Broken Strings

Chapter Thirteen

"No fair you get ice cream." I pout lying on the couch.

Hayden sticks his tongue out at me as he takes another spoon of ice cream. He picks up his phone and types a message in.

"Go get another spoon." The iPhone says.

So on his second day of silence we found the speak button on his phone. Standing up I walk over to our little tour bus kitchen. I take a spoon out and go back to my silent companion. The Faults had decided to go to one of our interviews today since Hayden couldn't talk. They had been talking for the last fifteen minutes.

"Who's the messiest out of all of you?" The interviewer smiles. Kirsty I think her name was.

"Luke." I nod as the three boys point to the golden haired idiot.

"I'm not even going to argue."

"What are your favourite animals?"

These questions were so weird. She'd obviously gotten them off fans from twitter but come on I'm sure she can find some with a little depth to them.

"Lion." Jayden.

"Dogs." Josh.

"Koala's." Fletcher.

"Kitty's." Luke tries to keep a straight face.

He really does. But when Josh punches him in the arm he breaks out into a fit of giggles. I was going to kill him.

"Speaking of kitty's there's been a lot of talk with you boys regarding romance."

I roll my eyes but can't escape the fact that my cheeks have gone red. I've seen the rumours. Even read some fanfic. I shall not be making that mistake again. Shuddering at the thought Hayden looks at me.

"Fanfic." I explain. Hayden shudders as well. It's bloody creepy when you are involved.

"Has there?" Jayden raises his eyebrow. Like he hasn't been on twitter 24/7.

"Not so much with you Jayden." Kirsty laughs. Jayden sighs and sits back in his seat.

"Then who?" Luke asks.

There's an evil grin on his face. He knows he's going to be asked about our show last night. The boy drove me crazy last night. In more ways than one. Thank God Josh and Jayden saved me when they did. I don't know what would have happened if they didn't.

"You mostly Luke. Our sorces say that there was a lot of chemistry between you and Esther Hills last night on stage. Is there something happening between you two?" Kirsty looks like a kid in a candy store.

She is sitting on the edge of her seat waiting for Luke to answer. To be honest so am I. Luke sighs looking at the floor and shakes his head. When he looks back up his smile is still the same.

"No there's nothing happening." Luke informs her.

I feel a little hurt by the answer but pay no attention as Kirsty starts talking again.

"You're not lying to me are you Luke?"

"We've made a promise to our fans to never lie." Fletcher points out quickly. Kirsty turns to him with a large grin.

"Ok. So Fletcher, have you got your eye on anyone?" Kirsty asks.

Hayden and I both stiffen. Hayden turns to me with a raised eyebrow.

"I know." I tell him. Hayden turns pale and looks back to the telly.

"Maybe." Fletcher grins at her.

He's playing it so cool. Looking at the rest of the boys I notice they are acting cool as well. Luke is even swinging on his chair.

"Do we know them?"
