Promise (5sos Fanfic)

Chapter Twenty-Eight

Michael Clifford gets on the bus last, but before me.

This is gonna be good.

It's got to be. I still haven't figured out what I want to do yet, but I know I have to figure it out soon, if I want the results to end up right.

It has to be on stage.

I sit on my bunk thinking when an evil smile crosses my lips.

I know what I'm going to do.

---

"Hey Ashton." I play, smiling as if all is okay.

"Yeah?" He turns to me from his view on the couch.

"Do you want to go shopping with me? I got some things I need to pick up." I say casually.

He sighs. "Sure I guess. Better not be long though."

He gets up, and we travel to a little general store near the bus.

I grab the stuff I need, pretend to get some important stuff, then pay, and head out again.

While walking back, I bump into Lucy, who's part of the plan.

"Oh hey Lu." I say normally.

She smiles evilly. "Hey Drey. What's that for?" She points at the bag.

Ashton stands there awkwardly.

"Oh, you know. Girl stuff." I answer, smiling.

Even more uncomfortable.

"Oh right. I know what you mean. Speaking of which, I need some help. Do you mind if I borrow her for a moment?" Lucy asks Ashton.

He looks very uncomfortable now, so he nods quickly. "Sure. I'll just go back to the bus."

He hurries off in the direction of the bus.

Lucy and I break into laughter. "Did you see his face?" She asks, not holding her laughs in.

"He looked so weird!" I agree.

"Alright. Let's go to that alley to work on the plan." Lucy says, grabbing my bag and leading me to an empty alley.

Not creepy at all.

Actually, we planned this. I called her, seeing if she would "accidentally bump into us" while Ashton and I were walking back to the bus. We would then talk about uncomfortable girl things, leaving Ashton to go back to the bus, and me to 'help Lucy'.

Pretty great plan yeah?

Lucy empties out the bag that contains 5 water guns, plastic wrap, and a few hundred cups.

"So, how are we going to do this?" Lucy asks.

"Well, I plan on getting everyone except Michael in on the last one. Other than that, it's just you and me in on the pranks. The fans are going to go wild." I answer.

She nods. "Alright. Let's get started on it."

---

I was so nervous. I wasn't sure if it was going to work. Of course it was going to work. Well, maybe not.

"Alright 5sos, get on that stage!" A man yells to them.

Here we go.

I hear immediate screams from the boys, followed by fan laughter.

I walk out behind them, but they didn't get very far.

The whole stage is covered in cups. You can't walk anywhere.

All the boys look at me. "You!"

I smile. "Sure thing honey."

I run out on stage kicking cups everywhere. "Here ya go!" I shout to the fans, as the cups clatter into their hands.

The stage is soon cleared, and the boys walk out.

"Will someone please bring us our guitars? We weren't allowed to have them for some reason. And I figure that reason is because of Audrey." Luke says into the microphone.

"Nailed it. You are finally catching on." I wink at him.

Lucy and I both carry out the guitars, covered in plastic wrap.

"What the-" Calum looks shocked.

Fans laugh, and I smile.

I hand Luke his guitar, which he immediately holds it up for the fans to see. "Look what she did! Look what my girlfriend did!"

Fans go crazy at the mention that I'm his girlfriend. Oh yeah. No one knew about that.

"Sorry. I'm taken now!" He shouts into the crowd.

I smile. All the boys start to tear off the plastic wrap, even Ashton. His drum sticks are stuck together.

It takes a while, Lucy and I did a good job wrapping them.

"Oh, you girls are gonna pay for that." Ashton says.

Lucy and I hurry off stage, cause that's all we are going to do....for now.

"Oh my gosh. Are you ready?" She asks me.

"When they finish their last song." I say.

I go out their for my songs, the last two. I stay out there after it's done.

"So...everyone? I would like to say one thing to Michael Clifford..." I say.

He looks at me.

"You've been pranked!" I shout, running over to Ashton's drum set.

Luke and Calum also hurry over there, grabbing something from behind the big drum. Ashton reaches over, picks something up, then aims it at Michael.

We all have water guns trained at Michael. Lucy comes out from backstage carrying on too.

All at once, we fire the water at Michael.

He screeches, trying to block it from hitting his face.

The water runs out, and we all laugh.

"How's that guys?" Luke asks into the microphone.

The fans yell back in return.

"I hope that's good enough pay back for last time with the goo." I say.

Michael spits out water from his mouth. "And now I'm soaking wet. Thanks Audrey."

"Welcome. Love ya buddy. See you on the bus!" I wave and prance backstage.

God, I hope that was good enough.

---

It's been two weeks. Only one show left.

I'm gonna miss being on the bus, as terrible as that sounds.

"You ready Audrey?" Luke asks me, as we were getting off the bus.

"Ready as I'll ever be." I tuck my beanie over my head, and walk off the last three steps of the bus.

"Alright. Let's go." Ashton says.

We reach the place where we were playing. God this place is huge.

"Last show tonight." Ashton announces.

I take a deep breath.

I remember when Michael first asked me to come on tour with them.

I smile. The proposal.

Now, after all this time. Here we are.

Back in Sydney. Playing our last show.

I'll probably never get to preform again, but, who cares? I had the chance of a lifetime, and I took it. Being on a small bus, crammed with my four best friends, was all I ever needed.

And now, I'm getting to preform one last time. No pranks. No embarrassing acts. Just preforming.

Now.
