Chasing Stars (Daniel Seavey)

Queen Of Pranks

"Hey Jax!" Payton shakes Jax to wake up.. "Whaaaat?" Jax groans in her sleep. "Get up!" Payton shakes her again. Jax gets up and looks at the time. "Payton, its 2 in the morning...." Jax groans. "I know..I was gonna stop at Taco Bell...drive me?" Payton says. "I don't have a car stupid" Jax says in her pillow. "Driver is letting us borrow the car." Payton says. "Come on Jax! I've been up all night and I haven't heard from Daniel and I'm hungry..." Payton explains. "Fine. I'll be ready in like 10 minutes." Jax groans and gets up. Payton constantly checks her phone. She checks Daniel's Twitter and he hasn't posted anything since he left.

"Whatcha want?" Jax pulls up to the drive through. "Just a beef taco and water." Payton says. "That it?" Jax asks. "Yep!" Payton smiles. Jax orders their food and they sit in the parking lot eating. "Any thing from Daniel?" Jax asks. "Nope." Payton looks at her phone. "He landed like an hour ago..." Payton says. After she said that, her phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and saw it was Daniel. "Oh god he's calling!" Payton says dropping her taco. "Answer it!" Jax laughs. "Danny?" Payton answers. "Miss you." Daniel says back. "Oh my gosh Daniel I got worried a little." Payton laughs. "Sorry, I had to do an interview." Daniel says. "It's ok, how's it like being back home?" Payton asks. "Man I missed it." Daniel laughs. "The worst part is that you're not here." Daniel laughs. "I miss you Danny." Payton tears up. "You don't know how much I miss you too." Daniel smiles. "Still wearing my hoodie?" Daniel asks. "Never took it off since you left." Payton laughs. "What about the bracelet I gave you?" Payton smiles. "I think of you every time I look at it. I'm gonna kiss it every night and think of you." Daniel says and Payton blushes. "Stopppp." Payton blushes. "It's the truth." Daniel smiles. "I love you Danny." Payton smiles into the phone. "I love you too twizzler." Daniel says back. "Hey I need to get going, I'll facetime you tomorrow alright?" Daniel says. "Alright. Goodnight." Payton smiles. "Goodnight." Daniel says back and hangs up. "Jax?" Payton puts her phone down. "Yea?" Jax looks at Payton. "Have you ever loved someone so much that you just beat yourself down because you love them and you can't be without them?" Payton asks. "That's how I am everyday with Riley man." Jax laughs. "Next couple of weeks are gonna be hard." Payton says. "I know it will. But he's happy right?" Jax smiles. "Yea he is." Payton smiles. "I'm just glad he's happy." Payton says. "That's great. Plus, you have to try and not have this affect your performances now." Jax says. "How do you do it? When Riley left, how do you be so strong but your heartbroken inside." Payton asks. "It's what professionals do. You try to get all the feelings out of your head. And plus it brings more emotion to a performance.." Jax explains. "I wanna do an emotional song this week then..it will be professional right?" Payton asks. "If you make it emotional.." Jax smiles. "Thanks Jax." Payton smiles and hugs Jax. "No problem. Wanna head back?" Jax asks. "Sure lets go. I need sleep anyway." Payton says. They drive back to the hotel and Payton tries to sleep. She eventually fell asleep but only for 5 hours

