4 years later (they're now 18!!)

Ariana's pov

"Mum I can't believe that I'm going on tour tomorrow" I said to my mum who was smiling brightly at me, "I know baby, I'm so proud of you and all you've accomplished over the past couple of years" my mum gushed, "You're growing into a beautiful, talented, smart young woman and I couldn't be prouder" she said, I smiled, "Im going to miss you" I said, "I'll miss you too baby, but you'll have so much fun and I bet you'll make lots of new friends and your fans will adore you" she said, I smiled and hugged her tightly.

"Ill miss your cuddles" I said giggling, "And i'll miss yours, now ill have to cuddle your dad and he hates cuddles" mum said laughing, I smiled, "Okay go get some rest, you have a big day tomorrow" mum said, "I have to call tori" I said referring to my only real friend, she's been my best friend for four years, we became friends about a week after the incident with him.

I don't like saying his name anymore.

It just brings back memories that I don't need to remember.

Memories I tried so hard to forget, but couldn't, so I just lived with it in the back of my mind.

"Okay, go to sleep after the call though, its already after eleven and you're up at five to leave" mum said, I chuckled, "I know mum, night" I said kissing her cheek and going to my room.

I called tori and she answered, "Hey Ariana" she said, "Hey tori, I can't believe I leave tomorrow! In six hours I have to get up to leave" I said laughing, she chuckled, "Im going to miss you so much" she said, "ill miss you too tori, but you have other friends" I said laughing, "But you're my best friend Ariana, none of them can compare to you and your madness" she said giggling, I chuckled, "I am a pretty mad person" I said laughing.

We talked for about a half hour before I was almost falling asleep and told tori I would call her when I find out who I'm going on tour with and such.

I put my phone on charge and looked around my room, this was my last night sleeping in my own bed for about 7 months. This was going to be hard.

"Ariana wake up honey!" my mum yelled, I groaned, "Ariana it's after five already, you have to leave in a half hour" she yelled, "Fine I'm up" I shouted in a groggy voice before going to the bathroom and washing my face and brushing my teeth.

I applied makeup and straightened my hair, yeah I know, totally pointless since I'm travelling, but my manager Mark told me to make myself presentable I'm case fans stop me, therefore my makeup, hair and outfit must be on point, even for travelling.

I put a pair of black leggings and a slouchy jumper on before putting on socks and converse, I went to my phone and checked the time, half past five, I had to leave in five minutes so I could be just on time, but knowing my mum she would make me be early.

"Ariana come on we're leaving" my mum yelled, exactly my point, she has to be early for everything, unlike me who is late for basically everything.

I never have been good at timekeeping.

I grabbed my phone and charger, shoving the charger into my backpack which contained a laptop, charger for the laptop, my phone charger, headphones, my purse, a couple of bags of my favourite sweets ever, gummy bears, and a can of redbull, also some makeup and wipes for my face.

"Ariana come on" my mum yelled, "Just coming" I said grabbing my backpack and putting my phone in the front bit of it since I didn't have pockets, I walked downstairs and saw my mum and dad standing at the doorway, "Come on or you'll be late" my mum said, I followed her out and we waited in the car for my dad to lock the door.

"Are you excited?" my dad asked, "Very, I really want to know who I'm going to be touring with, I hope whoever it is, is nice" I said, "I'm sure they will be honey, your manager has a good taste in people and wouldn't hire someone who wasn't nice" he said, "Or people, it could be a band" I said, "Whoever it is, I'm sure they'll be nice people" he said, I smiled and chuckled as I pulled my phone out to text tori, even though she was asleep.

To toriii: I'm going to miss you :(

I slumped in my seat for the next half hour while we drove to the airport where I was meeting Mark and the other singer/band or whoever I was going on tour with, mark told me he didn't want any of us to know who we were going on tour with until we were actually leaving for tour, in case we dropped out due to a conflict before the tour begins or due to past conflict or something like that.

"We're here honey" my mum said, "Come on, we'll help you with your suitcases" dad said, I got out and grabbed my backpack and a small suitcase while my mum and dad took a big suitcase each, we began wheeling them into the airport to the spot mark told us to meet at.

We were there just on time, we had to check in ourselves but it wasn't exactly hard, I just told them my name, handed them my passport and booking things, put my cases on the thing and watched them slide away.

"Bye Ariana, have fun" my mum said before we got to the bit, "Bye mum, bye dad, I love you guys" I said hugging them, "We love you too" they both said as they hugged me one last time, I waved to them as they walked away and I walked towards mark who was standing alone.

"Where's the other act?" I asked, "Probably late, they always are, a bit like you actually, you're on time today which surprises me" mark said, I giggled, "So its a band? And I'm not always late" I said, "Yes it's a band, and yes you are, you are always late for everything" he said, "Well my mum made me get up early and leave early so we would be here on time" I said laughing, he chuckled.

Five minutes later four boys stood in front of me.

Four all-too-familiar boys.

Luke, Ashton, Michael and Calum stood in front of me.
