Matt continued to stand there, staring at each boy in turn, waiting for an answer. "Well?" He seemed serious. "Tell me. Now." He stepped closer to Alex.

Alex gulped. "Well, you see.." Alex gulped again. He felt a hand on his shoulder, realising it was Jack when he heard him start to speak.

"Matt, Bella has gone into labour." Jack said with a serious look on his face. The boys had never seen him so serious and professional.

"Shit." Matt uttered quietly.

"What do we do?" Rian asked, as he looked from Matt, to Alex.

"Well, Alex is just going to have to go home and get back to Bella, isn't he!"

"Erm no.. if Alex goes, we all go.. we want to be there for the birth of the baby too! And I would have thought you would want to! Considering you're like a Father to Bella." Zack stood forward, his broad muscles intimidating Matt.

"But if we all go, then we have to cancel the meet and greet. And then we'll disappoint our fans. And they can say what they want, you know they'll be pissed that we let them down." Alex worried.

"Yeah and Bella will be pissed if you don't show up to the birth of YOUR baby." Jack shook Alex back into reality. "Look. You NEED to go. We WANT to go. We don't care whether Bella wants us there or not, we want to be there because we've discussed this when you've been out of the room." Jack nodded.

"Many times, in fact!" Zack butted in.

"He's right. We've been there the whole way through this, and we want to go too. I'm sorry but you have no choice in it, Alex." Rian smirked.

"There's just one thing.." Matt added. "Your fans. I know how important it is! Honestly, I do! And yes, I'd love to be there, but we're so close to tomorrow!" Matt pointed to one of the windows of the tour bus. "Go look out of that window. There's a small group of girls there, who have been queuing since this afternoon, so that they could be the first to meet you guys tomorrow!"

Without a word, Jack stormed out of the tour bus and headed towards the group of girls. Half of them started to scream, whilst the other half stood there, shell-shocked. Jack held his hands up to them and motioned for them to stop. He walked right up to them and started speaking, as the boys all watched from the window.

"I'm really sorry to have to do this.." Jack started, as the girls all stood there star-struck. "But.. Alex's fiancee is going into labour. And we all want to be there for the birth, so I'm afraid we're not going to be here for the meet and greet tomorrow." The girls all started squealing with excitement as an array of 'oh my God' and 'it's happening, finally!' were thrown into the air. Jack looked back at the window to see the boys' confused faces. He beckoned them out, to which they followed order. They traipsed out of the bus and ran over to the group.

The girls expressed to Alex how excited they were to hear that Bella had gone into labour, and included many wishes of how they hoped it went perfectly and without a hitch. The boys agreed to take photographs with the fans for a few minutes and sign the items that they had brought, expressing regret when they said they had to leave. But the girls waved them off and told them to hurry up. Alex smiled as they all stepped back on the bus, Matt shaking his head whilst laughing. Matt walked through to the driver and the boys found themselves moving as the bus pulled off and started to drive.

"Please don't say you are taking us to the hospital in the tour bus." Alex begged.

"Don't be stupid. Do you want even more attention drawn to you? You're going home and you're gonna drive to the hospital." Matt slapped Alex around the back of his head. "Idiot. Ring Paige back and let her know what's going on." He pointed to the sofa, ordering Alex to sit down and ring Paige. "Go!" Alex followed command and bounced over to the sofa, with a look of ecstasy about his face. He couldn't help but smile at the fact he was about to become a proper Father.

Zack approached Matt, with a worried look on his face. Whilst he was highly grateful to Matt for agreeing to cancel the meet and greet, he was still worried about the fans. "Matt.. what are we going to do about the fans now? I don't want the band to lose anyone."

"Look Zack, if they get pissed off about this, then they're not real fans. It's the same kinda situation as friends, alright? Would you still be friends with me if I cancelled on you because of a situation as serious as this?"

"Well.. yeah. Of course."

"There you go then. I'll ring the company who sold the tickets. This was an exclusive meet and greet, so it's not like I now have to ring up a dozen ticket companies and explain the situation. I'll ring the ONE company behind it all and explain what's happened, and they will understand because they are not heartless bastards. They'll send an e-mail out to everyone who had tickets for tomorrow and give them two options of either a refund or a ticket for the next one. Which you guys WILL do, once the air has cleared. And everything will be fine. So stop worrying."

Rian and Jack walked up behind Zack, obviously knowing everything that had just been said. "Will it really be that easy?" Rian questioned.

"I wouldn't have let you cancel if I knew it wouldn't be." Matt answered, with a smug grin on his face. "I'm pretty sure that every single fan you have, follow all of us on Twitter. So why don't all of you tweet and apologise for the cancellation. And then see what happens from there."

Jack's cheeks turned red, as he shyly looked down at the floor.

"Jack.. what have you done?" Matt asked, wondering whether or not he really wanted to know the answer.

"Oh.. nothing." He chuckled. Rian brought out his phone and opened his Twitter app, laughing as he read Jack's latest Tweet.

"Rian? Would you like to share?" Matt warned.

"Nah, I'll leave you to see it for yourself.." Rian giggled.
