----
The boys had to go off for their last Aussie meet and greet, (in their costumes!) so before they left, Harry noticed something.
'Tom and Dougie are supposed to be girls, but they're a lacking a little bit, aren't they?' he laughed, hitting Tom in the chest.
'And that's the way I like it!' Tom gasped, covering his chest with his hands.
'I don't think so. We have to do something about that,' Danny grinned.
'No!' Dougie exclaimed, grabbing Tom by the arm and running backstage.
'Get them!' Zac exclaimed, jumping up off the floor, putting the guitar beside him.
'Lucie, Sophie, Vanessa? You take stage right! We'll take stage left!' Harry yelled and together the three of us ran the way Harry pointed.
'Where are they?' Sophie giggled as she peered around the corner into the dressing room. There was a flash of turquoise and a flash of purple ran through the door at the end of the darkened corridor, a room we remembered as being Tommy's office during the tour. Sophie went to run up the corridor but Vanessa grabbed her hand.
'Don't you remember what he told us at the start of the tour? To stay out of his office!' she hissed.
'But Dougie and Tom are in there! He told them they weren't supposed to go in there either and yet they are!' she protested.
'Come on, we'll be in there and out,' I whispered, tiptoeing forwards to the side of the door, the other two beside me. I could hear the other four boys calling their names and Tom and Dougie's muffled giggles.
'They're never gonna look in here,' Tom whispered.
'Yes they will,' Vanessa called. There was a gasp from inside the room and then Dougie's giggle. I held up three fingers. I put one down, then the other. We ran into the room, yelling as loud as we could. Dougie and Tom began yelling as well, jumping up from their spot in the corner and trying to get through the door. Vanessa blocked them, so Dougie crawled under her legs and out the door- into Danny and Zac's waiting arms.
'Is someone in my office?' Tommy's voice was calling. We all stopped and stared at each other, holding our breath.
'No! We're just sitting outside the door! We thought you were in there, so we were waiting for you to come out,' Danny called innocently, putting Dougie in a headlock as Harry shoved a pair of socks down each side of his top. Sophie and I grabbed Tom and dragged him back out. Tommy muttered something, then was gone. Zac and Nate helped us to hold Tom while they shoved socks down the front of his dress as well.
'These suck,' Dougie moaned, looking down. 'I demand four pairs of socks!'
'Come on then Jasmine,' Danny giggled, leading him back along the corridor.
----
Soon, Dougie and Tom had their tops filled out.
'My humps, my humps, my humps, my humps, my lovely lady lumps,' Dougie started singing, dancing to Tom, who sang along and copied his dancing.
'Boys? What are you doing in there? You're going to be late to your meet and greet!' Tommy's voice was calling as he banged on the dressing room door.
'We're getting sexy!' Dougie called.
'What?' Tommy called, pushing the door open to see Tom fixing his boobs.
'This isn't what it looks like!' he exclaimed, shielding his chest with his hands.
Tommy stared before shaking his head and pushing the door open to let them out.
'We'll be back in an hour. I'm sure the crew will find something to amuse you for that long,' Tom smiled as Dougie pulled him out by the arm.
'If you kids wanna go for a walk or something, you can. Go get an ice cream,' Tommy smiled before closing the door.
'I don't think I can fit an ice-cream in on top of all this food from lunch,' Sophie moaned as she lay down on the couch in the dressing room.
'Well next door isn't there the gardens? We could go look around them,' Vanessa suggested.
'No thanks. It's like a billion degrees out there,' Nate said, sitting beside Sophie.
'Wanna have a Mario Cart race?' Zac asked, motioning to the Wii.
'Only two people can play,' Vanessa pointed out.
'What games did the boys give you for your DS?' Nate asked.
'Hey, I got Mario Cart! Let's play 5-way wireless!' Zac exclaimed, running to the bag in the corner of the dressing room and collecting everyone's DS's. (A/N: Me and my friends used to do that at school at recess last year. Yeah we're cool...? Now it's moved onto the iPhone/iPod Touch app Zombie Farm. Download it! Addictive to the max!)
