We hit the road after saying our goodbyes.
I crawled into mine and Mike’s shared bunk and stretched out to go to sleep.
Jaime poked his head in, “Hey Jenna, whatcha doing?”
I looked up, “Seriously Jaime, what does it look like I’m doing?”
He shrugged mindlessly, “Planking?”
I rolled my eyes, “I was going back to sleep.”
He smiled, “Oh! Okay, well get back to that.”
I sighed and put the pillow over my head, only to have it yanked off two minutes later, “Jenn, have you seen my phone charger?”
“I told you that you were going to forget something.” I muttered.
“Jennaaaa.” He whined.
I sighed, “Mine’s in my blue Hurley bag.”
He pecked me on the cheek, “Thanks babe, love you.”
“I love you too.” I mumbled back.
I started falling asleep again, when the bus hit a pothole, sending me tumbling out of the bunk, and into the floor.
“Ouch.” I whispered, rubbing my head and my ass.
“You alright Jenn?” Vic asked.
I signaled a thumbs up, and stood up, “Never better.”
Vic smiled, “We’ve just been informed that Dave had a little to drink this morning.”
“Fantastic.” I mumbled.
“Why don’t you come hang out with us rather than being tossed around like a rag doll back there?” He asked.
I shrugged, “Might as well, I’m not going to get anymore sleep.”
I walked into the front and sat on the couch, laying across Mike’s lap.
“Tired?” He asked.
“Yes, and Dave’s driving is depriving me of any possible sleep.”
“Sorry Jenna!” Dave called.
I moved my body around, to where I was sitting in Mike’s lap, my head on his shoulder.
“What time is it?” I mumbled into his neck.
“Half-past noon.” He replied, kissing the top of my head.
“What time is the show?”
“Eight.” Tony answered.
“So, what are we going to do for eight hours.”
Mike laughed, “You’ve obviously forgotten what tour life is like with us.”
I gave him a look.
“We drink, of course!” Vic crowed, getting the liquor out of the cabinet.
“What if I don’t wanna drink?” I asked.
“Then you’ll spend the night babysitting us.” Jaime shrugged.
“On second thought, give me that Jack Daniel’s.” I called, sitting upright.
Vic handed me the bottle, and I spun off the lid, taking several big gulps.
I handed the bottle to Mike, and my throat and chest burned.
“Fuck, I’ve missed that burn!” I yelled, reaching for the tequila bottle.
“Take it slow, we don’t need you hurting yourself.”
“Vic, I’m a grown woman, I can handle my liquor, besides, look who I live with.”
I tipped the bottle back and swallowed three mouthfuls.
The burn returned, and I reached for more.
The bottle of Vodka made it’s way back around, and I tipped it to my lips.
“Fuck shotglasses, we go hard in the paint motherfuckers!”
“Jagermeister coming out!” Vic crowed.
I struggled to my feet, anxious for the first taste, and snatched the bottle from him.
I unscrewed the lid and spit it across the room, before chugging down a fourth of the bottle, and handing it off to Casey.
“Jenna’s wasted!!!” Tony yelled.
I thrust my fist in the air, “Trashed!”
We finished off the four bottles we had out, and Vic got out the Jameson and Maker’s Mark.
Chris, the manager, was worried we were all getting too wasted, and stepped in, “You guys have a show to play tonight, and Mike, you’ve got your girlfriend’s dignity to worry about.”
We all gave him a look.
“Look, I’m just saying, Jenna is one shot away from taking off all her clothes and sucking someone’s dick.”
I smiled spitefully, and turned up the bottle of Jameson, chugging down ¾ of the bottle.
“Fine, whatever. You’re all adults, I’m just trying to keep you from doing something stupid.”
“I got a surprise for you guys, Jenna, don’t get grabby, you WILL regret it.” Casey said, walking into the back.
He returned with a bottle of Hot Damn.
“Regret it my ass! Give me that!” I yelled, grabbing the bottle.
“Jen, that’s some mean shit, you’d better be careful.” Mike warned.
I laughed took a big gulp.
This burn was ten times worse than any of the previous ones, but I loved it.
Mike took a shot, laughing, “Feeling the burn yet?”
I nodded, “Yeah! Let’s do more shots.”
“We’re going to make this really fun.” Mike grinned deviously, pulling something out of his pocket.
He handed it to me, along with a lighter and smiled, “Jenna, you get to torch it first.”
I smiled and put the joint in my mouth, lighting it up, and taking a deep breath.
I exhaled, and handed it to Tony, “This is perfect. And to think, I almost stayed home and missed out on all this fun.”
