*SAM'S P.O.V.*

The afternoon rolled around by the time we arrived in Vegas. The guys got changed into what they would wear for the night and helped unpack their equipment. I sat down at the merch booth and made sure everything was organized. From here, I could see the long line leading to the venue.

"Hey how's it going?" Vic smiled and sat down on my lap.

"Just wonderful! I enjoy sitting here like a loner." I laughed.

"We got you some help actually." Vic looked behind me as a taller blonde girl walked over.

"Sam this is Brittney. Brittney, Sam." Vic looked like he expected us to shake hands.

"Hello." Brittney smiled shyly.

"Hello." I gave her a confident grin.

"Well I'll leave you two alone to have a meet and great. I'm gonna go warm up!" Vic kissed me quick before nearly running away.

I asked Brittney if she knew what she was doing. She answered of course but I showed her the ropes anyway. By the time I was done, people started lining up for merch. When it all died down, my phone rang.

"Excuse me. I'll be back." I smiled at Britt who seemed to understand.

"Val!" I smiled.

"Hey love..." Val sounded unsure.

"Hey are you okay?" My voice became worried.

"Yeah I'm fine... Um, don't get scared okay? Promise me."

A tear ran down my cheek. "Val what's wrong?" My voice cracked at the end of 'wrong'.

"You know I love you... And, I'll always be here for you. But right now... I need you to be here for me."

"Of course! Val I'm always here for you! Just tell me what you need!" My heart beat sped up.

"When I told you I couldn't come to the concert... I couldn't. Jay... He... Well I got pregnant and... He... The baby miscarriaged...." I could hear her crying softly. I knew why.

Jay was known for being absuive. I, along with everyone else, told her to leave. But she never would. For some unexplainable reason she was madly in love with him. And every night he always proved why she shouldn't be. Make up, all over her body. Fake smile plastered on. This how Val went about life. Broken. Like I used to be. My tears automatically turned to anger.

"Valerie! You need to fucking leave Jay! He's hurt you and now he's killed your baby!" I heard her sobs become louder. I couldn't take it.

"Val. I'm coming back. See you in a few days. Stay at your sisters house until I arrive. I'll give Jay a piece of his own medicine."

I hung up and thought about how weak I was. What would I do? I couldn't fight him. And how was I going to leave tour? I couldn't leave Vic. I couldn't leave any of these guys. And they couldn't come with.

I slumped down to the ground next to the booth. After awhile I went back and decided to consider my options.

I need to be there for Val... But I also need to be here for Pierce The Veil. I thought as my face got stern and I lost myself in concentration.
