Chapter 10.3

'Where were you guys? It's almost 2am' Luke asks as we walk into the bus

'Uh, Ash was teaching me to play the drums' I laugh awkwardly as I walk into my room

'Oh yeah, so what's that on your neck?' Calum smirks

'Oh it's nothing'

'Then why is yours and Ashtons hair scruffy and why are you walking funny?' Luke interferes

'OMG FASHTON FINALLY FUCKED' Cal screams

'Fuck off' Ash scoffs

'Ha fuck' Michael giggles

These boys are so immature for fucks sake

'Guys go to sleep. It's almost 2am' i say yawning

'Okay. Night Freya' They all say as they hug me

I wait for them to climb into their bunks and hear faint snores before I go into my room and sit on my bed planning how to sneak out.

*

It was currently 4.27am and everyone was heavily asleep.

I throw a shoe to make sure no one woke up. Which no one did. This was my queue.

I decided to write a note to them all so they could understand why I left.

'Dear Luke, Calum, Ashton and Michael.

You might of noticed i've gone. Don't panic, i'm fine. I decided that I had gotta get out (see what I did there) of tour life.

There had been a lot of negativity brought onto me and I just wanted to discard it all. I have literally LOVED spending time with you all so much. You guys are my best friends. So thank you. When I get back home, I'm going to college and I'm gonna be busy with exams but I would love to spend time with you all. Thank you for keeping me on my feet. Good luck on the rest of the tour.

I love you all, Freya xxx'

I get up and place the note on the bedside table as I make my bed.

After i've fluffed the pillows and pulled the sheet up, I place the note in the middle of the bed.

I grab my handbag and sling it over my shoulder.

I carefully walk down the passage way making sure I don't make a noise.

As I reach the door, I type in the passcode and watch it open

I step out and watch as the door closes.

I take a look to see if anyone was there, to which no one was and I walk at a fast pace to my car.

As I could see it getting closer, I could hear footsteps behind me.

I didn't turn round, I just made my pace faster.

As I approached my car, I heard my name being called

I snap round to see him again.

'Michael, what the hell' I say

'Where are you going and who's car is this' He points towards my car

'I'm leaving. I've had enough so I'm driving home in my car'

'I'm coming'

'No you are not' I argue

'Yes I am. The boys can do without me. I've wanted to leave so many times' He protests against me

'Michael, you're in a fucking band thats supporting one direction. You have to stay!! I wasn't even meant to come but I wormed my way in so now I'm worming my way out! Just leave' I unlock my car and open the passenger door and place my bag on the seat

'No. I am coming. I will just call Harry now an-' I take his phone and put it in my bra 'As much as I love boobs, I'm not putting my hand down your top' He smirks

'I hate to say this because you're the reason that i'm leaving. But if it helps keep my cover, then fine. Go get clothes and lets go'

I sigh

The manipulative bitch

I watch him as he runs back to the bus

I suddenly remember that i didn't leave a note for my brother.

I take out a notepad and pen from my bag and write note for them

'Haz, Louis, Zayn, Niall, Liam.

I hate to tell you this but by the time you would have woken up, I'll be out of this country. I'm sorry but I had to leave. There were so many things that were making it negative for me and I couldn't cope anymore. I'm so sorry. I'm not alone though. Michael is joining me. Yes. Michael. The one who I was trying to get away from. He was going to wake you if I didn't let him go with me. I'm sorry. I'll be safe. I love you all so much. I will see you all when you're all back in England. Good luck for the rest of the tour.

I love you all, Freya xxxx'

I lock my car and run to their bus.

I crouch down as I get to the door.

I put the sheet through the tiny crack in the door and watch the float to the ground

I suddenly hear someone talk

I quickly jump up and run as fast as I can

*Michael's Pov*

I run as fast as my longish legs would take me back to the bus.

I had also wanted to do a road trip.

I'm finally doing one! But i'm also abandoning my best friends and a one time opportunity.

Well, my wellbeing is more important then my career.

I type in the passcode and watch the door open.

I carefully creep inside. My bunk was the closet to the door so I didn't have far to walk.

I grab my duffle bags and unzip them as quietly as I could.

I grab handfuls of my clothes and shove them in.

I take the rest of my possessions and put them in the last bag.

i zip them up and place them by the door.

I walk into freya's room and look the note.

I add on

'Hi guys, i've gone with her too. I'm sorry for letting you down. Call me when u see this, Mikey x' before walking out the door with my bags.

As I close the door, I see Freya running to the car.

I throw her a weird look and she mouth run, so I do.

I fasten my pace and run next to her.

She grabs one of bags as she can see i'm struggling and next thing I know, i'm on the floor

I stumble up and follow after her.

I'm so happy I grew a pair and left.

*freya pov*

I spot Michael on the way back

'Run!' I mouth to him as he quickens his pace

I make my way closer to him and grab one of his bags off him, I think I pulled it a bit too hard because he suddenly fell.

'I'm sorry' I pant as we make it the car.

I pull open the boot and shove everything in there.

I walk round to the drivers side and open the door and slide in.

'Why did we have to run?' He asks as he climbs in

'I was putting a letter through a gap in my brothers bus and someone said something'

I put the key in the ignition and switch it on

'You ready?' I ask

'Never been so sure' He smiles

I grab his hand and intertwine it with mine

'LETS GO!!' I shout as I press down the accelerator.

This is finally happening!!
