Shayla's P.O.V.

As Ashton stared at me in confusion, I was studdering trying to explain.

"Well uh ya see um.... uh..." I started to tear up.

Hannah was comforting me. Or atleast trying to. I was balling at the sight of Ash. I lied to him now I have to explain everything! What will he think of me?

Instead of being mad... He ran up and hugged me! Woah what??? I hugged back and cried into his neck.

"I know it's scary when you lose your friend, especially in the dark." He said while rubbing my back.

Hannah looked over at Luke and sighed. Then Luke walked over to her and whispered something in her ear. They left towards the bus i guess... Together.

"Listen Ashton... I-I-I'm not who you think I am... I uhh... I'll um explain later!"

"No problem! Hannah said you had nowhere to go so do ya'll wanna stay in our bus for the night? We're not leaving until tomorrow."

"Yeah sure that'd be great!"

Me, Ash and Michael headed towards the bus. I smiled at the ground while "accidentally" leaning on Ashton. He smirked. I'm so happy right now!

My thoughts about the whole situation disapeared when I looked into those eyes! Suddenly, we all saw something that was was not promising!

Luke's P.O.V.

I saw Hannah hugging Shayla while sobbing. I was confused! And so was Ashton I guess cuz his voice cracked when he said "Shayla?"

I looked at the girls and they seemed scared. How can I talk to Hannah? They're hiding something I know it! I need an explanation..

Ashton pushed infront of me and ran to hug "his woman." I tease him about it cus well he basically loves her! I looked over at Han. She looked away from me and started to sniffle.

I finally walked up to her, put my hand on her shoulder and whispered in her ear,

"Come with me love."

She smiled and we started walking to the bus.

"What's wrong Hannah?" I asked while putting my arm around her shoulder.

"I don't know if I can tell you..."

"Why wouldn't you?"

"It's um.... complicated and a uh long story..."

She started to tear again. I wiped her eyes and looked into her eyes.

"It'll be okay...  You can tell me."

She started crying harder then hugged my neck. I hugged back.

"Th-tha-ank yo-o-ou!" She sobbed into my ear.

We went inside the bus and sat down in the den area.

"So?" I eagerly asked.

Hannah sighed and started to explained very quickly...

"Me and Shay were at an orphanage and she is wanted by the police in 2 different countries and she took me along and we traveled on foot to here so we have no one nowhere to go! We're out of money and we accidentally signalled the police so now they have an idea of where we are so I'm terrified! I don't know what to do now! I only have Shayla and that's why I was torn up when I lost her now you boys will probably hate us cuz we might get ya'll in major trouble!"

Hannah's lip started shaking then...

"I'm sorry! I'll go.."

"NO!" I yelled while grabbing her arm.
