It's been about a month now since Zayn's tour started. I had started to get used to the constant camera flashes and questions that were thrown my way. People finally stopped saying we were dating and acknowledged that we were cousins. The only thing I wasn't used to was not having anyone besides Zayn to actually talk to. Yeah there were other people on tour with him I could associate with but I wanted my actual friends. More than anything I wanted to hear from Niall again but ever since I left we haven't talked so now I'm trying not to think about him all that much.

Right now though I was getting dressed for some event that Zayn had to attend. He had asked if I wanted to come along and since I had nothing else to do I was going to go. Zayn's bought me a bunch of fancy outfits for things like this so I didn't have to worry about what to wear thankfully. Tonight I was wearing a slick black dress with a brown jacket type thing to go with it.

"Ri are you ready yet?" Zayn calls out to me.

"Yeah give me a moment!" I respond as I finish straightening the last strand of my hair. I look myself over in the mirror one last time before walking out of my room grabbing my shoes along the way. Zayn had found a nice hotel for us to stay in this time. He had said it would be a good change from sleeping on the bus constantly.

"Come on we need to get there a bit early." he says when I walk out to him slipping on his coat.

I roll my eyes at him playfully as I put my shoes on. "You always want to get somewhere early Z." I say to him grabbing my purse as we walk out the door.

"Yeah because you take forever to get ready." he shoots back giving me a gentle push on the way out of the hotel.

The moment we step outside our ears are filled with the screams of excited fans who had figured out where we were staying. They were always trying something to get a chance to see Zayn and sometimes even me. I had a few comments from them about how cool it must be to be able to go on tour with someone as famous as him but I only saw him as my cousin. The whole title of being famous didn't phase me. He was just someone I had grown up with and the main person who was a constant in my life.

"Zayn! Zayn!" A few girls scream out as his body guards help us through the crowd to the black SUV that was waiting for us.

"Keep moving." A guard says to us as the crowd starts to increase. Zayn pulls me closer to him making sure I can't be grabbed. Sometimes the fans would mess with me to gain a reaction from him but that would only anger him.

As the SUV comes closer into view that's when more of the fans begin to get out of hand. Some managed to pull on me and some even grabbed at Zayn. The guards immediately take action by closing in around us forming a wall escorting is in that way the rest of the way to the vehicle. As soon as we're both inside they shut the door, locking the car taking off.

"You okay?" Zayn asks as he brushes off his jacket before checking his hair in the mirror.

"Yeah, nothing serious." I say letting out a small sigh as I check my hair as well.

"They seem to be getting worse each day." he mumbles with a frown clear on his face.

"Well they are your fans." I say giving him a small laugh hoping to lighten things.

Zayn just rolls his eyes at me before grabbing his phone to call someone. It was either his manager or some girl he had met. I tried telling him to look for a girl he could see a future with but he wouldn't listen to me on that aspect. I pull out my phone as well once he begins to speak and look for someone to text. The car ride was going to be about a thirty minutes or so.

To Liam 🤗 : "Really starting to stress over this event."

From Liam 🤗 : "Ri, there's nothing worry about. You'll be fine."
