Laura's POV

I enter my old bedroom, and the nostalgia hits me. Everything is still here, my desk, my bookshelves, everything. I sit down on the bed, sighing happily. The walls are painted a plain white, because this bedroom is now a guest room, but I can still remember all the memories I had as a teenager. It seems so long ago.

Jack peeks his head around the door, and I give him a small smile. "Feels weird, doesn't it?" He asks, and I nod, looking around the room another time. "Yeah, but I like it. It's nice to be back home" Jack sits down beside me, and the bed creaks, filling the empty silence.

"Can I ask you a question? You don't have to answer it if you don't want to" Jack asks and I nod slowly, confused. "Okay, what's wrong?" I hate when people ask questions like this, because you don't know what's going to hit you. "What did it feel like to grow up without a Mother? 'Cause you were adopted by two dads and all" His ocean blue eyes look directly into mine, and I shrug my shoulders.

"Well, ever since my other parents died, I lived without a mother for a long time" I try not to let the moments before the crash come back, the screaming, the pain, never again. Jack nods patiently, and I sigh. "When I was adopted by you two I never even thought about not having a mother, I was just happy to be adopted and have a family" Jack's eyes light up, as he remembers those precious moments. "I guess after it all died down, I did ask the question, what will people think when I tell them I have two dads and not a mom?"

Jack looks at the ground, and I quickly continue "But I loved you a lot, so I didn't care what people would say" I reassure him and he smiles again. "People didn't say much at school, some people thought it was strange but never really went on about it, they just kind of accepted it and moved on. I'm grateful for that" I hug Jack and he squeezes me tightly. "I'm grateful for that too" He whispers in my ear and I feel happier inside.

"Anyways, I have had a mom all this time anyways" Jack looks at me, confused at what I just said. "Come on Jack, you know you're the mom of the family" I joke and he pushes me off the bed, laughing. "Shut up you" I laugh, giving him another hug. It's just like the old times, and I love it.

Later on that day we decide to record a few videos. On my channel we are going to do 'Who knows me better?'. I set up the camera, making sure it's in focus and everyone will be in shot. I turn on the microphone and sit down in the middle of Jack and Mark. "You two ready?" I ask and they both nod. "You're going down, Jack" Mark says jokingly, trying to look scary and angry. Jack just laughs "You wish" He says and we finally start the video.

"Hey guys! Today I'm here with Mark and Jack!" They both wave to the camera. "Today we are going to do the 'Who knows me better?' tag. Both of them have whiteboards and a marker. I'm going to ask them questions and who ever gets it right wins. Whoever gets in wrong will have to pick a piece of paper from this jar and do what it says on the paper" I shake the jar, full of pieces of paper. Fans sent in dares from Twitter, and lets just say they were very inventive.

*small time skip*

"Okay Jack! You got it wrong so you have to do whatever it says on the paper!" I say and Jack sighs, randomly pulling out a piece of paper. "How was I supposed to know that Ms Johnson was the teacher you hated the most?" He mumbled and I laugh. "I complained about her all the time, Mark remembers! Now, tell us what's on that slip of paper!" Jack unfolds the slip of paper, and blushes a deep red. "What's written on it?" Mark asks, inpatient.

"Kiss Mark for 20 seconds straight while the song 'Sex' is playing" He says and Mark laughs. "That's easy! Why are you so embarrassed?" Jack shrugs his shoulders "It's awkward, I would be able to do it off camera" I look at them both, and Jack looks very uncomfortable. "You don't have to do it, I'll just edit-" "No, I'll do it. I'm not a wimp" Jack says, interrupting me. I shrug my shoulders "If you say so"

I look up the song and start playing it, and Mark gets closer to Jack. Jack is still blushing, and goes an even deeper red when Mark cups his face in his hand. He kissed him, the kiss getting more and more passionate by the second. I turn around, because it's very awkward to watch your parents making out. I count down the seconds and turn around, turning off the music. I expect them to be done, but they're still going. "Um guys? You can stop now" I say but they ignore me.

