"You girls come in here more than anyone else we've ever had," Claudia stated as soon as she got to their pushed together tables, now including five boys. "Are these guys your boyfriends?"

Spencer cackled loudly, causing everyone to look at her. She clamped her hand over her mouth, and Ash quickly placed her hand over Spencer's mouth too.

"No, Claudia, they aren't our boyfriends," Liz laughed. "They're our tour mates."

"Oh...well I can never keep up with four of you. Roxie's the only one that I can."

Roxie giggled.

"That's cause I'm not as much trouble,"

"Bitch, please," Spencer rolled her eyes. She had calmed down a whole hell of a lot. "You get in more trouble than a lot of people I know."

"No I don't." She argued.

"Sure...and you're not the one that helped me climb that fence to tag that dumpster?" Spencer wiggled her eyebrows.

Roxie rolled her eyes.

"Fine. Case made,"

Ash laughed at Roxie's blushing face.

"The usual for us, please?" Liz wiggled her eyebrows.

"Alright," Claudia stated. "What about you boys?"

"I think I'm just going to play it safe, and order waffles," Liam stated.

Louis and Harry nodded in agreement.

"Niall wants the same thing that I do, Claudia." Liz spoke up for the Irish boy.

"Okay," He shrugged.

"Can I try the French toast?" The dark-haired boy, Zayn, asked her.
"Of course," Claudia stated. "What can I get y'all to drink?"
"Water for us," Ash spoke again for the entire girl-group.
"We'll have the same," Louis stated.
Claudia nodded and walked away.
"So, I'd like to get to know you girls," Harry stated, already placing a flirty smile on his face. The boys already knew that this was going to happen. Harry tended to flirt effortlessly with girls.

"What do you want to know?" Emery asked, looking at her nails instead of the boys.

"Do you actually have boyfriends?" Harry asked, causing Louis to roll his eyes.

"Expect Harry to ask that." He stated.

"Well, I do," Roxie smiled.

"Maybe I do, maybe I don't," Emery winked.

"Kinda?" Spencer answered, looking at Ash. "Same for you right?"

Ash nodded.

"Spencer and I are sort of in relationships? It's...casual," Ashe tried to explain.

"Casual?" Louis asked, laughing. "Really? You lot put up with that?"

"Yeah," Spencer shrugged. "I'm a trouble-maker. Boys should probably stay away,"

"HOT AND DANGEROUS!" Liz yelled.

"If you're one of us, then roll with us!" Emery added, yelling along.

Roxie shook her head.

"You guys are horrible,"

"You love us!" Liz yelled, sticking her tongue out.

"Sure, sure," She replied. "I believe 1D were asking us questions,"

"Right." Liam nodded. "How old are you girls?"

"Spencer, Liz, and myself are eighteen." Roxie replied. "Emery is twenty, and Ash is nineteen,"

"You look older," Zayn noted.

"Thanks?" Ash asked, looking confused.

"How long have you been in a band?" Niall asked them, curious about the girls.

"Three years," They replied at the same time.

"We moved in together when the three youngest were fifteen," Emery stated.

"Here's the water," Claudia stated, handing them over their drinks.

"We're from New York City," Spencer added. "It's hard growing up there. So we've had our fair share of drugs and shit like that,"

"Hardcore," Louis laughed.

"We like to think that we are, but in reality, we're just dumb." Ash laughed.

A loud, hardcore breakdown blared through Spencer's phone. She blushed slightly, and apologized before she answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey, pretty lady."

"Hey, Kel," She replied, looking like an actual teenager for once.

"What are you doing on this fine day?"

"Oh, you know...eating at Waffle House...heading your way. Why?"

"So you are coming today?"

"Of course I am,"

"I guess I better get my bunk ready then,"

Spencer giggled.

"I guess you probably should. I'll see you in a little bit,"

"Wait! I wanted to see if you guys wanted to play a small set today? They asked me to ask you guys,"

"Oh...hang on," Spencer pulled the phone away from her ear, and looked at her band. "Kellin wants to know if we can do a small set today."

In unison, the rest of the girls groaned.

"Maybe tomorrow?" Spencer replied.

