Too Early For This

Meanwhile in London, Bruce was rudely awakened by a moaning Eric. "Aw hell no! It's six in the morning!"

He looked over at Paul who was still asleep. "Lucky!" He rolled out of bed and shuffled down the hall. "Gene! Eric! Shut up!" he cried as he knocked on their door.

"Sorry!" they called.

Bruce flipped them off through the door and went in search of coffee. "God, this is going to be a long tour!"

On the train, Pat woke up to a head on his chest. Tommy's long unruly curls were covering his shirt and chin. Pat ran his fingers through the tangled mop and gently pushed him back onto his pillow. He noticed Tommy looked a bit pale still.

Around eight, Pat shook Tommy awake to make sure he ate breakfast. He showed Tommy the message from Bruce as they sipped coffee. "Poor Bruce."

Tommy drank half his protein shake and ate a few eggs and a piece of toast. Pat made him try oatmeal.

"Do they have a shower?"

"Yes. Come on."

The train pulled into Minneapolis later so they got off for about an hour.
