The Big Beach Jam

After Sarah had got off the phone she jumped off the bed and came into the living room.

"Ugh, I hate skins. Can we put something else on?" she asked. Then Selma came in.

"Big Beach Bash today, but first you have a meet and greet at the venue. Sarah, they've been tweeting about asking your advice for hair and beauty and stuff so your included in this one. Tamara, your a bit less well known, mainly because of Sarah and Brad, so we're just gonna keep you backstage if that's ok." she said. Tamara nodded.

"It's fine. We can't all be dating The Vamps." she said, quickly shooting James a look. Selma looked confused but brushed it off.

"Obviously not all the fans have taken to it as well as we'd hoped but if it doesn't bother you then it doesn't bother me." said Selma.

"Nah, I'm not bothered. It's just envy." said Sarah. Selma smiled.

"Right, now get dressed and go." said Selma. I put on my Arctic Monkeys T-shirt and some black skinny jeans. Sarah put on some high waisted floral shorts with a black cropped top.

"Shall we get your hair done then? Oh my God Tris, what's the humidity done?" she tried not to laugh at the state of Tris's hair, it's terrible in humidity. He sighed.

"I don't even know." he said. She grabbed her little bag with hair stuff in it and sprayed his hair with something.

"Humidity's a bitch, this spray is like anti-humidity. It's what I use in hot places." she said, brushing it through. She blow dried and styled it.

"Thanks, that looks great." he said. She repeated a similar thing for each of us and then brushed hers through and put a flowery head band of black roses on the top. She quickly did her make up and jumped off the bus.

The fans were waiting for us outside the venue, chanting the words to can we dance. There was a few hundred fans waiting for us, screaming.

"This is a little strange." I said. Tamara was just putting the touch ups to James bronzer powder thing and laughing at something he said to her. He took the brush off her and brushed it on her nose.

"Trames is so cute, I'm gonna cry." said Tris. I climbed out the bus and saw Sarah taking selfies with the fans sand answering questions. They all screamed when I came out and cameras flashed. I took a few selfies with fans and spent most of the time laughing.

"I'm sorry girls, but we need to go in and meet the people who paid. You guys got lucky, you got all this for free but some people actually paid and we need to see them now." said Tris. I waved and blew kisses to the fans and Sarah did the same.

"Wow, so many death threats in so short time." she said. "Half of them loved me and loved us and half of them were shouting 'BITCH BRAD IS MINE!" at me." she said, laughing.

"Your the only one I want to call mine." I said. Sarah smiled and all the boys went 'awwww Sadley' really loudly. She quickly kissed me.

"Your such a romantic sometimes." she said. I shrugged. Selma came in.

"Alright guys, let's meet some fans." she said. Tamara was still on the bus but the rest of us all filed in to sit at a table. A group of girls came in and hugged all of us and told us that they loved us and couldn't wait for the album.

"Thanks guys, the album should be out by April." I said. A couple of them went up to Sarah and said she looked really nice. She smiled and started talking about clothes with a few of them. Most of them came up to us, so I signed and posed and chatted to fans for about 2 hours before we got released for lunch.

James pov

I love being in this band, the fans are so lovely, if a bit shall we say obsessed. I had too many marriage proposals to count. We headed back to the bus and I got there ahead of the others. Tamara was clearly making the most of being 'home alone' as it were, MTV was on, music up loud and she was dancing around the bus like a lunatic.

She looked so beautiful when she thinks no one can see her.

That makes me sound like a stalker. Oh well.

I came in and as soon as she heard the door she jumped onto the sofa.

"Oh hey James." she said casually. I laughed.

"Hey, nice moves there by the way." I said.

"You did not see my 'home alone' dancing?" she said. "Fuck!"

"Aye language. And if it helps I think you look super hot when your dancing. Especially that jumpy one. You might have to teach me that one." she hid her face, but peeped her eyes out.

"You really think so?" she said. I kissed her quickly.

"I know so."

Brads pov

We got back to the bus and James was deeply engrossed in conversation with Tamara. I came up from behind Sarah and wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Connor? Is that you? This is to risky, Brads only outside, he could see us." she said jokingly. I gasped.

"I am shocked." I said.

"I kid, I kid." she said. I laughed.

"I hope so." I said. We ate quickly before Sarah did all our hair and Tamara attacked us with brushes. Showtime was nearly upon us.

"You guys excited?" asked Tam, who was putting some lip thingy on Tris.

"Yeah, this is by far the biggest show of like forever so I'm really excited," said Connor. Sarah was playing with her hair like she did when she was thoughtful.

"What you thinking about?" I asked.

"You." she said. I smiled and Selma came in.

"Your booked into a hotel tonight so you can take a break from the bus and so the bus can take a break from you. Brad with James, the girls, and Con and Tris." Me and James looked at each other and mouthed 'swap'.

"Sarah, swap with James?" I said. She nodded.

"Ok," she said, before carrying on her intense conversation with Connor about Davy Jones.

*The show*

We walked onto the stage and the fans were screaming and Sarah was backstage smiling at me. We opened with Can We Dance before I said:

"Hi, we are The Vamps and your a fantastic audience!! This next song is called Risk It All, and I'd like to dedicate it to my girlfriend Sarah. She found the lyrics to this song on our first date and since then I like to think of this as 'her song'. Sarah, thank you for the best few months ever and I love you. This ones for you." I said. Looking backstage her eyes were filled with tears but she was smiling.

"Shall we bring her on?" said James.

"Scream if you want to bring her on." said Connor. The place erupted.

"Come on out Sarah." said Tristan. I ran off and grabbed her hand, pulling her on.

"They want to see you." I said. She allowed me to pull her out.

You just know

Sometimes you feel it in your bones

Though we've heard that hearts can still be wrong

Something's telling me your the one

I just know

Even if I had a heart of stone

You could make it bleed all on your own

You could break it but I hope you won't

And so on. Sarah was standing next to me, mouthing the words cuz she hates her singing voice. When the song was over I quickly kissed her lips and all the fans screamed.

"He's such a romantic." she said. I laughed. She waved at the fans before going off stage. We carried on with the show, playing Last Night, Oh Cecelia, On the Floor, Another World and She Was The One. I got off stage with such an adrenaline rush. We all piled into the car to go the hotel.
