Emily's POV**

We get to the hotel, and check in.

Alex and dad are sharing a room, so are Charlie and Leondre, so I'm by myself, though I'll probably be in the boys' room most of the time.

I lift my bag and guitar, and start to the elevator. "You coming?" I turn to everyone, and they follow.

I hear my phone go off and groan, knowing I either have to put something down and check it or wait.

"Here." Charlie holds the screen up for me to see.

Mela💖: I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE ON TOUR! SEE YOU IN FRANCE GIRL xxx

I smile, and Charlie activates speech dictation, so I can answer Amelia.

We get in the elevator, and fall into that awkward elevator silence where no one talks or knows what to say.

"Okay, I'm down this way." I say, pointing to one corridor, while the boys start down a different one.

"Aw, but we're down here." Leondre whines. Charlie and I share a grin.

"I'll be down once I'm changed and look like less of a mess." I say with a grin, and turn down the coridor.

I get to the door, and open the door, pushing the door open. It's quite a big room for one person, but then I guess this is properr hotel.

I put my bag down, rest my guitar on a chair and lie on the bed. I slept most of the way here, to be honest, so I'm not really that tired. I change into a navy blue shirt and black leggings, socks and vans.

I'm just about to go, when there's a knock on the door. I open it, and Alex is standing there.

"Hey bro, I'm just going over to Leondre, you coming?" I ask, pulling on a jacket as well.

"Nope, we're gonna have a little talk."

"Um-"

He pushes me back a little, and I roll my eyes, going to sit on the bed. "Right."

"What's up bro?"

"We're in a hotel, and you're in a room by yourself." He states, giveing me a look.

I think for a second, before catching on. "Oh, haha, no." I say, blushing. "We've been together for just over three months Alex, We're not having sex."

"Well I have to talk to you about it anyway, seeing as I'm playing mum for you on this trip."

"Can't you just be my brother?" I whine, but he shakes his head.

"Nope, sorry Em. Look, you're sixteen, you're legal, and I technically can't stop you, so here." He throws a box at my head. I duck, turn and look at it.

"Oh my god Alex!" I scream, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. "Have a bit of faith in me!"

"I do, but I also know you'll get pulled in by the moment, and you're sixteen. So don't get pregnant." He grins wickidly, and I fall back on the bed as he leaves.

"I hate my brother." I groan, taking the box and stuffing it in a drawer, when there's another knock on the door.

if it's Alex again I swear- I open the door, and it's Leondre.

"Oh, hi."

"Hey, you didn't come down?"

"Alex came by, and wanted a chat." I shrug, and Leondre smiles.

"Anyway, Charlie's on FaceTime to Chloe, so I gave them privacy." He rubs the back of his neck and I smile, pulling him into my room.

"You want a drink, I got food somewhere." I point to my bag, but Leondre looks down, shaking his head.

"No, thanks."

"Hey, what's wrong?" I ask, sitting next to him, putting my arm over his shoulders.

He doesn't answer, just leans into me, and that's how we stay for a while.

"Can- Can I stay here for a bit?" He asks, and I hug him.

"Of course, babe, of course. What do you want?"

"You." He looks at me, and my heart is in my throat, my breath catches and I feel so many raw emotions flood over me.

"I'm yours, Devries. And I don't plan on going anywhere."

"I love you." He said it. He said he loves me. And then I think back to the journey here, and...

"I love you too Devries."
