Chapter Three
“YAY!!! Thannnkks Bone I feel bunches better,” Brian said in a drunken slur.
“Yeah man sometimes you just gotta say fuck da world,” Aj said in the same
tone. Brian got up to get another beer, as he was walking to the fridge be
bumped into the wall. “Ooops..*giggle*” he grabbed his beer and sat back
down in the booth in front of a laughing Aj. Seconds later they were greeted
with the sounds of a sleepy stumble coming down the hall. “What in fucking
hell is going on here,” I asked sitting down next to Aj. “Its a partyyyyy,” Aj
put his arm around me. “Lets have a partyy,” Brian sang. “Oh my god, you guys
are fucking drunk?!?!?! Its one thing for you guys to party on weekends but
while were on the bus, NO WAY you guys better get sobered up REAL fast
cause Kevin Nick and Howie are gonna be super pissed off at you guys,” I took
away Brian and Aj’s beers. “Heyyyy give those back,” Aj slurred. “NO, you are
such a dumbass, LOOK AT YOURSELVES, YOU HAVE TO DO A CONCERT
TOMORROW NIGHT,” I lowered my voice, “You guys look like shit and your
gonna look even worse later when you get up, so I suggest you drink this,” I
placed a cup of coffee in front of each of them. “Stupid stupid stupid....”
Brian banged his head on the table. “STOP!! god damn, your gonna get a bruise
on your head and people will think Alex hit you or something,” I said stopping
him. Aj and Brian looked at me like I was crazy. “Fuck I feel like I have 5
children sometimes,” I got up and walked to my bunk. “No more drinking, do
you understand me? NONE on the bus ever again, I don’t care whatever the
reason is but don’t ever drink on this bus again. Tomorrow we’re having a talk,
a very long talk when your sober and its not like I’m talking to a damn wall,” I
walked away. “YES MOTHER,” Brian and Aj yelled at me. “GO TO HELL,” I
yelled as I got in my bunk. “What’s going on?” Nick asked. His bunk was right
across from mine. “Nothin Nicky, we’ll deal with it in the morning,” “OK
sweetie, goodnight,” Nick yawned. “Goodnight Nicky,” I laid down and went to
sleep hoping everything would be OK in the morning.
*morning*
“Oh my god....” When I woke up this morning I was not one bit ready
for what I saw. I woke up and walked into the kitchen and passed out at the
booth was Brian and Aj. “Oh my god you dumbasses......” I walked over and
nudged Brian. What to do...what to do, when they wake up I’m gonna give them
a big fuckin piece of my mind... Slowly I walked to the sink and got a glass of
cold water. “Here goes nothing...” I poured the glass over Brians head.
“WHAT THE FUCK??” Brians head sprang up “owwww.” “OK dumbass I told
you to go to bed last night,” I said as I walked back to the sink to get water
for Aj. “FUCKING HELL!” Aj also sprang up “Damn my head....” “You had it
coming, I told both of you to go to bed last night and drink that coffee, but
did you listen to me?? NO YOU DIDN’T AND NOW THERES REALLY GONNA
BE SOME BAD SHIT HAPPENIN TODAY WHEN NICK, KEVIN AND HOWIE
WAKE UP,” I screamed. “You know what you guys are?” I said after I calmed
down a bit, “You guys are selfish little brats who only care about yourselves,
if you had any consideration for anyone else on this bus besides yourselves
you wouldn’t have gotten drunk last night, like I said last night but you were
too drunk to remember so I’m gonna say it again, it is one thing to go out on
the weekends or days you have off and party till dawn, hell we’ve all done it,
even me but it is a whole other fucking story when your not off and you get
drunk on the bus going to a concert so your 13 year old fans can see you, and
today they’re gonna see their idols with hangovers. Next time think before
you do stupid shit. Right now I cant stand to look at you.....” I got up and
walked towards the end of the bus. When I turned around I saw Howie, Nick
and Kevin all looking at me then they glared at Brian and Aj. “We heard
everything you said Court, go lay down and we’ll take care of this . Thanks,”
Nick said giving me a hug. “Thanks Nicky, now if you’ll excuse me I cant stay
here another minute,” I walked towards the end area of the bus. I got there and sat on the huge couch and thought. Why did I act like that?
