Rachaels p.o.v

I've been sitting in my bunk for three hours and I've been on my phone for all of those hours. I'm still surprised at how much those pieces of metal meant to me. I just thought that they would be nothing to me...

"Hey, we're stopping for food, do you wanna come inside with us to get it?" Calum's head peaked through the curtains of the bunk.

"Um-sure," I said quickly with a fake smile. He smiled back and his head went away. I jumped off the top bunk, slipped my black converse on and went over the front of the bus where the guys were. The guys of One Direction were there too, talking to the rest of the boys.

Nine guys, one girl. Whatta day this'll be.

"Ready?" Liam looked around for approval and we started heading out. I stayed behind everyone, with one earbud in my ear. My phone was on shuffle and a song I haven't heard in forever came on: When You Can't Sleep at Night by Of Mice and Men. I couldn't help but gasp, this song meant so much to me. It still does. Almost everybody turned around to look at me, but Ashton slowed down to be next to me.

"What's up?" He asked my, moving a little closer.

"Oh nothing," I smiled at the ground, he always makes me smile without doing anything.

"What's there to smile about?" I didn't have to look at him to know he was smiling at me.

"You." I looked up at him and he was still smiling down at me.

"Aw, how flattering," He said jokingly, he kissed my forehead and we kept walking.

•••••••ONE WEEK LATER•••••••

"Why don't come out of your cave!?" Michael yelled at me, laughing.

"I don't want to!" I laughed too, he was just peeking his head through the curtains, laughing.

"C'mon, we'll hang out today. Just me and you or just you, Calum and me?" I bit my lip thinking.

"Ugh, fine," I said, pushing his face out of the way so I could get off. "Where's Luke?"

"Oh, he went for a jog with Ashton and Liam. They left about 5 minutes ago so they'll be back in maybe 10. So I'll go get Calum!" He yelled excitedly running to his bunk.

I should start talking to Luke again. He's my brother for crying out loud, we should almost me best buds. It's been a week since we last talked and that was the day we left for the tour. Our fights have never lasted a week. Ever. Not even this one time when we went into a Pokemon battle and I won. The fight was pretty much about him burning 10 of my Pokémon cards and me ripping his "chick magnet" shirt. It only lasted 3 days and we were back to hanging out all the time. I was 13 and he was 14 and we were getting in to fights about Pokémon.

"Ray's out of her nest!" Calum surprised me by hugging me in a tight hug, lifting me off the ground. I put my arms around his neck laughing and hoping he wouldn't drop me but also hoping he would just put me down.

"Yeah, yeah, put me down!" I squealed, laughing.

"Ugh, I love that laugh! You haven't laughed for ages!" He put me down and looked me in the eyes.

"I know right!" Michael agreed, I just laughed while getting my vans on.

"So where should we go first?" I asked the boys.

*+*+*+*NIALLS P.O.V+*+*+*+

Amy's been texting me nonstop all morning. It's getting annoying as hell but if I text her back, I'm afraid that'll make her wanna text me more since she knows I'm reading them. Louis and Harry walked in to the room with me and sat down.

"Hey, mate, you seemed frustrated and we wanted to help." Louis said proudly.

"What's been going on?" Harry asked, leaning forward.

"It's Amy! She keeps texting me and leaving me voicemails! I don't know if I'm supposed to tell her off or just ignore it."

"Amy? That skan-" Harry started but was cut off by Lou.

"Skilled full dresser?" Louis didn't even convince himself this.

"Yes, that Amy." I leaned back in my seat, putting my hands over my eyes.

"Have you had, erm, sex with this girl. Sorry if this too personal.. " Louis asked awkwardly.

"No- well, um, yes..." I said thinking about my answer.

"No and yes?" Harry asked this time.

"It was more of, uh, dry sex? We never took our clothes off but we- erm, yea." I felt so awkward and weird talking about this.

"You know, I heard the first person a girl has sex with, she will always have an emotional connection with them. Maybe you were her first?" Louis offered the idea but it was stupid.

"Of course I'm not her first, do you know how experienced she was?! And Rachael said she's pretty much dated every guy at her uni."

"Yeah, maybe she just wants the fame? Sorry if that offends you." Lou apologized again but he was most likely right about this.

"You're probably right, I'm gonna go for some food. I'll be back in 20 minutes." I smiled and walked out of the room and out of the bus.

Should I just tell Amy to piss off or should try to be about it? Maybe I should block her number... I'll do all of them.

(A/n,

My "schedule" for updates does not exist and will never. I update when I finish a chapter and that happened a day after I already updated a chapter or a few and maybe even a week.) *ultraviolence*
