"Grace, wake up!" Meredith says, and I crawl out of my actual bed, no bunk beds and walk into the bathroom.

I brush my teeth and brush my hair, and I then walk to my closet and pull out a black skater skirt, a brown tank top, a off white sweater, and tights that have hearts mid thigh. I then pull out my high heeled timberland style boots.

I tuck my tank top into the skirt, pulling on my sweater, I then hike up my tights, and tie up my boots. I go to the bathroom and put my hair into a ponytail. I then put on a white flower headband, it's cloth. I put on some tan eyeshadow and red lipstick. I then grab my phone and follow Meredith, Aislynne, Trin and Kenzie out and into New York.

"We have a performance today." Kenzie says, as we stop at Starbucks. Kenzie and I always get Starbucks, every morning. I order the mocha cookie crumble frappe and she gets the strawberries and creme frappe. We pay and leave, going into Time Square.

"Where is it?" I ask, sipping my drink.

"Elvis Duran. His radio station." Meredith answers, as we walk into a tall skyscraper. I nod and show security my pass. We then take the elevator to the 85th floor and walk out onto the floor.

"Get ready, because we have an interview and some fun stuff ahead." Aislynne says, and we all laugh, hug and then walk in the studio sucking in our breath.

We sit on the stools, in front of our own mic and I put the headphones on.

"Okay, Grace, the first question is for you, Are you and Michael Clifford over?" Elvis asks, smiling at me.

I gulp and feel a pain in my chest, I answer, "Uhm, no. That's a dumb question, who said we were?" I smile, and I catch Meredith glare at me. I said something I wasnt supposed....oh shit.

"Uhm, a reliable source, said you were with Dylan O'Brien." another worker says, smiling at me.

"Ha. No, I love my boyfriend, and I would never leave him, vice versa." I answer, crossing my arms refusing to answer any more questions.

"Uhm, Meredith you're dating Luke from 5SOS?" Elvis continues, looking at Meredith.

"Yeah, it's awesome that we both love music and exploring new stuff. I really like him." she answers, which is how I should've answered, but nope.

"Kenzie, you and Mrs.Irwin are close?" Elvis asks, turning to Kenzie.

"Yep! I stayed with her while everyone was on tour, to help with the kids." she laughs, smiling.

Aislynne and Trin get asked about their lives and such, and then we're out of the building and sitting in the middle of times square and Meredith is freaking out on me.

"GRACE! You can't act like that! Okay? You sounded like a bitch, you don't think we miss the boys and home? You think we wanted to leave so early? Well we didn't! But we couldn't just act like total ass holes! We actually have to keep it together! I will not hesitate to send you home for the rest of the time in New York, because you can't act like this." She scolds, and I nod and tear up as I walk away from here and in the direction of what I think is our penthouse.

My phone goes off and I answer it, it's my amazing boyfriend.

"What's this about you being rude to Elvis Duran?" He asks.

"Mikey, I'm sorry. I just wanna come home. I don't wanna be here, I miss you and mum and my brothers and sister. I miss Australia and I hate it here. I don't get any time to just sit and play Xbox or to play game cube and I wanna come home. I didn't even get to kiss you goodbye." I sob.

"Baby, it'll be over soon enough, you then come home and come on tour with us! You won't be without your family for long, okay?" he adds.

"Okay." I answer, sobbing and ending the call.

I walk into our building and take the elevator to our floor. I take my key out and unlock our door and I then walk into my room, shutting the door and laying on my bed.

----------------------------------

My bedroom door slams shut, and the next thing I know Kenzie is running into my room, jumping onto my bed. "GRACE WE HAVE TO GET TO THE AIRPORT, ITS AN EMERGENCY!" She yells, pulling me up and I nod wiping at my eyes.

"How long was I asleep?" I ask, standing up ad rushing to my drawers and picking out a pair of black jeans, a maroon velvet crop peplum top and floral platforms.

"You went to bed what around, 2:30 yesterday afternoon? It's 4:55 in the evening. So about 14 hours." she answers, I throw in my clothes, take off all make-up quickly and then I grab my phone and I'm rushing with her to the airport.

We get in and Kenzie rushes me to the gate. That's when I catch a glimpse of bright red hair. Something closes up in my throat, my chin starts to quiver and a tear slides down my cheek.

"Mikey?" I ask, crying slightly. He nods from about 500 feet away, and then I'm running towards him and I knock him down, on his butt.

"Omg, baby girl, was it this bad?" He asks, holding me. I nod crying into his shoulder.

"Mikey, stand up mate. I need to hug my sister." I hear Ash say, I help Mikey up and then I bear hug my brother.

"Awe, baby. It's okay, we're gonna be here for abit." He whispers, hugging me tight.

I then hug all the boys, but I then go back to my brother and hug him again, tight and for a very long time.
