Chapter 6

Two days later, I have not seen nor heard from Ryan and honestly I could not complain. I did run out on him during lunch, he nearly made me eat that nasty food and he said some mean things about Harry.

This tour stop, that they were having a concert in, did not have any nice hotels so we were staying on the tour bus.

"Niall I'm telling you mate, that's way too many, one more and they will fall. " Liam said. I watched from my spot on the couch as Niall tried to place the last crushed can of Pepsi ontop of the nicely stacked pyramid. His hand shook slightly, little beads of sweat began to form on his forehead and just as the Pepsi can met the other can of aluminum the door to the bus swung open. The gust of air that it created made the pyramid wobble, back and forth it shook, before it finally came to a crash on the floor.

"Why?!" Niall cried out, dropping onto his knees with his hands in the air.

"Told you!" Liam taunted.

"I want a rematch!" Niall declared, my eyes wandered over to the opened door whoever it was wasn't suppose to be coming in here but he hesitantly slid past the bus driver anyways.

"Ryan?! What are you doing here?"

"Let's... Take this outside..." Liam motioned Niall out of the bus.

"I came to find you as soon as I remembered where I had seen Harry from.. I should have known from the very first glance. That graduation par-"

"No! No.. No.. Just stop. Don't make the memories come back!" I screamed at him. "Please?" I begged in a much quieter tone.

"But you-"

"I never told you about anything from my past, how would you know? How can I even trust what you're saying is true?"

"We went to the same high school, Hazel. We went to the same graduation party, you wore a navy blue dress right?"

My blood ran cold, I did wear that color dress but that proves nothing.

"Just STOP!" I scream. Maybe a little too loudly, heavy foot steps could be heard coming from the bunk room.

"I tried to stop him, I tried-"

--flashback time--

"Have this, you'll loosen up fast and have the best night of your entire life. No more school, no more worries, no more parents. Hell yeah!" Some random person shoved the red cup in my hand, with his other hand he downed his cup of whatever choice of beverage before crushing the cup and falling backwards to his sleeping state. He passed out so fast I had to step around him to find my way back to my friend I came here with.

10 minutes later I still hadn't found her, my cup had been long gone, I was now on my 8th cup. Whatever I was drinking was sweet enough for likings and dry enough to basically mask any fear I might have had walking alone at this party.

The room started to spin, my vision began to blur, my tongue began to feel numb. How was I even walking right now? I couldn't feel anything.

"Hazel! You made it, good to see you!" A younger looking Ryan smiled at me, his hair was much shorter now and he grew atleast another 3 inches.

"Yeah, awesome. You too." I murmured and took the drink from his hands, I guzzled it down and handed it back to him empty.

"Wow.." He chuckled and I rocked back and forth on my heels letting the music carry me away from here. Not psychically but mentally.

"Hey Ry! Can I get that drink back from you? I know who I want to give it to.." A whiney, unpleasant and high pitches voice gasped. "Damn, that was the good stuff too." She hit him, the sound of it echoed to my ears. Though I could only make out shadows and noises now.
