Knox was walking around the dorm, it was a free day. No recording in the studio, no practicing any choreography, and no work. It was a great free day though when he heard the bickering of three of the five others in the house.

"You're too young to watch this!" Nathan growled toward the youngest of their group.

"How?" Jules mumbled, and Knox could practically see the younger throwing her arms across her chest in a pout. "All she does is cuss and Ryan cusses more than she does on a daily basis. Unlike him she's actively trying to stop."

"She's got a point." Zack chuckled slowly, earning a sigh from Nathan.

"Fine, fine." Nathan groaned. "Go ahead and watch it."

Finally walking toward the living room to see Jules, Zack, and Nathan all gathered around watching what looked to be like a streaming video. The girl on screen was ranting on the tv screen and all three band mates had their eyes glued to the screen. He cocked a hip against the entry way that separated the living room and kitchen, arms crossed as he spoke.

"What are you guys watching?" His voice was quiet but it was enough to catch their attention and Jules turned around to face him with a grin on her face.

"She's a really pretty girl who does a lot of live streams. I found her channel a few months ago and got Nathan and Zack into it. She's pretty like I said but I really like what she talks about. Usually it's about her days or sometimes her favorite groups, which come to find out we're one of them. But anyway she's usually talking about some of the issues she faces as a person and what not." Jules explained, eyes shining bright in admiration before turning back to the screen as the women continued talking.

Nathan was next, turning to face Knox. "Right now she's talking about her soulmate. The rest of us think that she's got some idol who changes their hair color a lot or someone who's desperate enough to kill their hair."

"Yeah, it's interesting to listen to." Zack piped up, not bothering to look at his best friend. "You know I really don't watch videos like this but I've become invested in counting how many times her hair gets changed through the weeks and how she's gotten in trouble for them."

Knox raised an eyebrow. "Yeah?"

Zack chuckled. "Yeah, her craziest one yet was how she was at work and her hair changed mid shift."

Knox chuckled, shaking his head. He could care less about what happened to the girl but to see how his friends and brothers were so invested, he had to care about that at least. And that was how their conversation died down, the older one walking away from the trio before walking back in the kitchen to make himself a well deserved cup of coffee. His nights were getting rough with their new single coming out and the coffee was the only thing that battled his inner insomnia demon.
