A/N: There is a little bit of a time shift in this - It will jump a month but there will be short scenes that briefly go through the events of the month (I hope this makes sense) I'll make it clear when the time shift starts :)  *SMUT WARNING :P* Thanks for reading! 

"We've been through this Michael." Ashton pleaded. "We need you. We aren't 5 Seconds Of Summer without you." 

"My daughter is screaming for me. I can't do this." Michael pleaded.

"I know, but she'll be okay. She's got a badass mum, an auntie that is likely to kill anyone that even looks at her the wrong way-"

"I can vouch for that." Calum interrupted.

"and Olivia has her grandparents too. Yes you will all miss eachother, but won't it be worth it when you can provide even more for her. With the money from this tour, you'll be able to move house. I know that's what you wanted. You wanted a bigger house for her, so that you can give her 'a music room for each instrument' I believe were your exact words." Ashton continued.

Michael smiled a little at Ashton's words. He knew that Ash was right, he just didn't expect to feel as bad as he did. 

"Are you ready then? If we don't get on this plane soon, Johns going to kill us." Ashton laughed. 

"Okay, okay!" Michael replied. 

They boarded the plane and were handed a bottle of Stella Artois as they took their seats. 

"For Olivia." Ashton toasted. 

"For Olivia." The other three boys and a few of the crew cheered in unison.

"Thanks lads." Michael smiled.

They arrived in the first location with plenty of time before they needed to be sound checking so Michael decided check in at home. He called Ivy's number and she answered pretty much straight away. 

"Hi, how are you and Olivia?" He blurted out before even giving Ivy a chance to speak. 

"We're okay, Nova's staying with us for a bit, we've just ordered chinese. Hows things your end?"

"We've just gotten to the venue, we're just killing time until sound check. It's crazy how many fans are already here waiting. The doors don't even for another 7 hours. I think they are all crazy."

"Crazy dedicated." Ivy laughed. 

John came through to the part of the arena Michael had hidden away in, and told him that they needed him in the dressing room in 5 minutes, they had to double check the set list and go through some technical parts. He gave him a nod and went back to talking to Ivy.

"I miss you both so much already." Michael almost whimpered. 

"I know, we miss you too. Olivia didn't want to go to sleep at all, took her an hour to fall asleep.  I played every song of yours that she likes. I really should have recorded your voice for her, the albums just aren't the same." Ivy sighed.

"I'll see if I can record some and send them over okay?" He promised.

"Okay thank you. I just hope it works. This was only night one and she already misses you like crazy. Its like she knows your gone for a while this time. She's usually fine when you are just at band practice or away for a TV interview." 

"I know." He replied sadly. "I've got to go Ivy, John wants me for a band meeting."

"Okay, hopefully speak soon. We love you and miss you." She told him.
