Just breathe in and out. I thought as Morgann drove me back to the tour bus. I know I had to go back eventually but I wasn't ready yet. "You okay?" Morgann asked, taking her eyes away from the road.

"I guess." I replied as my phone let out a high-pitched ding. I glanced at the picture my cousin Isabella sent me: it was me and Mia and my hand was slammed against her face.

"Don't look at those. The paparazzi are pigs." Morgann told me, snatching my phone from my hands. I rubbed my eyes and slumped down in my seat. I pulled my wavy hair into a bun and stared ahead at the growing tour bus.

"Morgann, I'm scared." I whispered. I had no idea how everyone was going to react...or how I was going to react.

"It's gonna be okay." She said, pulling over and putting the car in park. She turned to face me and her blue eyes were shining. "I'm going to miss you kid." Morgann smiled, wrapping me in a hug. I hugged her back and climbed out of the Range Rover.

"Wish me luck." I frowned, grabbing my clothes from last night out of the back. I glanced down at my black capri leggings, charcoal Vans and blue Salty Dog t-shirt. I trudged over to the bus and waved bye to Morgann as she pulled off. I tentatively opened the door and peeked in: Harry and Louis were on the couch, Liam was texting someone, Zayn was eating cereal, and Niall was no where in sight.

"Chloe!" Louis shouted, jumping out of his chair and pulling me into a hug. "We were worried sick." He whispered. "I'm sorry for being such an ass." He added, taking my face in his hands and looking into my eyes.

"Chlo, are you alright?" Liam asked, walking towards me.

"I'm fine." I mumbled, wanting to snuggle into Louis's chest.

"Have you seen the magazines?" Harry frowned. I hung my head and nodded.

"Where's...you know." I asked, looking around the bus.

"He didn't come back last night. I tried to text him but he didn't reply." Zayn answered, sitting down on the couch.

"You guys aren't One Direction with out him though." I pointed out, sitting with Zayn.

"We know. Not to mention the show tonight." Louis replied, huffing a little bit. I got out my phone and found Niall's contact.

"I'll try and call him." I sighed. I pressed the "dial" button and put it on speaker. The phone clicked on the fourth ring and someone yawned.

"Chloe?" Niall asked, as though he didn't believe I was there.

"Where are you?" Zayn called, grabbing ahold of the bottom of my phone.

"On my way. I needed some time to think about things." He mumbled. "Chloe can we please talk?" Niall added.

"I have to go." I whispered, before hanging up.

"Hey guys? Are there any extra toothbr- Oh hi." A girl with long caramel colored hair and blue eyes stepped through the doorway.

"Chloe, I want you to meet my cousin, Sophia." Harry grinned.

"Nice to meet you." I smiled, shaking her hand.

"She's staying with us for a couple of days. She'll be on the extra bunk." Harry explained.

"Well it's nice to finally have another girl here." I laughed, as Louis playfully shoved me.

"Can we go shopping? I need an outfit for the show tonight." Sophia said, braiding her hair down her back.

"Yeah, you and Chloe can go while we have our meeting." Harry told her. "Is that okay with you, Chloe?" He added, and I nodded.

"Let me go get changed and then we'll be on our way." I smiled, before walking into the "bunk room". I rummaged through my bag before deciding on a white t-shirt, a black leather jacket, a black and white scarf, my boyfriend jeans, and my neutral ballet flats. I left my hair in the bun and grabbed my chestnut satchel from it's place on my nightstand. I started to walk out but stopped short to listen to Louis and Sophia.

"It's really nice to see you again, Sophia. It's been a long time." Louis told her, while holding one of her hands. The other boys were no where in sight and they we just talking.

"I hope you and Eleanor can work out whatever is happening." Sophia replied, squeezing his hand. I walked back out and then made a scene of walking back in as if I hadn't been listening. Louis and Sophia jumped up when I walked in and Sophia and I headed out to my car.

"The shopping here is to die for." I smiled, slipping on my sunglasses. Sophia's face lit up as I told her all of the stores and different shopping malls. About 30 minutes later we pulled into an outlet mall and started towards Free People.

"So whats it like? The fame?" Sophia asked, casually sipping the coffee we just bought.

"It's kind of weird actually. People stop me in the street sometimes to take pictures with me. I'm not used to it yet." I told her, pushing my sunglasses on my head as we entered American Apparel. I helped Sophia find a perfect outfit for the night and then we headed back for my car.

"Chloe!" I heard people shout. I turned around and saw flashes and heard the clicks of a camera.

"Crap." I mumbled, grabbing Sophia's wrist and jogging to the car. Once we were a safe distance away I let out a breath.

"That was insane." She giggled.

"Are you laughing at my misfortune?" I asked, putting on my best fake scowl.

"Totally." Sophia laughed. I rolled my eyes and gave her a shove. I don't care if she was flirting with Louis, this girl is awesome.

"So are you excited for tonight?" I asked, about to grab the tour bus door handle.

"Yeah, it should be fu-" Sophia started. Eleanor stormed through the door, tears streaming down her face. She paused to look at me and glared.

"I hope you're happy." Eleanor sobbed, running to her car and climbing in.

"What the heck?" Sophia mumbled, pulling open the door. Louis was crouched down, picking up broken glass.

"Louis what happened?" I asked, getting a plastic bag for the glass.

"I told Eleanor I was in love with someone else and she started breaking things." He sighed, sitting on the couch.

"Who are you in love with?" Sophia replied, taking the hair tie out of her hair.

"I'm not ready to say yet." Louis told us, running a hand through his hair. Sophia was about to take his hand in hers when Harry walked through the door with Niall. I stood from my perch on the couch and Niall looked down.

"Chloe, you look lovely." Niall smiled. I looked down and tried my hardest not to give him a hug.

"I have to go get my bags from the car." I mumbled, scooting past Niall and Harry.

"I'll help." Harry volunteered. I heard Niall sigh and walk off into the other room before I closed the door.

"So how do you like Sophia?" Harry asked, as I handed him a few shopping bags.

"She's great. I really like her." I honestly responded, taking the last three bags and closing the door.

"I thought you might like her." He told me, and I could practically imagine the cheeky smile on his face. I smiled and opened the door. When I saw what was happening inside I dropped the bags and my smile faded. Louis had his hand on Sophia's face as they kissed.

Why was my heart being broken so much lately?