A few seconds later they stop and Jack laughs. "Oops" Mark says and I laugh, shaking my head. "We will continue later" Jack winks at Mark and I quickly look at the camera. "Okay, that was interesting, thanks for watching guys and I'll see you soon! Bye!" Everyone waves and I quickly turn off the camera, leaving the room. "Have fun!" I shout, wanting to leave the two lovebirds alone as soon as possible.

I sit at the table in the kitchen, and I get my laptop, deciding to start editing the video straight away. I laugh at the footage, especially when Mark has to has to do a seven second challenge. He has to touch all the walls in the room, and he trips on the chair, landing face first on the floor. All of us are crying from laughing so much.
I quickly edit all the rest of the video, and awkwardly edit the end. I turn off my laptop and see that Jack and Mark have not come out of my room yet. I roll my eyes, laughing.

Joe's POV

I finish the last song and the whole crowd goes wild. I stand up and wave, high fiving a few fans in the crowd. I leave the stage and I'm quickly ushered back to my dressing room. A big bag of mail is left on my couch, it's all fanmail. After shows I go through all the fanmail and choose the things I want to keep, and all the stuff goes to charity. I obviously keep all the letters, but I can only keep a certain number of gifts.

I sit down on the edge of the couch, pouring the bag of fanmail onto the floor. Everyone is so thoughtful, and there are so many gifts. I put all the letters into one pile, and then I sort through all the gifts. I keep all handmade gifts, and stuff that fans have given to me to give to Laura. There's a necklace that says "Couple goals" on it, one for each of us. I laugh at the gift, and put it into my bag, making sure I won't forget it.

After an hour of sorting through mail I'm finally done, and I grab my phone to FaceTime Laura. I don't do this very often, and when I do it's not for very long. I'm always moving and I have to leave to get on the tour bus in a few minutes. I call Laura, and she answers. She looks happy, which is good. "Hey! How are you?" She asks, and I smile, nodding. "I'm good, the concert was crazy tonight. Definitely the best stop so far" She nods, and I can feel that she is a bit sad, so I decide to show her the beautiful necklaces.

"Look what I got today! A fan gave me these necklaces. One for me and one for you" I show her the necklaces and she smiles happily. "Wow, they are really nice! Everyone must be so happy to see you" She says, and I can hear slight jealousy in her voice. "Laura, you'll see me soon. Remember, only seven shows left until I see you! We will do whatever you want to do" She smiles, and I know that I've made her happier again. "Thanks, it's just I really miss you" She says sighing and I give her a reassuring smile. "I miss you too, I love you" "I love you too, call me soon okay? I really want y-" Chloe opens the door quickly. "Come on Joe! You have to get on the bus now!"

I sigh, "Sorry, I have to go. I'll see you soon okay?" Laura shakes her head, obviously annoyed. "Yeah, see you soon, bye" She hangs up and I sigh, grabbing the end of all my stuff before closing the door behind me. I have to make it up to Laura some way.

One more stop in Ireland before I travel to Germany. I look out the window and watch the green fields fly by, creating just a blur of green. Rain is falling down my window, and the sky is a grey black colour. Just like my mood right now.

Ireland has been a beautiful place to visit, there is so much to explore and do, but I've been on such a tight schedule that I haven't been able to look around and relax in my new surroundings. But I am staying for one day after my Dublin concert, so I'm hoping to get Laura a souvenir. I sigh, looking out the window again. The rain is heavy now and is making loud banging noises on the roof of the bus. It's the middle of summer, shouldn't it be sunny? (Nope never is never will)

Conor's tenth anniversary is coming up soon, just after I get back. It's weird to think that it's been ten years, ten years since I've talked to my bestfriend. I still blame myself for his death everyday. I could've done something, I could've helped him get better and he would still be here today. But I didn't, and now he's gone.

Gone forever.