----
An hour later McFly came back, all looking quite flustered and sweaty. We barely noticed them come in. Our Mario Cart games had begun extremely competitive and intense; we'd been checked on a few times by the crew because of our yelling at each other and the games to go faster. It was a lot of fun.
'Good to see you putting them to good use,' Tom laughed and we all jumped, making the other three laugh as well.
'Yes I won!' Sophie exclaimed as the game came to an end.
'No, I did, I won seventeen times. You only won six,' Vanessa pointed out. Sophie poked her tongue out at her and shut her white DS with a snap.
'How was the meet and greet?' I asked, putting mine back into the bag too.
The four looked at each other. 'Humiliating,' Harry replied finally.
'Why?' Nate asked, taking a biscuit from the tray the caterers had bought us.
'Have you seen what we're wearing?!' Tom exclaimed.
'One girl tried to take my boobs!' Dougie exclaimed and everyone laughed.
'Lucky she didn't. You've got my lucky socks stuffed down there,' Harry muttered and the room erupted into laughter again.
'Ooh! You gotta come have a look at this!' Danny exclaimed brightly, skipping out of the room and leading us to the big hall backstage that had been cleared of everything but a big blow up kiddie pool, filled with water.
'That's so cool!' Vanessa exclaimed running over to it and peering in.
'Don't push her!' Tom shouted as Dougie went to sneak forwards to push her forwards.
'Aw, why?' Dougie moaned, stepping back. 'You ruin all the fun.'
'Cos she's in her costume. When she's out of it feel free,' Tom smiled.
'Vanessa! Go get out of your costume so I can push you in!' Dougie exclaimed and Vanessa laughed.
'I don't think I bought anything to swim in.'
'Yeah you did. We made sure of it,' Danny replied and everyone gasped.
'Stalker!' Sophie exclaimed.
'How does that make me a stalker?' Danny asked, with a sad face.
Sophie thought about it for a minute. 'I have absolutely no idea,' she said finally.
'Right, well we've got two hours until sound check, then after that we're having dinner, then its Showtime!' Tom grinned. 'Last show!'
'Noooooo!' Vanessa, Sophie and I moaned at the same time and Tom laughed.
'It's not like you'll never see us again.'
'I know, but I don't want to go home! It's been too fun!' I exclaimed and Tom laughed again as Danny wrapped his arms around me, giving me a noogie.
'Let's go swimming!' Dougie exclaimed.
-----
So the next two hours were spent splashing around in the tiny pool, half the crew joining in as well. In the end, more water ended up on the floor than in the pool and just before sound check, everyone was paddling around in less than four inches of water in the bottom (mostly due to the fact that Dougie and Danny believed if they jumped in many times, they'd get everyone wet. They did. But I don't think they meant the floor too). I chatted to Ryan for a lot of it, sad that I hadn't become friends with him on the tour. He was so lovely and chatted a lot (and loved hitting Dougie and leaving marks, especially when he was wet).
At one point, we had thirty-five people in the tiny pool and there wasn't enough room to sit down. Dougie and Tom decided they'd try and dunk as many people underwater as they could and Harry, Danny and Zac plotted against them, trying to dack them as they ran around in the calf-deep water. It wasn't as fun as my birthday party, but it was pretty close to it! Everyone was laughing and giggling and singing along to Tom's iPod that was blaring over the speakers. After a water-based dance off, it was time for sound check (in bathers of course).
'Awwww our last sound check!' Tom said sadly.
'Well we better make it fun!' Danny exclaimed, doing the starting riff to See You Again by Miley Cyrus which made Dougie squeal and start attempting to Moonwalk up and down the stage while trying to play bass at the same time. Not a wise thing, considering he ended up tripping over a cord and taking a microphone, amplifier and his bass with him as he fell, which was hilarious.
'Who's in a sing-a-long mood?' Tom called and half the crew and everyone on stage (including Zac and Nate) cheered.
'Right, well we'll start off with a well-known hit of the legendary Weird Al Yankovic, dedicated to Tom,' Danny laughed, starting off with a riff...
