Sarah said yes. Simon has asked Sarah if she wants to be signed. Sarah told the boys, Maya, Alyssa, and Roselinde about her being signed. Sarah grabbed a mysterious stone before she left Louis's house.
---------------------------------------------------
Sarah's P.O.V.
I can't believe Simon wants to sign me. And only in a few hours I'll be signed to a record company! What do I wear to something like this?! You might be asking, "Sarah you have no clothes with you?" Well sassy pants, Paul shipped some of my clothes, makeup, and hair products from Harry's and my flat. I'm just glad the boys brought home my clothes when they last went to the flat. Well, might as well start figuring out what I'm gonna wear.

I wiggle out of Niall's grip from our hotel room and quietly run to my suitcase. I dig through it and find a perfect outfit for this day. I pick out my lace black strapless shirt, dark blue jeans, leather jacket, and lace black high heels. I take my clothes and makeup bag and go to the bathroom. I put it all down and turn on the shower. I was way to tired to take a shower last night. First time in a bed in practically 6 months. Same with the shower. What feels like a half hour later, I feel refreshed. It's feels good to be clean after 6 months. I quickly put my clothes on. I plug in my straightener as I hear one of the boys come out of their room. I do my makeup as I wait for the straightener. Someone knocks on the bathroom door. I open the door and continue with my mascara. "Why up so early, Harold?" I ask as I put my dark red lipstick on. "Couldn't sleep," Harry says as he leans on the door frame. I start to straighten my hair when Harry ask, "when do you have to go to Simon's?" "10 so I think I'll leave around 9:45ish. What time is it?" I ask as I just finish my hair. "9:30. Want me to take you?" Harry says after he checks his phone. "Please," I plead as I shove my makeup in my makeup bag. I put my shoes on as Harry says, "you know where to find me when you're ready!" I collect all my things and run to Niall's and my room. I throw my stuff into my suitcase and run to the nightstand next to Niall. I unplug my phone and put it in my back pocket. I put my engagement ring on. I grab the anti-depression pills and run to the kitchen. I look through all the cabinets until I find the glass cups. I take one out and fill it with water. I pop two pills in my mouth and down the water. I check the time and see its 9:40. "Shit!" I run into our room and put my pills into my suitcase. I walk over to Niall and brush some of his hair away. I put my hand on his forehead and kiss him gently on the cheek. I grab the pen and paper from the nightstand and write a quick note to him.

-Nialler
I had to leave to go to Simon's office before you woke up. I didn't want to wake you so I got Harry to take me. Don't worry 'bout me. Harry can take me back here.
I love you! 😘
-Sarah

I put the note on his phone and dash out of the room. "You ready?" Harry asks. "Yea. Can you take me back?" I ask him. "Sure, as long as Niall doesn't mind," Harry says. "I'm sure he'll be fine with it," I say as Harry and I walk out the door. He locks it behind him. We get into the elevator and press the lobby button. We get stopped at the 4th floor. When the door opens, in walk a huge fan of Harry's. I put my hands behind my back, not sure if Niall wants the world to know about us being engaged yet. "Oh my god! Are you Harry Styles and Sarah Ballard!" The blonde 16 year old says. "Last time I checked we were," Harry says. The girl's wearing a navy blue skin tight dress with navy blue sparkly high heels. "Oh my god! This is not happening. Just breathe Lindsey just breathe," the girl says to herself. "Would ya like a picture?" Harry asks. "If it's not to much trouble that would be amazing," she says. "It's not a problem," Harry says. She takes out her phone as Harry gets closer to her. "Can you be in it too?" The girl asks me. "Me?" I say pointing to myself. "Yea, your my idol. I'd love for you to be in it," she says. I stand next to her right and Harry on her left. We pose for the picture as she takes several pictures. The elevator stops as she puts her phone away. "Thank you so much!" She squeals. "No big deal, love," Harry says. The elevator doors open as Harry pulls his hood up. The two of us put our sunglasses on as the girl runs out of the elevator. Harry and I step out of the elevator and see Paul leaning against the wall facing the elevators. "They didn't have the car around back so we have to go through the front," Paul says walking over to us. Harry and I nod our heads and