Sarah's POV~
The next day.
I told them not to go in the pool.
I sighed as I walked into Luke's room, to find him in a sneezing fit.
"Jesus Luke." I said as I walked over to his bed side and sat him up.
I gave him his medicine, which was really strong, before laying him back down.
"Go to sleep." I commanded before closing the door behind me as I walked out.
I jumped slightly as my phone vibrated in my pocket.
"Hello?" I asked quietly as I put the phone up to my ear.
"Hey Forbs. So I was wondering if you wanted to go to an interview with me? They called a few minutes ago." Chase's voice filtered through the small speaker.
"Oh Chase, I'm sorry, but I'm taking care of the boys. They're all sick." I said, sighing softly.
"Get someone else to take care of them." He replied.
"The only ones that aren't sick are Calum, Liam, and Anna. And I don't want to get them sick." I said.
"I'm sure they wouldn't mind." He replied.
"It's not fair Chase. I can't go."
"Just bring them along then."
"I don't know..."
"Don't worry! Live a little!"
"But-"
"Just go ask them already!" He yelled.
"Fine!" I whisper-yelled back as I hung up.
This isn't fair to them at all.
I walked back into Luke's room, to find him laying there, looking up at the ceiling.
"Luke?" I asked.
"Yeah?" He replied.
"Didn't feel like sleeping did you?"
"Nope." He replied, popping the 'p'.
"Well. I have an interview, and I'm thinking about bring you along. But do you want to tag along?" I asked and he shot up from his bed.
"YES!" He yelled before running past me to everyone else's rooms, yelling 'WE'RE GOING SOMEWHERE! GET UP IDIOTS!'
I chuckled softly before following him, to find all of the boys peeping their heads out of their rooms.
"Where are we going?" Liam asked.
"An interview I have." I replied and his eyes lit up slightly.
Why are they so excited, it's just an interview!?!
"An interview!?! Can we come!?!" Michael yelled loudly.
"Why do you think Luke is running around saying that we're going somewhere. Key word, we're." I replied.
"Point taken." He said.
"Just... all of you, just get dressed." Motioning to all of the heads looking at me curiously.
Amazing how Luke woke them all up.
.
.
.
.
When they were all dressed, they stood by the door as I packed up the door.
When I finished, I looked at the breakfasts.
Anna, check.
Liam, check.
Harry, check.
Louis, check.
Niall, check.
Zayn, check.
Luke, check.
Ashton, check.
Calum, check.
Michael, check.
Chase, check.
What? He may not have eaten.
"Alright." I said as I put them all neatly into a bag, before carrying it out to the rest of them.
"Go, go, go." I said, ushering them into the cold winter air towards the huge van we had outside, them quickly getting in.
"Okay, breakfasts." I said when I sat down into my chair beside Calum.
"Anna, Liam, Harry." I said as I held the packs out to them and they took it out gratefully.
"Louis, Niall, Zayn." I said, handing them theirs.
"Luke, Ashton, Calum." I said and they snatched them quickly.
"Michael." I said, throwing him his, and he caught it clumsily.
"Chase." I called before throwing it to him, he catching it easily.
"Thank you!" Everyone called as they opened up their packs and the van was filled with the aroma of delicious food.
"Where's your food?" Harry asked me as he gulped down his orange juice.
"I'm not hungry." I replied.
In reality, I actually was hungry, but I didn't exactly have enough time to make my own breakfast.
I was too busy grounding up the cold pills that they all hated so much and putting it in their drinks. Minus Liam, Anna, Calum, and Chase, since they aren't sick.
"Chase! How much longer until we get to the place?" I asked him.
"Few more minutes." He replied.
"Aight." I said.
.
.
.
.
.
.
In no time at all, we made it to the radio station interview.
"Alright, everyone out!" I said as I opened the van door and stepped out.
I was greeted with hundreds of girls screaming girls.
Even louder when Luke, Calum, Michael, and Ashton stepped out.
Louder, when Harry, Zayn, Niall, Liam, and Louis came out.
You can't even imagine how loud they were when Anna and Chase stepped out last.
"Jesus..." Chase muttered as we started walking down the long road to the radio station studio.
Liam, Chase, Anna, Calum, and I walked in front of our group while Zayn, Niall, Luke, Louis, Michael, Harry, and Ashton trailed behind, sneezing heir heads off.
"Harry! Are you sick!" I heard a girl scream.
"Oh my God! Ashton's face is so red!" Another screamed.
"How can Irish people even get sick!" I laughed as I heard that one.