“Yeah, it’s about time you stopped being a party pooper!” Mike cried, hugging me.
“So, am I getting laid later, or what?” He whispered in my ear.
I smiled, “Only if you’re a good boy, or a bad boy. It all depends on you.”
He smiled, “My dirty little girl.”
“Where’s the other bottle of Jager? I’m not done getting shit-faced yet!” Tony yelled.
Vic tossed the other bottle of Jager to him and he started drinking it down.
“Save some for me, asshole!” I yelled.
“We’re going in the back, see you guys later.” Mike winked, picking me up, and throwing me over his shoulder.
“Bye guys!” I laughed.

Later, I woke up in our bunk, completely naked.
Vic was calling to Mike from the front.
I sat up and reached for my phone, checking the time.
5:15pm.
I felt around for my clothes, finding Mike’s shirt, and my denim shorts.
I pulled my clothes on, and raked my messy brown waves into a ponytail.
I walked into the front, “Mike’s still asleep.” I murmured, sitting down.
“You’re hungover.” Vic commented with a smile.
I shook my head, “No, I’m still drunk. I haven’t slept off any of the alcohol yet.”
“MIKE!!!” Tony yelled.
I cringed, “Do you have to yell next to my ear? Shit.”
Tony smiled a drunken, apologetic smile.
“Was the sex at least good?” Jaime asked.
I nodded, “It was great. But it’s always great with Mike.”
“Okay! I do not want to know about you and my brother having sex!” Vic cried, laughing.
I chuckled, “Awe, come on Vic, you don’t wanna hear how your brother fucked me with his thick, sexy..”
“STOPPPP!” Vic cried, clamping his hands over his ears.
I laughed, and suddenly felt my stomach churning.
I jumped up and ran to the bathroom, just in time to puke up my guts.
“Hot damn don’t taste so good coming back up, does it?”
“Fuck off Tony!”
He laughed.
Mike drunkenly rushed to my side, “Are you alright babe?”
I wiped my mouth, “Yeah, just drunk.” I mumbled.
He sat beside me, “I’m sorry.”
I kissed his scruffy face, “It’s okay babe, I still love you.”
I jumped up and puked again, “But I’ll be glad when this is over.”
He rubbed my back for a minute, then he jumped up and pushed me out of the way to puke.
I laughed.
“They’re both puking back there!” Tony cried.
“You’d better hold yours in until they’re done.” Vic teased.
Finally, we’d puked up everything in our system, and we cleaned our faces up.
“Good to see you.” Tony teased.
I smiled at him, doubled over and wretched.
He turned green and rushed to the bathroom.
Vic grabbed a trashcan, and Jaime puked in the sink.
I laughed aloud.
“Jenna, that’s not funny.” Mike whined, his own face a pale shade of green.
He had nowhere to go, and nothing on his stomach, so he doubled over and dry-heaved stomach bile into the floor.
I sighed and cleaned up the mess.
Mike laid back on the couch.
“I told you guys to take it easy.” Chris said.
We all gave him a dirty look.
“I bet the bands a mile behind us could hear Jenna moaning.” He went on.
“We had to hear it, and that’s bad enough.” Vic groaned.
“Shut up, we all know you’d jump Jenna’s bones if you had the chance.” Chris laughed.
I ducked my head down to hide my blush.
I was secretly kind of attracted to Vic, but I’m not the kind of girl who betrays someone they love like that.

“Get up Jenna, I’ll finish cleaning it up.” Mike whispered, putting his hand on my back.
I reluctantly stood up, and looked at Vic, who avoided eye contact.
Honestly, I think he’s attracted to me too, but again, he’s not selfish enough to act on his impulses.
I sat on the couch and looked at my phone, I had a text and missed call from my mom.
From: Mom
Hey sweetie, I heard you were going with Mike on tour. Just wanted to tell you I love you and please be safe!
I dialed her number, and it rang a couple of times, “Hello?”
“Lily, where’s mom?”
“Doing yoga in the living room.”
“Tell her I called then. Where’s dad?”
“Golfing I think.”
“Where’s Noah?”
“Soccer game.”
“Okay, just have mom call me when she’s done then.”
“No need, I’m here Jenna.”
“Hi mom.” I said.
“Hi sweetie. How’s life on the road?”
“Great. We’ll reach our first destination soon.”
“Where’s that?”
“Phoenix, Arizona.”
“How’s Mike?”
“He’s doing great. He’s just watching TV.”
“Tell Dad I miss him. Noah too.”
“Noah and Dad miss you too, sweetheart. So does Lily, though she won’t admit it.”
