Carson

"Don't panic, okay? It's...a long story. Once we get back to the hotel room I'll tell you." I quickly said, Bella's eyes widening as she nodded.

"Bad news guys. I can't go to the hotel room. Roman is taking me out to go to the park around the corner." Bell said. "See you later!"

Grabbing her bag, shoving a piece of toast in her mouth and leaving, we all stared after her.

"She's always so perky." Bella said, almost distastefully.

Sam laughed. "That's Bell for you."

"I'm nothing like her." Bella sighed, smiling and shaking her head. "Yet she claims for us to be twins."

"You two do have similar names." Anna laughed, stretching her arms.

I nodded along, but my mind was else where.

I missed my dad right now, more than anything.

*

-flashback-

"Daddy!" I cried. "Daddy where did you go?"

"A business trip sweetheart." He sadly said, bags prominent under his sunken eyes.

He swung me up into a tight hug. I was only four at the time.

"Don't ever go again. Mommy scares me." I sobbed, holding tightly to his jacket.

My father tensed up. "She scared you?"

"Yes! And she was mean- don't leave us again daddy!"

My dad had gone rigid. "Okay sweetheart. I won't." He stiffly replied. "Let's go in and see you're brother, Hhm?"

I nodded, and he set me down.

Sucking on my thumb and grabbing two of his fingers with my other hand, we walked in together.

Him scared, yet me delighted.

"Earth to Carson!" Anna shouted, waving a hand in front of my face.

Blinking, I shook myself out of a daze. "What? Oh, sorry."

Sam rolled her eyes. "Let's go back and explain everything to Bella, shall we?"

Nodding somberly, we all stood up and left the small buffet room.

It was silent in the elevator ride.

The doors opened on our floor, and there in front of us, was Zayn, Calum, Liam, Louis, and Ashton.

"You guys need to come quick." Zayn said. "There's been an accident."

"An accident?" Anna exclaimed. "What happened? Is everyone okay?"

Liam bit his lip. "For the most part, yeah. Just follow us."

Exchanging looks and then following after them, an uneasy feeling settled over me.

Swiftly opening the door, we followed the boys in.

I stopped in shock as I got a view of the room.

It was trashed, chairs flipped, bed covers ripped off, toilets clogged, sinks over flowing, etc.

"Same thing in 5SOS' s room." Louis said, coming up next to me. "But that's not the worst part."

"What's worse than this? You're rooms a mess. The paps will change this into something huge." Bella exclaimed.

"Read this." Harry appeared next to Louis handed me a piece of paper.

To: Carson and her friends

Think we couldn't find you?
Well think again.

A shiver ran down my spine.

"This is getting freaking creepy." I said, licking my lips nervously and running a hand through my hair. "It's really has to stop."

"No duh! Same exact note in our room. How are we gonna fix this? What are we going to do?" Ashton asked.

I shrugged, letting out a sigh. "I'll fix the note part. Meanwhile, you guys clean up. If excuse me, I swallowed hard, my nerves a mess, "I have a c-call to make."

Everyone stared after me as I left the room, searching for somewhere quiet to go.

Bella

I would be a liar if I said I wouldn't scared.

Yet I was happy I was finally accepted into a group.

So much, had already happened in the past 24 hours. Was their lives always like this?

Like a- like a...story?

"Why are we standing here?" Sam said, clapping her hands. "Let's spilt into teams and get cleaning. Ashton, Bella, and Anna, you go back to 5SOS's room. Chop chop! We don't have all day!"

Nodding our heads, we took off.

"Here, let's cut through our room." Anna suggested, shoving open the connecting door.

Running forward as she held the door open for us, I tumbled over something big.

A box. Delivered to Carson.

"Oh no." I breathed. "Get this out of here."

"We can't- we don't have time! We leave for our concert in two hours." Ashton gasped, helping me up and dragging me over to their door.

5SOS's room was worse, maybe cause they were closer to Carson.

They ran around in panicked circles, shouting, "OH NO OH NO OH NO!" Over and over again.

"Guys! Guys calm down!" Anna yelled. "Let's get this all cleaned up."

Shocked at her assertiveness, the boys nodded, and we quickly got ready to clean.

*
A half an hour later, toilets were unclogged, sinks were drained, beds were made, new pillows were purchased, and the floor was vacuumed, etc.

"I think we did a pretty good job guys." I said, looking around at the huge room.

"Yeah well, we kinda have to be at our concert in half and hour, and we have to be on stage in an hour..." Calum trailed off, looking at us nervously.

" I realize dipshit. Let's go." Anna jerked her finger towards the door.

It swung open, and in walked Carson, grim faced.

"How did it go?" I dared to ask, dread filling me.

Carson shook her head. "I'm sorry guys. I really am."