"Hurry up guys! We're almost there." I called behind me.
"Alright, meanie." Luke called back and I laughed, shaking my head slightly, before turning around to continue walking.
I nearly jumped a feet back when I noticed a mass of girls running our way.
I turned back around to find girls coming that way as well, and everyone running my way.
"Jesus Christ! They're just boys!" I exclaimed as I looked for a way to run.
Right it is.
I waited for the rest of the boys to catch up before motioning to follow me.
Fangirls are vicious, I would know.
I declare World War 3 on these people!
Almost to the end of these mongrels! I thought.
Once I made it through all the girls, I tripped, letting go of Calum, rolling across the ground until I stopped myself, groaning.
I sat up to see everyone splayed out across the ground as well.
"Lets not do that again." I panted.
"You left a bruise on my arm Sarah." Calum pouted.
"I'm sorry." I replied, smiling apologetically.
"Not your best idea sis, but I'm guessing it was the only one that would work?" Luke asked after he caught his breath.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Hey, you're bleeding." Niall said, pointing at my arm.
I frowned and looked down at it.
I saw a scratch going from my elbow, around, to my wrist. It was bleeding profusely, but it didn't hurt.
"Eh. Only a flesh wound, I'm fine." I replied, and though Niall frowned, he didn't push it any further.
"I praise you Sarah, you have guts. And strength. My feet weren't even on the ground, you were pulling so hard." Harry laughed, and I laughed as well.

Time skip: Beginning of radio interview
Still Sarah's POV~
"So we're hear with Chase DíFrancisco and Sarah Hemmings of Anonymous 6, everyone. I'm so sorry about the fans outside, the guards couldn't hold them back." The interviewer, Acclair, apologized.
"Nah, it's okay." Chase replied.
"I also apologize about your arm. I never thought they would actually harm you." She continued to apologize.
"For the third time, I'm fine. It's fine, they were just being their crazed fans' selves!" I exclaimed.
"Lets continue onto the interview, shall we?" Chase said impatiently.
"Right. So I have a question for the both of you." She started.
"Kay." I said.
"What is your process of song writing? Do you all get together and write? Or..." She trailed off
"Well, what we used to do was: we would gather everyone, ya know," I said and she nodded. "And we would sing. Sing whatever came out of our hearts until it came to the same topic, same words, and viola! You have a song."
"Sometimes we would write it by ourselves, and show every one else." Chase added and I nodded in agreement.
"Speaking of writing by yourselves..." She started as she touched a screen beside her. "That song you wrote after the concert in San Francisco, is it a duet? Because it changes from he, to she, to you, and back again. What's up with that?"
"Yeh, it's a duet." I started. "Since, you know, I wrote it by myself, I showed it to the rest of the band. Again. And they decided that it would be a duet between Chase and I."
"Oh! How convenient! Could you play it for us?" She exclaimed.
"Why does it seem that every time I go on a show, or a podcast, or an interview, they ask me to do something or play something? But yeh, we'll play it for you all." I laughed.
"Uh, do you have a guitar?" I asked and she shook her head.
"Okay, it won't sound as good without the guitar, but we can try." I sighed.
"When you're ready." Acclair said as she started the camcorder.
"It's like
He doesn't hear what I say
Like he's always so damn far
away
And I don't know how to get there." I started singing as Chase prepared.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw all the boys look at the speakers in the hallway, before looking inside the room, where I was.
"You know," (Sarah)
"Are you serious?" Chase sung.
"I really can't hold on," (Sarah)
"Don't run away." He continued when I got to the word 'can't'.
"To these feelings that you fight," (Sarah)
"Away
But I really want to know that," (Both)
"If it's..." He sung. (Chase)
"You," I sung. (Sarah)
"Me," He countered. (Chase)
"We're face to face,
But we don't see eye to eye!" (Both)
"We're like fire and rain!" (Sarah)
"Fire and rain." (Chase)
"You always drive me insane!" (Sarah)
"Drive me insane." (Chase)
"And you're always mad at me for everything!" (Both)
"We're like Venus and Mars!" (Sarah)
"Venus and Mars." (Chase)
"We're like different stars!" (Sarah)
"Different stars." (Chase)
"But you're the subject of every song I sing!
So if I could change us,
I'd change everything!" (Both)
"She's always tryin to see the day
Wouldn't let my music play
It's all or nothing
But my feelings never changed." (Chase)
"Why
Is he tryin to read my mind?
Trying to find where
he lies.
