What happens when Ellie Aito opens for Why Don't We's 8 Letters tour??
Okay so the way I'm writing this book:
I'm going to follow the Why Don't We's 8 letters summer tour dates and base the story around that.
I don't know what tour life is like so p...
We finished sound check and it was only a few minutes before the show. We did the little chant and I was back out on stage, singing and dancing my heart out.
Then it was the guys turn while I got changed into a different red outfit that the night before.

Soon enough, they all came off stage to get changed as well. I walk back out on stage when they call me out.
While Daniel explains what we're doing he stops for a second.
"Also can we just take a moment to acknowledge these amazing pants Ellie's wearing?" Daniel Says and the crowd cheers.
I can feel myself going red.
"Yeah you did not show us this outfit, those pants are fire" Zach says.
"Oh wow thank you!! These pants also have big pockets which is a blessing!! Ammiright ladies?" I say towards the crowd and they all cheer.
We start our mashup and then finish our mashup. Everything seems to go by in a blur and by the time I realize what's happening the concerts finished.
We all head back to the bus and only Jonah and jack go to sleep. The rest of us stay up for various reasons.
Zach and Corbyn were watching a movie and Daniel was in the back working on some ideas that he had.
I was in the back with him, writing things down in a notebook and humming some different tunes and melodies. I was also afraid that I was going to have the same nightmare again.
The slow rumble of the bus was very calming and reassuring. I leaned my head against the window, thinking about some song ideas and concepts.
"Hey are you okay? You seem tired" Daniel Says. I look up and he has his headphones around his neck.
"Oh umm yeah I'm a little tired but I don't think I'll be able to sleep" I say.
"Mmmm Yeah I usually never get sleep on tour either. Gotta stay on the grind" he says with a small laugh.
There's an awkward silence and we slowly go back to what we were doing.
I take a break and scroll through Instagram on my phone to see that I'm getting tagged in certain....videos.
Some people are shipping Daniel and I and some are sending me hate. It's fine I guess, I know I have to deal with it but I can't help but believe some things are true.
"Hey Daniel?" I say, getting his attention.
He turns around and smiles at me.
"How did you...deal with hate?" I ask him and he immediately frowns.
"Oh no, are you getting a lot of hate? I'm so sorry Ellie"
"No no it's okay and obviously not your fault but, I don't know sometimes I just hate the fact that people despise me"
"Oh man, well my advice is to just listen to people that matter to you. Who cares about them right? They don't know you like I do because if they did, they wouldn't be saying those things" Daniel Says.
"Yeah you're right, I'm being stupid"
"No don't say that! You're not being stupid! It's completely valid to have your feelings hurt but you just have to know your own self worth" he says.
I sigh and nod.
"Hey maybe we should get to sleep" Daniel says quietly. He reaches out and touches my arm.
"Yeah I think it's time" I say, standing up.
I brace myself for the nightmares.