“We’re sibling rivals, I wouldn’t expect her to. But I know she does.”
“Well, give Mike a hug for me, and like I said, you kids be safe.”
“We will mom.”
“Okay, bye sweetie. I love you.”
“Love you too mom. Bye.”
“How’s old Meg?” Mike asked.
“She’s fine. Doing yoga.”
“Hot.” Mike joked.
I laughed, “Oh yeah.”
“Where’s the aspirin?” Tony called.
“Up your ass, turtle boy!” I yelled back.
“Screw off Jenna.”
I climbed off the couch, and Mike grabbed my waist, “I love you.”
I smiled down at him, “I love you too.”
“Will you bring me a water, and some aspirin?”
I nodded.
“I heard what you said by the way, and you were pretty great too.”
I laughed and retrieved the aspirin, dispensing four to each of them.
“Boys and girl, we’re one hour away from our destination of Phoenix, Arizona.” Dave announced.
“Good, I’m sick of these bozos already.” I joked.
“So, you gonna jump off the bus and go home?” Tony asked.
I shook my head, “I’m going to take a shower, and get a good meal. And sleep in a bed with my boyfriend instead of a box.”
“You’re so whiny, you should’ve stayed home.” Tony teased.
“Shut up.” I snapped, hitting him.
After what seemed like days, we made it into Phoenix.
“Alright, we’re at the venue. After you boys set up and have sound check, you can go to the hotel and rest up.” Chris said.
They all loaded out, and started setting up, while I walked to a nearby Wendy’s.
I bought cheeseburgers for everyone, and walked back.
They’d just started sound check.
I braided my hair, while thinking how much I already needed another shower.
I smelled like alcohol, puke, and Mike’s sweat.
Three scents that would make my mother oh, so proud of me.
“Jenna?” Mike called.
“Yeah, I’m over here. I brought dinner.”
“That’s why I love you.” He grinned.
I rolled my eyes, “That’s not the only reason, and you know it.”
He laughed, “Give me the damn burger, and quit being a pain.”
I smiled, “I need a shower, I stink.”
His lips brushed mine, “I think you smell great.”
I nibbled on his lip, “You would think so. I smell like you.”
“That’s the best aroma there is. I could sell it as cologne.”
I rolled my eyes, “You’re so full of yourself.”
He laughed and kissed me, “Last I checked, you were full of me.”
I playfully shoved him, “Oh stop it.”
“Thanks for dinner.” He said.
“You’re welcome, where are the rest of the boys?”
“I don’t know.” He shrugged, biting into his burger again.
“Well, their food is going to get cold.”
“Oh well, their loss.” Mike shrugged.
Just then, Vic and Jaime appeared.
“Sweet. Wendy’s. Thanks Jenn.”
I nodded, “Yeah, no big deal.”
“Food!” Jaime cried, tearing into his burger.
“God, you eat like a pig.” I commented.
He laughed, “I’m starving.”
“Yeah, but you’re not a rabid animal.”
“When you’re around, I am.” He wiggled his eyebrows, and winked.
“Down boy, she’s mine, and yours would kill you.”
He just shrugged, “I’m just saying, I’d tear that shit up.”
“Go wash your feet or something, they’re rank.”
He pouted, “Fine.”
I rolled my eyes, “He’s a pervert.”
Mike shrugged, “We know. But he’s not going to get you, so he can forget it.”
After the boys got finished eating, we all went to the hotel and checked in.
Mike and I were rooming together.
“Finally, a shower!” I cried, turning on the water.
“Hurry up, I want a shower too.” He called after me.
“I’ll try to save some hot water.”
The water felt good, and I scrubbed off the vomit and alcohol smell.
“Hey, where’s my phone charger?” Mike called through the door.
“We went through this already, you forgot it, use mine.”
“Okay.”
I finished my shower and dried off, “Okay, I’m out, your turn.”
He walked in, already naked, and kissed me, “We could’ve saved hot water and showered together.”
I smiled, “We had sex once today, I think that’s enough.”
He pouted.
I shook my head, “No sir, take your shower, I’m going to grab a nap.”
I got dressed, and braided my hair.
I turned on the TV, and put it on MTV.
There was a knock on the door, so I got up.
“Hi Vic, what’s up?”
“Mike in here?” He asked.”
I shook my head, “Yeah, he’s in the shower.”
“I need to talk to you.”
“What’s wrong, you seem upset.”
He sat on the bed, and looked up at me, “Jenna, I…”
He trailed off, and sniffled.
“Vic.” I whispered.
He looked up, tears falling, “I’m in love with you.”
