"It's the first show, who's excited" Corbyn asked running around the venue

"You remember the plan right" sky asked as she pulled me aside

"Yeah" I answered walking away

The plan was for me to sing for her. It's actually really tricky. They'll give her the right mic and I'll get one that doesn't work. Before she goes up there we'll switch a and I'll hide in her dressing room and sing for her while she lip sings.

"Are you okay" jack asked me

Jack has started questioning me even more. Which is scary because he can't find out what's going on.

"Yeah, everything is fine" I smiled and walked out of the venue

"Hey Mia" zach ran to me

"Uh hey" I said

"We're going to hang out until the show starts, you wanna come?" He asked

" um, no thank you, I'll just spend the day on the bus, I don't really feel like going out" I answered

"Ok, let me know if you change your mind, I'll text where we're at" he said running back to sky

I walked to the bus and got in my bunk. I started writing then heard a noise outside.

"Hey"  jack said as I peaked my head out

"Hey, I thought you went with the rest" I told him

"I was going to, but decided to stay with you" he smiled

"Wanna watch a movie?" He asked

I got out of my bunk and nodded my head. If I was being honest I really miss them too. But sky is like a new me, everything I do she does. She started wearing hoodies and leggings and she finally learned how to do her braids.

We sat down on the couch and watched two movies till they finally came back, well all except Zach and sky.

"Have you seen my phone?" I asked jack

"No, I can help you look" he answered as the rest sat down in the couch.

I looked in the bathroom and it wasn't there. As I was going to my bunk to see if I left it there, I see jack with my notebook in his hands.

"What's this?" He asked.

"It's sky's songs, she asked me to hold them so she wouldn't lose them" I lied.

"Oh, well um here's your phone" he said handing it the me

"Thanks" I grabbed it as well as the notebook.

We all walked back into the venue to get ready for the show. When the boys were ready I went to sky dressing room.

"Are you ready" she asked me

"Yeah" I answered quietly

"No one better be in here when you sing, got it"

"I know"I said

"Here's the working mic" she gave it me walking out of the room.

I stood in the room patiently waiting for Zach to stop talking and for the music to start.

"Hey Mia, you don't wanna come watch the show with us" jack walked in

"No, I'm fine here" I said hiding the mic behind my back.

"Whats up with Mia, really what's wrong, and I'm not taking nothing as an answer" he said

"Jack, nothings wrong, you need to go and watch sky and Zach sing with the rest of them" I told him knowing I have to sing soon.

"No mia, don't you miss us, we were so close, you were no longer shy with us, now you're acting like we just met. So no I'm not leaving this room till you tell what's wrong" he insisted

"Jack please, go" I begged

Zach stopped talking  and soon I'll have to start.

"Mia, I'm not going anywhere just tell me what's wrong" he said getting closer.

I stayed silent and he soon wrapped his arms around me.

"You can talk to me, just trust me Mia, please" he begged.

I have to start singing now.

"He knows
Dirty secrets that I keep
Does he know it's killing me?
He knows, he knows" I sang as jack backed away from me

"D-d-does he know
Another's hands have touched my skin
I won't tell him where I've been
He knows, he knows, he knows" I continued singing while he stared at me with disbelief.

"What- how- I-" he said as Zach began singing.

I covered the mic. "Look if you leave now and don't tell anyone what just happened I'll explain everything, all of it, please just leave" I begged

He continued to stare at me.

"I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know (no, no, no)
Can't seem to let you go, can't seem to keep you close
(Hold me close)
Can't seem to let you go, can't seem to keep you close
(You know I didn't mean it, though)
Tell me where you've been lately
Tell me where you've been lately
(Just hold me close)
Tell me where you've been lately
Tell me where you've been lately
(Don't, don't, don't, don't let me go)
Can't seem to keep you close, can't seem to let you go
(I didn't mean it, though)
I know you didn't mean it, though
I know you didn't mean it, though
(I don't wanna let you go)
Tell me you didn't mean it, though
Tell me you didn't mean it, though (no, no, no)
(Can't seem to let you go, seem to let you go)
I know you didn't mean it, though. I wanna know you mean it though
(Hold me close)
I know you didn't mean it though
I know you didn't mean it though
I can't seem to let you go, can't seem to hold you close" I sang

"Jack please go" I continued begging

He walked out of the room and closed the door. While I stood there, in the middle of the room, singing.