They see me mowing, my front lawn, I know they're all thinking I'm so white and nerdy...
Think I'm just too white and nerdy, think I'm just too white and nerdy, can't you see I'm white and nerdy, look at me I'm white and nerdy.
I wanna roll with the gangsters, but so far they all think I'm too white and nerdy...
The sing-along ended up in a Weird Al Yankovic Greatest Hits-Athon (including Fat, Eat It, I'm An Ugly Girl, Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch and The EBay Song). After Danny ran out of his songs, Tom started on the TV themes, such as the Friends one, The Simpsons, Family Guy, which turned into movie themes like Ghost Busters, Star Wars, Jaws (? Suggested by Dougie) and other ones which was fun. Dougie then moved onto Miley Cyrus songs, Vanessa screaming for him to stop with the Miley.
He stuck his bottom lip out and went and sat with Tommy, still pouting as Tom tried to coax him back with Blink songs.
'Any requests from the girls?' Danny said into the microphone. We looked at each other when Vanessa suddenly starting belting out The Boy Does Nothing by Alesha Dixon. She pulled her microphone out its stand. Sophie and I did the same and followed her as she sang, dancing around the boys and singing our lungs out, completely forgetting we were in bikinis. Harry began to give us a beat and Dougie and Danny began to play over it as we sang the song we'd sung so many times before.
It soon turned into Issues by The Saturdays, then Up, 2am, Just Can't Get Enough and courtesy of Harry, turned into Sexy Back and then A Whole New World and other classic Disney songs to fit with our theme.
'When I die, I want this played at my funeral,' Dougie grinned, starting to play Happy Holidays by Blink, much to Tommy's disgust.
'Dougie, do you want your mouth washed out with soap?' he called as Dougie finished it.
'No! Tom and Danny did that to me last year! It sucked! I blew bubbles for the next week!' Dougie shouted back.
'Well if you play explicit songs again you will be blowing bubbles for the next three weeks!'
'Fine,' Dougie pouted.
'Oh. My. God. We could do White and Nerdy for a special thing tonight!' Danny exclaimed quickly.
'We could!' Harry exclaimed.
'What are we gonna do?' Sophie asked.
Tom smiled and looked around at the boys. 'Just follow our lead tonight.' We nodded.
'Dinner's ready guys!' one of the caterers called.
'Ooh!' Dougie exclaimed, suddenly brightening up once again and bouncing off the stage and into the dining room. Set up on the big table this time, were bowls and plates of dessert foods, like ice-cream, cake, punch, Christmas cake, huge plates of colourful jelly and every other Christmas dessert you could think of.
'Dude, Dougie wasn't joking!' Zac exclaimed, his face wide with excitement, the same as it had been that morning.
----
Everyone collected their desserts and sat at the table, everyone chatting while they ate. Zac had an arm around me the whole time. What were we going to do? We couldn't live through Skype and Facebook forever. But neither of us could move to the other country and he couldn't come and visit as he liked. It would all have to be completely planned. I sighed and put another spoon of blue jelly into my mouth.
'What's wrong?' Zac asked, looking at me.
'What are we going to do Zac?' I sighed. He heaved a sigh as well and put his spoon down, sliding on his chair to face me.
'Lucie May Streeton. What we are going to do is eat our desserts, watch Lucie sing incredibly tonight, party, fly to Melbourne, fly to England and talk on Facebook and Skype every day. We will take it from there. But for now, enjoy the moment,' he said, kissing my cheek.
'Okay,' I smiled, leaning my head against him.
----
As everyone finished eating their dinner/dessert the four boys got up from their end of the table and went and stood at the head of the table, Harry tapping a glass with a over-exaggerated posh face, making everyone laugh.
'Hey guys, as you all know, this is our last night on tour, which is horrible but true,' Tom said as Harry put the glass back down and Danny drained his fifth beer for that night.
'We would just like to say, the biggest ever thank you to each and every one of you. To our awesome roadies who set up the show every time and cart all our crap around, we wouldn't be able to tour without you, so thank you,' Tom said and all the roadies cheered.