That's what all of my friends say." (Sarah)
"You" (Sarah)
"Me" (Chase)
"We're face to face
But we don't see eye to eye! " (Both)
"We're like fire and rain!" (Sarah)
"Fire and rain." (Chase)
"You always drive me insane!" (Sarah)
"Drive me insane." (Chase)
"And you're always mad at me for everything!" (Both)
"We're like Venus and Mars!" (Sarah)
"Venus and Mars." (Chase)
"We're like different stars!" (Sarah)
"Different stars." (Chase)
"But you're the subject of every song I sing!" (Both)
"So if I could change us,
I'd change everything!" (Both)
"When I'm near, she's gone..." (Chase)
"When I hold on, he just lets go..." (Sarah)
"We're horribly imperfect
So I'd change everything,
Yeah!" (Both)
Our voices slightly rose in pitch, in perfect sync.
"We're like fire and rain!" (Sarah)
"Fire and rain." (Chase)
"You always drive me insane!" (Sarah)
"Drive me insane." (Chase)
"And you're always mad at me for everything!" (Both)
"We're like Venus and Mars!" (Sarah)
"Venus and Mars." (Chase)
"We're like different stars!" (Sarah)
"Different stars." (Chase)
"But you're the subject of every song I sing!" (Both)
"So if I could change us,
I'd change everything!
And you're always mad at me for everything" (Both)
"We're like Venus and Mars!" (Sarah)
"Venus and Mars." (Chase)
"We're like different stars!" (Sarah)
"Different stars." (Chase)
"But you're the subject of every song I sing!
So if I could change us,
I'd change everything... " (Both)
My eyes, which closed while I sang, opened up to look at Acclair, as well as into the camera.
"How was that?" I asked.
"Ask them." She said, pointing at the boys outside.
I frowned before Chase and I turned to look at them, only to burst out laughing.
They were, at the moment, running around, jumping, freaking out, screaming, fangirling, anything, while Anna sat on the couch, staring at them with this 'WHAT THE f**k' face on.
I mean, even Liam was f*****g fangirling.
And people say he's the mature one.
Well.
"Well, I'm wondering how many views this is going to get on YouTube?" Acclair said as she tapped away on her computer, most likely posting the video.
"I don't know, a few hundred?" I replied and she laughed.
"How about a few million?" She snickered.
"I don't believe so." I replied.
"Why don't we continue the interview!" Chase exclaimed.
.
.
.
.
.
"She was not a very nice person." I grumbled as I sat back in my seat while we all drove home.
"Why, she seemed nice to me." Calum replied.
"Yeah, to you. She stuck me with the birdie and told me to f**k off." I frowned.
"Well, I don't know then." He replied and I scolded at him.
"So helpful." I said sarcastically.
"I know I am." He replied. I shook my head softly before looking at everyone else.
"Woah!" Luke suddenly exclaimed.
"What?" I asked.
"We sold out in Madison Square Garden!" He smiled wide.
"Wow. Congrats guys." I said, smiling.
While Luke turned away to talk to Harry, I decided to check my text messages.
I skimmed through quickly.
Luke
Luke
Luke
Michael
Anna
Luke
Calum
Calum
Ashton

Stella

...
Stella? That's weird.
I tapped on her text message and my eyes widened.
This is what it said:
Hello Sarah, I'm your brothers manager, Stella.
Yours as well.
So I'm guessing you've heard that the boys sold out in Madison Square Garden, right?
Well you can't go.
You have a concert today in Sacramento, California with your band, which has sold out as well.
I've already sent this message to your band mates.
G' Luck on stage.
-Stella
I blinked once, twice, three times, but the message didn't disappear.
"Haha, wow. I can't go to your concert." I said to Calum, but everyone heard.
"What!?! Why!" Luke whined and I laughed.
"We have a concert of our own in Sacramento . By we, I mean the band and I." I replied and Luke pouted.
"That's no fair." He grumbled.
"What Stella says, goes. Sorry Luke." I apologized and he frowned.
"Stella booked it?" He asked.
"Yeah, look." I said as I handed him my phone and he looked at the screen intently.
"Wow. She is so mean." Luke says in a sassy voice.
Jesus Christ.
If Maddie was here, oh good lord.
Help me Jesus, help me.
Luke handed me back my phone as I laughed to myself quietly.
"And people say you aren't actor material." I said, silently chuckling.

Time Skip: At the airport
Still Sarah's POV~
I waved madly with my friends as the boys, and 1D, including Anna, started walking to their plane.
"Jesus, Luke." Maddie whispered in my ear and I laughed.
I called it.
