Would You Mind? (A.P Fanfic)

Gone (56)

Danielle's P.O.V
"Where's Austin?" I asked and that's when everyone paused what they were doing

"I don't really know now that I think about it..." Jessie said

"He was literally just walking off the stage with us." Edwin thought out loud

Everyone let go of me and we all stood up together

"So he just like... disappeared?" Amanda asked everyone

"That's what it sounds like." Mya mumbled and we all stood in a circle facing each other, totally confused about what to do next

"We gotta go look for him." I said, "We can't just stand around if we don't know where he is."

"Yea. Let's go." Kaylee said

"Wait. Shouldn't we have a plan of some sort?" I asked

"What do you mean?" Mya questioned me

"Like, go together and i'll just tag along with one of you guys. Ya'know, so no one is walking around by themselves." I stated

"You're right." Nick said

"What guy is strong enough to carry Dani for a long period of time. You all can probably carry her, not saying she's heavy or anything, but like, up stairs and stuff." Jessie asked

"I'm fine." I said while rolling my eyes

I always enjoyed being independent and although I probably should ask for help I would completely enjoy walking by myself

"Do you know how hard you got hit in the head? Your not fine. Maybe tomorrow you will be better but for now someone is carrying you while we look for him." Kaylee said

I shrugged what she said off and said, "I'm an independent ass woman, I don't need no man to carry me." I flipped my hair but that movement caused me to hold my head and blink my eyes a couple times

"Just because you did that, you proved our point." Mya crossed her arms

"Edwin's clearly the most build out of all of us. And he's wearing pretty loose clothes." Brandon said

"Then I guess she's coming with us." Jessie smiled widely

"Fine." I mumbled

Edwin silently walked up to me and helped me get onto his back

"You guys ready?" I asked and everyone nodded

We all parted ways and began looking all over the venue for Austin

"Now that I think about it, Noah isn't here either." Jessie said to us

"Oh you're right." I said

"Interesting." Edwin replied

"This whole thing is weird and confusing. It's not like Austin would want to randomly disappear when he knows you got knocked off your ass just before the concert started." Jessie said

"Hey, if I saw it coming I wouldn't have been so caught off guard ok?" I backed myself up causing Edwin to roll his eyes

"It's not about if you fought back but instead about him not wanting to leave you. That's why him being gone right now is confusing." Edwin said and I nodded as our journey continued in silence

We all met back up in the same changing room we were in after the concert ended

"He's literally no where to be seen." Zion said

"Yea it makes no sense why he would leave." Amanda stated

"Exactly, it makes no sense, which means that he had a reason to leave, like he's trying to do something. I'm guessing." I shrugged

"She's right." Noah agreed with me

"When did you get here?" Nick turned and looked at him confused

"Wait... good question. I remember seeing him walk off the stage with Austin." Brandon squinted his eyes suspiciously at Noah

"Yea! And he wasn't with us during the group hug and when I accidentally woke Dani up." Zion contributed into the conversation

"Sit down Noah!" Jessie placed her hands on Noah's shoulders and pushed him down onto a seat

Kaylee fidgeted with her phone until the flashlight finally game on and she began shining it in his eyes

I giggled to myself as I watched them all interrogate Noah

"Where were you about fifteen minutes ago? HMMM?" Edwin asked Noah

"I was umm. In the bathroom." Noah replied, looking around the room and avoiding eye contact

"You're my best friend, when you don't make eye contact I know you're lying." Brandon said to Noah

"Okay then. We have figured you out, now tell the truth!" Zion spoke up

"I was with Austin, but then we parted ways and I came here." Noah said but once again, he avoided eye contact

"Is Austin up to something?" I asked Noah

Everyone turned and looked at me because this whole time I wasn't speaking, just spectating

"Uh. I think- I mean no- I don't know." Noah shook his head and tried to play off the fact that he just told us what's sort of going on

"Are you helping him with this thing he's doing?" I asked another question

"Maybe? I still don't know." Noah's palms began sweating and it was very noticeable

"That's it." I said and everyone looked at me again

"What is it?" Zion asked as everyone turned their whole bodies to face me and not just their heads

"He's buying Austin time to do whatever he's doing. Noah was a distraction." I said

"Oh shit you're right!" Edwin exclaimed but by the time we all turned back around to question Noah again, he was gone.