'Ryan, thanks for being my buddy and for making my boo-boo's go away,' Dougie said and everyone laughed.
'To all our incredible caterers, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making amazing food and for making an entire Christmas lunch and dinner!' Harry exclaimed and everyone in the room cheered.
'To all the lighting guys, the sound guys, our guitar techs! That means you Neil! Thanks for being amazing and helping so much!' Tom exclaimed and Neil gave him a thumbs up as everyone cheered.
'Tommy! Fletch! Jase! You guys are incredible! Thank you for putting up with us and helping us each and every step of the way!' Danny exclaimed and everyone cheered extra loud.
'Our wardrobe ladies, thank you!' Harry added and they grinned and nodded. 'Tony for driving us and putting up with our annoyingness for the huge trips!'
'Lucie, Sophie and Vanessa for being awesome back up singers and for putting up with us too!' Danny grinned and we all grinned back, feeling teary again.
'Zac and Nate for being awesome and the best groupies we could ever have,' Dougie added and everyone laughed smiled and Zac hugged me close.
'Thanks to everyone, we'll never forget this tour; you've all been amazing and supportive. A band could never ask for anything better than this, thanks for believing in us and being there,' Tom said, sniffing, trying desperately to keep the tears inside.
'Three cheers for McFly!' some one called out.
'Hip, hip!' 'Hooray!' 'Hip, hip!' 'Hooray!' 'Hip, hip!' 'Hooray!' the whole room exclaimed as the boys all grinned and sniffed.
'Thanks guys. Let's go out there and make it our best show yet!' Danny exclaimed and everyone cheered once again.
----
As we all went to get ready for the show, McFly ended up surrounded by the crew. Tommy, Fletch and Jase came up behind us three girls.
'We just want to say how amazing you girls have been for this tour. Some parts have been pretty difficult, but you've all soldiered through. Thanks for coming, and good luck in the future with those amazing voices you have,' Tommy smiled.
'Thanks Tommy,' Sophie smiled, reaching forward and hugging him, followed by me and Vanessa, hugging Jase and Fletch afterwards as well.
'I'd be honoured to produce you girls,' Jase smiled as I hugged him.
'Thanks, we'll have to remember that,' I murmured back and he grinned at me.
-----
After more shaking hands with people on the crew, it was time to go and dress up as Princesses again by ourselves, the boys still talking to people.
'Can't believe it's our last show,' Vanessa said sadly, pulling on her yellow, red and blue dress.
'I know. I'm gonna miss these guys so much,' Sophie sighed, sliding her golden crown into her hair.
'I'm just sad we haven't been very close for these last five weeks. It hasn't been good on that aspect,' Vanessa said quietly.
'I know...' I replied slowly.
'Sleepovers when we get back? Girly times without people everywhere and without the six boys with us?' Sophie suggested and we nodded.
'I love you girls, what would we do without each other?' I sighed.
'We'd be very sad people,' Vanessa replied, pulling Sophie and me into a tight hug. Soon we were all crying and hugging.
'You know what song suits these last five weeks?' Sophie asked, wiping her eyes with her sleeve.
'What?' Vanessa asked, dabbing at her face with a tissue.
'The Climb.'
'Not Miley Cyrus!' Vanessa moaned.
'I know you hate her, but it suits it,' Sophie shrugged.
'I agree,' I whispered and they nodded.
'We've only got ten minutes til we're on! Where're the boys?' Vanessa exclaimed, peering out the door.
'They're probably already there waiting,' Sophie replied, giving her hair a last brush before heading out the door.
----
We were right. The six boys were waiting backstage in their costumes, ready to go on.
'Last show girls,' Tom said sadly, peering out into the crowd which had almost stopped filing in now.
'We know,' Sophie sighed.
'We all want to say how proud we are of you girls, for doing this. You get better and better every night,' Danny smiled, putting his arms around Vanessa.
'Thanks guys,' Sophie said tearfully.