Kellin sighed on the other end but agreed.

"Okay. Bye, Spence."

"Bye," She stated, hanging up the phone. "Sorry about that."

"So why don't you want to play?" Harry asked. "For us, we always want to play,"

"We want to play all of the time, but Simon doesn't want us to play." Roxie explained. "If it's not a set in stone date, we don't do it. Simple as that."

"I suppose that makes sense." Niall nodded.

The food came, and they all eagerly dug in. Niall looked like he was a kid in a candy store. He loved the amount of food on his plate. He knew that the food was greasy, but it tasted so good to him. Liz was right, he did want exactly what she had. If he ordered anything else, he would've probably taken it from her. He liked that Liz ate. He liked her blonde-ish colored hair. He liked that she had tattoos, and that she had a cute smile. To put it simply, Niall fancied Liz, a lot. He thought she was adorable. Niall liked her personality more than the other's. He liked that she was always smiling. They would fit together well, he liked to think.

"Roxie, stoppppppppppppppp," Spencer whined.

The blonde girl just giggled, and took some more food off of her plate.

"Never!"

"I hate when you take my food. I don't know why you even take it. This is vegetarian."

"Yeah, but you love me, baby cakes." Roxie smiled. "This is why you get extra. Duhhhh,"

"Ugh!" Spencer groaned, but let it go.

Harry found this funny. He tends to do the same thing with his own band. He will steal their food, but not feel bad for it. Unlike RLH, the other members of One Direction didn't exactly put up with it. Louis would feed his food to Harry, thus fueling their relationship rumors even more, while Liam would smack Harry for taking it. Harry wouldn't even attempt to steal food from Niall in fear of loosing a limb, and Zayn would bitch endlessly. The girls were cute. He liked looking at each of them. Maybe they had tattoos, but tattoos didn't really bother Harry. Only two of them were older, but that didn't bother him either. He knew that he would get along great with them eventually.

Liam found these girl's interesting. They had spent the past hour with them, and they had already taken their shirts off in front of the lads. The behavior was odd, but they were Americans. They didn't know what to expect when they met them. Thus far, Liam didn't know if he liked Reckless Little Hearts yet or not. Sure, some of them were calmer than the others, but they were different all the same. He fancied Roxie and Emery so far. The two girls were calm. Liz was sarcastic. Ash was kinda funny, and Spencer was loud. She was really loud. Liam didn't like her so far. Sure, she was cute, but she was just too outgoing. She slightly annoyed Liam. He didn't like that. He wasn't one to get annoyed easily.

Louis, on the other hand, adored Spencer's attitude. He figured that he liked her cause she was like him in female form. She was loud, and random, like him. Louis thought that Ash was cute. Although she hasn't said a lot to the group, he thought that she was funny. He liked funny girls. Roxie was obviously the momma, much like Liam. Emery was calm, and Louis really couldn't tell what she was thinking. He was sure that she would be fun once she opened up some. Liz cracked him up. She was kind of awkward, but she loved to eat. Liz definitely reminded Louis of Niall.

Zayn thought the girls were loud, which they were. Emery was quieter, like he was. He liked to think that he wasn't annoyed with any of the girls, but he knew that it wasn't true. He was more annoyed with their music than anything. So far, the girls were alright. They were nice, welcoming, but maybe they came off way too strong. He knew that touring with them would be different. He didn't know if he could personally handle RLH day after day for two and a half months. It would be a lot of time to get to know them. He was trying to stay positive.

After eating the bands started toward the door. The girls left Claudia a huge tip, and the boys started to pull out their money. They didn't get to pay at all. Before any of them could get the chance, Spencer and Ash went up to claim the tickets, and they paid for everyone's food. The lads felt a little offended. They were going to pay for everyone. It's only right that boys pay for girls, even if they were all just there to get to know everyone. The guys didn't expect them to pay so quickly.

"We were going to get the tab," Liam complained to Ash and Spencer.

"Don't worry about it," Spencer smiled a small smile. "We got it,"

"Liam, let it go," Louis stated, lightly laughing at his friend.

Ash rolled her eyes.

"You can pay next time. We'll take turns, okay?"

