" Anastasia!" Nick yelled and was by my side.
" Stace, its alright. Just breathe." I heard Fatima tell me. " Lay on your stomach."
" I-I can't move." I said between my tears. I felt Fatima and Nick move me so I was lying flat on my stomach.
" Hun, keep breathing. You're not." The pain was so immense I couldn't concentrate on anything else except that.
" Its just a bad muscle cramp. I'm going to rub it out, OK hun?" I nodded my head. She began to message my lower back while Nick my hand and tried to keep me calm. Five minutes later the pain had lessened and my tears stopped. My back was still a little stiff and I sat against Nick. I was breathing kind of hard but I was quiet.
" Yo Fatima what's up?!" I heard A.J yell.
" Bones keep it down for a little bit." She walked over to Nick and I handed me a glass of water and two Motrin " Here take these." So I did.
" What happened to you doll?" A.J. asked kneeling down to the ground.
"She got a really bad muscle cramp in her back."
"Ouch babes, I'm sorry. You alright now?"
I nodded my head.
" Want me to try my other leg now Fatima?" I asked joking around.
" Haha yeah right. Tomorrow is another day. Nick why don't you bring her over to the couch. I'm going to go get your music ready."
" OK. Hun can you stand up?"
" Yeah." With A.J's and Nick's help I stood up.
" You're still hurting aren't you?"
" A little." I started walking but stopped. " Or a little more than a little." He carefully picked me up and brought me over to the couch.
" You did great today baby girl." He kissed my forehead.
" Thanks." I smiled. He leaned in and gave me a kiss.
" Sounds like the rest of the guys are here. If you feel up to it you can come watch us in a bit."
" I want to come now."
" I think you should rest."
" Nah I'll be fine. It doesn't hurt that much anymore." I stood up and smiled at him. Just then Brian came running over.
" Stacia, hun are you alright?" I laughed a little as I saw the panic in Brian's eyes.
" I'm fine now. Thanks though."
" Good, cause I heard Fatima telling Kevin. Ya had me worried there kid." I laughed and gave him hug.
" See its all good."
" OK well...Frack we have to go dance now so come on." I walked over to where the guys were dancing with Nick's arm around the small of my back. He led me to a chair and made sure I was OK.
" Nick, hun. I'm fine, now go strut your stuff!" He laughed and cat walked over to the rest of the guys.
~*~ 3 hours later~*~
" OK guys, I want to see you here at lets say 6 am sharp! And Nick, what happened? Just because you stop touring you can become lazy. I got news for you bud. We only have about 15 days to get these dances ago. Now cut back on the junk food and get back into the swing of things. QUICKLY!"
" Oooo." All the guys said in unison. Nick just glared at him and he walked over to me. I couldn't help it and fell into a fit of laughter. The look on Nick's face was priceless.
" Oh you're a lot of help." He said grabbing his water bottle and taking a big gulp.
" I'm sorry baby." I stood up.
" No you're not."
" I'll show you how sorry." I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a long passionate kiss.
