"When you take Niall's line up the octave, be a little softer. You're louder than him." Dan, our producer, smiled and I gave him a nod.

"Best I ever had, hips don't lie, you make me wanna 'sssss' one more night." I sang, fighting a smile when I said "sssss".

"Awesome that's perfect." Dan said, giving us the signal for break.

"Awesome job." Liam told me when I walked out of the booth.

"Are you sure? I don't think it sounded all that great." I frowned, looking down at my black Converse.

"You did amazing." Louis whispered, coming up behind me and wrapping his hands around my waist.

"Well I'm only touring with you guys a few more months. I'm going to miss it." I sighed. I can't even begin to think about going back to my regualr life as opposed to this. I'm not going to have the friends I've met or the guy I love. What's going to happen?

"Is pizza okay with you Chloe?" Zayn asked, snapping me from my thoughts. I quickly nodded and leaned back onto Louis's shoulder.

"Can I tag along?" I felt my eyes grow wide and my mouth flip into a frown.

"Sophia. What are you doing here?" Harry hissed, obviously pissed off that his cousin was back.

"I never really left. I need to say some things to Chloe and Louis. Explain myslef." She told us. Harry pulled her over into the corner to talk to her and I turned to Louis, who had turned white.

"I don't know what to say to her." I whispered, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Look, I don't know what to say to her either, considering she came onto me, but we have to clear this up." Louis explained.

"Okay." I mumbled, turning around and walking over to where Harry and Sophia were talking. "She can come." I said, watching her expression change from sad to hopeful.

"Thanks Chloe." Sophia replied, shifting back to sad. I can see why...I mean she lost a friend over this, I'm sad too. I really liked Sophia.

"Is everyone ready?" Niall asked, getting a set of keys from a dish on the table.

"I'll drive." Zayn offered as Niall tossed him the keys.

"Let's hope we don't get recognized." Liam fake smiled. Louis, Harry, Sophia and I tried to give him a laugh but it failed miserabley and we ended up just passing it off as a cough. Niall and Zayn shared the same awkward look as we walked to the car. Liam was the last one in the car. Niall tried to start a conversation but we all ignored his attempt.

"Okay, we're here." Zayn said, pulling into a place called "Tim's Pizza Bar". We all climbed out and walked towards the restaurant. As we reached the door Niall handed us each a black hoodie and we put them on with the hoods. Sophia was left without a hoodie as we walked in.

"Sophia, Chloe, Harry and I will sit in one booth." Louis told the others. I sighed as we slid into the booth. Louis laced my fingers in his and some of the feeling instantly washed away.

"I wanted to say sorry for what I did. I've liked Louis ever since I can remember and I thought that maybe he was in love with me." Sophia explained, playing with the napkin dispenser.

"Tell Harry." Louis told her.

"Harry, Louis didn't kiss me, I kissed him." She sighed. I saw Harry's shoulders relax and he nodded at Louis.

"Okay." Harry replied.

"Anything else?" Louis asked her. Sophia untied and then retied her braid.

"Chloe, I'm sorry for kissing Louis. I was jealous of the relationship you guys had and I didn't know what to do. I'm really upset that my actions caused me to loose a friend." Sophia admitted.

"I'm sorry for getting so worked up but at least now you can see why." I replied, as Louis rested his hand on my knee.

"Are we okay?" She asked everybody, looking from one face to the next.

"Yeah." Louis and I said in unison. Harry just nodded, looking over the menu.

"Hey, Liam right?" I turned around and saw the girl from last night.

"Yeah. Carleigh?" Liam asked.

"That's me." Carleigh laughed, pushing her sunglasses up into her blonde hair.

"Would you like to join us?" Liam replied, moving his stuff over.

"Sure, if it's no trouble." She smiled. I turned back around and smiled at Louis.

"Looks like Liam found himself a girlfriend." I giggled.

~~~~~~

"Check." I smirked. "Mate." I knocked over Louis's king piece and sat back in my seat.

"You did that in seven moves!" Louis exclaimed, examining all the pieces.

"Louis, I've been in 17 chess competitions. Fifteen of which, I've won. The other two I got second." I reminded him.

"Oh yeah I remember. My loser best friend." He laughed, throwing his king at me. I dodged it and giggled, jumping up and grabbing a nearby cupcake.

"I'll do it." I said, unwrapping it.

"Chloe Thomas, if you throw that cupcake-" Louis started. Before he could finish he had icing in his hair. I froze, a smile on my face, as he looked from the cake on his shirt and back to me. "Oh it is so on." He said, tossing the piece of gum he had been chewing at me.

"Ew!" I yelled, as the gum landed on my shoe. I opened the fridge and threw some left over baked beans at him.

"Woah! What is going on?" Simon asked, walking through the door. Louis stopped, an open bottle of ketchup in his hand.

"We were just messing around." I explained, as he stepped further into the bus.

"You had a food fight." Simon said. "Without me?" With that, he picked up a box of cereal and began pelting it at me and Louis. This day wasn't as bad as I expected.
