"Thank you! This is probably the best ending to a tour ever! You've been amazing!" He pulled his phone out of his pocket and held it in the air. "Okay, everyone smile!" He shouted and the audience stuck their hands in the air.

I saw that Dan was about to take the photo so I jumped in front of his phone. Photobombing the picture. He pressed the button and laughed.

"Okay, Lily, move" Dan laughed.

I laughed and stepped out of the way. I looked out at he audience and saw a few people making triangles with their fingers, some making hearts and some just waving.

"Thanks guys! We've been Bastille!" Dan shouted as we walked off, waving.

I took Dan's hand as we walked through the building. I pulled my phone out and checked the time. It was 8pm. I yawned, putting my phone back in my pocket. Dan let go of my hand and I frowned. He laughed putting his arm over my shoulders instead.

We walked outside to the screaming fans. I clung to Dan's arm and he chuckled. I looked up at him and he smiled kindly. I returned it and we went to interact with some fans. Some girls were screaming Dan and he walked over. I quickly followed, grabbing his arm again as I was scared of being alone. Dan turned to me and smiled encouragingly. I smiled shyly back and we reached the fans. They started squealing and asking for us to sign things.


*****************************


I lazily climbed into the van after Dan and clipped my seatbelt on. I checked my phone, it was 10pm. We'd spent two hours with the fans and I was exhausted. I let out a loud sigh and everyone looked at me. Dan chuckled slightly and everyone looked away. I put my head on Dan's shoulder and I felt his head move and his lips kissed the top of my head gently, causing me to blush. Thank god it was dark.

"You tired sweetie?" Dan chuckled into my hair and I nodded slightly, my eyes drooping shut.

I heard him say something else but I slipped into the darkness before I could understand what he said.


"Lily" someone shook me gently.

I moaned and snuggled into what ever I was leaning on.

"Lily" They said again, but slightly louder.

"Noo" I opened my eyes and realised I was snuggled up to Dan, I was practically sat on his knee.

I jumped back and looked down to hide my blush.

"Sorry" I muttered.

"Come on, we're at a service station, get out" Dan laughed.

"Service station?" I asked climbing out of the van.

"Yeah, we have a meeting tomorrow so we need to head down to London tonight" Dan said as we walked into the warmth.

"Oh, how long will it take" I asked as we walked over to the small Costa coffee.

"Uh, like six hours or something" Dan said scratching the back of his neck.

"Six hours?!" I almost yelled.

Dan raised his eyebrows and laughed.

"Sorry" I muttered, looking at my blue converse.

Dan chuckled and we followed Kyle to Costa.

"Hi, uh can I have a coffee please" Kyle said.

"Which kind?" The lady behind the till asked.

"Uh, extra milky" Kyle smiled. (I don't know what kind of coffee there is so, yeah, sorry)

"Of course, is that everything?" She asked.

"Uh, no, Dan?" Kyle turned to Dan.

"I'll have a black coffee please" Dan smiled. "Lily what do you want?"

"Uh, could I have a hot chocolate please?" I smiled shyly.

"Yeah sure, Woody!" Dan called and Woody spun around.

"Yeah?" He called back, him and Will were sat at a table. "Oh, two black coffees please!"

Dan gave him a thumbs up and turned to Kyle.

"Make that three black coffees please" Kyle smiled.

"Is that all?" She asked.

"Yeah thanks" Kyle smiled.

"Okay, so that's three black coffees, one extra milky coffee and a hot chocolate?" The woman said.

"Yep" Kyle smiled.

"Okay, your drinks will be at your table shortly" she smiled and trotted off to make our drinks.

"Cool" Kyle muttered and I followed him and Dan to the table.

We sat down and the guys exchanged small talk. I just sat there leaning on Dan, my eyes threatening to close. I tried to keep them open but they kept closing. Eventually I gave up and let them close. I felt bad for Dan because now that I'm almost asleep, I'm probably putting my whole weight on him. I was about to fall into the darkness when Dan moved, causing me to wake. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. Dan laughed and a hot chocolate was placed in front of me. I smiled sleepily and took a sip of my hot chocolate.

I should have known when I put the cup near my face, my glasses steamed up, to how hot it is. But me being me I just drank it. The hot liquid burned my tongue and I spat it out, with a squeal. I blushed heavily, realising that I'd just spat out my drink all over the table.

"Lily? Are you okay?" Dan laughed.

"No" I muttered.

