I wake up in a dimly lit room, I'm confused for a second but I soon realize that I'm on the couch on the falling in reverse bus. My head is pounding and I feel weak.

Looking around I see many people including Austin and Ronnie so I slowly begin to sit up. "Take it easy." A voice says followed by a hand on my wrist. My heart stops and I feel tears threaten to spill.

"You have 5 seconds to get your hand off of me or you won't have one." I whisper coldly. Ashley pulls his hand away but still keeps his eyes on me. " Amethyst I'm so sorry i-" I put my hand up to stop him.

"I don't want to talk about this. In fact, I don't want to talk at all." I say standing. My head spins even more. Austin takes a quick step towards me. He places an arm around my waist.

I stand up on my tip toes and Austin kind of bends down. "I want to go outside." He nods and says something to Alan before opening the door for me. "Where are you guys going?" I stop and turn Ashley .

"Out into the world, full of mystical creatures that aren't you." Austin smiles and the guys fight back laughter. I step off the bus and Austin shuts the door. "You know, you'll have to talk to him sometime."

I nod. "Yup. But I just needed air." He smiles and we walk around the venue. I stop. "What happened?" He sighs and sits down. I do the same. "Well, fans were being..fans and you had some kind of panic attack or something." I pick at the grass and nod.

"Then you burst into tears backstage and fell. I caught you but you kept says 'help me' and 'please stop' and then you passed out for a few hours. I watched you while Ronnie did his show and then Ashley showed up and said fans had tweeted him or something...."

He says trailing off as his eyes follow a butterfly. I smile and laugh. He laughs too and looks at me. "You're pretty fucking strong you know that." He says. I look at him and nod. "I guess. He gets up and wipes the grass from his jeans.

He reaches a hand out and I take it doing the same. "I play in about 2 hours and I think you," he say playfully poking my side. I laugh. "Should get something to eat." He smiles. "Yeah sure." I say. "But I need to change and get my phone."

His mouth do an 'o' and he pulls my phone out his back pocket. I furrow my brows and take it. I turn it on and almost burst into a fit of laughter. My lock screen has been changed to a close up picture of Austin making the weirdest face ever.

He smiles triumphantly. "Wait," I say smiling. We begin to walk to the bus. "How did you get my password?" He nervously scratches the back of his neck. "I mean, you were out for 3 1/2 hours soooo..." I laugh as we reach the bus. He looks at me as if asking for permission to open the door.

I smile and nod. He opens the door and I step in. All eyes go to Austin and I. He quietly shuts the door. Ronnie clears his throat. I smile nervously and look around. I see someone stand up and walk over to me. I gasp. "Holy shit."

I whisper as Vic walks up to me. He laughs. "I guess you know me already.." I nod. "Ive been listening to you guys for years." He smiles. "Well, I have to go but I hope we can meet later. Maybe the rest of the guys will come to." He says and winks.

I feel Austin stiffen behind me and Ashley shifts in his chair. I blush and giggle a bit. He walks out the door. And I turn back to Austin. "I'm gonna change real quick." He nods and leans against the counter. I head to the back of the bus and grab my bag.

I pull out my red FOB tank, black, ripped, skinnies and a black and white flannel. I grab a bracelet and throw on my white converse and a rose necklace. I head to the bathroom and check my makeup. Good enough. Grabbing $30, I head back out to the front of the bus. I stop when I hear Ashley talking.
