Farts

" What's better than being stuck in a van with five kids for a week?" Gavin asked. " Anything else," He groaned as Carter farted again.

" Stop farting," I screamed, hitting his arm as Phillip laughed.

" Maybe you should vlog through the pain," Gavin suggested.

Aidan pulled his phone out since our cameras were in our bags and started recording.

" Hey guys," Carter and Phillip said at the same time. Aidan pointed the camera towards Josh.

" Hi, this is very uncomfortable," He said bashfully.

" Hello," Aidan said, pointing the camera towards himself. " This is day one on our road trip. Everyday we're going to film and leave it up to you guys to guess where we're going," He smiled.

Carter farted again.

" Stop farting!" Josh begged, rolling his window down.

" I can't! I fart when I'm hungry," He frowned.

" Can we get some food?" I asked Gavin.

" Gladly," He said, pulling out of the highway and following the signs to a gas station.

" Good news, we're getting food!" Phillip said before going back to his phone.

" Who are you texting?" Aidan asked.

" My girlfriend," Phillip said, raising his eyebrow. " Maybe you should get one," He added.

" Fuck you," Aidan laughed, turning the camera towards Carter and I.

" Anything you two wanna say?" He asked.

" Fuck off," I said.

" Shut the fuck up, brain defect."

" You did not just go there you prick-"

"Okay perhaps it's time to stop the vlog here," Josh yelled as Carter waved at the camera.

Aidan turned it off and we kept calling each other names until Gavin stopped at the gas station and we ran out of the van, leaving him complaining about his job.

Carter ran into the bathroom and the rest of us spread out and picked up drinks and junk food.

" I really have to go pee," Phillip pouted, handing me his Arizona and pastries.

" Hurry up," I sighed, looking through magazines while Aidan joined me. Josh was waiting in line for coffee.

" Where's Carter?" Aidan asked.

" Still in the bathroom... With Phillip," I said, smirking at the realization before going back to the magazine in my hand.

" Can I tell you something? I think they have a thing for each other," Aidan said.

" All of us think that," I laughed.

Josh walked into the bathroom and we heard him yelp before he closed the door.

" What do you think he saw?" I asked as we got in line to pay.

" Probably Carter and Phillip making out. I swear, they really do like each other but Phillip is technically dating Christina, and I'm kind of confused," He said, half-laughing.

Three girls walked into the store, all of them wearing band merch and one of them had scandalous red hair. She saw us and started swatting her friend's arm.

" Why do they look like they're having a heart attack?" I giggled as Aidan smiled at them.

" Hi!" The shorter girl said as they walked towards us. " We watch you guys on YouTube a lot," She said, looking very composed next to her friends.

" Thanks, I like your shirt," I said, glancing at her Panic at the Disco tee.

" You guys should cover one of their songs!" She said.

Aidan nodded," Sounds like a good idea," He said.

" Can we get a picture?!" The girl with red hair asked.

" Sure," I said hesitantly. I probably looked awful after sitting in a car for the past few hours.

They got their phones out and took pictures while other people gave us weird looks.

" Thank you guys so much," Red-hair said, hugging Aidan who was closest to her.

" No problem," He said shyly. I laughed at his sudden quietness.

" Are the rest of the guys here? Why are you in Georgia?" She asked.

" Traveling. We're going somewhere to do new things, we're also filming and uploading a new vlog everyday," I said.

" Are you touring already?" One asked.

Josh and Phillip came out of the bathroom. Carter came out last.

" Oh my gosh!" Red hair screamed. " We need a picture! Thanks for everything," She said before they ran towards the others.

" How crazy was that?" I asked Aidan as we payed for our tea and cookies and chips.

" Crazy. I know we have tons of views but the fact that real people watch us hasn't really settled in," He said as we took our bags back to the car.

Gavin was on his phone, talking to his wife. As we sat in the back, listening to his conversation and waiting for the others to get back, we noticed how happy he sounded and I smiled. Gavin looked really tough and badass on the outside but in reality, he was just a dude calling his wife a ton of pet names.

True love.
