His fist collided with my stomach making it difficult to breathe. He hit me again and again until an excruciating pain shot through my body.

"I promise I didn't do anything, it was all him" I cried the pain was unbearable, I didn't do anything to deserve this. His fist hit me again and I fell back against the wall on my hallway. I could barely stand due to the pain shooting through me. He picked up the glass vase of flowers which was sitting on the table and smashed it against the wall.

He pushed it into my stomach and twisted it making me scream in pain. He didn't push it in far enough to cause any damage to my organs but the cuts were still deep and painful.

I looked down to see blood soaking my clothes as I crumpled to the floor. He pulled me up and pushed me onto my bed before slamming the door leaving my almost lifeless body alone.

I screamed and shot out of bed. 'It was only a dream' I thought to myself over and over again. I heard someone knock on my hotel room door but I couldn't bring myself to open it. The memories of the night Tyler had beaten me had come back to me. The knocking on the door was getting louder and louder as I curled into a ball and cried.

Suddenly the door crashed open and Tristan came running in searching the room for me. He saw me in the corner rocking back and forth and came over picking me up with ease. He placed me down on the hotel bed and lay down next to me.

"Please don't cry Smelly," he whispered wrapping his arm around me and pulling me closer.

"I'm sorry" I sniffed looking at him, he looked sad but I could see how much this was hurting him.

"Don't apologize, I hate the fact that he hurt you, it makes me upset to see my best friend upset" He wiped a tear away which had fallen down my cheek.

"Thank you Tristan" he had been there for me through everything since I arrived in Birmingham, even when he didn't know me.

"Elle, I've got something to tell you" he began. I nodded for him to carry on. "I've been speaking to Megan over the last week and I've decided to give her another chance. So yeah, we're together again."

"Tris are you sure this is what you want?" I asked him, knowing that it would hurt a lot more of she ever did it again.

"I love her Elle, I think she's the one" I could tell he meant it, I couldn't help but feel a little sad that he was going back to her.

"As long as your happy" I whispered.

"Thank you" he said getting up.

"No Tris, please stay?" I was terrified of being alone, after my dad had left I was too scared to move, it took me an hour to move from the door to the bed. Even after that I couldn't get to sleep.

"What will the boys say if they see me in here?" Tristan asked, obviously concerned.

"They'll think that you were being a good friend when I needed one." I replied, I didn't really care what the others thought, I couldn't face being alone.

"Okay, I'll stay" he said climbing back onto the bed with me, I felt so safe with him by my side. In a way, he was my security blanket.

**************************************************************

I woke up to find Tristan staring at me intently. He shifted his weight a little and sat up not taking his eyes off of me.

"What did you do to deserve this?" He asked curiously, he looked as though he was deep in thought.

"I have no idea, I'm just unlucky I suppose" I answered yawning and rubbing my eyes.

"We better get going, the guys will be wondering where we are!" Tristan said climbing out of bed and pulling me with him. He left to go and get changed and while he was gone I did the same. I applied a light layer of makeup to cover the bruise around my eye and the cut along my jaw. I winced as I touched it forgetting how much it hurt. I walked out of my hotel room and knocked on Tristans door, together we walked down to the lobby to meet everyone else.

"Morning guys" Brad grinned at us, I smiled back slightly.

"So guys, we'll talk to Fletch about our special guest and see what he thinks." Joe said getting up and leaving us alone.

"Who's this special guest?" I asked curiously. I saw James, Connor and Brad all look at each other smirking.

"It's a surprise!" James smirked.

"I hate you all" I glanced around, I turned to face Tristan, I gave him a questioning look but he held his hands up in defence.

"I know nothing about this but Connor is going to tell me everything right now." He said pulling Connor away from the breakfast table, I took his seat next to James.

"Joe took my phone instead of his, I'll be back in a bit Brad said getting up leaving me and James alone.

"I believe this is the first time we've been alone together" I stated.

"It actually is! That's really strange, I've known you for over a month." James replied.

"So are you going to tell me who the special guest is or do I have to find away of getting it out of Connor later?" I asked grinning at him.

"You'll have to wait and find out but I'm sure you'll love us afterwards" he grinned.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.

"Well at first you might be like 'what the hell were they thinking?' But then you might be like 'I'm so glad they did this'" he said doing a horrible impression of my voice, he left me even more confused than I was before.

"I sound nothing like that and you've really confused me." I said, I faked looking offended at his impression of me but he just laughed.

"It will all make sense tonight" James winked at me while pouring a glass of Orange juice. "Want some?" He said gesturing to the jug in his hands. I nodded as he poured a glass for me.

"You suck by the way" I muttered under my breath. I heard him chuckle before Tristan and Connor joined us at the table.

"What have you been talking about kids?" Connor asked.

"The same thing as you two" I replied glaring at both of them.

"Even if you aren't too sure at first I'm sure you'll love it in the end" Connor grinned.

"You're just as confusing as James" I groaned. I looked at them all giving cheeky grins to each other and shook my head.

"Where's Brad?" Tris asked.

"Joe took his phone by accident so he went to find him." I replied. "Are you ready to go?" I asked looking at everyone's empty plates.

"Yep let's go" James said getting up to leave. The rest of us followed him up to our hotel rooms to collect our belongings before checking out and heading to the next venue. All I could think about was who the special guest could possibly be.

A/N OMG I HAVE OVER 1000 READS! Thank you so so so so much! I'll try and update every Saturday/Sunday.

So I've decided that James' girl is going to be SARASOUNDS! Thank you so much to anyone who applied and I'm sorry if you didn't get it but I might do something a little later in the story.

Comment letting me know what you think and thank you for everything so far! Love you all!<3
