Sienna
-------
"Birdy, c'mere for a second." Matt nodded to where he and Oli were sitting, playing video games. Sienna felt like stabbing Max in his eyes for ever getting the rest of You Me At Six to call her Birdy. Already, it was her name to YMAS, Oli, Lee, Jordan, Sam, Cam, Alan, and Phil. Tino preferred to call her 'Si-dawg' or 'Lil' Carlile'. Her name was 'Sienna' to the rest.
"What do you want?" She asked, plopping on the couch next to Oli. Oli turned his head and smiled at her before returning to his game.
"Nothing. Your phone's just been buzzing constantly and it's been annoying me." Matt said, using his head to point to her phone sitting on the couch.
"That's where it's been." Sienna sighed, standing and grabbing the phone. Already, she had used Austin's phone to text it or call it to find it. Avery had been texting her too.
"Birdy?" Oli questioned. Sienna smirked. Every time he called her Birdy, his Sheffield accent was so thick that it sounded like: Burhay.
"Yeah?" She replied, sending a text to Avery explaining that her phone was gone and sent one to Austin saying she found her phone.
"Oos Averah?"
Who's Avery? "Avery?" Sienna looked up at him and he nodded. "Oh. He's just some guy-"
"OOO!" Danny squeaked, coming into the room. "Are we having girl talk? I love girl talk!" Danny placed himself next to Matt and snuggled up to him. "Who're we talking about?"
"Avery." Both Matt and Oli said in unison. Matt paused the game and smirked at Sienna who blushed deeply.
"Well, who's Avery?"
"Just a guy." she groaned. "Seriously."
"Hmmmm." Oli said thoughtfully. "Just a guy? Did you notice that all of the messages he sent you seemed to be one-sided conversations?"
Sienna cocked an eyebrow and opened her phone, looking through her messages. They were the ones she missed from Avery.
Really?
That's so sweet. You're cute too.
Nothing just bored waiting for my brother to stop being an asshole.
Yeah. I'll cuddle with you if you wanna.
Haha. Okay. Bye, babe.
Sienna's eyes widened and she glared at Oli and Matt who were flushed red.
"You were talking to him?" She squeaked, covering her mouth.
Oli nodded. "Sorry, Birdy-"
"What'd you guys say?" Sienna whispered, flicking through the messages. "Anything inappropriate?" Matt smirked.
"No. He just really wants to cuddle now." He winked at Oli causing Sienna's mind to jumble. "In't that right, Oli?"
Danny snickered and gave Sienna one of his innocent eye rolls. "I wasn't the one who text him, love."
Sienna sneered in their direction and turned off her phone when she realized that Avery wasn't going to be texting her back because he was in the shower.
"Sienna?" called Austin. Sienna wrinkled her nose and stood up. "Can you some here for a minute?"
"Yeah, hold on." Sienna replied, walking out of the dark lounge. She walked her way up the stairs and finally stood in front of her father who was smiling down at her with slight ease.
"So, you happy I'm not calling you Birdy yet?" Austin laughed, watching as Sienna blushed. Max giggled loudly from his bunk and Sienna narrowed her eyes at him.
"Shut up, Maxine." Sienna threatened and Max gasped, wrenching back his curtain.
"Ooo! Maxine! Such a lovely comeback! Come up with that on your own, Birdy?" he stuck out his tongue childishly and Sienna was strongly reminded of Jack Barakat. "You're just mad because Birdy actually started to catch on!" and with that, he leaped down the stairs landing with a loud thump and a strangled: ow.
Sienna laughed and made sure Max stood back up before running off to cause more damage before turning back to Austin. "What's up?"
"So, YMAS wanted to know if you could sit on stage and work on close ups." Austin said, scratching his nose and leaning against the bedposts. "Josh also wanted to know if he could take you out to dinner some time. As friends, that would be creepy as hell if he had other intentions." His eyes darkened at that thought making Sienna laugh at Austin's overprotectiveness.
"It's okay. I'll stand sidestage. But I won't go directly on it."
"Why not?" whined Dan's voice from the top bunk. Sienna rolled her eyes.
"Because it makes me uncomfortable." she lowered her eyes and stared at her feet which were barely touching Austin's. "I feel like they're all judging me."
"The feeling will pass, love." Josh said, squeezing by Austin and Sienna, winking casually at her before climbing into Dan's bunk. Sienna looked confused and Austin just stared at the bunk waiting for something to happen.
Josh started banging his fist on the bunk wall and he made some loud seductive moans. Austin pulled out his phone quickly and started recording the moment between Josh and Dan. Although you couldn't see the men themselves, Sienna laughed silently, covering her mouth as Josh started dirty talking Dan.
"Ooo, Dan. You're so sexy. Do you work out? I didn't know blondes could be so big."
"Ew! Josh! Get the fuck off me. Seriously-I don't know where that mouth of yours has been."
"I know where it's gonna be!" Josh cheered. Sienna blushed deeply and closed her eyes, only opening them when she heard a loud thud and saw Josh lying on his stomach, groaning. Dan poked his head out and stuck out his tongue.
"I think you forgot that I'm a one-pump-dump, and my motto is a hump-and-dump." Dan reminded Josh kindly. "So just remember, Joshie. If you have thirty seconds and you don't know what to do, you know where to find me!"
Sienna tried to breathe through her giggles, but it was getting harder, seeing how Josh raised his arm in a fist from the ground and brought it down in a swinging motion. "Yes! Score!"

