Summer Fling

Chapter 30

"What?" Mitch raised an eyebrow.

"Shush!" Tiffani scolded.

"Paris, I'll get on twitter right now and take back every word. I'll tell everyone how much I love you! In fact, I'm booking a flight right now and coming to see you!" Liam promised.

"Don't" Paris instructed. "You've got a job to do. People are counting on you. You can't let them down."

"But what about us?" Liam cried.

"I guess you were right" Paris squeaked. "I should have gone with you because clearly we can't handle long distance. Liam," she sighed. "I'm sorry, but you obviously don't have room in your life for a summer fling."

"Paris, I-"

"Goodbye Liam" she hung up. Tears already stained her cheeks. She looked at Tiffani, who gave her a sympathetic smile. Paris shook her head and began sobbing. Immediatly, Tiffani and Mitch had their arms around her in a tight hug.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the world....

"Paris!" Liam yelled. The call was over. He groaned and threw his phone down on the bed.

"Hey! What did that phone ever do to.you mate?" Louis asked. Liam glared at him. Louis frowned. "Liam?"

Ariel and Harry walked into the hotel room, holding hands. "Liam, did you finally get a hold of Paris?"

Liam skowled at Ariel. "Yes" he spat.

Her eyes widened. "It didn't go well?"

"We're over."

And soon, his band mates surrounded him, offering comfort, but he rejected them all. "I'm going to the gym."

About a month later.....

"And that concludes the final tour meeting," a middle aged man in a suit finished. The One Direction boys had been sittinng in the conference room for a little over two hours while they listened to important people from their management and label drone on aboit their upcomming tour, starting in two weeks. The only thing left for the boys to do was to pack and and meet the opening band.

"Now, we intervoewed all of the bands you guys suggested and about a month ago we had one agree to open for you" the man in the suit continued. "These guys are a punk rock style band, they all play their own instruments, they're Austrailian, they've been in LA for a little while, and they are practically unheard of. They're sound is perfect for your audience, making this a good investment for you, plus they'll get some plublicity."

"Who is it?" Zayn asked.

"A band called 4HOW" the suit man.replied. "They are actually here with some of their management team. Would you like to meet them?"

"No, we like sitting here in boredem" Louis sassed.

The suit man rolled his eyes and tapped the button on the intercom. "Uh, yes, Julia? Please send in the people her for 4HOW."

In a few seconds the door opened and a familiar face walked in holding the hand of a familiar summer camp counselor. The boys of One Dorection cheered. Harry and Niall stood up to meet them.

"Mitch! Tiffani! What's up?" Harry asked.

Three guys followed the couple in. "We're attending a meeting for some band we're opening for" Mitch joked.

"Wait, you're 4HOW?" Harry asked.

Mitch chuckled. "Yep. I'm the lead singer/guitar player. This is my buddy Alex, our drummer" he pointed to the first guy behind him. "And the other two are Jason and Hayden, our bassists and our giutarist." Tiffani cleared her throat. "Oh and this is Tiffani, our stylist. But you already know her." Tiffani smiled. "The other two members of our management team will be here momentarily, they went to get us some coffee."

Harry nodded. "So this is your band? 4HOW?"

"Yup" Mitch nodded.

"Dude," Niall spoke. "What kind of a name is 4HOW?"

"Well it was originally 4HJM after our initials but then Alex joined the band and at our first gig, when they asked us to write our name diwn so they could announce us, somebody had terrible handwriting" Mitch eyed Hayden.

"Hey! Don't blame me, I'm a high school drop out!" Hayden defended.

"Sorry we're late the line at Syarbucks was so long!" a femwnine.voice inturrupted. Everyone turned to face Jackie, who had just entered the room carrying a drink carrier full of coffee drinks. Niall's jaw dropped.

"Oh yes" Mitch spoke. "This is Jacqualine. She's our official band photographer and media overseer."

Jackie smirked and began passing out drinks. She completely ignored Niall, who couldn't take his eyes iff her.

"Jackie! Baybee!" Louis pretended, standing up with outstretched arms. "I've missed you."

She laughed and returned the hug. "I've missed you too King of Hide n Seek."

Everyone looked as another girl entered the room. Liam, who had sat quietly through the meeting stood uo in shock. Could it be?

"And here's our personal secretary/mommy on the road, Paris" Mitch introduced.

"Hello Liam" she spoke quietly.
