Chapter Three

June 28, 2015

I reach for my phone,wallet,and keys then jump out of the car.

5:30

I speed walk across the pavement to reach the large building in front of me. I stand in front of the face scanner like Ryan had told me to do so in his instructions. It makes a beeping sound then the door clicks, swinging open.

Access granted

I make my way down the long hallway, the walls were red, almost like the color of blood, then along the bottom there was a dark wood that looked like it was stained brown. There are a few doors on each side of the walls which I'm guessing belong to each of the band members or crew. I turn down another few hallways until I bump into Ryan. "Great, your finally here."

My eyes go wide. "What do you mean, am I late??" I ask worriedly.

"No, your perfectly on time. I was just worried you would bail last minute!" I can tell he has a nervous tone in his voice, like that had happened before with someone he hired.

"Well, these men will take your bags to the bus you were assigned, which I texted you." Ryan says looking over my shoulder as I navigate to his text. The men beside me pick up my bags and walk off with them.

Bus 3

"Who's on bus three with me?" I ask curiously. He scans his list with the tip of his pen glancing at each name. "Well your on a bus with most of the managers of certian things such as photography, lights, stage directors, etc..." I nod my head, it seems pretty nice. "How many other buses are there?" I ask, wondering if I was being to needy with the questions.

"Around ten to twelve." He replies.

Why are there so many buses?

I keep my last question to myself, because considering they are one of the biggest boy bands they most likely needed a huge crew. I hear a door shutting from down the hall behind me, so I whip my head around to see who it is. Ryan turns his head as well, then I see him smiling. "Hannah, this is Evie Grace, the lights manager." He introduces me to her. "Hi I'm Hannah O'Conner, It's nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too!" She replies with a cheeky smile. She has long black silky hair that reaches halfway down her back. Her lips were a semi red tone and she had a small mole, barely bigger than a freckle on her right cheek. She was all together a beautiful person, I was beginning to wonder why she didn't become a model, and chose to work here instead.

Evie your needed on Bus 3, we will be leaving shortly.

I hear her walkie-talkie go off, and get startled slightly. "Well that's my cue to go." She says. "It was amazing meeting you." I reply with a nod as I watch her carefully walk off to the door to the buses. Another door opens across from where Evie had come out of. Out of the door comes a woman who had golden blonde hair and a camera around her neck.

I watch her approach us and begin to announce herself before Ryan has a chance. "Hi! I'm Aven, Aven Brooks." She looks more happy than Evie had been when we were first introduced.

"I'm Hannah O'Conner." I reply slightly shyly compared to her energy, "You must be new here." She says to me. "Yeah I'm the new Clothing designer." I reply, slowly warming up to her. "Hope you don't quit on us!" She says in a sarcastic tone but sounded somewhat serious.

"We have gone through about four in the past two years, they just keep leaving.. its odd, maybe the boys are to much t-" Her words are cut off by something, I turn and look over at Ryan who is glaring her down.