'No, no tears! I want you girls to promise us that there is no crying until Tullamarine tomorrow okay? Just focus on the moment. Playing the best show we all can for the last night and entertaining the lovely people of Perth,' Harry said quickly, lifting Sophie's chin. She nodded, wiping her eyes again.
'We're on in one minute,' Dougie whispered, giving each of us an enormous hug.
'Good luck girls. Make it good! Give it your best and have fun okay?' Harry said, hugging us as well. We nodded, trying our hardest to keep the tears that so desperately wanted to come out inside.
'Come on,' Tom smiled, taking our hands and leading us out, before launching into We Are The Young.
----
'As you've noticed, we've had a bit of a costume change, you like?' Dougie asked as the song finished, strutting along the stage as the crowd cheered.
'I guess you do. A dare from our crew. Harry and Dougie are Jasmine and Aladdin, I'm Fairy Godmother unfortunately,' Tom said, his voice dropping. 'Lucie and her Zac are Cinderella and her Prince, Sophie and Nate are Aurora and Phillip and Vanessa and lovely Danny here are Snow White and her curly-haired Little Boy Big Boots prince,' Tom smiled and the crowd laughed.
'Enjoy, this is our last show in Australia! We're flying home tomorrow, so we hope you enjoy it!' Dougie exclaimed and everyone cheered.
----
The show was the absolute best we'd ever played. We tried to make every single tiny moment last, not wanting to miss a thing and trying to remember everything we'd done.
The best part was when the boys decided on doing White n Nerdy with Zac and Nate, complete with Tom pushing a lawn mower across the stage, the six boys with their names taped onto their underwear (dressed in their Prince outfits with their pants hanging around their knees, exposing pink, girly underwear) a huge roll of Bubblewrap, bum bags, a few comic books, Zac and Nate with a laptop, some of Tom's Star Wars figurines and Tom's Ghostbusters things we gave him, Danny and Harry with two Ping-Pong bats and a ball, hitting it from one side of the stage to the other, Tom screaming out "Holy cow I'm white n nerdy!' at exactly the right time and A LOT of "gangster" moves, which were absolutely HILARIOUS!
We girls were supposed to join in, but in the end us and the crowd were laughing too much to do anything!
----
Everything was fun and before Five Colours they got Zac and Nate out again, thanking everyone, before heading off, trying harder than ever not to bawl our eyes out.
'We're not on tour anymore!' Dougie said sadly as we came off, hugging each other and biting our lips, keeping the tears inside.
'But it was the best show ever!' Sophie squealed, hugging Nate close.
'Amen to that,' Harry grinned, picking me up as I hugged him.
'It's been incredible,' Vanessa giggled as Danny decided to tickle her.
'It has,' Tom smiled.
'Awesome job at the White n Nerdy thing. I think I burst my appendix from laughing too much,' I giggled, clutching my stomach.
'I agree!' Sophie smiled, her eyes misty.
'Let's go have some fun before we all start blubbering!' Dougie exclaimed, trying to subtly wipe away a tear.
---
For the next two hours we had the music pumping, the whole crew and everyone involved in the tour dancing together, Zac and me making out so much Dougie teased that our tongues would need casts.
After everyone got a bit sick of dancing, we managed to convince Tony to take us for one last drive in the bus around the dark Perth, looking at some of the early Christmas lights some people had up and making it into a sort of Party Bus with the music blaring and dancing and calling out things to the people on the street.
The four boys were slowly getting more and more drunk with every drink they had and after an hour and a half inside the bus, driving around Perth in the dark (which was awesome fun!) everyone decided on watching a few movies taking every pillow and beanbag in the whole venue into the big hall (getting changed into pyjamas on the way). It had a HUGE plasma TV on one wall, so the whole crew crowded in as well and we began the Back to the Future marathon for the second time that tour.
By halfway through the second one, all of the crew had gone back to their hotels and Danny and Vanessa had fallen asleep in their beanbags (which was fair, considering it was five-thirty in the morning).
I tried to concentrate on what Marty and the Doc were talking about as my eyes began to grow heavier and heavier. Their voices began to blur and fade and soon the enormously busy day took it's toll and I fell asleep with my head on Zac's chest.