I felt warm tears flow down my cheeks and I stuck my tongue out of my mouth at an attempt to cool it down. Dan wiped my tears away and put his arm around me, squeezing me closer to him. Fresh tears flowed down my cheeks as I put my tongue back in my mouth. It felt like I'd burnt off the skin on my tongue.

"Ah Dan it hurts" I cried.

"Come with me" he stood up, pulling me with him.

I felt three pairs of eyes on my back as I followed Dan. He walked me to the toilets and I looked questioningly at him. He frowned and turned to me.

"Can you check if anyone is in there?" He asked, gesturing to the female toilets.

"Sure" I said, my voice was still shaky as I was still crying.

I opened the door and looked around, all the cubicles were empty and I couldn't see anyone.

"Hello? Is anyone in here?" I asked shakily.

When I got no reply, I stepped back out and turned to Dan.

"I think it's empty" I said.

"Okay come on" he looked around before walking inside, dragging me along with him.

He walked over to the sink and turned the cold tap on.

"Is this clean?" He asked, frowning at the tap.

"I don't care" I whimpered. I would drink anything if it would cool down my tongue.

"I do, if it's unclean, I'm not letting you near it" he said in a fatherly tone. "Wait here" I nodded and he ran out of the toilets.

I turned to the mirror and stuck my tongue out. I examined my tongue and it was bright red, that can't be good. I prodded it and winced as a stab of pain shot through my tongue. The door burst open and Dan ran in with a bottle of water. He opened it and handed it to me.

"Okay, this is fresh from the fridge, so it's nice and cold. I want you to take a sip and swirl it around your mouth okay?" He smiled.

I nodded, wiping a tear away. I pulled the water up to my lips and took a big sip. I did as doctor Dan instructed and began swirling it around my mouth. More tears fell down my cheeks as the pain became unbearable. I quickly spat it into the sink and wiped my eyes.

"Dan it hurts too much" I cried.

"I know, I'm sorry" he brought me into a fatherly hug and I sighed, letting some more tears out.

He stroked my hair softly and pulled away.

"Okay, let me see your tongue" he said shyly.

"Okay" I muttered.

I stuck my tongue out and Dan ducked down so he was level with my mouth. He frowned and looked me in the eye.

"What?" I asked worriedly. "Is there something wrong with my tongue?"

"I have no idea, uh, have another drink of this" he handed the water back to me, acting like his normal self, without the fatherly tone.

"I can tell you didn't do first aid at school" I laughed.

He chuckled and I took a sip of the water. I let it linger in my mouth for a second, before swallowing. It sent a shock of pain through my tongue and I whimpered.

"Shh it's okay" Dan brought me back into another hug.

"Sorry, I'm overreacting" I muttered, wiping the tears from my cheeks.

"No you're not, you're in pain, you're allowed to be upset" Dan smiled pulling away from the hug.

I drank half the bottle before handing it to Dan. We walked to the door of the toilet and I stopped.

"Lily?" Dan turned around and looked worriedly at me.

"Ah, I need the loo, out, out" I laughed pushing him out the door.

"Okay, I'll be right here" Dan said pointing to the ground.

"Okay" I smiled and walked back into the toilet.


I walked back out of the toilets and looked around. Where was Dan? I squealed as arms wrapped around my waist and I was flung onto someone's shoulder.

"Dan! Get off! Put me down!" I giggled, slapping his back lightly.

He chuckled and put me down.

"Thank you" I muttered, brushing my jeans off.

We walked back to the table and the guys gave me concerned looks.

"I'm fine" I lied, my tongue was giving me excruciating pain, but I could live through it.

"Okay, good, we're just finishing up now, Dan can you drink yours in the car?" Will said and Dan nodded. "I'm guessing you don't want yours Lil" he chuckled.

"No, thanks" I smiled shyly.

"We can make a complaint" Dan said.

"No" me and Kyle said at the same time.

"Why not?" Dan asked confused.

"Dan mate, you're turning into an embarrassing father" Kyle said.

"What? I am not" he crossed his arms like a child.

"Well now you're not, you're acting like a five year old" Kyle laughed.

"Says the four year old" Dan muttered and I laughed.

"Okay, so, let's get back on the road!" Will laughed.

We laughed and walked to the van. Dan had one arm around me and I prodded at my numb tongue.


