can your try to sleep?" He shook his head. I sighed.

"How about you sleep on the couch? Would that help? Knowing someone is near and watching out?" I asked. He nodded and went to go get his blanket and pillow. While he did that I unlocked my computer and checked the cameras. Every one is asleep. Calum came back and layed on the couch. Soon he was fast asleep. First night went by in the blink of an eye.

----morning---

At 6 I stood up and went to take a shower. I woke everyone up around 7. They all got up and went to take showers. Leanne used my bathroom. While they got ready, I made breakfast. Their interview was at 9:30. For breakfast I made eggs, toast, hash-browns, bacon and pancakes. As i placed the last plate of pancakes on the table, the boys came running in. Leanne close behind. They began devouring the food. I am glad I had already made my plate. After they finished, they went to brush their teeth while I ate. By the time they were done it was 9. We sped off to the interview. Because I didn't have time to brush my teeth. I stuck two pieces of gum in my mouth. My breath stunk of food and coffee. Leanne and I sat back stage during the interview.

"Will there be uh breaks?" Michael asked.

"No...everything okay?"

"Yeah i just gotta piss" Everyone laughed.

"Go right ahead" Michael nodded, saying thank you before running past us to the bathroom. 5 minutes later, he still hadn't returned. Leanne looked worried. She turned to me.

"Do you got a knife? I'm going to check on Michael." I shook my head.

"I'm not letting you go. Ill do it."

"Dont worry I took self defense and im a black belt."  I sighed and handed over my  knife.

Before I let go I said "be careful." She nodded and ran off. I turned back to the boys. They all looked worried.
"Thats all we have time for folks! Lets give a round of applause to 5 Seconds of Summer!" They stood up and bowed, before running off stage to me.
"Wheres Michael?"

Leanne POV
I ran out of the room and to the men's bathroom.

"MICHAEL!" I screamed.

"LEA--" A voice screamed before getting cut off by another voice yelling shut up. Then a scream echoed through the halls. I immediately recognized the voice. I ran to where it was coming from. A lights closet. I kicked down the door.  In the middle of the room, Michael was laying on the floor holding his stomach. The person that was causing him pain turned around.

"Well well looky here. Its your little girlfriend. Coming to save the day." The person spoke, before walking over to me. He went to kiss me, before he could I smacked him across the face.  Michael gasped. The man turned back and glared at me before punching me. I stumbled back. He went to punch me in the stomach but I blocked him and sucker punched him. Michael slowly stood up. I looked over to him. Bad mistake. The man punched me and kicked my legs out from under me.

"MICHAEL! RUN! GO GET JOHANNA!" I screamed while standing up. Michael ran- well limped- out of the room. The person ran at me. I jumped, kicking him the chest while doing  back flip. He stumbled before falling flat on his ass. Johanna and the others ran in. Security following. They arrested him. I ran straight to Mikey. We hugged for a while. A throat was cleared. We pulled a part. Johanna walked up to us.

"I'm sorry i wasn't there to protect you Michael." She said sounding really sincere. He smiled and hugged her. She looked shocked but hugged back. When they pulled away she looked at me.

"Nice fighting skills!" She said.

I smiled. "Thanks!"

"If you ever want to learn more, I can teach you." I nodded. Michael wrapped his arm around my waist.

"Well lets get home and clean you two up." Ashton said.
