Secrets Chapter 1
Hayden fidgeted in her seat as Anya drove to where the tour buses were located.
"Hayden calm down," Anya said at a stop light. Hayden looked at her, shocked, and said "How can I calm down! I'm going on tour with them?" putting emphasis on them.
Flashback to three weeks ago
"Ow! This better be important," Hayden said as she stood up from the fall.
"Oh boy is it important! It's about the tour," Anya said in an I-know-something-you-don't-know voice.
"What tour?" Hayden asked as she shut off her music for the first time in weeks.
"You're going on tour in three weeks as an opening act," Anya said sitting down on Hayden's bed.
"Sweet! I can't wait. How long is it?" Hayden jumped excitedly onto her bed.
"For about three months," Anya said in her manager voice.
"Cool. Who am I opening for?" Anya didn't say anything, just pointed to one of the many posters on the wall. Hayden's eyes grew large as she stared at the poster Anya was looking at. She screamed and yelled, "No way! I'm going on tour with them! What am I going to wear?" Anya started laughing at Hayden because she was freaking out.
"Chill, we're going shopping tomorrow."
"Ok well hey, there is one thing I have to tell you before we get there," Anya said as they neared the buses.
"Ok, what?" Hayden asked
"Make sure they don't find out you're a major fan of theirs," she said in a serious tone.
"I can try, but it's not like I ever expected to be an opening act of the Jonas Brothers." Hayden said. Anya parked near the buses and noticed a car pull beside them. Hayden didn't notice it, and just started getting her things ready.
"You coming?" Anya asked as she stepped out of the car.
"Yeah, I'll be right out. Just give me a few minutes to settle down," Hayden said, lying back down in the seat.
After about five minutes, Hayden decided to finally get out of the car. She grabbed her things and stepped out. As she turned around she ran into somebody and dropped she things.
"Oh I'm sorry," She said, while picking up her stuff.
"No it's my fault, and you wouldn't happen to be Hayden Rivera would you?" a voice that Hayden knew all too well asked. Her stomach flipped as she looked up into the curls of youngest brother in her favorite band. A scream tried to break free, but she remembered what Anya said and suppresses it.
"Yep. That's me," She said, her voice only cracking slightly.
"Hey, I'm Nick. Miss Barberena wanted me to come get you because she wants you to put your things on the bus," Nick said, extending his hand for Hayden to shake. Hayden shook it and went to get her luggage from the back of the car. She walked back over to him and as they were walking she absentmindedly started humming Inseparable.
"What are you humming?" Nick asked. Hayden quickly stopped humming.
"Oh, it's just a song that I… um… heard on the radio. Why?" She said quickly.
"It just sounded familiar, that's all," he replied.
"It should, you sing it..." Hayden mumbled.
"What did you say?" he asked as he stopped walking.
"Oh, nothing. Just that you might know the song, but I don't remember the name of it, so it doesn't matter anymore," she rambled as she darted her eyes left and right trying to avoid Nick's gaze. Nick gently lifted of her chin, which forced her to star deeply into his large brown eyes. They stared at each other for about a minute, before Nick slowly leaned down, as if to kiss her. But instead he whispered in her ear, "You have the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen." Hayden blushed and looked down. They continued walking toward the buses in silence. When they got to the others, Anya yelled "Geez, what took you two so long, we need to leave soon."
"I'm sorry, I kinda dropped everything when I bumped into Nick," Hayden said.
"Ok," Anya replied and stepped onto the bus.
"Hey, I'm Kevin. Its nice to finally meet you. We've heard a lot of great things about you," Kevin said, while walking towards her to shake her hand.
"Oh really?" Hayden asked, suspiciously, shaking his hand.
"Yeah," Kevin said before Joe interrupted him with a rap.
"Yo, Hayden! My names Joe and It s pleasure to meet you. We've heard a lot about how much this tour means to you. So you better listen to what I have to say. This tour will be in the history book one day!"
"Hey! It's a pleasure to meet you too Joe," Hayden said, laughing.
"Hayden, come on in and look at this bus! It's awesome!" Anya yelled.
"Alright!" Hayden yelled back. "I'll guess I'll see you guys tomorrow since we'll be on the road all night," she said to the boys.
"Yeah," Joe said.
"Talk to you tomorrow," Kevin replied. They all head to their bus for the night. Before Nick and Hayden go on their separate buses, they glanced at each other. But when Nick caught her gaze, she quickly looked away and rushed into her bus for the night.