********************************


Woody was driving and Kyle was asleep on me. He wasn't just leaning on me, he was putting his whole weight on me, causing me to put, both mine and Kyle's weight on Dan, who was seriously squished up to the window. I saw him pull his phone out of his pocket and take a picture of us. I opened my mouth, forming an 'O' and pointing to Kyle and Dan was doing the same, but his mouth was closed and his eyebrows were raised. He laughed and showed me the picture. I laughed at our expressions and 'aww'd at Kyle, who looked so peaceful. I began to feel really uncomfortable with Kyle leaning on me, his chin was digging into my arm and it hurt. I prodded Dan and gestured to Kyle.

"Can I move him? His chin is digging into my arm, but I don't want to wake him" I whispered.

"It doesn't matter if you wake him, just push him" Dan chuckled quietly.

I stuck my thumbs up and shoved Kyle with all the strength I had. He moaned and sat up.

"Lily?" He groaned.

"Sorry, you were hurting me" I giggled.

"Oh, sorry Lilypad" he smiled sleepily at me.

"It's alright catman" I smiled back.


A few minutes passed and I felt myself leaning on Kyle slightly, as I was falling asleep, I hope he didn't mind. I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.


I was woken by a bright flash. My eyes blinked open and I looked around. All I saw was someone's neck. I moved my head slightly so I could see properly. I couldn't move very well, it felt like someone was holding my head still. I tilted my head slightly to see Kyle's head resting on mine. I smiled slightly and looked down. I had my arms wrapped around Kyle's waist and he had his wrapped around my shoulders. My legs were slung over his, so I was almost sitting on his knee. I moved my head sleepily to see Dan smiling at me, holding his phone. I felt my phone buzz in my pocket and I brought my legs back round in front of me, instead of on Kyle's. I slipped my phone out of my pocket and moved my head so I could see it. Kyle was still snuggled up to me, but I had pulled my arms back from around him. I held my phone securely in two hands and unlocked it. I had a mention in twitter. Ooh interesting, no one ever mentions me on twitter. I clicked on the app and it opened up. I squealed mentally when my phone said I had a mention from @BASTILLEdan.

What about me? @BASTILLElily @Kyle_JSimmons

There was a link the he photo that Dan had just taken. He had stuck his head in the photo, frowning and looking me and Kyle. I smiled and favourited the tweet. Dan's phone beeped and he smiled at me. I guess his phone told him that I favourited his tweet. Suddenly his phone kept beeping, as hundreds of notifications came through. He unlocked his phone and frowned at the screen. I tried peering over but he turned it away. I almost felt hurt, he'd never done that before. He began typing and my phone buzzed a few times. I looked at it again and I had some mentions and some direct messages on twitter. I unlocked my phone and read some of the tweets.

@BASTILLElily who are you and what are you doing with my Kyle?

@BASTILLElily you're so pretty! Who are you?

@BASTILLElily you're so talented! Follow me? ;)

@BASTILLElily are you Kyle's girlfriend? *cough* slut *cough*

@BASTILLElily aw you and Kyle look so cute :):)

I looked up and saw Dan staring at me with sorry eyes.

"Lily I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that" he whispered, his voice sounded shaky, like he was going to cry.

"What? It's not your fault, most of them really nice, I was bound to get some hate" I smiled.

His face lit up slightly when he realised that I wasn't mad at him. I was slightly upset about being called a slut, I wasn't sleeping with them. I gave Dan a fake smile and looked back at my phone. I clicked onto my direct messages and began to read them.

-OMG hi, you're so pretty, how do you know Bastille? X

-What are you doing with Kyle? Leave him and the rest of Bastille alone. They're mine bitch.

-Hi Lily! I saw you perform in Sheffield! You're amazing! I love you!

-Hi! You're so lucky being Dan's daughter, I heard you on the radio a few days ago haha you're so talented!

-Ew you fucking slut, stay away from Kyle and Dan. Bitch.

A tear fell down my cheek and I quickly wiped it away, not letting anyone see. Unfortunately Dan saw, he slid his arm around my back and moved me away from Kyle and to his side.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't think they would react like that" he said after reading some of the messages from my phone.

"It's okay, it's not your fault" I said, resting my head on his shoulder.

I felt awkward, as we were sat in the van with everyone else. Luckily Kyle and Will were asleep and Woody had his headphones in, so he probably couldn't hear us.

Dan tightened his arms around me and squished me to him.

"Dan... Can't... Breath..." I whispered as Dan squeezed the air out of my lungs.

"Oh" he laughed loosening his grip and looking me in the eyes. "Sorry" he smiled.

"It's okay, I can breath now" I giggled.

I yawned and put my head on his shoulder.

"Sweet dreams" Dan said softy. "I love you"

I smiled sleepily. "I love you too Dan"

My eyes closed and I drifted off to sleep.
