                     Austins POV

After finishing up sound check, the band and I stand backstage, waiting for Issues to finish performing. I begin to think of Hayley, what she went through, and her harming herself. The image of the cuts in her side flashes through my head. I pick my head up out of my hands and dart my eyes around the room until I see her. She's laughing with Oli and the rest of Bring Me, her smile is lighting up the entire room. I begin to calm down, the fear leaving my body.

"Of Mice and Men, 30 seconds!" I stand up, grab a water bottle, and down it before meeting up with Hayley and the rest of my band mates. We all lock hands and gather in a circle, saying a quick prayer.

"Of Mice and Men, 10 seconds!" I swoop Hayley up into a hug and give her a kiss. The sparks fly as they always do and I become light headed. As I place her back down, she smiles at me and I swoon. I turn away from her to follow the band on stage. She swats my butt playfully and I giggle.

"Break a leg!" I hear only her over the roaring crowd. After so many years, I had finally learned to love again.

"This is for you mom." I whisper before charging onto the stage, bouncing with energy.

"ARE YOU READY TO ROCK TEXAS?" I scream into the mic and the yells of the fans rumble under my feet. The boys break into Second and Sebring and we play our fucking hearts out, as we always do.

                    Hayleys POV

After the concert was over and everyone was able to break away from the fans, we all began piling on to our buses. The driver smiled at my widely as he pulled the doors closed. We had two days to make it to Florida, so we had to get back on the road.

I pushed through the group of sweaty band members and plopped down on the black U shaped couch, flinging the curtains open so I can stare out the window.

As we were pulling out of the venue parking lot, I spotted a shit ton of fans walking back to their cars. They all looked tired yet happy, once they saw the bus, their faces lit up. Some of them even began chasing after us on foot.

"Uh, you guys have fans running after the bus." I commented awkwardly, knowing this was a normal thing for them. Oli flew to the back of the bus and everyone followed behind him.

"Aye, gimme a boost!" Some of the boys ran over and Oli placed his feet in Aaron and Tinos hands. He stretched his arms above his head to unlock and pop open the hatch that led to the roof of the bus. I faintly hear him yell to the fans.

"WE FUCKING LOVE YOU ALL. WE'LL BE BACK!" The fans scream loud, high pitched scre- no not screams, squeels, that sounded like could break every glass object in range.

The boys bring him back down and everybody busts into a fit of loud laughs.

My nose crinkles at the smell of the boys.

"You guys fucking STINK!" I laugh and they all lift their arms and begin fanning their stench towards me.

"Ewww!" I squeel and run out of the room to bury my face in the couch.

"DIBS ON A SHOWER FIRST." Alan yells to the rest of the OMAM members. He runs into the bathroom and slams the door. There were two showers on the bus. One for Bring Me and another for Of Mice. Austin and I cuddled up on the couch until the shower was open for the two of us. Despite how bad he smelled, it was comforting. He smelled of sweat, axe, and Austin, I loved it. I heard the bathroom door open and I poked my head up from Austins lap and see Aaron come strolling out, steam from the hot shower following behind him.

"Shower time." I smile at him, knowing what I wanted to do. He pats my knee, sweeps me up in his arms, and carries me into the bathroom, closing the door and locking it behind us.
