" So Nick you excited for this tour?"
" Actually I am. Our dancers are great, the show is great, I have my girl with me. All of our tickets sold out so all of the shows are going to be really hyped up!"
" Yeah I know. This is going to be one crazy tour. Then after like three months of this, we have a month off then we start our U.S."
" Yeah. So why didn't Leigh come with us this time?"
" Shooting a new movie..." Brian's voice drifted and his eyes looked out the window.
" Bri? Ya alright man?" Nick's voice was full of concern.
" Nick, something's missing between her and I." He paused and looked up at Nick. " Like I love her, yet its not all there. "
" You were thinking of proposing to her."
" Keyword WERE. I mean she has her modeling and movie shoots to do. I have my singing and touring. Its not even that. Cause for the past three years we've made it work. I don't know?"
" You thinking about breaking up?" Brian let out a heavy sigh and shrugged his shoulders.
" Frick, think about it some more. Even if you've been thinking about it for a while. Give it this tour. And when we go back home, you'll know if you still love her like you did the first day you met her on the set of 'As Long As You Love Me,'"
" Yeah you're right. Thanks Frack."
" Anytime babe." They both laughed and decided to get some sleep.
An hour passed and I woke up to " Want You Back" I smiled because it was my favorite Mandy Moore song. That and " I Wanna Be With You." I looked to my right and Brian was passed out with his head on my shoulder. Nick on my left had his head on my left shoulder. I really needed to stand up because my back and legs were getting cramped. I looked farther over to my left and saw Howie reading a book.
" Hey D!" I whispered. He looked up and smiled.
" What can I do for you?"
" I really need to walk around. How do I get up?"
"They both sleep through anything. You should be fine." He laughed.
" Oh thanks a lot Howie." He just laughed some more. I unbuckled my seat belt and stood up carefully. As soon as I did that, it seemed like every bone in my back and legs cracked. Brian looked up with a weird expression on his face.
" You alright there kid?" I laughed.
" Yeah just a little stiff." I walked over Nick and went over to the bathroom. As I walked down the isle, Kevin was out cold with a music sheet on his table. A.J. had his discommon blaring out Limp Biscuit. I rolled my eyes and laughed.
~*~*6 hrs later*~*~
I had fallen back asleep and when I woke up we were still in the air.
" Nick aren't we supposed to be there yet?"
" Hey sweetie, and yeah like an hour ago. But the plane can't land yet." I sat up.
" Why?"
" Don't worry, just some turbulence. I'm surprised you haven't felt it. Brian's had to use to the bathroom three times. That's why he's over sitting with A.J."
" Poor guy. Ugh I really want to get off this plane."
" You, OK? You look pale."
" Yeah, I just haven't moved around that much."
" Here sit up a little and turn around. " So I did as Nick told me and he began to rub my shoulders.
"Mmm thanks Nick."
" Yup, I"m just going to want one later."
" No problem." Just then we heard someone throwing up in the bathroom. '' Is Brian going to be alright?" I asked worriedly.
" Yeah I'm going to go check on him again. Be right back sweets." He kissed my cheek, unbuckled his seat belt and got up. He walked over to the bathroom.
" How long has he been in there Bone?"
" Like a half hour." Nick knocked on the door. "Hey Brian, you all right?" No answer. " Yo Rok its Nick." Still no reply.
Nick tried opening the door but it was locked.
" He's not answering A.J. I'm worried." AJ stood up.
" Hey Brian open up man. I don't care if you have chunks all over you. Just open the damn door now!" Nothing. Just then a stuartest came up.
" I need you guys to sit down. We're still having some turbulence."
"Do you have a key to this door?"
" No why?"
" Our friend was getting sick in there now he's not answering." Nick said banging on the door.
" Are you sure he's in there?"
" YES!" Both Nick and A. J. yelled.
"Guys what's going on?" Kevin stood up by them. A. J. explained to him about Brian.
" I'm kicking the door open." Nick said and stood back.
" NICK WAIT!" Kevin held his arm. " The door might hit Brian if he is in trouble.
" Watch me care. Something is wrong with my best friend and I want to help him! Now help your cousin or go away." With that Kevin and Nick both kicked the door. At that time Kevin was thankful he had kicked the door open when he did.
" BRIAN!"
