On Tour With One Direction

Chapter 9 - Get Ready

Ashley's pov.
I jumped up from my bed when I heard a loud noise, "COME ON PEOPLE, GET UP, GET UP, GET UP" Emma, Nicki, Louis and Liam sang at the top of their lungs while Niall played the guitar, Brooklyn and Mia started jumping up on my bed causing me to bounce around, I looked over at Harry's bed, Louis was banging on a silver dish with a wooden spoon, how he got that I have no idea, I don't understand how Harry still can be fast asleep! Zayn and Niall where giggling, they went into the bathroom and came out with a bucket of freezing cold water, I jumped up out of my bed smirking and ran over to Niall where he handed me the bucket, everyone stared at me waiting for me to throw the water onto Harry, Louis and Zayn started backing away so that they don't get wet, I closed my eyes and started counting 1... 2....3.... I poured the cold water all over Harry and he jumped up shocked he looked around, everyone was laughing, Niall, Brooklyn and Mia actually hit the floor because they were laughing so hard, he then looked at me, I just stood there like a statue for about 5 seconds before I threw the bucket to the ground and ran as fast as I could out of the room, Harry got up and started chasing me, I ran through the hallway and into the lounge but as I was heading for the doors I felt two strong, wet arms snake around my waist, pick me up and spin me around "and where do you think you going?" Harry asked playfully
"Out there" I replied pointing to the door, when Harry finally let go of me and put me on the ground, I realised that he was in nothing but his boxers, all of his tattoos and abs where visible, Harry caught me staring at his arms and stomach area and started smirking "you know take a picture, it lasts longer" I rolled me eyes "yeah whatever, listen sorry about the water" I said holding my arms up for a hug which he accepted wrapping arms around me, "oh it's ok, I'm going to get my revenge though" he said with a cheeky smile on his face, I was about to reply but I was stopped by a strong, deep male voice shouting my name, i think it came from the entrance, me and Harry both turned our heads around and my smile faded when I saw who it was "dad?" I quickly pushed Harry off me
"Hi sweetie" my dad hugged me but soon stopped and looked at me "my god your wet" he wiped his shirt
"Yeah, I poured water all over Harry" I explained
"Harry?" He asked curiously with a bit of anger in his voice
"Ugh... me" Harry raised his hand, my dad looked at him in disapproval and I rolled my eyes, "well it's nice to see you've made some new friends" he gave Harry a fake smile while shaking his hand "so what have you been up t-"
"Why are you here dad?" I asked cutting him off
"can't a dad come and visit his lovely daughter before she has to go to work?" He asked innocently
"Not when he leaves his family and hasn't spoken to them in several years and ignores all her calls!" I replied, "don't you dare talk to me like that!" He shouted, about to loose his temper, I stared at him for a while and he loudly sighed and pointed to the hallway "Harry could you please excuse us, we have to talk" he said angrily not taking his eyes off me, the last time he was angry he started throwing things around and shouting
"Sure" Harry replied, I really didn't want to be left alone with him so as Harry was walking behind me I grabbed his wrist to stop him and my dad couldn't see that I had hold of him "did you hear me son? I said leave" my dad started to get angrier, Harry glanced at me and back at my dad "no" he replied understanding I didn't want him to go
"excuse me?" He asked taking a step further which made me take a step back
"Look dad we have to go get ready so... Can we talk another time?" I asked politely
"Ok, sure" I gave me and Harry a fake smile and he walked out the door, I turned to Harry
"What was that?" He asked
"It's a long story" I put my hand on my head and began walking to our room "we got time" he said running up beside me, I closed the door and sat on the bed, I let out a deep breath as Harry looked down at me waiting for me to start talking "he divorced my mother and walked out on us when I was 15" I started "he never came back, we tried calling him and texting him but he just ignored us and when we went to visit him, he told us that he didn't love us anymore and that he didn't want to be our father and have anything to do with us anymore and for us to never come back, but when I ignored him and went back and looked through the window... I saw him with a baby in his hands, he was bouncing the baby and then a beautiful woman came up and kissed him, then I realised that he didn't want this family because he had a new one and he completely forgot about us, now 4 years later his back and I'm wondering why?" Someone flung the door open so it hit the wall, "hey guys come on get ready we're going to our first concert, you two have 1 hour, go go go!!" Nicki jumped around like mad.

We were all dressed and in the car going to our first concert, this is going to be exiting, we arrived just in time to practise on the stage and mess around while waiting to go on.
"Five minutes" a woman with a headset around her neck called out, we could hear the screaming girls crying out for One Direction and we heard a few of our names which made us smile, everyone was rushing round and making sure everything was perfect and we all looked perfect, we could hear the crowd counting down "10...9...8...7...6...5...4"
"You girls ready?" Liam asked as he could see how nervous and anxious we were, we all nodded our heads in response
"3...2...1!!!" Everyone screamed and crew members were motioning to the boys to go onto the stage, first they were opening up and singing a few songs, then it's us and near the end all of us go up. We could see backstage how much fun the boys were having and how they were just being themselves, they really inspire us.
