I said, �Don�t worry I won�t hurt you, I�m Leighanne, What�s your Name?�
�I dunno� she said in a soft scared voice
�Well will you come in with me, maybe we can figure this out,� I said
�I guess,� She said wrapping her arms around herself.
�C�mon,� I said Gently leading her to the bus, I saw Brian checking in so I grabbed AJ and said, �AJ can you ask Brian to come out here, I need to talk to him�
�Sure Leigh� AJ said then walked off.
I opened one of the drawers that held my clothes and pulled out a pair of sweat pants and a Baggy T-shirt. I gave the clothes to the girl and directed her into the Bathroom to Change; Seconds after the bathroom door closed Brian stepped onto the bus.
�Brian, I saw someone walking down the street who looked familiar, she has no Idea who she is though, she�s in pretty rough shape.�
The bathroom door opened, I turned and Brian said � I�m going to get Aaron,� he started to leave then added, �Leigh, can you try to get her cleaned up a bit more, I�ll be right back�
I got a clean face cloth, and I washed her face like you would a young child. The door opened and Brian came on followed by Aaron, Aaron�s jaw dropped and he blinked a couple times in rapid succession.
(Aaron�s P.O.V.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Flashback ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
�I�m leaving, Aaron, I can�t handle the pressure, everyone thinks I�m perfect, I�m not, I want to wear my jeans when I walk down the street, I want to be able to walk down the street without people hating me and swearing at me.�
�Danielle, I�ll do anything, I love you� I said
�Let me go, you�ve wanted to be famous your whole life, just let me go,� Danielle said.
�Danielle, Nothing is more important to me than you,� But Danielle was already gone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ End Flashback ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I ran out of Brian�s and Leighanne�s bus to my own I pulled out all of the drawers in my bus looking for the picture that Nick�s girlfriend, Baylee had given to me of Danielle, and the clothes she had left. I pressed a shirt to my nose and breathed in the smell I started to cry.
(Leighanne�s P.O.V.)
�Why did that guy run out?� The girl asked still standing where she had since she came out of the bathroom.
�I don�t know,� I said, �Aaron�s unpredictable like that�
�Leigh, she looks almost exactly like Danielle� Brian whispered in my ear.
�Yah, can you do me a favor hunny, get Kristen and send her here, then talk to the guys about this,� I whispered back in his ear.
�Do you have any family?� I addressed the girl after Brian had left
�I dunno,� I noticed a slight accent in her soft voice.
Kristen came onto the bus and her jaw dropped, but she recovered quickly and said, �Hi, I�m Kristen.�
�So Kris are our husbands talking?� I asked.
�Yah,� Kristen said, �Brian was right�
Suddenly Nick appeared on the step and said, �I can�t find Aaron, do either of you know where he is?�
�Check his bus, just watch where you step, cause it�s a mess,� I replied.
�What? Ok, whatever,� Nick said then he noticed the girl for the first time, �Danielle is it really you?�
�Who�s Danielle?� the girl asked curiously.
�Nick, Kevin and Brian are probably looking for you and Aaron, so get him, then find Kevin,� Kristen said
We tried to take the girl to the hospital, but at the mention of it she started crying, so we got a doctor to come check her out instead, he confirmed that she had amnesia. While the doctor was in with the girl we all talked and decided to ask her if we could call her Danielle, since she looked so much like the one we knew. The night we found Danielle the guys didn�t have a show, so we just hung out at the hotel, Brian had got Danielle a room and she would stay on our bus when we traveled. At the first concert Danielle listened intently to the music, at times closing her eyes and pretending to play the keyboards. Before �Back to your heart� Aaron said, �I�d like to dedicate this song to my ex-girlfriend.�
Danielle had tears in her eyes as the song ended. After the concert Kristen and I took Danielle back to the hotel while the guys stayed and did a meet �n� greet. I set Danielle up in her room with some clean clothes and a nighty I had bought for her, then I went into Brian�s and my room to get ready for Brian to get back.
(Danielle�s P.O.V.) I sat on my bed and turned on my TV; I had been with Leigh Kristen and the guys since October. I got along with Kristen, Leigh and Aaron the best. In one of the short conversations I�d had with Nick he told me that he was surprised that Aaron and I getting along so well, the thing was, I felt I could tell Aaron anything, and he told me a lot too. All of the guys had bought me clothes one time or another in the first month. After the first three weeks I had moved onto Aaron�s bus because he and I got along so well and I moved to much in my sleep and though I was on the other side of the bus Brian and Leighanne couldn�t sleep with the extra movement. Aaron and I talked often and on November 23, one month after the group had taken me in I was sitting in my hotel room, watching Much Music when Mariah Carey�s hit �Hero� came on, I just listened to her sing, I didn�t look at the TV once, I loved the song. Next an older Jessica Simpson song came on and I listened to that, the songs were all from 2001 so I listened to and watched every song they played from that time two years before.
~~~ Flashback ~~~
�Two more Canadians have been confirmed dead, their names have been withheld to protect their family�s privacy.�
The news had torn me up inside and I knew, it was Sept 23/01 when it had been confirmed, my parents had died on Sept 11/01 a tragic day for most of America, the only thing was that I was away from home at the time. I had broken up with my boyfriend on Sept 23 and went home, I never did tell him the real reason why; I had just told him I couldn�t handle everyone thinking I was perfect. I just couldn�t see my boyfriend�s face for some reason.
~~~ End Flashback ~~~
I was pulled out of my thoughts by a knock on the door, I got up and let Aaron in, since we were only 14 we couldn�t go with the guys to the clubs or anything, so we stayed at the hotel. It was usually just the two of us hanging out in one of our rooms but sometimes we�d hang out with AJ and Amanda.
