The stuffed bear that Niall won Asher at the amusement park is on the side.

After that question, we rode the wheel a couple more times. Talked a bit more. but I totally avoided the question. He didn't push it though. There was a time when the workers didn't let anyone on the rides. Soon people started to leave. But we stayed. Then the fireworks went off. I was amazed. Fireworks are so pretty, and he laughed then so did I. Turns out, while everyone was either enjoying the show or leaving, people were shutting the arcades, rides, and food. The park was pretty much almost shut off with the exception of the clean up crew. Paparazzi swarming around us once we stepped foot out the park onto the lot. Asking questions as we held hands. Niall soon took me back to my tour bus. The ride was short, filled with music and constant small chatter. When we did get to the arena, the show had been done for an hour.

"Ash," he asked.

"Mmh hmm?"

"Don't interrogate them."

"I won't." I promised. He smiled, giving me an awkward side hug. I came out and walked toward the back. Waving at Niall as he left. I soon found my way to the back and onto the bus. They were all passed out and snoring. Giggling I got to my bunk and texted Niall.

Asher:
Thanks for the prank. How long do you think it will take to publish?

Niall:
A week tops. Or in five days or more.

Asher:
Two days. $10

Niall:
Don't be disappointed.

Asher:
Nit nite Nialler. I'm not gonna be.

Niall:
Suit yourself. Night.

I turned off my phone, leaving it to charge. Then slept.

Like always I woke up first. It was 8:14 and I groaned. At least it wasn't at 6am this time. Just cause I woke up, doesn't mean that I'm getting out of bed. Instead, I got my phone and opened up twitter and notes. Back and fourth, putting in twitter name, after twitter name. I followed them. Like I promised. Once that was done, news feed. Boom, tweet after tweet after tweet. The girls posted our pictures, and it had already been retweeted over a thousand times. Each. Those girls work fast. Amazingly.

Asher:
We're getting popular. Nasher is blowing up on twitta!

Niall:
Yeah I can tell. But that doesn't mean you're going to win the bet Evans.

Asher:
You'll see Horan.

I turned off my phone then. Now you know my last name. Asher Evans. I honestly wonder how fast the paps are working to put yesterday in public. Like are they bees all working for this one queen? I wanna go to their head quarters now. I just want to see.

I think it's about time for lucky charms, but I want to know what it looks like outside. Opening my window bunk the teeniest bit, the desert sun hits me.

"I'm blinded!" I yell. Have a spasm, and fall onto the floor hissing. Damn. Two other voices groan.

"Asher! It's to damn early for you to have already fallen off of something!" Luke groans.

"Well maybe you should learn how to be a heavy sleeper like Calum and Michael."

"I'm up to. But I knew better than to look outside first thing." Calum says making an effort to face me.
