I should not be writing this at 3 in the morning, this is usually when I come up with my Satanic ideas.

Anyway, surprise & hello! Welcome to the MELA sequel! It's been a while. It's different to ABFOS mainly bc it starts way earlier before ABFOS did & it shows you parts that happened between MELA & ABFOS.

So... Without further ado...

Chapter 1
Can You Keep A Secret?

After the conclusion Rydel and Connor had came to on the night of Ross and Brad's wedding, they spoke to everyone in both bands and near enough everyone agreed on the same thing. Right now, they were all preparing to go on the final world tour both bands would take together starting in Australia and finishing in the USA.

It had been almost two months since Ross and Brad had gotten married and because they were all going on tour they decided not to live together in their own place till it was done as it would make more sense that way instead of getting an apartment or house that wouldn't be used for a year and a bit – but Brad did go back to America and stay with Ross for a while up until there was only a week left till tour started where then Brad went back to England to rehearse with James, Tristan and Connor and then they would all meet R5 in Australia.

And boy were Tristan and Connor more than ecstatic about his arrival after the little discover they made the day he left England.

Brad had already got to the place where they were supposed to be practising but the others weren't. James was trying to get there before Connor and Tristan did and they began to question Brad and suffocate him with talking about what they found out, even though they said they wouldn't but James knows they will. He'd rather them not as he knows it'll make Brad feel uncomfortable.

When James arrived, he was about to go in when he turned around to a voice calling his name. He seen Connor and Tristan both coming towards him. "Is Brad here yet?" Tristan asked.

"Why..?"

"I'm wondering. Plus, we can't really practice much if he's not here."

"He might be..."

"Is that a yes?" Tristan asked.

"Yeah."

Tristan tried to barge pass James to go inside but James stopped him "I know what you're going to do and I won't let you." James said.

Tristan cocked his head, pretending to be confused "What am I going to do? Talk? Practice songs? We're not going to do anything horrible."

James raised his brow "Yeah, but it's what's going to be contained in that 'talking' which concerns me."

Tristan rolled his eyes "Oh, whatever." He pushed James out of the way and made his way into the practice room.

James quickly followed him along with Connor where they walked into the practice room and found Brad playing on his phone with his guitar hanging off him by its strap. Brad looked up when he heard the door open, putting his phone away "Hey."

"Hey, you. We have a lot to talk about and catch up on, huh?" Tristan said, walking over to him.

"I guess..?"

Tristan folded his arms, looking interested "So, how've you been? Has anything changed? Anything different that we don't know about?"

"Tristan..." James said, warningly. Tristan rolled his eyes and walked away from Brad, deciding not to question him or try to pull what he found out, out of Brad.

Connor stepped forwards "Hey, how are the boys?" Connor asked. He hadn't been on the phone to Rydel for a while so he hasn't had the chance to find out.

"They're fine." Brad said.

"Did they have a good first birthday?" He asked. Again, he couldn't be there with them to celebrate it. He kind of felt shit about it, but he's sure he can make it up to them both when he see's them again in Australia. Brad nodded in response to Connor's question.

James decided to get in on the conversation "How's Sally?"

"She's fine too," Brad said. For some reason he could sense that something was up. Not by the way they were all speaking but by the way they were acting and talking to him – especially the way Tristan did when he came in. "Is everyone okay?" Brad asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"You're all acting weird... Or maybe I'm being paranoid."

"And why would you be paranoid for?" Tristan asked, in a way that made James glare at him from the other side of the room.

Brad shrugged "I don't know... Is anything different or has anything changed since I went to America?" He asked, everyone shook their heads saying 'no' "Right... okay then. Fair enough."

Tristan sighed, watching everyone from where he stood behind his drums "So... How's the married life treating ya?" Tristan asked, making everyone look at him in a certain way. Connor bemused by him, Brad normally and James with yet another glare. "Are you sick of him yet?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, you know. You wake up and he's there. You turn around, he's there. You just can't get away from him."

"Eh, it's fine. I can live with it, I kinda have to. Plus, it beats waiting months on end to see him."

Tristan became slightly irritated on the inside as he wasn't able to get Brad to tell him the truth or accidentally talk about it, no matter what he talked about that related to it. "How long have you been married to him for now? A month and a half? Nearly two months?" Tristan asked.

"About a month and a half."

Tristan sighed, keeping his calm and deciding to talk about something else that may trigger Brad to tell him. "Cool. So... How's your little battle wound doing? Is it better now?"

