Chapter 32: Rehearsals, OLLG & Niall Horan

- Payton -

We were closing in on the opening concert of the Believe tour, and everyone was getting nervous.

Justin had been off these past couple weeks. His lovely little Avalanna hadn't been feeling well lately, and Justin had planned on bringing her along for the first show ... but after that news his plan had been scrapped. Ever since then, he's been extremely upset.

"Justin?" I ask, as I knock on his room door. He opens it slowly, still very upset. When the door is fully open, I see his sad expression.

"Is it time for rehearsals already?" Justin asks, as he lets me into his room. I lie down on his bed and scroll through Instagram as I wait for him to change.

"Yeah it is, I'm driving you there today. I'm also driving you home."

"Alright," Justin mumbles, and I know he's ready when he taps my head. "Let's go," he says quietly as he slides on a pair of sunglasses and puts his phone in his pocket. I sigh and follow behind him, shutting his bedroom door before I follow him down the stairs. While we're in the foyer, I stop walking and my sudden action makes Justin stop as well. He turns around and I open my arms, motioning for him to come and hug me.

"I'm here for you, alright?" I whisper to him, and then bury my face in chest. I feel him place his chin on the top of my head. I can tell he actually feels at ease and that makes me a bit happy.

No matter what we've been through, Justin still is my best friend and I love him dearly.

"Thanks Payton," he whispers and I smile.

"Anything for you, Justin. You're my best friend, don't forget that," I laugh and Justin smiles, pulling away from the hug.

"I think you've earned your Starbucks. Come on, I'll drive."

"Justin I wanna driveeeee."

"You can drive home. Aren't you staying here until we leave for the first concert?" he asks and I shrug.

"Probably," I say, taking my phone out of my pocket when I feel it buzz. I look down at the screen and smile at the name on screen.

A text from Niall.


From: niall <33
Hey babe, just wanted to let you know that you're beautiful and I love you so much <3 see you at 12 xx

"Is it from Niall?" Justin asks and I nod my head as I type my reply to him. "As much as I prefer you and me, I think you and Niall are good for each other."

"Aw Justin, that's so cute! Thank you," I smile and he laughs, messing up my hair.

"No problem," he states and then unlocks his range rover - you know, one of his 483474738 cars. "Now get in the car, we can't be late!"

I laugh and hop in the passenger seat, Justin's fingers tapping the wheel as he waits for me to get my seatbelt on.

"Ready?"

I nod my head and turn on the radio.

"Ready."

We arrived at the rehearsal studio about 10 minutes early. The only people there were Alfredo, the dancers, Scooter and Allison, so Justin and I join them. Actually, Alfredo, Justin and I were sitting on the floor in a circle, just hanging out and taking selfies - and I also had a little photo-shoot with Justin, Alfredo forced us to.

"Are you gonna send me the pictures or what?" I ask, making the two boys laugh. Fredo nods his head and then a couple minutes later, I get a text with most of the pictures we took. Of course, I pick the best one of Justin and I and post it on Twitter.

@paytonswift: reunited with one of the greatest people! @justinbieber i'm honoured to be a part of this tour :)

While some people tweeted how upset they were with me joining the tour, a majority of fans were happy for me. Their positivity made me smile, Justin has some pretty amazing girls in his fanbase. Anyway, after 20 minutes, rehearsals had finally started. Alfredo and I sat off to the side, Alfredo taking pictures while I was watching to make sure that everyone was on beat - like actually everyone, from the band to the dancers and Justin, everything had to be perfect.

"Beauty from the east, beautiful confessions of the priest
Beast, beauty from the streets, we don't get deceased
Every time a beauty on the beats

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's go, let's go)
Body rock, girl, I wanna feel your body rock

Cause all... (all I need is love) I need
Is a beauty and a beat
Who can make my life complete
It's all... (all I need is you) about you,
When the music makes you move
Baby, do it like you do
Cause..." the song ends, the beat slowly fading as the dance moves end. They had been working on this choreography for about fifteen minutes, getting through the other songs quickly. But everyone seemed to be getting frustrated with the "Beauty and a Beat" dance, which sucks because the song has the best choreography.