You know why you acted like that, I really need to get over that. Thats your
past Courtney and you told yourself to never look back and you’re not going to
start now. thats your past, your future is here...with your boys. think about
the future... I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t even notice Kevin
Howie and Nick come in and sit beside me. Kevin and Howie on my right and
Nick on my left. “Hey girlie you looked pretty deep in thought right then,
wanna talk about anything?” Howie asked. Maybe you should tell them.....no
your promised yourself you were never gonna tell anyone, its your past. dont
live in the past. “No I’m fine but thanks Howie and I know you guys are here
for me, you always have been,” I smiled, “So what happened after i left?”
Nick put his head in his hands. “They’re hungover and we told them that we
dont care how they feel they’re doing that damn show tonight,” Nick said.
“I’m worried about Brian,” I said and it caused all three heads to look at me.
“I know what you mean,” Nick put his arm around me. “We’re all worried about
him,” Kevin said. “Whats happening to us? We used to be so tight,” Howie
sighed. “Hey you guys are gonna get through this, sooner or later Brian is
bound to wake up and see what hes doing,” I tried to make them feel better.
I am going to have a talk with Brian later and he is going to listen to every
damn word I have to say. The bus stopped and Kevin got up to look out the
window. “We’re at the hotel, guys.” Howie and Kevin walked out of the room
leaving me and Nick still sitting on the couch. “ I dont wanna go out there,” I
told Nick. “Sweetie its going to be OK, I’ll go with you,” Nick pulled me up and
put me over his sholder. “NICKOLAS PUT ME DOWN,” I screamed laughing. “
No way this is first class service to your room,” he laughed. cute. We pasted
Aj and Brian still sitting at the table. please dont let them say anything to
me. “Nick wait!” Aj yelled. fuck. “Go faster Nicky just ask like you didnt hear
him,” I told him. “No he might have something important to say and if he
upsets you I’ll beat the shit out of him,” Nick put me down. “My hero,” I joked.
Aj came up to me. Damn I hope this goes fast. “Courtney I am really sorry. I
know I fucked up like big time and I didnt mean to upset you like i did,” “Aj...”
I began. “No let me finish, you’re one of my best friends and your a sister to
all of us, you’ve stuck with us through everything and i dont wanna fuck up our
friendship just because I made a very stupid mistake,” Aj finished looking in
my eyes. Wow...dont cry dont cry dont cry. I reached up and gave Aj a big
hug. “Alex your not going to lose me and I know I did over react about the
whole thing but theres reasons to that. You two did screw up and I’m glad one
of you sees that,” I whispered. Aj kissed my cheek. “What are the reasons
you acted like that?” Aj asked. I turned white. Oh fuck why did I say that?
fuck fuck fuck. “Where did Nick go?” I tried to change the subject. “Baby
dont change the subject, whats wrong?” “God nothing is fucking wrong,” I
walked away from AJ and found Nick getting my bags. Damn I feel so bad for
doing that. He means well, god Aj why do you have to care so much? “Nick you
don't have to do that,” I took a bag from him. “Yes I do now come on,” he took
the bag and I followed him to my room. “What happened with you and Aj?” I
opened the door to my room. “He apologized that was it,” I sat on the couch in
my room. “Are you sure, you look a little pale,” Damn why do these guys have
to care so much? You can not tell them, never. You promised yourself and
you’ve kept it a secret this long dont fuck it up now. “Nothing is wrong Nick,”
“If you say so but I want you to know that I’m hear if you wanna talk, I’m
gonna go get my bags so I’ll talk to ya later,” Nick hugged me. “ See ya Nick” as
soon as he walked out the door I sighed loudly, layed on the couch and
began to cry silently.
