Song for this chapter

*****

Much of my life had been devoted to trying not to cry in front of people, so I knew what he was doing. You clench your teeth. You look up. You tell yourself that if they see you cry, it will hurt them, and you will be nothing but a Sadness in their lives, and you must not become a mere sadness, so you will not cry, and you will say all of this to yourself while looking up at the ceiling, and then you swallow those tears even though your throat does not want to close and you look at the person who loves you, and smile.

Niall stands there, pinning in the code to enter Gus. I don't want to talk to Harry, but I want to stay here and tour with the boys. Hopefully they are nice to me, they can make me laugh and smile, just like Niall does.

After the fifth time trying, Niall finally opens the door and I laugh at his goofiness whilst he trots up the stairs. On the last step he trips on it but grasps a chair. I continue laughing, replaying the little scream he made in my head. I mocked him by copying the scream and his checks flush.

"I'm going to embarrass you all the time now." He mumbles, he looks at me seriously then starts laughing.

"It was pretty funny." He still laughs with me.

We walk to the bunk beds and I place my stuff next to Nialls. I hear laughing in the other room and I guess the rest of the boys are here.

"Do you want to go in there?" He asks me.

"Yeah, sure. I don't mind."

We walk into the room and everybody stops talking and looks towards me. I look around and they continue to stare, I notice everyone. The 5SOS boys and the 1D boys, all sitting there, staring.

"Hey, I'm Sophie." I smile looking at them, glancing to Niall, smiling as he puts his arm on my waist.

"Hello!" They all say smiling right back at me, some hi's and hey's where thrown in there as well, by the 5SOS boys.

I look at Harry and he doesn't say anything he just sits there, staring at the wall next to me.

Niall showed me pictures whilst we waited for Paul to pick us up, he was saying their names as well so I'm pretty sure who's who.

"Hey, I'm Michael, if you like video games and music I like you." I laugh.

"I love music, and I love video games." I smile.

"We're going to get on great then." He smiles back and stands up and walks over to me, he hugs me and sits back down"

"I'm uh, Calum from YouTube. And I first off would like to say I'm NOT Asian, and that I'm from New Zealand." He smiles, everyone laughs and I slightly laugh as well. He honestly does look Asian!

"I could tell you look more of a New Zealander." I laugh. Calum hugs me then Ashton stands up.

"Hey I'm Ashton." He smiles cheekily. "I play the drums, that's probably all I'm good at." He laughs and I laugh too.

He stands up to hug me and I hug back, he gives me a kiss on the cheek and everybody starts yelling.

"ASHTON!" They all say and I continue laughing, feeling heat rise to my cheeks.

"Sorry! I couldn't help it." He says, he smiles at me then sits down.

I look at who's next and it's Luke.

"Uh, hi I'm Luke." He shyly says. He bites his lip ring and walks over to me and gives me a hug.

"You're fucking tall." I say to him, he laughs and lowers himself down to my eye level.

"There you go." He says and pats my head.

"You're pretty cool, you're the only girl whose been on tour." Luke says whilst sitting down.

"Wait, are you serious! I'm the only girl whose been on tour! That's so weird, honestly I'm nothing special." I say. Harry still hasn't said a word, I glance over to him and he's still staring at the wall, what is his problem?

"You obviously are special!" Luke says. "To be the only girl who goes on tour, with us. Honestly we are the ones that aren't very special.." He says pointing to his band.

"Nah you guys are on my wall." I simply say.

"Your wall?" Michael questions.

"Yeah it has many different bands." I smile.

They all nod and Niall shifts glares to Harry, trying not to get me to pay attention to him.

Liam stands up and hugs me.

"Hey, I'm Liam, Wh- OMG are you wearing our perfume?" He says like a girl and I laugh.

"In a matter of fact I am, I don't really know you boys honestly, like music wise, but your perfume is like fucking heaven." I reply.

Zayn comes over and hugs me aswell. "Hey I'm Zayn." He says in his thick British accent. Zayn has really sparkly brown eyes, like a puppy dog.

Louis stands up and runs over to me and spins me around, my squealing fills my ears.

"Louis!" I say.

"So you do know us?" He grins as he puts us down.

"I may have tried to learn your names." I reply smiling.

"Well, hello then." Louis smiles.

"Hi." I smile back.

I noticed that Harry has left the room, but I'm thankful that none of the boys noticed.

"GROUP HUG!" Calum yells.

The boys all run up to me, including Niall and they all hug me and I squeal.

"You guys have the bestest hugs, even though bestest isn't a word it's true." I laugh.

"We only give good hugs to the people we love." Luke replies.

"Aww, you guyyys."

The boys sit down on the couch and Niall pats the seat next to him, I sit down and I look to my right and I'm next to Luke.

After minutes of talking and laughing I needed to pee.

I turn to Niall, "Niall I'm going to the restroom." I say and he nods I get up and open the door to the bunk beds.

I see Harry sitting there on his phone, I walk past him sighing as I press the button to open the door. I move to step out of the doorway but I get interrupted.

"Wait Sophie." Harry put his hand on my shoulder and I step back.

"Yes?" I bluntly reply not looking at him.

"I'm so sorry, I really am. I'm a horrible person I know. Niall told me about how you reacted outside and that, and I'm sorry I'm just really tired and I couldn't be bothered with anything. Besides from that I didn't know what had gotten over me." He says looking me dead in the eye.

I don't say anything and he brings me to his chest and hugs me. I'm shocked, that Niall technically told Harry about my life.

"What did Niall say?" I question.

"Just that you cried because you had a fight with your family that's all." He replies as I let go of him. Thank god.

"Oh ok, I forgive you. Don't worry about it anymore." I warmly smile.

I leave to the door. "Oh and Sophie?" Harry asks and I turn around.

"Hello." He says cheekily.

"Hi." I chuckle walking out of the room.
