Endless Roads to Rediscover

Abby POV

Liam spins me around the dance floor and for once I feel content.
"What was with the bawling at the wedding?" Liam asks teasingly.
I look at him with wide eyes I'd hoped no one had noticed.
"She's my best friend I have a right." I retort.
"Hey I was just teasing." Liam says smiling. He leans in close to my ear.
"I wish I could kiss you right now."
I roll my eyes and push him away.
"Control your guy hormones please." I tease.
The ringing of my phone interrupts whatever Liam wanted to say next. I check the caller ID to see it's Tulisa.
"I have to take this." I say holding up my finger. "One sec."
I walk quickly out of the ballroom and into the quieter lobby.
"Hello?" I answer the phone.
"Hi Abby we are having complications with the set so we've had to change your performance a bit. I need you to come back so you can relearn it."
"When?" I ask before silently cursing under my breath. I knew something like this would happen. Whenever everything seems go perfectly something always goes wrong.
"Tonight if possible." I cringe at her words.
"Does early tomorrow work?" I ask.
"If it's early and you bring your A-game." Tulisa agrees.
I breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'll book my flight." I say.
"We've already done it for you." Tulisa explain. "Your on the first flight at 6am tomorrow. Oh and your sister is on the 8am flight there weren't two seats on the plane."
I clench my phone in my hand.
"You want me to leave my 16 year old sister by herself for two hours in the Dublin airport?" I ask miffed.
"You have friends there right? Oh how was the wedding?"
"The wedding was nice. I'll see what I can do I guess." I give in.
"Okay bye Abby see you tomorrow."
"Bye." I say before hearing the dial tone.
I walk slowly back into the ballroom. What was I going to do about my sister. As I was exiting the lobby I see Austinn walking purposefully towards the exit, tears streaming down her face.
I jog up to her.
"Austinn what's wrong?" I ask.
She gives me her shoulder and continues walking. I jog another couple of steps glad I took my heels off earlier in the evening I didn't need them anyways I am tall enough. I grab Austinn lightly by the shoulders and turn her to face me.
"Austinn what's wrong?" I demand.
"H-h-harry." She sobs.
I pull her into a large hug.
"No boy is worth crying over." I murmur to her. "Now what happened?" I ask pulling back slightly so I could look her in the eyes.
"He slept with Kendall." She admits.
I look at her shocked. She must be mistaken. The Harry I know wouldn't do that to his girlfriend especially not the mother of his child.
"I think there's more to this then you know right now." I say to her.
Austinn shakes her head and tries to pull away.
"No, goodbye Abby I'm headed to America I can't take this."
I tighten my grip on her shoulders and she stops struggling.
"Your going to run away?" I ask her then laugh. "You think that is going to solve your problems."
Austinn refuses to look me in the eye.
"That's what you did." She mumbles.
I calm down for a second and grab either side of her face making her look me in the eye.
"Yes I did Austinn. I've been running my whole life. And do you want to know what it has gotten me? Absolutely nothing. If it wasn't for Danielle and you guys who don't let me leave I wouldn't have any friends. I don't let people in. It's the choice I've made and I wouldn't wish it on anyone else. Do you want to know what will happen if you run Austinn? You will end up alone, a single mother and without the man who you love and loves you back. You will be miserable. And if you stay then at least you can say you tried." I reason with her.
Austinn sucks on her lip considering.
"You can stay with Erica tonight and fix this in the morning. Don't worry I will have a good talking to with Harry. He may not technically be my brother but he knows enough to listen to me."
Austinn nods her head slowly and I pull her into another hug.
"Now let's get you cleaned up." I say pulling her towards the girl's bathroom.
"I'd rather just go to bed." Austinn says shakily.
"You sure?" I ask concerned.
She nods her head gently.
I take my room key out of my clutch and hand it to her.
"It's room 417."
"Where will you stay?" She asks.
I shrug my shoulders.
"Probably with Liam."
Austinn smiles slightly and shakes her head.
"What?" I ask.
"Nothing."
Leaving Austinn to her own devices I make my way back into the ballroom. As I enter the door I feel someone's arm on my waist as Liam sweeps me around to face him.
"There you are I was worried about you. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah just had to deal with a couple of things. Do you think you could take me to the airport at 5am tomorrow?" I ask with a smile.
Liam's face crinkles up.
"Why?"
"I have to go fix some things for my performance."
"Oh." Liam says deflating and a look of sadness comes over his face.
I tap his nose.
"Don't be like that." I say and give him a quick peck on the lips before looking around to make sure no one saw us. Danielle shoots me a knowing glance, busted.
Liam raises his eyes at me.
"I thought we were keeping this a secret. I could bend you over backwards and give you a good one if you want." He says smiling.
I punch him in the arm and give him a warning glance.
"Shhh people will hear you." I mutter and Liam laughs.
Annoyed I head over to where Danielle is sitting in one of the tables.
"Hey." I say smiling as I take the seat next to her.
"You know you guys are not fooling anyone." Danielle comments with a smile.
"Wow thanks for the best friend confidence boost." I retort back to her.
Danielle raises her hands.
"Just sayin'. So whats up?"
"So I can't just talk to my best friend?" I ask.
"You came up to me looking like you needed to say something." She points out.
"Okay, okay." I say raising my hands.
"TheresbeenaproblemwiththesetTulisacalledI'mleavingtomorrowmorningearly." I manage to say quickly and in one breath.
