Knee Socks (BWS)

Rain Dance

"I don't know why we even bothered trying to keep them apart."

"At the time it was meant to be worth the effort."

These voices were outside my bunk, I had my back to them. Sarah had rolled over in her sleep and was facing me. The best part about this bed was because it was so small it made it impossible for me not to be close to her. I nudged her gently to wake her. She blinked a few times before remembering where we were and smiling.

"The boys are standing right there." I whispered. "So we're pretending to be asleep."

"Ok." she whispered.

"They're awake, I can hear them." said Connor.

"I'd pull the covers off but I'm worried about what's under there." said James. Sarah sat up.

"Sex in a tour bus? James, have a little class." she said, jumping out of bed and rummaging through her suitcase. She pulled out a random t shirt and pulled it on.

"How'd you explain this then?" asked Tris, gesturing to the mark on her neck. Connor made a face at me and I blushed but Sarah just rolled her eyes.

"Tristan, honey, deal with it." she floated down the small staircase to the bathroom and all the boys turned to face me.

"Oh my God is that the time?" I said.

"What's the time then lover boy?" asked Con.

"Time to stop staring at Brad!" I said. "It was worth a try." Sarah came back up.

"Anyone want breakfast?" she asked.

Selma came in later that afternoon, a few hours before the show.

"Ok, boys after your show you have an interview with Shout magazine and Sarah, you've got an interview as well, mostly about hair but they might sneak a few questions about what it's like being Brads girlfriend so be prepared for that." she said, before strutting out of the bus.

"Hmmm, I wonder what I'm going to say about you" she said, pretending to be deep in thought. I smiled.

"Maybe you should talk about Harry Styles." I said. She gave me a flirty look and then laughed.

"I might say that he's a bit clingy and a terrible kisser." she said. I mock gasped.

"What? I thought we went through this yesterday." I said.

"Yeah well." she said.

"I see how it is." I said, pretending to storm off. She caught up with me.

"You know what I'd really say? I'd say that meeting Brad was the best thing that ever happened to me and even though we're so similar we're also really different. Every time he says he loves me I feel like the luckiest girl in the world because I'm the only one who gets to call him mine." she said. I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Really?" I said. She nodded.

"Well duh," she said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"I love you." I said and before she answered I kissed her. Our lips moved in synch for a minute before the boys all came in.

"Hey Brad do you need... oh." said Connor. I broke off.

"Hey." said Sarah.

"Hi, do you need anything from the shop?" he asked.

"Yeah, but I wanna come so I'll meet you outside." she said, grabbing her bag and running out of the bus.

"Brad, can you ever keep your lips to yourself?" asked Con but he was laughing. I felt myself blush.

"Yeah well," I said.
