Last show of tour

Emily's POV:
Today is the day. The day i tell my fans my past. Im nervous, but i know they will support me, they always have

Right now im backstage, with all my best friends

My palms are sweaty and i keep tapping my foot on the ground

"Emily, you will be fine. They will always support you" bailee smiled reassuringly

Everyone else nodded agreeing with her

I took a deep breath and nodded

"Emily! Its time!" My manager said motioning me to go on stage

I jolted out of my seat and jogged to my manager, who was standing next to the entrance to stage

I grabbed the microphone and with one last breath, ran on stage

Ill miss this

"Hey guyys!" I shouted in the microphone

I earned a bunch of screams making me smile wider

I introduced everyone else on stage

The boys sang a couple of songs the fans requested and we all played a bunch of games, just like every show

By now, it was time for Q&A, and i grow more and more nervous

"Okay guys so now we are gonna have a Q&A, so raise your hand if you wanna ask a question and to who" i smiled nervously

A bunch of hands raised

"Umm the girl in the blue shirt" i said pointing to the girl

"Um i wanted to ask jonah if he could marry me" she said shyly

Everyone laughed and aw'ed

"Of course you can" jonah smiled

We answered a couple more simple questions

"Hmm what about the girl holding the huge sign" i smiled

"Um i wanted to ask you, why dont you ever tell us anything about your past?" She asked

I took a sharp breath

"Well, because my past wasn't the best, and i think i owe you guys an explanation of everything, cause you know im very open to you guys" i said slowly looking around at the crowd

A lot of them nodded and some of them said yes

I looked at my best friends who had a reassuring face

I nodded at them

"So, when i was thirteen, my mum started getting drunk all the time. She first started with verbal abuse, and slowly slowly she started physically abusing me" i stopped and looked at the crowd

They gasped, and some of them were yelling things i couldn't understand

I continued "me bailee and lena were all best friends during school, but i never told them about it because i didn't want them to worry"

I looked at the girls who had sad faces remembering those times

"Well, when i was 16, i had a breaking point. I was so stressed, i had failed my history test, and i knew that if my grades weren't higher i would've been held back. I tried so hard to study and be good, but with my mum abusing me, it was so difficult. I felt like a failure. I didnt know what to do anymore" i stopped and chocked back some tears

I looked at the guys and they all had sadness written on their face

I glanced at the crowd who had been dead silent, hearing me out
