Adopted by Motionless in White

~Underdog~

As the trio ate their lunch, they went back and forth with questions. Niall was asking about what his new life was going to be like and Chris and Ricky asking about who Niall was. "So, how much longer is your tour?" Niall hummed taking a drink of his soda.

 "Two more weeks. It will go by quick don't worry." Chris chuckled softly and leaned back. 

Ricky nodded "I think you will love our bass player." He laughed and looked at Chris. The tallest of the three nodded too. Niall also most choked on his drink. 

See, the thing was that Niall was gay. He was way to scared to tell anyone and was even more scared to tell anyone because he did not want to lose the only people who seemed to love him in a way. When Niall was internet surfing at the local library he stumbled across Motionless in White as he looked at pictures of goth boys. He payed the most attention to Ghost. He loved everything about the older male. How he dressed, how he acted, how he did his make up, and just everything. Ghost was some of the boys that helped Niall figure out he was gay. 

Niall swallowed the soda in his mouth and blushed "Yeah..he seems pretty awesome.." He nodded. 

Ricky chuckled softly "So, did you like learn about sex at all?" He leaned forwards. 

"Ricky!" Chris slapped the back of his head. 

"Ow! What! Dude you don't want a teenager going out into the world with not a slight knowledge of sex or anything." Ricky looked at his friend. 

Niall chuckled softly "I only know what I want to know..mostly about guys and stuff. I don't really.....care.....about...girls..." He started to trail off. 

"Well its good to know everything. We will find a way to teach you that's not weird." Chris laughed and looked at his son. 

"Will fans know about me? Will they want to meet me and talk to me and stuff?" Niall leaned forwards. 

"Well, they will know about you, but I don't know if you will be talking to them. If it is after a show and we have a little meet and greet thing yeah maybe, you just have to stay by my side. I love our fans, but I don't trust some people." Chris smiled softly. 

That was the moment. 

Niall's heart slowly came back to life after all these years if never truly feeling love. His eyes started to water a bit. "You....care about me...that much..." He pulled his sleeves over his hands to make little paws. 

Chris got up and moved his chair so he was sitting next to the pastel goth boy. "Why wouldn't I...I know we just met, but I see so much of me in you and I just want the best for you kid...of course I care about you.." Chris wrapped his arm around his son, who leaned into his side. He closed his eyes and nodded 

"Thank you..." He said softly. 

Chris chuckled and rubbed his back. "No need to..."

Niall wiped his eyes and looked up and Chris with a wide smile. "Now, we need to head back to the bus before they leave with out us." The singer patted the younger's back and got up. Niall got up and threw his trash away. He walked back to Chris and Ricky. Chris calls an uber and they walk out of the mall.

When they got back to the bus Ghost was reading a book about murders, Vinny and Ryan were playing each other in a hockey video game, and Balz was looking at his phone. 

As Balz heard the door to the bus open and close he looked up from his phone "Holy shit balls, why is there a pastel boy on the bus?" He pointe at Niall who laughed a bit. 

Ghost looked up from his book "Cute, this the new kid you talked about?" He closed his book and leaned back. 

"Yes he is, everyone this is Niall Motionless. He is my new son and he is going to be with us for the rest of tour." Chris wrapped his arm around Niall's neck. 

"Cool name, it means passionate." Ghost smiled and looked at the teen. "I know." He grinned "It can also mean clouds." he brushed his white hair behind his ear. Ghost laughed and nodded. 

"Cool hair? You bleached your eye brows?" Balz asked. 

"Nope, all natural. I'm albino." He grinned more. 

"You just go a little you, huh Chris?" Vinny looked at his band mate. 

"Hey! He is a great kid..and yes he is a mini me." Chris messed up Niall's hair. 

Niall laughed and fixed his hair. He was confused as what everyone meant when they said that he was a mini Chris. Chris and him did not look the same. Niall's features were more soft and Chris's were more strong. Chris had jet black hair and Niall had snow white hair. His skin was covered in tattoos and Niall's was pale as can be. He was really tall and Niall was kind of short. He wore all black and Niall wore pink and blue. 

"Well, I'm Balz, but you can call me Josh if you want to." He smiled and waved a bit. 

"I'm Ghost or Devin. I don't really care what name you use." Ghost grinned. 

Vinny got up and walked to the fridge "I'm Vinny. I have no cool name." He laughed. 

Ryan waved "I'm Ryan...that's all." He sipped a water.

 "And you will meet the crew and other people later." Chris smiled. "Come on, let's find you some place to sleep." 

Chris tried to find a place for Niall to sleep. Since all the bunks were filled and the back area was filled with the bands sweaty gross clothes, Niall was going to have to sleep on the couch. He was not upset at all...It was a comfy couch. He would just be nervous of what he woke up to in the mornings...