POV Austin
-------
After uploading the video to twitter, Austin wandered off to the venue with the other bands as Asking Alexandria performed. The set list was actually kind of cool; Asking Alexandria, You Me At Six, Of Mice and Men, then Bring Me The Horizon. Sometimes, Asking Alexandria went in OMAM's place, sometimes YMAS went in AA's place, but mixing it up was good for both the bands and the fans.
Danny Worsnop was doing a lot of clean vocals now a days, so most of the songs that he performed were a mix of heavy and soft which got the crowd on their feet and singing along. Since this tour had a lot of major labels, Asking Alexandria had to leave during the middle of BMTH's tour and wouldn't be filled in with a another band, leaving the rest of the bands to try and figure out how to make their set lists another ten or fifteen minutes longer.
Austin sighed heavily and ran his hand through his hair. Sienna was definitely coming out of her shell. It was amazing to think that just a few months ago, he didn't know he was a father. Now…well, now he couldn't think of any other way to describe himself aside from the word: father.
He opened the green room door and Sienna quickly darted out, holding her camera. Austin raised his eyebrows in shock and she gave him an apologetic grin.
"Sorry. Just have to go snap some photo's with Tom. We forgot that we're celebrating Sam's birthday today." Tom walked out of the room after her, his camera around his neck as well. Austin nodded, just remembering as well and Sienna leaned up, kissing his cheek before bounding off after a giggling Tom.
Austin rubbed at his chin thoughtfully, wondering where her affection came from. He then opened the green room door again to sit down and discuss the change of the setlist with his band.
Tino was stretched out on the couch, tapping his drumsticks in midair hitting nothing. Alan was beside him, on his phone as usual, Phil was tuning an acoustic guitar and Aaron was singing to himself softly. Josh was jumping up and down and Oli was making fun of his feeble attempts. Lee was silently in the corner playing with his fingers while Jordan and Matt Nicholls played Rock Paper Scissors Shoot. Matt Kean was in the small bathroom that was provided in the green room.
Austin found a spot next to Oli as he kept throwing nuts and pretzels at Josh's exercises.
"How's it going?" Oli asked, turning to Austin and nibbling on a pretzel. Austin shrugged slowly and scratched under his eye softly.
"Good, I guess."
"How's Birdy?" Josh asked quietly, now stretching his legs.
"She's good. I think." Austin replied, thinking hard about Sienna for a few seconds. "She seems fine."
"Has she had another-episode?" Oli brought his head in slightly closer so they wouldn't be so loud. Austin felt helpless as he shrugged.
"I've heard her cry a few times when she thinks I'm asleep. I want to talk about it with her, but I don't want her pissed off at me. You know?"
Josh and Oli nodded in unison like it was a practiced move. It probably was.
"Well, is it okay if I take her for dinner?" Josh smiled softly. "You never got back to me on that one."
"Yeah." Austin nodded his head feeling a little dizzy. "Sure. I think she's okay with it. She seemed a little excited about it." Austin smirked at Josh. "She has a little fangirl thing for you."
Josh blushed and went limpwristed. "Oh, girl. I have all of the Birdy's up in mah crib." He said, trying to do a really and american accent. Oli chuckled along with Austin.
"Let me try." Oli said through his thick Sheffield accent. "Erm, Hiye! I ayhm Ah-Mer-rick-can!"
"Amerriccan?" Austin choked out through his giggles. "I think that's not right."
Oli slumped in his seat with a pout. "You try to do a Sheffield accent. Go on, then."
Austin cleared his throat and wrinkled his nose. "'Ello! Oo 'ant some 'ea, yeah?"
Oli looked slightly impressed. "Not bad,"
"I know." Austin stuck out his tongue. "I practice-"
"YOU ME AT SIX! TEN MINUTES!" called the stage manager. Max squealed.
"Ten minutes!" He grabbed at random people and kissed their cheeks. "Ten minutes!"
"Stop!" scolded Matt Barnes, flicking Max in the nose. Max pouted and grabbed his water bottle chugging the drink.
"Let's go! Let's go! Let's gogogogogo!"
"Calm down." Josh laughed, rolling his eyes. He grabbed Max's butt and squeezed it before sending Austin a seductive look. "Be ready to play after us, Austie!" he wriggled his eyebrows and leaned forward. "Insert perverted joke-"
"That's what she said!" Alan shouted causing Austin to lower his head into his hands, laughing through his fingers.
The door flew open and Sienna walked into the room, her smile wide and bits of cake in her hair.
"…Sienna?" Austin asked cautiously. She giggled and sat next to him and Oli, taking out her camera.
"Look!"
Oli casually picked out pieces of cake from her hair and licked the frosting from his thumb as Sienna turned on her camera showing him and Austin the pictures.
Sam Bettley's eyes were wide as James pinned him to the ground.
Sam's eyes got wider as Danny marched out with a bottle of champagne.
His eyes shut as Danny sprayed him with the bottle held at his crotch.
His eyes were opened again when Ben and Cam held a large cake and smirked at Sam.
The next picture was Sam standing, soaked in champagne and his face dripping in cake. Austin grinned.
"Those are awesome pictures, Si!"
"Thanks." She laughed and wiped her forehead which had some frosting on it as well. "Yeah, Ben thought it would be funny to put frosting in my face. And cake in my hair."
"I think it's hilarious." Oli told her seriously as he pulled more crumbs from her hair and began throwing it at Lee. Sienna smirked and leaned back into the couch.
"Ugh. I'm so excited for this show." She said devilishly. Austin quirked an eyebrow.
"Why?"
"No reason." She said and Oli laughed, patting her thigh.
"Yep. No reason at all…"