head to the front door. As soon as we get through the doors, my ears are filled with screams from all angles. I feel an arm go around my shoulders and help me through the crowd. "Just keep your head down and don't show your left hand to any camera," Harry whispers in my ear. I nod my head shoving my hands in my pocket as Paul directs people to the side. We get in the car just as I hear a girl scream, "Sarah! You should be dead!" Paul closes the door and heads back inside as Harry nearly screams at her. I stop him by saying, "Harry. Don't. You. Dare." "I wasn't gonna do anything," Harry says looking at me as we buckle up. "Bullshit. You were gonna ruin your status just so you could defend your baby sister," I say looking at him. "Maybe," Harry mumbles. Harry drives me to Simon's office and it's great. Harry and I haven't spent time like this in a long time. We just talk about anything on the way and 15 minutes later were there. "Thanks for taking me," I say unbuckling. "No problem. Call me when you're done, ya?" Harry says. "Of course," I smile at him. I jump out of the car and close the car door. Harry drives away and I run inside before anyone sees me. "Hi. Simon wanted me to come here at 10?" I say to the lady at the front desk. "Name?" "Sarah Ballard." "She's fine, Linn. Just let her back," I hear someone say from my left. I look over and see Simon in a black tux. I walk over to Simon. "Follow me," Simon says. I follow him down the hall and into an elevator. I feel my phone vibrate and pull it out. Niall's face pops up. I look at Simon and point to it. He waves it off as the elevator starts moving. I answer it putting it to my right ear. "Hey, Ni." "Where are you?" Niall asks clearly worried. "Did you not see the note I clearly left on your phone?" I ask. "What note? Wait this note?" Niall asks. "Well I can't see the note so I don't know." "It was on the floor next to the bed," Niall says. There's a pause. "Oh. Did I interrupt anything?" Niall asks. "No. Just in the elevator which just stopped. I gotta go, Ni," I say sadly. "Oh okay. I love you," Niall says upset. "I love you too," I say cheerfully. I hang up the phone and put it in my back pocket. Simon steps out of the elevator on the top floor. We walk down the hall and stop at the fifth door on the right. We walk in and I see Maya and Alyssa  standing in there. "What are you guys doing here?" I ask staring at them. "Simon told us that he wants to sign us," Maya says. "Did you ask Roselinde?" I ask. "Yes. However, she said she couldn't because of her baby son," Simon says going to his desk and sitting down. He motions for us to do the same, which we do. "I asked you all here because I've heard you all sing one time or another. And I thought that you three could be the next big thing," Simon says. He continues, "just imagine it! One Direction and you three the two top bands in the world!" "What would we be called?" Maya asks. Theres a pause between the 4 of us. "What about Torn Silent," I quietly say. "I like Torn Silent. Kinda catchy," Alyssa says. "Me too," Maya says. "Well then, Torn Silent. Come up with some songs by Monday please and we can start recording. I have a studio near New York City, so if you wish to fly back there, you can," Simon says. We look at each other then nod. "As long as the boys can come with us, we'd love to go back," Maya says. He nods then looks at me. "Can you ask the boys if they want to?" Simon asks me. "Of course, Simon. I have no doubt that they will love to come back with us," I say. "Alright then. Go get some rest and work on those songs. I'll schedule your flight home as soon as I know that the boys will come," Simon says. We sign the contracts and an hour later, we're leaving. "Thanks Simon. See you Monday!" I say. We walk out and head to the elevator. As soon as the doors close, we scream all at once. "I can't believe we're in a band!" Maya squeals. "I know right!" Alyssa squeals. "Let's go back to my hotel room. Niall's probably worried since it's been an hour since I last spoke to him," I say taking out my phone. I send Louis a quick text just saying to come to the hotel room with the address and hotel room number. We walk out of the elevator with sunglasses on, somehow to stop fans of the boys from recognizing us. "Harry should be out front. Follow me," I say standing in front of the door. I burst through the door with the girls following. I spot Harry's car and run as best I can in heels to his car. I open the passenger's door and hop in. I slam the car door just as the girls do the same. "I see you've picked some people up on the