Flashback to before the airport*
"I'm so sorry, Archer! Call me everyday and when you land. I love you and you'll always be my best friend. I'm gonna miss you so much!" She said through tears. I hugged her so tight.
"I'm gonna miss you too. I love you Leigh." I day, holding back tears. I say good-bye to her mom as well and walk out to the bus. I regain my composure on the way. When I walk in, I am immediately brought into a group hug, except Zach who stands to the side brushing his teeth. I laugh as everyone let's go. I feel someone hug me again though. I look back to see Jonah holding Damian while the two of them hug me. These boys are the sweetest.
End of flashback*
After the long plane ride, we hop in the car. The boys all reach for the aux chord at once I laugh. They decide to show me a few of their songs, hooked, trust fund baby, and talk. I really like their music. After having a mini concert from them, I'm passed the aux chord and I sit there shocked.
Since Damian was asleep in Daniels arms, I don't have to worry. I play Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time by Panic! At The Disco. I start to hum and all the boys stare at my shocked.
"You can sing!?" Zach yells over the music. My eyes widen and I stare at my hands. The boys plead me to sing. I eventually agree to sing with them...if they get me ice cream.
"What song?" Daniel asks.
"In My Blood?" I answer I enthusiastically. They smile and nod. Jonah searches for the instrumental version and he plugs in his phone to the aux chord.
I'm shaking. I never sing in front of people. I look down at the sleeping Damian. Jack looks at my shaking hands and takes ahold of them to reassure me. The boys and I begin.

The boys look at me in shock but I continue to sing. Once we finish the song, they turn and continue to look at me in awe. I keep my gaze down to my hands.
"That was amazing!" They shout. I smile and look out the window.
"Hey, you did great." Jonah says with a big smile. They take me and Damian to get ice cream I feel like a little kid again.
After eating, we get back in the car and we keep driving until we pull up to a giant mansion.
"Wow." I say before the boys laugh.