My phone buzzed in my pocket. I frowned before taking it out.
Of course it was a text from Luke.
What Maddie say? He'd asked.
Nothing. And fyi, be prepared to get group messaged the most cliche thing ever. I replied.
What? He asked almost instantly.
You'll see. Be prepared to lyao. I replied.
I tapped away at my screen quickly.
Chase, Mads, Alison, Brandon, James, Hazza, Nialler, Zen, Boobear, Li, Breadstick, Ballerina Ash, Anna, Calvin, and i***t were added to the group conversation.
Perfect.
My friends and I tapped away furiously, the same message, that'll be sent to everyone else 6 different times.
"3...2...1... now!" I said before pressing send.
We'll be watching over you, WHEREVER YOU ARE. YOUUUUUUUUUU, WHEREVER YOU ARE!
That was the message.
We were quickly greeted with 'OH MY GOD's, 'LOL's, 'lmao's, and 'WOOOOOOOOOW!'s.
Told you it was gonna be cliche. I sent.
I see that now. Wow. Luke sent back.
We're on the plane. We have to turn our phones off. Bye guys. Liam sent before I was greeted with the notification that Liam left the group message.
Bye everyone. We're already late to our plane. Gotta run! Bye bye! Break a leg on stage tonight! I sent before turning my phone off and starting to run towards our gate.

Time Skip: Beginning of concert in Sacramento , California
Still Sarah's POV~
"What up Sacramento!" I shouted into the mic, being replied with a loud roar.
"I'm so sorry of those of you who wanted to be in Madison Square Garden, but took pity and came here. I'm so grateful." I said, smiling.
"So, since I love my brother so much, I'm going to cover one of their songs. Have any of you heard of Beside You?" I asked and the crowd cheered. I smiled.
Within a minute I was all packed up
I've got a ticket to another world
I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
Silent words are hard to speak
When your thoughts are all I see
"Don't ever leave," she said to me
When we both fall asleep, underneath the same sky
To the beat of our hearts at the same time
So close but so far away
(Can you hear me?)
[Chorus:]
She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was
Beside you
She lies awake
Trying to find the words to say
I wish I was, I wish I was
Beside you
Another day, and I'm somewhere new
I made a promise that I'll come home soon
Bring me back, bring me back to you
When we both wake up underneath the same sun
Time stops, I wish that I could rewind
So close but so far away
[Chorus:]
She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was
Beside you
She lies awake
Trying to find the words to say
I wish I was, I wish I was
Beside you
The pieces of us both
Under every city light
And the shining as we fade into the night
She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was
[Chorus:]
She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was
Beside you
She lies awake
Trying to find the words to say
I wish I was, I wish I was
Beside you
She lies awake
Beside you
I wish I was, I wish I was
She sleeps alone
My heart wants to come home
I wish I was, I wish I was
When we finished with the song, the crowd was silent for a few moments, before coming to life, screaming, crying, cheering, roaring.
And all I did was stand there like an i***t, smiling.
Luke's POV~
I stood there, listening to the crowd roar when we finished Beside You.
"So I'm guessing you guys liked it then?" I said into the mic, screams as replies.
I shook my head slightly before going into the intro of Everything I Didn't Say.
Sarah's POV~
20 minutes later-
After finishing 6 songs, which consisted of Beside You, I'd Change Everything, Wished Upon A Star, American i***t, Teenage Dream, and Written In The Stars, we took a short break, sitting on the edge of the stage, drinking water, with our mics in our hands, speaking to the crowd.
"Aight, so I saw a few posters in the crowd. Could you guys put them up for a sec?" Alison asked the crowd and they did.
"Look! You see that long line of posters? It says 'Beside You forever'! I totally have to show Luke that." I said into the mic, to Alison, before standing up and taking a picture of it with my phone.
Chase searched the crowd intently.
"I think I see a few stars in the front row." Chase said and I looked there.
My eyes widened an Katy Perry locked stare with me.
"Oh my god. I just locked stares with a famous person. Silently screaming on the inside. Thank you Jesus." I said, lifting my hands comically.
"Hallelujah! Hallelujah. Hallelujah! Halleluuuuuujaaaaaaah." Maddie sung and I laughed loudly.
"Yes Maddie. You are my bae right now." I laughed.
"Well. Breaks over." Chase said as he stood up, wiping off his jeans, before walking over to his drum set.
"Yeh. Leggo." I said.
"My eggo!" Maddie finished and I smirked.
"This song is Titanium. I like it allot." I said as Alison started the intro.