"We will pay for the rest of food," Louis replied. "It's not right to make girl's pay,"

Spencer shook her head.

"Look, it's fine. We're big girls. We can pay for ourselves,"

"But the guy should always pay, no matter what," Liam argued.

"Liam, it's fine," Spencer stated, getting annoyed with the band boy. "We've got it." She stated before she walked off looking mad. Ash watched her friend go before turning back toward the boys.

"What made her so mad?" Louis asked carefully.

"Look, we've had a hard time growing up. Obviously, we lived in New York. For us...it's kind of insulting. I mean, I'm sure that the other girls feel differently, but Spence and I rather pay for ourselves. Come on, our parents just let us move out of our houses when we were younger. That alone should tell you something," Ash replied before walking off toward Spencer, who was venting to Liz. Ash wrapped her friend in a hug, making the other girl laugh.

"What do you think that she meant?" Liam asked Louis.

Louis chewed on his bottom lip.

"I think that it means that they're a little more fragile than they look, Lee." Louis replied. "I think that maybe we need to get to know them better before attacking them next time, yeah?"

"I didn't attack her," Liam mumbled.

Louis rolled his eyes.

"Whatever, mate." He replied.

Roxie was chatting with Emery and Zayn just a few feet over, and Liam watched carefully.

"What do you think of Roxie?"

"Me?" Louis asked, looking at his friend. "I think that she's a whole lot more wild than she seems. Don't go down that road, Liam. She has a boyfriend,"

Liam sighed.

"I'm not. I'm just...wondering."

"Well stop wondering. You know that it gets you into trouble," Louis joked before patting his back. "I think we're about to leave."

"Right," Liam nodded, following him out of the small Waffle House, and toward the van.

"Where are we going exactly?" Harry asked, crossing his arms.

"Warped Tour!" Liz yelled loudly.

"We had no idea that you guys were going to be here," Emery added quickly. "So...you guys get to see what world we live in."

"That should be an adventure." Niall joked, making Liz laughed.

"You'll be a little shocked." Roxie added.

The ride to the venue wasn't long at all. Roxie handed their van's parking pass to the backstage area over to the security guard. He laughed, knowing the girls, and handed the pass back over to Roxie. When they parked three guys were standing there beside a few buses. Two were taller, and had jet black hair while the other had dark brown. One of the two had tattoos covering nearly everything. One Direction looked all around, seeing a bunch of people going in and out of the buses. They were used to touring, but most of them had no idea who these bands were.

Roxie shoved the van into park, and practically jumped out of it. In seconds she threw herself at the tall man with tattoos all over him. The shorter blonde's legs wrapped around his thin waist before they were attacking each other's lips. One Direction was slightly shocked. The girl that looked the sweetest, was all over some tattooed stranger. They assumed that it was her boyfriend, but still. They were just so...allover each other. Roxie didn't care. She didn't get to see Oli a lot. She adored the taller man. She wouldn't say that she was in love with him, but she sure did love kissing him.

"Gross!" Liz screamed, causing the girls to giggle before they all got out. The guys stood awkwardly next to the girls.

"Hey," The dark brown haired boy stated, wrapped his arms around Ash.

"Spencerrrrrrrrr."

"Kellinnnnnn," The red head yelled back before wrapping her arms around the boy's neck. He checked to see if the coast was clear before he bent down and placed a kiss on her lips. "Sup?"

"Just sound check in a little bit." He answered.

"How soon in a little bit," The shorter girl asked him, biting his lip.

Spencer Tucker was dangerous to be around. Kellin knew this before going into this 'relationship'. He didn't want to go into a real relationship with her. He knew that she would break his heart. Spencer knew that she would break his heart. She didn't want to because she adored Kellin, they had been friends for years. So they settled for this "friends with benefits" type relationship. They tried to be sneaky. At first it worked, but one time when they were making too much noise at his house, his band found out. It didn't take long for RLH's to find out either.

"We have two hours," He replied with a small smirk, staring into her blue/green eyes. He loved the color of her eyes.

"Let's go," She whispered, grabbing his head. "I'm gonna go...uh...look at merch." She trailed off, looking at One Direction and her band.

Ash rolled her eyes.

