Brendan's POV.

Next morning.

The next morning we woke up at 5:30 due to our alarms going off. Dayl took a little longer to wake, but he finally did after Josh and Cian pushed him out of the bed. After Josh, Dayl and Cian had gotten showered and dressed, i went into the shower to get ready. Dean and Ryan were using the other two showers, so we were all able to get ready fairly quickly.

After my shower, i walked downstairs and was greeted by a delicious smell of pancakes. I started walking to the kitchen, i saw Cian and Josh serving up Pancakes onto seven plates.

"Hey, Guys. Something smells nice." I said, sitting down at the table.

"Hey, Bren. Yea, seeing as we are all up on time for once, Josh and I decided to cook up some pancakes. Dayl just went to get officer Reynolds." Cian Said, as he and Josh sat down opposite me.

As we heard Dean and Ryan walk down the stairs, we also heard the front door open, allowing Dayl and Officer Reynolds into the house.

"Ohh pancakes," Dean exclaimed, sliding into a seat next to me.

Officer Reynolds and Dayl walked into the kitchen. We all said hello to Officer Reynolds and tucked into the pancakes. They were delicious! Cian and Josh are amazing at cooking. I'm terrible at it. I can't even boil an egg!

After we had finished I helped Dean clean up, while the others gathered our stuff and started loading up the van with all of it. Dean kept trying to splash me with the soap suds while i tried to dodge his attempts. Pretty sure we made quite a mess. While we cleaning up the mess we had made, Officer Reynolds walked into the kitchen.

"Hey Dean, can I talk to Bren quickly? The others are waiting in the car."

Dean nodded, throwing his tea towel into the washbowl. Officer Reynolds walked up to me, grabbing a cloth and started helping me clean up.

"Dayl told me you started crying after our call last night." He said after we had finished cleaning.

I put down my cloth and turned to look at him. "It was nothing just something stupid," I mumbled, looking down at the floor.

"Brendan, it's not stupid. Look, remember when we first met, okay. I said i would help you through it all even when I'm old and frail i will be here to protect you. I see you as my son, okay. Now stop being stupid and thinking the only reason I'm doing this is because it's my job. I would rather be here, protecting you and the other lads. Okay." He said.

I gave him a hug, trying to stop the tears.

"Come on, we best get going or we will be late for your guys' interview." He said as we started to walk towards the door. I grabbed my phone from the table and started walking to the van.

Dayl Cian and Josh were at the back while Ryan and Dean were sitting behind the front seats with a space in the middle.

"Brendan your in the middle as you are the smallest out of us three," Ryan informed me.

I groaned playfully while sitting in the middle and putting my seat belt on. Officer Reynolds was sat up front with the driver.

"Wait did you guys put my guitar in?" I asked, remembering that i would be the one playing for our song this interview.

"Yea Josh went to get it," Dean said. I smiled and put my headphones in and started to play my music. After a while, i started to fall asleep, i was woken up by my phone vibrating indicating i had been tagged in a post on twitter. I opened my Phone and logged on to twitter. I clicked on my notifications and saw that dean had tagged me in a photo he had posted. Clicking on the photo, i saw it was a picture of me asleep on his shoulder. Turning to glare at him, i saw he was looking over my shoulder to see what i was doing.

"I hate you," I said, making him chuckle.

"No, you don't. You love me." He said smiling widely.

I just glared at him playfully before going back on my phone.

Dean kept poking me until I turned to him.

"What?" I asked, turning to look at him.

"Smile!" He said, taking a picture of me on his phone.

"Ugh really!" I said groaning.

Dean just smiled, posting the picture on twitter.

"I hate you," I said for the second time that day.

He just smiled, before going back to his phone and texting.

We pulled up to the place we were getting interviewed. Ryan and Dean got out first with me following, The other three getting out as soon as we had. Before i could begin to walk i got picked up by Ryan and placed on Dean's back. I heard Dayl, Cian and Josh laughing in the background and saw Ryan filming it.

"Dean! Put me down!" I said hitting his back.

"Nope!" He said, starting to run around.

The other Lads started laughing, so I just hid my head, waiting for Dean to put me down.

"Okay, Children. Calm down." Officer Reynolds said, shaking his head.

Dean put me down, and we all started walking to the door. While we were walking I hit Dean on the arm.

"I hate you," I Said.

"I know."
