Chapter 14
After their concert in Columbus Ohio, on the bus to Louisville KY
"That was really good show tonight," JC announced,
"Yah, it just seemed to click for all of us," Chels agreed.
"I think it is because we have 'relaxed' a little these last few days," Brandi
said, referring to the fact the psycho hadn't done anything the last 2
cities they had been at.
"Yah!" they all answered with wide eyes.
"Hey Lance, are we goin to Lexington after Louisville?" Katy asked.
"Yah," Lance replied a little curiously.
"Doesn't the rest of your family live there?" Cheryl asked while she sat in
Chris's arms on the small couch of the bus.
"Yuppers. They live about an hour from Lexington in a REALLY small town. I
hope I can see them," Katy answered.
"Are they coming to the concert?" Cheryl inquired.
"I sent them tickets and back stage passes, but I haven't had a chance to talk to them with all this stuff going on."
"I know what ya mean," Cheryl said, remembering how she missed her family.
"Well, come on guys I'm beat. Lets get some zzzz's!!" JC suggested.
"Your always ready to sleep!!" Kimber joked.
He whispered in her ear," That's because your usually in my dreams,"
as she astarted blushing at his surprising comment the others started in with
joking "oohhhhh, aawwwww, and get a rooms!!"
"Your one to talk," JC jokingly snapped at Chris.
"Ok bed time!" He quickly replied with a smile.
They all headed to their bunks for some zzz's before they got to the hotel in
Louisville.
~~~~~~~~~~~~In the hotel meeting room the next morning for briefing~~~~~~~~~~
"I know things have been a little hectic, but there is gonna be a break. There
is construction at the small hall in Lexington, so you will have a a choice,
the whole day off with extra interviews the next day, or all the interviews
that day and 2 light days. So what will it be? Dana asked.
"I say a whole day off!" Brandi screamed.
"Me 2" Kimber and Chels chimed in.
"Sounds strange, a whole day off, I like it though," Chris piped up.
"So does everyone agree?" Dana asked.
"Yup!" they all answered.
"Well that settles it, you'll have a day off!" Dana announced, " Your fans are
gonna be disappointed that the construction is goin on, but they'll get over
it. I get to see you all everyday, so I don't have to fret," she added.
Everyone smiled and thanked her, but were a little thrown by this comment. The
guys wondered if she liked one of them or something. Oh well.
"Now for today and tomorrow, its just gonna be the same old grind. yall know
the drill, press, sound check, concert, hotel."
"We know," they all replied a little more enthusiastically now that they knew
that had a day off coming
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During that day, they were all a little perkier than usual, flirting and
carrying on. Chris and Cheryl got caught playing "hockey" 5 times. (you know
what I mean) Chelsea was totally happy with how flirtatious Joey was. Most
girls thought he came on a little strong, but she LIKED it, She especially had
fun when she could tickle his go-tee. JC even seemed to be a little
less serious today, which was a pleasant change, esp. for Kimberly, she got to
know him a lot better.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~that night in the guys room~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You know, I really got to know Kimber better today than I have almost all
tour." JC said to the guys. (they were sharing a suit across the hall from
the girls' suit)
"I know what ya mean, Chels and I are really starting to hit it off." Joey
remarked, "finally, somebody that like to flirt as much as I do."
"I didn't think that was possible!" Chris joked.
"I didn't think it was possible to play that much 'hockey' in a concert hall!" He joked.
"Well it is!!" Chris said with a smirk on his face, "and its really fun too!"
he added.
"You two are really hitting it off huh?" Justin asked.
"Yah, Cheryl is great. What bout you and Brandi?"
"We talk and joke a lot, but she can be hard to read. I like he a lot, but I
have no idea what to do. Hey Lance, What about you and Katy? Justin asked.
"Well," he started to say as he turned a little red, "I like her a LOT but..."
"But what?" JC asked.
"I don't know," he answered.
"Don't know what?"
"I like her and I think she likes me, and truthfully, I would REALLY like to
sorta make things official, but I want to do it in a special way." Lance
finally said.
"You really like her huh?" Joey asked.
"Yah, I do. I even think that the schedule thing would work its self out after
the tour, but I just don't know."
"Well, you never know till you try," Justin said. "That sounds really cheesy ya
know?"
"It does, but I guess your right,"Lance replied.
Yah Justin, your starting to sound like JC!" Chris joked.
"Haha." Justin answered as he hit Chris in the head.
"Lets do something for them on our day off." JC suggested, ignoring Chris's
comment.
"What?" Joey asked.
"I got it!" Lance exclaimed.
Everyone liked his suggestion (you'll see what it is later)
"Now I remember why we call you stealth" Joey remarked.