"Go ahead,"

"Okay," She smiled. "Kellin care to join me?"

"Don't mind if I do," He answered, following her as she walked away. Once out of sight, they jumped into his band's bus.

"They aren't going to look at stuff, are they?" Niall asked the rest of the band.

"No," Emery sighed.

"Dear God, get a mother fucking room," Liz yelled toward Oli and Roxie, who were still making out. The two only broke apart long enough for Oli to set her back down to the ground.

"Hey to you too," Oli spoke.

The boys noticed that he was British the second that he spoke.

"Hi," Roxie giggled, acting like a little girl.

Ash shook her head at her friend.

"I hate to cut this short, but I really have to work on some stuff with the band so..." Oli rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. "I'm sorry, babe."

Roxie got a little down, but nodded.

"I know. It's okay, Oli. You're busy, I get it." She replied. "Kiss?"

Oli smiled happily, and bent down to kiss his girlfriend.

"I'll catch up with you later, okay?"

"Bye," Roxie waved as her boyfriend back up, and ran toward his bus.

"That was quick," Emery sighed, wrapping an arm around her friend. "Are you okay?"

"Of course," Roxie laughed a fake laugh. "He's just busy."

"That was mighty rude of him," Harry stated, causing everyone to look at him. "I know that he's got a band, but he still needs to make time for you,"

Roxie actually smiled a little bit at Harry's statement.

"Thanks, Harry."

"Don't mention it," He smiled and sent her a small wink. She just rolled her eyes to it.

"I hate to be the bear of bad news...but I really have to go to. My band goes on stage soon. I told them that I would be right back." Zach explained, looking down at Ash.

"Really?" She asked.

"Yeah. But ya know...I'll catch up with you some other time. If I see you, I see you."

"Ditto." Ash smiled slightly, accepting the kiss he gave her before he left without another word. Ash was sort of relieved. Zach and Ash didn't know what to call themselves. They weren't friends before they started to sleep together. They were strangers. They met through Kellin's band at a party. The two hooked up, and that's basically been all they've been doing since then. Ash loved seeing Zach, but that's all their relationship is; it's sex. They aren't even that great of friends. They're awkward around each other most of the time. She wants more than that. Ash really wants a relationship, she's just not ready to get rid of Zach just yet.

Four of the five girls in Reckless Little Hearts led the guys away from the tour bus area, and out in the open. There were so many people attending the warped tour date. There were so many half-naked teenagers. There were a lot of people with tattoos, and older men and women with some of their kids. It was different than their fans. Sure, they had some unique fans, but this was different. Liam was un-comfortable, Harry enjoyed the girls, Louis was having fun, Zayn didn't really care, and Niall was his happy self. The girls didn't say it, but they just wanted Spencer to get back soon. They don't exactly approve of her and Kellin's...relationship.

As soon as Spencer joined them again, she mentioned how some members of Sleeping With Sirens were getting tattooed in their bus. The rest of the RLH girls got excited. They have been wanting to get matching tattoos for a while now, and why not get them at Warped Tour? Sure, the buses were a little sketchy, but they liked the story to tell afterward.

"What are we getting?" Roxie asked them.

The boys didn't know what to think about the girls randomly getting tattoos.

"How about we all get our broken heart symbol?" Emery asked. "I've been wanting to get it for a while."

"That's such a good idea!" Ash nearly yelled. "Where should we get them?"

"I kind of want to get mine on my hip bone." Spencer stated, pulling up her tank top a little bit. "How about right here?"
"You have nail marks," Liz giggled. "A little rough back there, Spence?"

Spencer's face turned almost as red as her hair. She hid her face in her hands, while Roxie shook her head.

"Anyway...I want mine...dammit. I don't know where I want it."

"I'm getting mine next to my inner arm tattoo," Liz stated, holding out her arm.

"I want mine on my shoulder," Ash stated. "Do you think that will look good?"

"Probably." Emery smiled. "I'm getting mine on the back of my neck."

"I still don't know where to get mine!" Roxie nearly yelled.

Louis rolled his eyes with a laugh.

"How about your wrist?"

"That's a great place!" She giggled, hugging him quickly. "Okay, ladies...tattoo time."
