(Mya's POV; do I need to keep putting this here)
Dayton, Ohio. The place of the next show. I slowly opened my eyes. I looked around at the bunks and everyone's sleeping forms. We weren't even halfway through the tour and I still couldn't believe that I was actually here. I was used to the tour life but I still can't believe that this was all actually happening. I knew my life wasn't normal but I never imagined something like this would ever happen to someone like me. Maybe it was fate. Maybe it was luck. I did know that it's a once and a lifetime experiences. And I was enjoying every moment of it.
I still talked to my mom every now and then though We haven't spoken in a couple of days. The tour life felt so normal to me and Marley. When it was over, going's back to our normal lives back home would be odd. No more wakings up early, always having somewhere to be, always on the road. It would just be me, Marley and my mom.
The boys were really starting to feel like close friends. We knew a lot about them and they knew a lot about us. Jeff and I had grown closer and we were starting to kinda "experiment." We would hang out, just the two of us. We basically were just seeing if there truly was something there between us and if there was, if it would work. If we could work. How did I feel? I didn't know. Jeff's a wonderful guy and all but was I ready for a new relationship?
When we pulled into the venue, everyone got up and got dressed. As the crew got everything unpacked and the guys got ready for sound check, Avery, Marley and I made our way to the floor seats to observe. Sound check went great and before we knew it, it was time to start the show. The boys got ready, we said a quick prayer, then sent the guys out.
"Have fun you guys!" Marley cheered.
"We always do." Duncan agreed.
"You guys are gonna do great!" I said.
"We alway do." Michael replied.
They guys hoped on stage and the show began. Marley and I had grown to really like watching the shows from backstage. We were able to see the audience and how they interacted with the guys. We would able to see their facial expressions and see who was having a meaningful experience and who was just having fun.
We were able to see how into performing the guys got. Marley and I could pinpoint at what songs and at what moments the guys would close thier eyes or would sing along but not into the mics. Just to themselves.
As the show came to a closing, Avery, Marley and I went ahead and made our way back to the bus. The guys had a meet and greet after the show and it was already pretty late. While we waited for the boys, we took turnes showering and getting ready for bed. Finally the guys showed up and followed suit.
"Good show tonight,guys." Avery complimented.
"Thanks." Michael replied. "That meet and greet lasted longer than we thought."
"How many people were there?" marley asked.
"More than there usually are." Jeff answered.
We stayed up a for a while, laughing and talking. We shared stories, told jokes, and just acted like normal group of friends. Suddenly, my phone tang. I motioned for everyone to quiet down then answered.
"Hi, is this Mya Atkins?" The voice on the other line asked. It was a woman and she sounded nervous.
"Yes." I answered.
"I'm calling from the Parkridge East Hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee." The woman continued. "If it's possible, we need to you come to the hospital as soon as possible. It about you mother..."
As I listened to the woman speak, her words became more and more drowned out. I felt my heart speed up and my breath quickened. I felt my phone slip from my hand and fall to the floor. The world around me disappeared. I couldn't grasp what the woman just told me.
My mom was in the hospital...
She had tried to kill herself...