Brad looked over to him, giving him a sort of funny look "Tristan, it was three months ago of course it—" Brad stopped, becoming suspicious as he noticed the way Tristan curiously stared at him with a sort of smug look on his face. Quickly, Brad turned to James "You told them!"

"I didn't tell them! You're sister came out with a box and it had the thing in and they wondered what the hell you were doing with it so I had to clear it up for them!" James said, trying to defend himself.

"You couldn't have lied?"

"Your name was on it! How was I supposed to lie without them assuming other things?!"

Tristan leaned over his drum kit a little "To be fair, you could have. After all, two out of four of us are experts at keeping secrets and lying. Aren't we Brad?" Tristan said, making Brad glare at him.

"Oh, wow. Thanks, Tris." Connor said, knowing he was talking about when he and Rydel had a one night stand and kept it a secret up until she came up pregnant with Tyler.

"I wasn't talking about you!"

"Oh, even bigger wow!" James said, raising his voice in slight offence and Tristan just smiled at him sort of sarcastically "what is this?! Throw the past in our faces day?!" He asked, knowing Tristan was calling him a liar and secret keeper when he 'liked' Brad but he knows now he didn't actually like, like him. It was just one of those crushes that go away after a while. Or a year.

And a half.

"It is kind of understandable why I wanted to keep it a secret, though..." Brad said.

"Yeah. But not us, Ross or anybody else close to you!" Tristan said.

"Well, it's too late now!"

Tristan stayed silent "It's never too late."

Brad faced James "You know, I wonder why I even bother trusting you or anybody for that matter with secrets when all you or they do is eventually let them slip."

"IT WASN'T MY FAULT!" James shouted "it was Natalie, so if you want to go take it out and blame someone, go take it out on her."

"Oh, no, I'll blame you too. You could have done something to prevent her from doing that!"

"So could have you! You could have took the damn thing with you!"

"I didn't take it cos it would have been found by people I didn't want it to be found by! But the same thing happened here!"

"ALRIGHT!" Connor shouted, making everyone stop and look in his direction as Connor isn't the type of person to raise his voice or shout unless he's hyperactive or really angry, which takes a lot and is very rare. Connor breathed deeply "Jesus Christ, you're giving me a headache! It's like three months ago all over again with all the fighting and shouting, I mean are we really going to go down that road again?"

Brad took off his guitar and put it down, heading towards the door. "Where are you going?!" James asked.

"For a walk!" Brad walked through the door and slammed it shut.

James groaned and went after him "Brad, wait!"

Tristan sighed, breaking the silence between himself and Connor that was created after James left "You're right. It is like three months ago all over again..." Tristan said, looking thoughtful.

Connor sighed heavily and sat down in the nearest chair "Well, this tours going to be fun if we're all going to be constantly fight all the time."

Just One Yesterday

"And done." Sally said, finishing her shift at the diner. She threw her apron down on the counter and made her way to the back room where her bag and coat was, putting them on and being ready to leave.

She came out the back and walked through the diner, passed the counter "See ya next week." Sally said, waving at her boss who stood behind the counter.

Her boss cocked her head "Are you coming in for something to eat?" She asked.

Sally stopped and gave her a funny look "No... I'm coming in to work..."

"No you're not..."

"I'm not?"

"You don't work here any more."

Sally raised her brow "What? Are you firing me?!" Sally asked, raising her voice in annoyance. She knows she can be a bad waitress at times, but she honestly thought she would last longer than this before she got fired.

The boss shook her head "No... You quit. You handed in your notice last week."

"I did?"

"Yeah. Here's the note you left." The boss went into the till and brought it out, handing it to Sally where the note read:

'Hey, it's Sally. Just letting you know I'm giving you my week's notice before I quit as I'm moving onto other things. Thanks – Sally'

Sally kept her eyes locked on the note, letting her face fall to unamusement "First of all, this isn't my handwriting. Second of all... I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL HIM!" She shouted, throwing the note on the floor and running out the diner.

"Alright, I'm coming!" Riker said, going to the front door that someone was knocking violently on. He unlocked it to find Sally stood there, looking less than amused and like she was about to go on a kill spree.

"Where the fuck is your idiot brother?" She asked.

Riker sighed "Ross! Sally's at the door!" He walked away from the door and went into the living room after letting Sally in.