Payton hears her phone ring but she ignores it. It rings again and she groans. She turns over and looks at her phone to see who's calling. She sees its Nick and rolls her eyes and smiles. "Sup Fradiani?" Payton answers. "Hey! Where are you?" Nick asks. "At the hotel room. I just woke up." Payton laughs. "Well we have to go to studio in about 2 hours. Do you and Jax want to come to breakfast with me and Tyanna?" Nick asks. "Sure! I'll wake her up and we will be down in like 20 minutes alright?" Payton says. "Alright cool, we'll be here in the lobby." Nick says and hangs up. Payton hangs up and looks over at Jax sleeping. Payton smirks and gets up off of her bed. She walks over to her luggage. She pulls out an air horn and walks over to the side of Jax's bed. She positions the air horn and she presses the button causing the air horn to make a loud noise waking up Jax. Jax gasps and falls off her bed. "Ow!" Jax whines. She looks up and sees Payton standing in front of her with the air horn and her phone recording. "Honestly....that was not funny." Jax lays whines. "Haha I love you." Payton laughs and turns off her phone. "Where did you get...an air horn?" Jax laughs standing up. "Danny have it to me for my birthday!" Payton laughs. "Well...I'll make sure to tell him thank you. For busting my ear drum." Jax says. "Hey, Nick called asking if we want to go to breakfast with him and Tyanna." Payton says putting her air horn away. "Yea I'm down. When?" Jax sits on her bed. "15 minutes." Payton says. "Alright I'll be ready." Jax says walking to the bathroom. Payton gets dressed in under 5 minutes and she waits for Jax. She checks her Twitter and looks through her mentions. "Missing her. ❤️" Daniel captioned with a pic of him and Payton. She smiles and Daniel calls her for a FaceTime. "Dannyy!" Payton answers and smiles. "Hey! What's up?" Daniel smiles. "Well, Jax Nick Tyanna and I are gonna go out for breakfast so I'm waiting for Jax right now." Payton laughs. "Cool! What are plans for today?" Daniel smiles. "Well we have recording today and then some rehearsals on Monday we are gonna meet our mentors." Payton answers. "Awesome! Whatcha singing?" Daniel asks. "That..I'm not telling." Payton laughs. "Oh come on!!" Daniel whines. "Sorry Danny, you'll have to wait." Payton laughs. "Finnnnee." Daniel whines again. "Oh, I told you that air horn would be in good use." Daniel laughs. "Oh yea!!!! You saw the video!" Payton smiles. "Yea...promise me you'll use it a lot." Daniel smiles. "Oh don't worry. I will." Payton laughs. "We are Queen and king of pranks." Payton smiles. "Yea, make sure to think of me though." Daniel says. "I think of you everytime." Payton says. "I miss you." Daniel smiles. "I miss you more." Payton says. "Hey I'm gonna get going now, I'll talk to you tomorrow." Payton smiles. "Alright. I love you." Daniel smiles. "I love you too." Payton says kissing the camera. They hang up the phone and Payton gets up. "Ready?" Jax walks out. "Yep!" Payton smiles and grabs her air horn. "What do you need that for?" Jax asks. "You'll see." Payton says and puts it in her back pocket. "Let's go." Payton says grabbing her phone and heading to the door followed by Jax. They go to the elevators and head to the lobby. "Alright, follow me." Payton says to Jax spotting Tyanna and Nick. They walk around and stop behind them. "Alright, film this." Payton gives Jax her phone. Jax laughs and takes the phone. She opens the camera and starts recording. "Alright so Nick and Tyanna are right over there..." Payton says to the camera and points to where nick and Tyanna are. "And I'm gonna give them a little surprise.." Payton smirks pulling out the air horn. "Ok, stay here." Payton says to Jax and she walks over to Tyanna and Nick are. Jax points the camera to the two and gets Payton sneaking up behind them. Payton looks back to see Jax still recording and Jax laughs and nods. Payton points the air horn between nick and Tyanna and she sets it off right in their ears. Tyanna screams and nick run away. Jax and Payton laugh and Jax stops recording and she walks over to Payton. "what...was that?!" Tyanna puts her hand over her heart. "Air horn." Payton answers and blows it in Tyanna's face. "Ok..please don't do that again." Tyanna laughs. "NIIICCCKKK!" Payton laughs over at nick. "That was not cool." Nick walks over to the girls. "Actually..it was." Jax laughs and show him the video. "Better not post it." Nick says. "Too late." Payton smiles. "Alright I'm taking that away for today." Nick grabs the air horn from Payton. "You're kidding right?" Payton laughs. "Nope." Nick quickly sets off the horn in Payton's face. "Fine grandpa." Payton rolls her eyes and turns away. Everyone laughs and then they head to breakfast.

"Hey Danny!" Payton answers the FaceTime call. "Hey!! What's up?" Daniel smiles. "We are in the studio and I'm about to record." Payton says. "Do I get to here you?" Daniel gives her the puppy eyes. "I told you I'm not." Payton laughs. "why do you do this to me?!?!" Daniel whines. "Sorry danny." Payton laughs. "Haha. Hey, I liked the prank you did on Nick and Tyanna." Daniel says. "Oh haha." Payton laughs. "Yea uhh...Nick actually took it from me." Payton laughs. "No way!" Daniel laughs. "Way!!" Payton smiles. "Are you getting it back?" Daniel asks. "Probably." Payton laughs. "I wanna prank someone during the show by the way." Payton says. "You can do that?!" Daniel laughs. "I talked to someone and everyone thinks that would be funny." Payton says. "How about Ryan?" Daniel suggests. "Yes!!" Payton says and smiles. "I'll have to plan something. Thanks Danny." Payton smiles. "I'm here anytime." Daniel smiles back. "I'm glad. Hey, I got to get going." Payton says looking at Jax who just finished. "All right have fun. I'll talk to you later." Daniel smiles. "Alright bye Danny! I love you!" Payton smiles. "I love you too." Daniel smiles back and hangs up. "Hey! You're up." Jax smiles. "Cool. Thanks." Payton stands up. "You sounded great in there!" Payton smiles. "Aww thank you!" Jax gushes.
Payton went in and started recording her song. In the middle of her recording...Nick and Qaasim snuck up behind her and blew the air horn. Payton jumped and hit her head on the mic. "Haha very funny." Payton laughs. "Karrrrmmaa." Nick teases waving the air horn in her face. "What's up with this thing anyway?" Qaasim laughs. "Nothing special. Daniel gave that to me for my birthday just to mess around with." Payton laughs. "How are you guys doing?" Nick asks. "Never would've been better." Payton smiles. "He's happy. So I'm happy." Payton says. "That's nice." Qaawim smiles. "Thanks. Now get outta here naked brother." Payton laughs pushing Qaasim out of the booth and Qaasim laughs. "How you and your girlfriend doing?" Payton asks nick. "We're doing ok." Nick shrugs. "Just ok?" Payton asks concerned. "Yea I mean I'm gone for a while and I'm busy and stuff." Nick says. "Anything else?" Payton raises her eyebrows. "There's just this one thing but it doesn't matter." Nick says. "Talk to me Fradiani." Payton sits down next to her mic. "You see, she's just kind of like the jealous type. So you know all the screaming girls and JLo saying I'm hot." Nick explains. "Ah I see. She's just insecure about you and you being gone a lot." Payton says. "Exactly. She doesn't trust me and I'm trying to you know tell her that I'm just focusing on the competition and all this other stuff." Nick explains. "I understand what you're saying. Just give her some time. And maybe send her something special to let her know that you still love her." Payton tells Nick. "That's not a bad idea Pay. Thanks!" Nick smiles. "No problem. Now..get out here grandpa." Payton laughs. She takes the air horn out of Nick's hand and blows it in his face chasing him out of the booth. "K. Sorry about that." Payton laughs and turns to the music producer and she continues with her song.
