*PROLOGUE*

READ COLORFUL FIRST

Ryder's POV:

So, tomorrow is the first official day of The Bandlife Tour. Were all super excited!

Here's a quick recap of what's happened.

Julianna and I got an A on our English project.

The Stars Dance tour was epic.

My birthday was the best. Not that I have much to compare it to. Drew had gotten me concert tickets and VIP tickets to see Eminem , which I'm super stoked about.

We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas at Laraine's house and I finally got to meet Issac and he's so adorable I can't even explain it.

I also found out I needed glasses.

Drew and I spent New Year's in Sequim and I got to meet everybody and had a ton of fun.

So here we are, February 7th. Day before the tour.

Julianna's here helping me pack. Nick, Kian, and Austin are coming over later so we can say our goodbyes. Well, Nick talked his dad into letting him come to the airport with us and saying goodbye then.

"That's everything." Julianna sighed.

"Yeah." I said, putting the photo of my mom into my carry on.

We have to fly to Houston at three in the morning and a bus will be there after the concert tomorrow with the rest of our bags.

"I'm really gonna miss you." I sighed, hugging the girl I had gotten extremely close to.

"I'll miss you too." She said, as we whipped away tears.

Nick, Austin, and Kian ran into the room and pulled Julianna and I into a group hug, making me cry even more.

"I love you guys." I said, as we pulled apart.

We all went downstairs once we heard the pizza delivery guy at the door.

My eating disorder has made good improvement. But, since that has been our main focus since being in a coma my mood swings, OCD, and separation anxiety have gotten worse.

I grabbed a slice and sat down in the living room.

Everyone was here. Well obviously Drew, Wes, Keaton, Kelsey, Julianna, Nick, Kian, and Austin were here but, Kyle, Kenny, Breezie, Carly, and Taylor were here.

Kyle and Kenny were coming with us, which was a pro of the tour. They're like brothers to me.

Kelsey and Drew were actually really serious. Sometimes a little too serious. I've heard things in the middle of the night that I really don't want to talk about. But, I love them both to death and they're adorable together.

Wes and Carly were still going strong. They're also pretty adorable together.

Keaton's just chilling for now.

"Ryder, wake up." Wes' voice rung i my ear, as he shook me awake.

"What?" I groaned.

"You have to get ready, were leaving in an hour." He said as I sat up, looking at the clock that read 2:00 am.

I got up as Wes left and got into the shower.

I showered with twenty minutes, personal record.

I blow dried my hair and wrapped a towel around my body and went to my wardrobe, turning on the light on my way there.

I fixed my black bra that had twisted itself as I pulled on my tie-dyed Mod Sun hoodie with a pair of light grey cotton shorts.

I pulled my hair into a messy bun and didn't even bother to do my make-up, considering it was in one of my bags and it was too early. I pulled on my glasses, which were black ray-bans. I didn't feel like putting in contacts.

I slid on grey flip flops. It's actually pretty warm here.

I pulled my bags downstairs and out to the bus that was parked in the driveway, with Keaton's help.

Drew handed my a breakfast wrap from

McDonalds and vanilla frappucino from Starbucks as we all piled into the Range Rover.

Ranel drove us, like usual. Drew sat in the passenger seat. Kelsey, Kyle and I in the middle. Keaton, Kenny, and Wes were in the car behind us.

I took a sip from the Vanilla Frappucino and bit into the breakfast wrap.

We pulled into the parking lot of the airport as we grabbed our bags, walking into the airport.

Here goes nothing.