Ross came into the hallway and seen Sally staring at him with her bemused facial expression that told him she was about to kill him. He didn't a say a word to her, instead he slowly started backing away until she charged at him and he started running for his life through the house to get somewhere safe where he wouldn't be brutally murdered. Cos that'd be sad if he was.

He ended up in the garden where Rydel was with Tyler and Matty. Ross stopped dead and picked up Matty, holding him in front for defence before Sally could get to him "You can't touch me I've got an innocent child in my hands!"

Sally put her hands on her waist and raised her brow "What? The child of an absolute psychopath who beat your sister? No offence, Rydel." Sally said, quickly turning to her as she forgot for a split second that Rydel was sat there in front of her.

Ross quickly, and gently, dropped Matty on to the floor and picked Tyler up instead, surprisingly fast, and held him in front for defence instead "Okay, now I've got an innocent child in my hands!"

Rydel rolled her eyes "Oh my, God. Is this how you would act if you had your own child and someone was around that wanted to kill you for some unknown reason?" She asked.

Ross shrugged "Probably. More than likely."

Rydel stood up "Give me him here." She said, taking Tyler out of Ross' arms despite his protests.

Once Tyler was out of Ross' arms, Sally slapped him as hard as she could across the head "You put me out a fucking job!"

"Did I?" Ross asked, rubbing his head as if it was going to make the pain go away.

"YES! Why?!"

"Well... We are going on a world tour for a year and a bit."

"What's that got to do with anything?!" Sally asked.

"Sally, Sally, Sally. I said we," Ross said, making Sally cock her head in confusement "what's the point in having a job when you're going to be away for a year and a half?" Ross asked.

"I'm not going with you though..."

Ross nodded "Yeah you are. Did I not mention this to you?" Ross asked, sitting down on a deck chair and Sally became even more confused. "Sally... You're James' girlfriend. More importantly, my best friend. There is no way we're both leaving you behind for a year and a half. So, we went halves on the money to pay for you to come with us. You're welcome."

Sally smiled "Are you being serious?" She asked, Ross nodded. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Sally chorused, smothering Ross in a hug "Ohh! It's so good to see you—well, hear about—you getting along with James! It took you long enough!"

Ross shoved her off him, gently "Yeah, yeah, whatever. You'll be sharing a room with him in all the hotels we stay at by the way. Now, I want no funny business going on in them rooms, I don't want no babies born on this tour or anybody getting pregnant. Same warning goes for you Rydel, I know you and Connor aren't together, but you never know with you two," Ross said, only for Rydel to throw a pillow from the deck chair at him where it hit him in the side of the head "anyway. You better go home and pack a year and a half's worth of stuff. I'm about half way done and I've been packing for a week."

Rydel raised her brow "Um... You'd have been done sooner, but as per usual you let Brad help you and the majority of the time it ended in—" Rydel got cut off by Ross putting his hands over Rydel's face and making little laugh noises.

"Right, I'll see you later." Sally said, making her way back inside the house to get out through the front door.

"I better go let her out. I'll be back in a minute." Ross said, getting up and following Sally.

Rydel sat back in the chair and watched the boys play when her phone started ringing. She sat up and got it off the table, seeing it was Connor. She smiled, answering it happily "Hey! Long time no speak."

"Yeah, hey..." Connor said, not sounding happy.

"What's wrong?" She asked, knowing something was up as it wasn't very often when Connor sounded or was unhappy. He was genuinely a happy person 99% of the time.

"Nothing."

"Don't lie. You wouldn't have called otherwise. Apart from wanting to see how the boys are before you make any sort of sarcastic comments."

Connor sighed "No it's just... ugh... Everything blew up like a bomb before we started rehearsing. Tristan started getting cocky cos he wanted to get to the bottom of things, Brad and James started fighting and now I haven't seen either of them since."

Rydel furrowed her brow, becoming confused "What are you talking about?" She asked.

Connor shook his head, running his hand through his hair "Nothing... it's just... Something's been on my mind a lot lately but I haven't had the chance to talk about it to anybody because every time I try to they either get annoyed at me or about it."

"Awe," Rydel said, pouting a little, feeling sorry for him "you don't have to tell me, but, is it bad?" She asked.

Connor shook his head "No, not at all but everyone's treating it as if it is." Connor said, sounding really fed up. He let silence fall over the phone as he began to think. He sighed again "Hey, Rydel?"

"Yeah?"

"Can you keep a secret?"
