Sarah's POV-
I have no clue what to say. Just stare at Aaliyah and she does the same to me.
"Uh, maybe not the whole tour. Just as long as you want." Kian says trying to persuade us but I already know my answer.
"Yea I would love to!" I say, wrapping my arms around Kian's neck and him hugging me back.
"Sarah, I don't know if we can." Aaliyah says with a sad look on her face. I walk up to her and hold both her hands.
"Aaliyah, I can't go without you!" I say trying to convince her.
"I mean, I guess," she says shrugging her shoulders, "but I have to call my parents and talk to them first."
"Yea of course, I do too." I say grabbing my phone.
"Yea we'll let you guys go do that and we'll be in the other room." Jc says backing out of the room. The other guys follow him into the other room and Aaliyah sits down on her bed.
"Sarah, are you sure you want to? I mean who knows how long we'll be gone? It could be weeks!" she says with a worried look.
"Aaliyah, calm down. It's not forever, and I can't pass this up- WE can't pass this up!" I pause and she looks down at her phone. "I really don't want to go without you, Aaliyah, and I'm sorry... but I will." She looks up at me with a surprised look on her face.
"So you're just going to leave me here, in Florida by myself!?" she says and I can tell she's starting to get mad.
"That's not what I meant... but I'm tired of doing what other people want. I want this. I want him! I've wanted him for so long and I'm not letting you or anyone else take this away from me!" I storm out the room before I end up saying something I'll regret.
"Wait Sar-" She starts to talk but I just keep walking. I swing the door to the guys' room open as they look at me, waiting for an answer, but I don't give them one. I grab Kian's hand and drag him out the room and into the elevator.
"Where are we going? What's wrong?" He asks grabbing my hand.
"I'm hungry!" I say fake smiling. "I haven't had breakfast or lunch yet." I say acting like there's nothing wrong.
"No, Sarah tell me what's wrong." He says.
"It's nothing really, just.." I don't want to bother him with my problems and shit but I have no one else to talk to. All of a sudden my phone rings. I hold it up and look at the screen and so does Kian.
"Who's Matt?" He asks, still looking down at my phone.
"Uh, no one!" I say, declining Matt's call.
"Sarah, you need to talk to me. Who was that?"
"He's just a friend... but he wants to be more than friends, and we were more than that at one point but not any more."
"Okay, well what happened with you and Aaliyah back there?"
"She doesn't know if she wants to go, but I do and that's that. I'm coming with you." I say holding his hand. He smiles and squeezes me in a hug.
"So, where should we go to celebrate?" He says as the elevator opens to the first floor.
"I don't kn- Shit." I just remembered I don't even have clothes to wear.
"What?" Kian says with a confused look on his face. I start to laugh a little bit.
"I only brought one outfit with me." I say, realizing that I'm still wearing the clothes that I slept in.
"Well, looks like we will just have to go shopping then." Kian says leading me out the elevator. I smile and fix my hair into a messy bun, and tie my shirt at the bottom with a pony tail holder so you can actually see my shorts. He gets an Uber for us to take us to the closest mall. First, we go to Forever 21 and have a mini fashion show and Kian tells me the outfits he likes, which is most of them. When we get in line to check out and takes out his credit card.
"Kian, there's no way I can let you do that! You've spent way too much money on me already!" I say pushing his hand with the card in it away.
"Come on! My treat." He says with the cutest smile on his face.
"Kian! Ugh I can't say no to that face!" I pause, "but I have to! I feel bad letting you pay for everything."
"Okay, how about you buy us lunch in the food court and I'll treat for your shopping. It is my fault, I mean how were you supposed to know you would be joining us on tour!?" He says.
"Ugh you're never going to give this up are you?"
"Nope."
"Fine, I'll buy lunch." I say rolling my eyes and smiling. We come out of Forever 21 with two bags and Kian asks where I want to go next. The store closest is Aeropostale, so we go there and come out with one cute crop top and a few comfortable sleep shorts, sweatpants, and tank tops. When we walk out, we pass Victoria's Secret and Kian stops, points to the store and smiles.
"Are you sure?" I say with a slight laugh. I wasn't sure if it'd be awkward to go in with him.
"Yea, I mean are you going to wear the same underwear and bra the whole tour?" He says laughing. I roll my eyes with a smile and follow him into the store. He picks out some underwear and some bras that he thinks are sexy and I go along with it. Only a few people have recognized Kian and took pictures with him so far and some of them even wanted a picture with me. Next, we go to the main part of the mall, which is the food court. This is when it starts to get crazy. There were crowds of people surrounding us trying to get pictures. We eventually ran out the mall, with them still following us. We hopped in an Uber and drove away to a hamburger and wing restaurant.
"That was crazy back there!" I say looking through the Instagram pictures from the mall that fans have tagged me in. "I guess I'd better get used to it?" I say jokingly.
"Yea-" Kian starts to talk but his phone starts ringing and he answers it. After a few minutes he hangs up the phone.
"That was Jc. He says we need to hurry up because the tour bus is supposed to leave in an hour."
"Okay, we'll just get it to go?"
"Yea."
"Did he say anything about Aaliyah?" I honestly don't know if she is coming or not, but I hope she is.
"Yea... She's going home tomorrow." He says with a sad look on his face.
"Oh" I don't say anything else. He grabs my hand.
"Hey, are you okay?"
"Yea I'm fine, I just.. I thought she would come with us."
"I'm sorry." He says kissing me on the forehead. I smile and put my head on his shoulder. When we get back to the hotel, Aaliyah is no where to be found. We quickly eat our food and pack before I realize that I have 23 iMessage notifications. It's my parents asking where I am, when I'll be home, and who I'm with. I call my mom and tell her what's going on. She obviously isn't happy that I'm going with them.
"You can't go, Sarah! How long? Where are ya'll going?" She rambles on different questions but when she's done I tell her everything and that nothing will change my mind about going with them. She soon realizes that nothing she says will change anything and she actually seems pretty okay with it. When I get off the phone with her, I finish packing and head down to the tour bus. Most of the guys are already down there putting they're bags on their beds. They show me mine which is right across from Kian's and right under Harrison's. So I put my stuff down and talk to the other guys until everyone gets on. I start to think about Aaliyah. Where was she? Her bags were still in the hotel. Why didn't she come with us.. or at least tell me goodbye? I look at my phone and think about calling her but I decide against it and before I know it the bus drives away.
