Secluded

Chapter 14

Today we have all just been lounging around and chilling, most of us have been sleeping.

Tour ends in a week and it has been so amazing, without these guys I wouldn't be where I am today. They mean the world to me.

"Guys." I say, making them all look up at me.

"You know I love you right?" I say.

"Aww Lexi." Michael says, putting his arm round me and pulling me in for a hug.

"We love you too." Ashton says, coming over and joining the hug. Calum and Luke join and we all stay like that for a minute.

"Guys." I say.

"Yeah?" Calum says.

"I kinda can't breathe right now." I say weakly, laughing and they all bundle of me.

"Why are you telling us this?" Luke asks.

"Because you all mean the world to me and without you I wouldn't be where I am today." I say.

"Awwrh Lexi." Calum says.

"I just love you all so much." I say. Michael still has his arm around me, he gently pulls me onto his lap and wraps his arms around my waist. I lean my head on his shoulder.

"We love you too Lexi." Calum says.

"We love you lots and lots." Luke says, blowing a kiss, which makes me smile.

That night we all lay in our bunks, I lay in Michaels with him. We are all asleep when I get a rush of heat run down my body.

"Mikey." I whisper, shaking him.

"Mmyeah?" He mumbles, rubbing his eyes.

"Can you smell burning?" I ask.

"Yeah." He sits up, opening the curtain to reveal bright orange flames surround the bunks. I scream, backing up against the wall.

"Oh god." Michael says.

"Guys!" Luke shouts from above us.

"Luke!" Calum shouts from across us.

"Where's Ashton?" Michael asks.

"I'm down here!" Ashton says, from below us.

"Shit." Michael says, the fire alarm starts blasting throughout the bus. I put my finger in my ears and stay in the corner.

"Guys I think we can get out through the kitchen." Luke says, worry filling his tone.

"Okay." Calum says.

"I'm gonna go for it." Luke says.

"Be careful." I whisper, closing my eyes.

All I hear is the sound of Luke running down the bus to the kitchen, and the rising flames.

"Guys I'm in the kitchen! You need to hurry it's spreading!" He shouts.

"Guys I can't get out! I'm surrounded!" Ashton yells from the bottom bunk, oh god. I hate fire. It's horrible. I'm sweating, my throat burns.

"Alexis we need to go okay?" Michael says, trying to pull my hands away.

"I-I can't." I stutter.

"You can because I know you can." He says, I can tell he's trying to stay calm for me.

I see Calum drop from his bunk to the floor and run to the kitchen.

"Ashton I'm coming okay." I hear Calum's faint voice.
