CHANCES (L.T.)

~~~FORTY FIVE~~~

Guys I want you to remember not to looking into this book from a geographic aspect. I have picked random cities in the US for this book so.....

ONE MONTH LATER!

Austin's POV. 

We reached Chicago a few hours ago. Dad went to sleep for a bit. I was chilling in my room with Adam. I was scrolling through my phone. There was nothing to do. 

"What do I do? I am bored!" I groan out. 

"Do whatever you want I dont care" Adam says.

"You are of no help" I say. 

"I know" He says smiling like an innocent person.

A silence settles between us before he says "Do a insta live of something" He says. 

"I dont know.... I would be there just talking to myself" I say.

"Yeah right. Have you seen the number of followers you have?" He says.

"Well yeah but that is because I am a Tomlinson" I say with a shrug. 

"Not my fault you told me to help you find a way to kill time" He says. 

"I guess a live cant hurt" I say. 

"Just do it!" Adam says. 

"Okay okay" I say going to. 

I pull out my phone and go to my insta. I go and click the go live thing. 

I sit there on my bed. 

"Dude there is no one watching! I told you it wasn't gonna work!" I tell Adam who had made himself comfortable on the couch.

I look back at the camera to see I have over 1000 viewers. 

"Fook" I mutter. 

"See I told you people would watch" Adam says looking at his phone. 

"Um... What do I do?" I ask Adam as the comments start to roll in.

"I dont know you figure" He says.

"Is that the only thing you know how to say?" I ask. To that all he does is shrug.

I look back at my phone to see I already have 4000 people watching. 

"I have one question to you guys..... How did I get 4000 people to watch?" I ask. 

Most of the comments said that they wanted to see me and see what I sounded like. 

"Okay... Can you guys tell me where all of you guys are from?" I ask trying to figure out what to do cause right now I feel like I am talking to no one. 

Comments started to come in. They said US, UK, Italy, Germany etc. 

"So do any of you live here is Chicago? If yes do you know what I could do here for fun?" I ask them and yet again comments come in saying I should go to the millennium Park and also try the pizza here. 

"Millennium Park huh? What about the 360 observation deck? Is it any good? I love having a great view"

The comments say that I should go there. Maybe I should go there I think to myself. 

I shift my position scanning through the comments that were coming and keeping an eye on the number of people watching. Right now we were at 12,000 people.

The most comments that were coming were that did I play the guitar I look behind me to see my guitar was there.

"Oh yeah I play the guitar" I say. The next comments that come in are do you sing? Can you please sing for us?

"I dont think you want to hear me sing guys I am really bad I will probably make you go deaf" I say in a jokingly manner. I dont really know I am not that good or not never really sung anywhere. 

The comments where like 'Please sing for us I am sure you aren't bad' 'Why would you say that! I can tell you will sing really well' 'please sing for us' the comments continued to ask me to sing for them. 

I huff and say "I will sing for you if you guys can get me up to 20,000 viewers" 

The viewers were all saying that 20000 was a easy task and no kidding like 15 minutes later I had over 20,000 people tuning in. 

"Okay like I said I will cover a song" I say taking my guitar. 

"Oi Adam can you hold the camera for me?" I ask him.

"Do I have a choice?" He asks with a sigh.

"NOPE!" I say popping the P.

"Oh everyone this is Adam my so called head of security" I say.

I think for a while which song should I do. 

"Is everyone okay with Cold Water?" I ask. there was a lot of Yes! coming in.

(A.N. The vid bellow is Austin singing Cold water)

  I stop singing abruptly cause I dont remember the lyrics for the rest of song. 

"Well that is all the lyrics I remember guys" I say

"Mate your battery is running out" Adam says. 

"Oh shoot guys I have to leave! I actually enjoyed doing this maybe I will do this more often. You guys have a been so great! Bye!" I say and end the live stream.

"Well that was fun" I say.

"So now you understand why you should listen to me more often?" He asks. 

"Honest answer no" I say with a shrug and get out of my bed to get something to drink from the fridge that the suit had provided us with. 

"Lord Save Me" I hear him mumble. 

When I reach the fridge I pull out a bottle of some sort of Glucose Juice. At that moment Dad stumbled out of his room his hair a mess still wearing the same cloths he was wearing when he went to sleep.

"Oh hey dad you wont believe I did this Live-" I start off but he cuts me off. 

"Austin I am sorry I cant stay I have to leave I am already late for the recording session I have" He says.

"Dont wait up for me order something for yourself for dinner tonight" He says before he practically runs to the door. 

"Nice talking to you dad" I mumble. 

This how it has been for most of the tour. There was no point on waiting on him to do something he was always at some sort of interview, photoshoot, recording session official dinner meetings to discuss up coming events for him etc. So I would mostly spend my time here alone in this way too expensive hotel suit. 

I sighed. So I went to the one spot which I go to no matter which ever hotel we are in. The Roof. 

The place was quiet as usual. No one was there. I walk over to the ledge and climb over and sit there. I get the view of the whole city from here. There was cars driving by down bellow. The usual spring breeze blew. I watched into a house that had a mother, father and a 7 year old child. They were all sitting in the living room while the child showed off his car toys. 

It was the moments like this when I was alone did I wonder what it would be like if mom was still here. Would I have ever met dad? What would it be like if dad had come back? Would everything that I had now be different? The one person I wanted to talk to about all these clouded thoughts was dad but he didn't have the time of the day for me. Well at least he did have it but not anymore. And in all honesty I dont want to bug him.