way," Harry says smiling at Alyssa. "Yup," I say as Harry starts to drive back to the hotel. No one speaks for a minute or two. "So no ones gonna tell me how it went?" Harry asks. "Nope. Gotta wait and hear it with the rest of the boys," I say. "Aw, but Liam and Zayn are down at the gym!" Harry whines. "I got it," Maya says I assume dialing Liam. We pull up behind the hotel just as Maya hangs up. We hop out of the car and Alyssa runs to Harry's side. "I'm so glad you're okay," I hear Alyssa whisper to Harry. I tune out to the rest and sooner or later we get to our hotel room. Harry unlocks the door and walks in, with Alyssa, Maya, and I behind him. Niall's head pops out from the kitchen. He runs to me and spins me around. He places me down as I laugh, "Niall, I just spoke to you an hour ago!" "Yea but I didn't wake up next to you this morning and I got worried," Niall pouts holding my right hand. "Well I'm with you know," I smile. Liam, Zayn, and Louis burst through the hotel room door. Liam and Maya run into each other's arms. "Why are you guys out of breath?" Alyssa asks from next to Harry and Zayn. Niall and I walk over to the three boys out of breath. I place my left hand on Louis's back since he's bent over trying to catch his breath. "Fans chased us all the way down the hall. Paul and Mark got them to go back downstairs," Zayn says as soon as he can breath properly. "Are you guys okay?" I ask as Louis stands straight. "Peachy," Louis says sarcastically. "Hey, at least Liam didn't get his ear nearly ripped off this time," I shrug. The four boys and I burst out laughing as Liam glares at us but then joins us. "True," Liam says when we stop laughing. We walk over to the couch and sit down. From left to right, it's Alyssa and Harry on the love seat, Niall, me, and Louis on the couch, Liam and Maya on the other love seat and Zayn leaning against the fire place. "So what did Simon say?" Liam asks. The three of us look at each other. "He just wanted to sign us all as a band," Maya shrugs. "Are you serious?!" The boys shout at the same time. "Yup. Sarah thought of the name Torn Silent," Alyssa says. "This is not gonna end well," Louis says. "I know," I say. "What do you mean?" Maya asks. "Simon's gonna want at least one of you single to get fans buying your album," Niall says. "Not necessarily. That's what you do for a boy band. Your fans are mainly girls. Ours will be girls also," Alyssa says. "And those girls are gonna want to see that we can manage a band, keep the media happy, and a relationship. And in your case, a future marriage," Maya says. "Well, now all we have to do is right some songs," Alyssa says. "That'll be easy. I already have some I want to go over with you-" I'm interrupted by Liam's phone ringing. He takes his arm that's around Maya's shoulders and walks into the kitchen to answer it. I lean into Niall's side since his arm's around my waist. Liam comes back a few minute later. "Yea. I'll tell them. Bye," Liam says hanging up. "That was Paul. He said that we have to go do the  1DDay we never did and that we have to go to New York tonight for it," Liam says. "I'll call Simon," Alyssa says looking at Maya and me while standing up. "Why is she calling Simon?" Harry asks as Alyssa leaves. "We said that we'll go back to New York if you guys come with us when Simon asked if we wanted to go since he has an office not that far from there," Maya says. I don't even have to look at Niall to know that he's smiling. I look down at my engagement ring and smile. "Oh my god! Is that the ring?!" Maya squeals. "Yea. You wanna see it?" I ask sitting up straight. "Of course!" she says getting out of Liam's grip and sitting in the spot Louis and I made for her. She sits down and grabs my hand. She screams, "Oh my god! It's beautiful! You got the right ring for her, Niall." "I got a little help from a friend," Niall says as I look at Louis. Louis's in a deep conversation with Harry, Liam, and Zayn. "Come with me," Maya says grabbing Liam's hand after she walks over to him. "Where?" Liam asks. "To my hotel room! I need to pack!" Maya says. "We're leaving in two hours," Alyssa says walking into the living room. Maya drags Liam out if the hotel room. "Harry, you're helping me pack," Alyssa says dragging Harry out of the hotel room. "I better get going too. I'll see ya guys in two hours," Louis says. "Bye, boo bear!" I shout. "Bye babe!" Louis shouts back as he leaves. "Might as well start packing," Zayn says. Niall and I stand up as Zayn goes to his room to pack. Niall and I go to our room and start packing. Best 2 days of my life ever by far.
