I woke up in my bunk and sighed. My back ached a little cause I'm so use to my soft cushy bed, not a very hard firm bunk. I pushed the curtains open and rolled out. I grabbed my clothes for the day and headed to the bathroom. I knocked on the door to make sure no one was in there before I opened it. I closed the door and looked down realizing there was no lock. I sighed changing very quickly so no one would walk in on me. I pulled my long hair up into a topknot and did my usually routine of makeup. I added on a deep red lipstick and smiled at the look. I took a photo and sent it to Charlie. He quickly texted back saying gorgeous. I smiled and walked out of the bathroom to my bunk to put my clothes away. I felt something grabbed my ankle and I jumped but let of a scream. I looked down to see a hand as I kicked the hand off hearing someone laugh. Ryan emerged from the bunk laughing shaking his head as others quickly jumped out to the scream.

" I'm sorry but I have to do it to the newbies. Every time " he laughed as I just shook my head and let out a chuckle.

" well you got me. " he nodded as I felt and hand on my shoulder as I turned to see Chris just wearing his boxers showing his heavily tattooed body. I blushed slightly and looked up to him.

" you ok?"

" yea I'm good. Ryan grabbed my ankle and scared the shit out of me. He's lucky my body was too tired to do my actual reaction which would've ended with my foot in your face" I laughed as he nodded letting out a small laugh.

" yea it's Ryan's tradition to grab the newbies ankles since he always sleeping on the bottom bunks. " he laughed as I nodded and he crawled back in the bunk. I grabbed my laptop and heading out the the lounge and started working on some more photos.

I woke up in my bunk confused. I got out as everyone was in the lounge playing a game on the Xbox. Ryan turned and smiled.

" hey sleepy head. " I raised an eyebrow as Chris looked over and smiled.

" how did I get in my bunk?" I asked as he nodded.

" when I came out from my bunk I found you had fallen asleep on your laptop so I picked you up and put you in your bunk so we wouldn't wake you. " He said as I smiled as I took a seat on the couch.

" that was sweet of you " I said simply.

" do you wanna play?" I heard Ricky ask pointing to the game.

" I don't know how " I laughed as Chris shook his head and started to explain the game and how to play. I started playing and kicking everyone's ass. I beat Ricky as he huffed loudly as I giggled.

" why did I even ask for you to play this game?" He questioned himself as everyone laughed.

" i don't know. I guess I'm a natural" I said as he nodded sighing.

I walked from back stage on the stage looking out to where the crowd will be tonight. I smiled as I jumped from a hand on my shoulder. I looked to see Chris as he smiled.

" well now I know I'm not the only weird one that stands here and stares where the crowd is gonna be for night. " he said as I nodded.

" yea it's really cool you guys can have that effect on people. I love just watching bands reach to the fans and actually appreciate them. You guys probably have no idea how many dark places you've helped people out of with one small verse. Make people feel like they aren't alone and that they are loved. It's truly incredible how music works" I smiled as he nodded.

" I know. It's absolutely crazy. The words I say and write have such effect on people. It's beyond rewarding to hear people tell me their experiences. I truly love the way our music effects people. It matters to me. " I smiled at him as he spoke. He was so genuine it was nice to see that.

" ok guys it's almost starting time so we gotta get off the stage for the opening act. " one of the crew members said as they nodded and we walked off. I went back and chatted with the rest of the bands as we waited for the show to start. Soon it was time for me to go out as I sneakily took pictures of the opening acts. After about an hour, motionless came on. I snapped a photo of Chris grinning at me as I chuckled. I softly nodded my head taking pictures enjoying the show he put on. I turned around and kneeled and took a picture of the crowd against the barricade looking at the band in aw. I smiled widely and stood back up looking into the crowd. I suddenly saw a guy attacking a young girl as I quickly got the guards attention and pointed them out. When people weren't paying attention I quickly set my camera on the side of the stage and waved my hands getting Ryan's attention.

" there's a girl getting attacked in the crowd " I shouted as he nodded grabbing Chris halting the song. He pointed out the guy explaining to Chris as I looked to see the girl still getting attack. Chris quickly called the guy out as everyone shoved him to the front and the guards pulled him out to escort them.

" fuck you you bitch" he said as he spit at me. I quickly stood back avoiding it and rolled my eyes as they made sure the girl was ok. She just had a small bruise forming but wanted to stay in the crowd. They nodded and they resumed the concert as she thanked me. I nodded and grabbed my camera and started taking more pictures. After the concert I walked back stage as the boys smiled at me.

" thank you for catching that. We want these concerts to be safe for fans. " Ricky smiled as they nodded

" of course. I couldn't have just stood back. " they nodded as I walked back to the bus with them as we sat and chatted for awhile as they took turns showering.
