15 and Famous- One Direction fanfic

Chapter 14

The next morning I stumbled over to the mirror and looked at myself. I was a mess. My hair was sticking out in all different directions, there was dried drool on my chin, and my eyes were red and swollen from crying so much. I tried to take a deep breath through my nose but I was all stuffed up. I turned the shower on high and let the steam fill the room. When I got out of the shower my nose was less stuffy but my eyes were still really puffy. I walked back to my room and put on a pair of black sweat pants, my baby blue zip up hoodie, a white tank top, and my boots. I decided to skip makeup knowing I would just spend most of the time trying to get the swelling to go down. I grabbed my bag and headed towards the stadium. As I was walking past the boys bus the door opened. All of them came walking out looking tiered.

"Whoah Alice are you alright?" Liam asked.

"Not feeling really well today. I had a tuff night." I said trying not to cry at the thought of Jacob.

"Oh yeah Niall told us. That guy doesn't deserve a cool girl like you." Zayn said throwing his arm around me.

"Thanks. I think after my set I'm just gonna come back to my bus. I have homework and stuff to do." I said. the truth was I could feel the awkward between Niall and I.

"Oh ok. Is your nose stuffed up your voice sound funny." Louis said.

"Yeah happens after I cry. Same thing with the puffy eyes." I said as we finally made it to the stadium's back door.

"Lou might know something to help that go away." Harry said.

"Thanks guys." I said trying to give them a smile. When I looked at Niall he looked like he wanted to say something but I just shook my head no. I walked away from them to my dressing room to start my daily routine. I made my tea, laid out all my makeup for Lou, pulled my dress out of the bag on the rack, and took my boots out. I poured my tea into a mug and was about to walk to the stage when someone stopped me. I looked up and saw Niall.

"We need to talk." He said pulling me back into my room.

"Listen I'm sorry about last night. I shouldn't have kissed you." He said.

"Niall listen that kiss never happened. Ok? It never happened. Don't tell anyone about it. I just want you to be my friend." I said looking down at my mug.

"Ok Alice." Was all he said before walking away. I felt terrible but I needed to act like I was ok. I couldn't let any of this crap effect my performance.

Niall's P.O.V

That stung. She didn't want me to say anything to anyone about the kiss. I thought I felt sparks when I kissed her. Last night had been great. Even though it started out bad it had gotten better till the end. Durning the movie she had laid on top of me and snuggled with me and it all just felt right. Like she was suppose to be with me and not that slime ball Jacob. How could he cheat on her the whole time they were dating, and then not call her on her birthday. When I walked back to my dressing room all the boys were looking at me.

"What's wrong mate?" Harry asked.

"Nothing. Just really tiered. I didn't sleep very well last night." I said.

"Sorry to hear that. Here maybe soda can wake you up." He said handing me the bottle of coke in his hand. I put on a smile and after like I wasn't hurting inside. This can't effect my performance.

Liam's P.O.V

Something's wrong between Alice and Niall. I could tell the minute we walked in last night and Niall was watching a chick flick alone. Then this morning you could feel the awkward in the air. I wanted to ask them what was wrong but I know they'll tell us when the time comes. Right now Alice is in hair and makeup trying to get the puffiness of her eyes to go away and we are practicing. It sucked that she wanted to go back to the busses as soon as she was done. But I guess she really just wanted to be alone. When we stepped off the stage I went to go find her. Alice was in her dressing room laying upside down on the couch reading Romeo and Juliet.

"Oh Alice where for art thow!" I said as I walked into the room. I watched as a smile spread across her face. Her eyes weren't puffy anymore and she didn't sound so stuffy.

"Hey Liam!" She said sitting up.

"How you feeling?" I asked.

"A little better thanks." She said giving me a small smile.

"That's good. So did something happen between you and Niall last night?" I asked.

"Nope we just watched a movie and then I got really tiered before it ended and went back to sleep." She said.

"Ok just wondering. Well I should let you get ready." I said standing up.

"Wait can you help with my dress?" Alice asked standing up.

"Yeah I guess." I said turing around so she could undress and slip the dress on herself.

"Ok you can look now." Alice said. I turned around and saw her small fame standing there. She had become one of my best friends since she had joined us on tour. Once I zipped her dress up we talked a little bit until Lou came to do her make up.

"Break a leg Alice!" I called before leaving.

"Will too Liam!" She yelled back.

Alice's P.O.V

"You guys have been an amazing crowd tonight!" I yelled before running off stage. I felt my shoulder slump as I walked back to my dressing room to changed. I had tripped about a billion times on stage, and almost forgot the words to one song. Tonight had been my worst night of the tour. After I changed I gave Lou all of my things so she could pack them. We had a full day of driving ahead of us tomorrow to Minnesota.

"You ok sweetie?" She asked.

"Not really. I found out my boyfriend was cheating on my last night." I said.

"Oh gosh I'm so sorry." Lou said pulling me in for a hug.

"Yeah. I'm gonna go back to my bus. See you later." I said waving goodbye as I walked out of the stadium.

Once I was in my bus I out on a pair of flannel pajama pants and a big t shirt. Harry had finally told me the log in for Netflix so I had an unlimited amount of movies to watch. As I scrolled through the musicals I came across RENT. I got up and made a cup of easy Mac and cheese and grabbed the bag if Doritos off the top of the fridge and sat down on the couch. As I watched the movie I forgot how many of the songs I knew. I found myself singing along to every song. I also forgot how sad it got in some parts. I sat there crying as I watched too. RENT was one of the best musicals I had ever seen. I was half way through when my phone started to ring it was Jacob. I answered it and told myself to break up with him.

"Hey Alice sorry I didn't call last night I got busy." He said.

"I know I got a front row seat to what or should I say who you got busy with." I spat at him pausing the movie.

"What are you talking about babe?" Jacob asked sounding concerned.

"I know about Stacy and how you've been cheating on me since we started dating! You are such a dick Jacob!" I yelled trying not to cry.

"I'm sorry Alice." Was all he said.

"I hope you and that whore are happy together. Don't you ever call me or text me again. Don't even think about me. We are done Jacob. Thanks for ruining my birthday too!" I yelled as I hung up the phone. The room was filled with silence. I hit play on the movie and immediately started to sob. I was alone.
