13. Who is Abby?

Caitlyn's POV.

We are now in the tour bus, heading to the Stadium. Oh my gosh, two more freaking hours. Two more hours before we get there. Ugh, what to do? The boys are in the game room and they won't let me in because that room is only for them. Very sweet eh? So I am here, in the living room, alone. I put out my phone and play a random game, while I am playing the game, my phone vibrated. Someone's calling. I looked at the caller ID and it's Abby? I tap the green button and put my phone to ear.

"Hel-"

"Hey long time no communication, girl!" She cheered up, gosh, I miss her. When I was about to respond, there was a loud music from the background. Where is she? Looks like she's in a party, club or something? But the last time I checked her, she is allergic to clubs and parties.

"Where are you?" I yelled through the phone. I heard her say 'sorry' while I heard footsteps. Where is she going?

"Uh, I'm so sorry I was just making my way out of the party. Gosh, I hate crowded place!" She cleared her throat, party?

"Party?! What party?" Curiousity hits me. I mean she doesn't like parties.

"Oh, you know... some rich kid in our school threw a party and he invited all, I mean not all but some people in our school."

"In your school, not mine." My voice is half quiet and serious. Yeah, I used to love that school but not anymore. Me and Abby are high school bestfriend, she's like my sister. When we graduated in High School, we decided to take the same course and entered the same University and it went really well.. then suddenly, Robbie popped up and continued to bully me. I can't take it anymore so I decided to transfer to another school.

"Sorry." She mumbled.

"Is he there?" I asked randomly, I know he is there. He is present in every party and he'll fuck all the girls there if he wanted to.

"Who is he?" I can picture her face now, eyebrows raised and lips parted.

"Robbie Reyes?"

"Uh, I-I didn't saw him, he is not here. He's sick. Yeah yeah, he is sick." She stuttered and lil bit nervous? There's something wrong here. She is lying when she stutters.

"Okay?"

"So tell me about everything you little unicorn! How'd you get there? How did you win their promo? And, there's something between you and Neil, eh? And plea-"

"Calm down, and it's Niall. You pronounced it as the Nile River." I cut and laughed at her. She's not a fan so it's normal that he called Niall; Neil.

"Whatever, I'm not a fan so I don't know. So tell me everything!" Oh boy.

Half an hour later.

We talked about everything, she told me about her new boyfriend named Joshua, about the Uni, her dumb classmates and Robbie. She told me that he really changed. He became more flirt and he took different girl every night in his apartment. I was just wondering, why did he changed?

From smarty-ass nerd to hot-cocky-popular-campus-heartbreaker-badboy? He is a very nice guy and if I remember, he always do my homework. But suddenly, he changed like Justin Bieber. Even the way he dress, from suspenders to leather, from brush sided hair to quiff, from low cut-converse to boots. I don't know what the hell came up to his mind and he changed his attitude and style.

"You still there? Hey?" Abby chuckled through the phone, "You're zoning out." She continued.

"Yeah, I guess, sorry."

"So, can I? Please?"

"Can you what?" Gosh, I hate this. I don't know what to say and I don't remember anything she said.

"Niall's number. Please?"

"What will you d-"

"Hey, I am not going to steal Niall from you. He is all yours! I'm.. I just wanna get his number not because he is famous but because.. I will tell him to protect you. You're alone there, Caitlyn, you don't know England..I wanna know him better and I wanna know if he's the right one for you, who knows." Her voice filled with emotions that I can't explain, she's serious this time. I need Niall's permission here but..screw it. Abby is my best friend and I trust her.

"Just promise me one thing." I said and she hummed. "Don't leak or give it to others. He is a popstar and you know what will happen if his number get leaked, okay?" I continued.

"Yeah of course."

"I'll just send it to you, okay?"

"Okay." I can picture her smile right now. "It's getting late here in the Philippines, I'll call you soon, okay? Thank you so much for everything Cait, I miss you. See you very very soon." Her voice cracked. Damn, I hate this.

"I miss you too Abby. Bye, get out of the phone before I'll start to cry." I said and hung - up. I lay down to the cushion, facing the window bus, I put my phone beside me and I close my eyes. I miss Abby, my brother and sister, the food, the good memories and specially Philippines. I miss my country. I stay there for a moment then someone interrupted my thoughts, Niall. He sat beside me, he looked worried but still manage to smile. "Why are you crying, babe?" He said as he cupped my cheek and wiped my tears. What? Am I crying? Yes, I am crying.

"Excuse me." I got up from the cushion and made my way to the bathroom.

Niall's POV.

"Loserrrr!" Louis yelled as I lost the game. Well, I don't even know how to play that stupid game.

"Whatever, I'm out." I said as I got from the floor and made my way to the living room.

"Two versus two!" I heard Zayn's voice. Oh man. That game is only for idiots. I shook my head and smirked. I saw Caity facing the window, her eyes are closed but tears streamed down her cheeks. What happened? I quickly sat beside her and asked what the hell is wrong but she avoid me and went to the bathroom, nice. I looked at her while she's walking towards the bathroom, I run my fingers to my hair and looked at the scenery outside, it's sunset. Great, one more hour and the concert will start. I put my hands to the both side of my body and I felt something hard, Caity's phone. I unlock it and thank God there's no passcode but what shocks me the most is Caity's wallpaper is me, my face. I felt butterflies, godammit. While I'm looking at her gallery.. Gallery full of my face I should say. Her phone vibrated, there's a message;

Are you okay now? Sorry if I made you cry .xx

What? Who is Abby?
