"Brian!" Nick yelled. It was the next day. The guys were on the bus heading to the airport where they would catch a plane back to Florida.

"Nick!" Brian imitated but smiled. The guys could sure use some time away from each other. Nick plopped down next to him and smiled.

"Only" He checked his watch. "Four more hours and 23 minutes till I'm home and able to sleep in my own bed." Nick sighed. Time could not be moving by any slower.

Brian smiled at his friend. "Speeking of home...Nick I've been meaning to ask you something for a while now."

"Sure anything" Brian smiled again. 'Here we go...' Brian thought. "Do you think I could stay with you for while? It won't be long I promise. I was supposed to stay with Kevin and Kristin but I was kinda kicked out because they wanted "time alone." Don't ask me they are married right?" Nick nodded. "I'm not gonna push them to let me stay. You either but what do ya say?"

"Sure man. Stay as long as you want. Its not like I have anybody coming over or anything important to do. I mean my family is at the other side of the country in Cali. I'll probably go visit them next week. Wanna come? I'm sure they would like to see ya."

"Sure. I haven't had a home cooked meal in a long time." Brian smiled while rubbing his stomach and laughing. "God knows you can't cook." Nick laughed. This was true.

A while later the bus came to a stop. "Guys it's time to go." Kevin yelled. The two men grabbed their things and walked off the bus. About an hour later the guys got on the plane and waited to take off.

Nick walked off the plane. He could hardly wait to get home. Him and Brian walked front where there was a car waiting for them after saying good-bye to the others. They talked all the way to Nick's place.

"Brian, go ahead and pick a room. I have to call my Mom and make plans for the trip and unpack." Nick said.

"Okay!" Brian yelled. He was already making his way upstairs to his usual room.

Nick walked into the kitchen and grabbed the phone dialing his parent's number he waited for somebody to pick up.

"Hello?" Aaron asked.

"Hey little man. Is Mom or Dad home?" Nick asked.

"Mom is and don't call me little man. I'm almost 14! Sorta." Aaron yelled.

Nick laughed. That's Aaron for ya. "Get Mom or I won't be coming for a visit. I'm off tour now ya know."

Aaron sighed. "Hold your horses dude!" Nick could hear Aaron yell for their Mom. "Mom phone. It's Nick!"

"Aaron, you don't have to yell I'm in the same room as you."

"Sorry Mom."

"That's okay. Give me the phone."

Nick could hear Jane pick up the phone.

"Hi sweetie!" Jane said smiling.

"Mom don't call me that please. Anyway I wanted to know if it was okay if me and Brian come to Cali for a few weeks and visit? Staying with you guys my lovely family of course!" Now Nick was sucking up. Nick smiled. "Bri's stayin with me till he finds a place of his own. Kev and Kristin kicked him out so they could be alone. I'm almost thinking about just asking him to move in because he's here so much!" Nick laughed. "Brian says he's looking forward to one of your home cooked meals. We all know I can't cook."

Jane Smiled. "He is now. Well, just because of that I'll have to let stay with us. Do you know when your coming?" Jane asked.

"How bout next week? Is that fine? We have the next five months off then we start recording again."

"Yeah. I'm sure everybody would love to see you."

He could hear Aaron yelling in the background again. "Nick's coming to visit! Nick's coming to visit!" Aaron was jumping up and down yelling.

Nick laughed. "I'm sure they will. But listen I have to go unpack and book the flight so if I don't talk to ya soon then see ya next week."

"Okay and Nick?"

"Yeah?"

"I have somebody here that you should meet. It will be very nice surprise!"

"Mom, your not planning to set me up with somebody again are you?" Nick still remember the last time that happened. Lets just say dinner didn't go all that well and he ended up going home with it all over him. Besides, Nick didn't want to get into a relationship right now. Not after what happened last time.

"No Nick I'm not. There's just somebody you have to meet."

"Alrighty then. Anyways I'm goin. Bye"

"Bye hunny!" They hung up.

Nick headed upstairs to unpack and set the flight. When he was done he came back downstairs to see Brian watching Comedy Central and laughing. He shook his head and sat down next to him.

"Okay it's all set. We leave next week Monday at noon. And by the way you owe me money for your ticket bro." Nick Laughed. "Anyways man I'm goin upstairs to sleep."

"Alright. Thanks again for letting me stay."
