After the event finishes, I decide to text Allie. She's still here but she won't notice me over the noise.

Hey, you and Bailey wanna come backstage?

Baileys all for it, so sure!

Okay, if you go back to where you were standing, there's a black door to your left. Go through there and I'll meet you back there.

Kk.

I sprint towards the doors, and wait patiently for them. Soon enough, the come through, and a huge smile spreads across Allies face when she looks at me.

"That was actually really awesome!" Allie says excitedly. She sort of claps while her friend nods her head frantically.

"Let's go back to the hotel Allie, I'm hungry." Bailey whines.

"Well see you then. But you guys should come back to our hotel room tonight yeah?" Allie gives me the thumbs up but Bailey is already out the door. She smiles at me and mouths 'thank-you' before running after her friend.

Allies POV

We get back to the hotel, and there is tons of screaming fans there. How did they find out where the boys are staying? I shrug it off and we head over to the starbucks that's inside the building. We're lucky that's it's not very busy. We order our stuff and decide to go back up to our room, where it's quieter.

"Soooo, did you have fun?" Bailey asks me in between chewing mouthfuls of food.

"Surprisingly, yeah I did." I say.

"Or was it just cause Carter was there?" She smirks at me. I put my mad face on.

"Hey!!" I exclaim, "maybe I like him a little bit, but this whole trip doesn't just revolve around him to help me have a good time! And I just realized that we only have so much time here, so I should enjoy myself." Shrugging, I take a sip of my drink.

I decide to check twitter, and so I open it up. I scroll down to the trending tags, and one of the tags caught my eye.

"Bailey, check this out." She scoots over to where I'm sitting, "that song Shawn sang today, I think that's what they're talking about." Bailey looks like she's choking back a laugh, "Whaaaat now?" I say.

"Nothing. You'll figure out eventually." I don't even bother trying to fight her, because she's not gonna tell me.

•••A Few Hours Later•••

Bailey and I are watching Gossip Girl, when I get a text from Carter.

You guys wanna come over here now? Cameron realllly wants to see Bailey

Haha okaaaay, see you in a few.

"C'mon Bailey! We're going to see the boys, Carter said Cam reallly wants to see you." I wiggle my eyebrows at her and she jumps up, looking really excited. We head down to the boys room, and Taylor answers the door.

"Hey, come in." He says. We step in, but there's nobody inside.

"They're all in the bedroom." Taylor informs us. So the three of us step into the bedroom, where everyone else is.

Once everyone settles down, Matt yells, "WHO'S UP FOR HIDE AND SEEK?!" All the boys cheer and Aaron speaks up.

"How about we do partners?" Aaron suggests, "And let's play it throughout the hotel, so that it's harder." They all cheer again.

"Everybody pick a partner!" Matthew yells. It starts to be a ruckus. Jack picks Jack, Aaron picks Shawn.

"Wanna be partners?" Taylor asks me. I smile and nod my head. Hayes and Carter pick each other.

"Okay, I guess I'm it..." Nash says sadly, "Now go!"

Without even thinking, I grab Taylor's hand and we run out the door.

"Let's go to my hotel room, we can act like we're hiding somewhere hard, and we'll wait it out for a while." I look at Taylor while we're running.

"Isn't that cheating?" He smirks at me.

"Maybe, but I'm a rebel." I stick my tongue out at him. We make it to the stairwell and book it down a couple stories. We arrive at the door and I swipe the key card, still holding his hand. We walk inside and sit down in the tv room.

"Out of breath already?" I tease Taylor. He's panting like crazy. Taylor gives me the stink eye and throw his hands up in defeat.

"You're not?"

"I usually go running every morning. Well more like every night." I tell him. He looks impressed. I watch him take off his bandana, it's pink today.

"Here." He stands up and puts the bandana around my head, "it will look better on you anyway." I can feel my cheeks flush when he says that. I put my head down, kind of embarrassed.

"Thanks," I manage to whisper. When I look up again, he's staring at me.

"Let's play call of duty," I suggest.

"I'm gonna kick your ass." He laughs at me.

Taylors POV

I start playing Call of Duty with Allie, and I'm beating her good. I look over at her, and I was right. My pink bandana looks way better on her.

"Yes!!" She jumps up, "I killed you, I killed you!"

"How many is that? One time? I've killed you like 30 times." I retort, only to get a punch in the arm back. I hear Allie's phone ring, and look to see who's calling. It says Carter.

"Hey. No I'm not telling you where we're hiding. No! A good hider never gives away their spot. Yes, we'll come back. Bye." She hangs up the phone, shaking her head and laughing.

"Shall we go?" I ask.

Allies POV

I really want to grab his hand again before we leave, but I thought it might be awkward. Instead he grabs my hand.

We make it back to his room, where everyone looks confused.

"Where were you guys?" Shawn asks.

"I think I know..." Nash points at our hands, and both of us drop them immediately.

"Uhhh... Let's play truth or dare!" Cam says, sitting beside Bailey.

"I'll go first!" Aaron says with excitement.

"Taylor, truth or dare?" He asks.

"Dare I guess..." Taylor groans.

"I dare you to go into the other room with Allie for 10 minutes." All the boys make an "ooooo" face.
