Blackmailed Into The Band

Danger Corrals

" Day two," I said, filming on my camera. " 4/5 of the band are asleep."

I turned the camera to show them laying in weird positions. Before we all went to sleep, Gavin helped us put the seats down so we'd have more space, leaving one row of seats up so someone could take that spot. It was Josh.

Phillip and Carter were sleeping together, not really intimately, just laying side by side, facing each other.

Aidan was snoring by their feet, and I had taken the very back, which was the coldest place in the van.

I zoomed in on the guys' faces, laughing when Phillip sat up and covered his face awkwardly.

" My hair is a mess and you're recording," He said, keeping his face covered.

" Whoops, that's what you get for sleeping," I said, facing the camera towards me again. " I wonder if we're still in Georgia. Probably not," I said, pointing the camera out of the window, catching the snow falling and hoping to see a sign.

Josh sat up and shivered, wrapping his blanket around himself. " Why is it so cold?" He quivered, rubbing his eyes before realizing I was recording. " Oh my gosh! Stop!" He laughed groggily before retreating under his blanket.

Aidan groaned and threw his pillow at me. I stumbled back as Phillip laughed and Carter sneezed beside him.

" I hate my job," Gavin muttered.

Carter sat up and wrapped his arms around Phillip. I paused my vlog.

" Oh my gosh I thought you were 'Lexia!" Carter said, pushing Phillip away.

Nice try.

" I'm over here. Across the car. Miles away," I smirked.

" 'Lexia shut up. I forgot where I was sleeping," He laughed.

Aidan sat up and reached into his bag, pulling out a bag of chips he'd bought last night.

" Chips for breakfast?" Josh asked, pulling out his own bag of Cheetos.

" What else?" Aidan muttered as the car swerved.

Carter hit his head on the back of the seat.

" Hey Gavin, is everything okay?" Aidan asked.

" Sleepy..."

" Park somewhere and go to sleep, preferably a buffet parking lot or something."

" Sure thing, boss," Gavin said flatly.

He pulled into a Golden Corral and parked near the front.

" Go get dressed and eat something. Don't draw attention to yourselves. Stay together and keep your phones on," He said. " Don't leave the building and bring me back some... Toast."

We grabbed a small bag and shoved a change of clothes in before getting our money and leaving. We payed, found a table near the back and took turns going to the bathroom to change and get our food. This process alone took thirty minutes.

Once we ate, we overdosed on food. And Josh had a headache. He insisted we go with him across the road to get some Advil.

" But Gavin said to stay here," Phillip said.

" It's just across the road. I'll go by myself if no one wants to go with me," He said, clutching one side of his face.

" I'll go with you," Aidan groaned.

" It's snowing though. Be careful," I said.

They both nodded and left. Meanwhile Carter, Phillip and I went back to our dessert, eating cake and cotton candy.

Ten minutes later, we started getting worried. And then we decided to go look for them. As we walked out of Golden Corral, we saw Josh and Aidan waking Gavin up, telling him that we needed to leave.

We got into the van with no questions asked before we saw two men walking out of the pharmacy across the street and pointing at us.

" Can we go any faster?" Aidan pleaded.

" What did you two do?!" I asked as we left the parking lot.
