The party was an amazing way to kick off tour. Ben and Danny got incredibly drunk and ended up "twerking" if you will on each other. Lissa fell asleep on Ronnie, Josh, Chris and Max fell asleep in a heap outside of Asking's bus. Levi Benton, managed to spin around to the point where he actually fell over and vomited on poor Tay Jardine. Me being the nice person I am, helped her clean it off her to the best of our ability. Dylan, Patty, Ronnie and I sat on the sofa watching everyone getting drunk and having a good time, we occasionally got up and danced if there was good music playing. Derek and Katy disappeared half way through to go to a late night screening of a movie Katy had desperately wanted to see. Ryan was pouting as Becky decided to drink with Ben and Danny before he came and sat with us on the couch.

"Alex," He whined putting his head on my shoulder.

"Ryan?" I said mimicking his tone.

"Becky, left me for Ben. She hates me. She's going to actually leave me isn't she?" Ryan slurred. I knew he wasn't drunk, drunk but he was tipsy and tired. They both didn't work well for the poor guy.

"Ryan, Becky loves you. She's just mad at you for not packing the wrong thing. You need to pay more attention to what she says and she won't be mad. Go and buy her flowers and chocolate tomorrow and everything will work out. Oh and shampoo," I hugged Ryan to me and rubbed his head.

"Promise?" He asked. It is literally like talking to a child.

"Promise, let's take you back to the bus to lie down, hmm?" I asked. He nodded.

"I'll take him, Alex," Dylan said before wrapping Ryan's arm around his shoulder. I smiled at him in thanks.

Not long after he left, his seat was occupied by Chris. Whereas Ricky being the freak he is decided to sit on my lap.

"Hello," He said grinning at me.

"Who gave you Rockstar?" I asked him.

He giggled. Ricky Olson actually giggled. "NICK!" I shook my head before he bounded off yelling for his poor band mate Josh, "BALZ I NEED MORE ROCKSTAR!"

I shook my head.

"I'd best go check on him, with Ricky it's not alcohol, it's energy drinks," Chris shook his head laughing. "BTW you did great today."

"Thanks," I said before he ran off looking for his hyperactive band mate. Too much energy for such a small dude.

I caught up with a few of my other friends in other bands before we decided it would be a good time to get everyone back to the bus. Dylan grabbed Nick and Patty grabbed Joel. Ronnie grabbed a slightly drunk Becky, she might have overdone it on the Jack Daniels. Lissa wasn't too drunk but Ronnie held her arm to stop her from tumbling over and hurting herself. It was down to me to grab my husband. Great.

About an hour before we decided to go Jacky came and sat on the floor leaning on my legs. My first task was to actually get him off the floor.

"Come on Jacky, time to go," I said reaching my hand out to him.

"The floors comfy," He said.

"But you could sit on our floor, back at the bus. Come on baby, get up," I said.

"Ok, I love you," He said. I smiled before putting my arms under his and helping him up from the floor.

We walked off the bus before he wrapped his arms around my waist, which made it incredibly hard for me to walk. My husband drunk is impossible. He gets slightly clingy and tired, meaning I am walking him places.

He kissed my cheek as we finally got back to the bus. I got out of his grip and walked behind him.

"Careful of the step," I said as I placed my hand on his back and hip and guided him up.

"Alex, I really love you," He said.

"I know you do, because I love you too," I said as I helped him out of his jacket, shoes, jeans and shirt, leaving him in his boxers, before lying him down on the bed and switching on the TV in the room at a low volume. I picked my bed shorts and one of Jacky's shirts from the chair in the room and going to the bathroom. I got changed and went and got a cup of water for Jacky and placing it next to his side of the bed. I grabbed a bottle of water for, Becky, Lissa, Ryan, Joel, and Nick and ran up the stairs to the bunk area and handed them to Ronnie, Dylan and Patty.

"Are Derek and Katy back?" I asked.

"Yeah, they're in there," Ronnie said pointing at the door leading to the upper back lounge.

I walked in to find Katy hugging Derek watching the Frozen disk that belonged to my daughter.

"Hey Alex come on in," Derek said.

"Are you ok?" I asked.

"Yeah we went to watch the film, went to a pizza takeout and brought it back here, we watched Harry Potter so we decided to watch Frozen as Derek hasn't seen it," Katy said smiling. I gasped.

"I didn't think it would be very good. But it's really good, now I understand what all the hype was about," He said. I laughed at him and nodded.

"Try telling Jacky that, he always falls asleep through it," I said.

Derek gasped, "How dare he? I will make him watch it."

"Good, congratulations by the way," I answered.

"Thanks," They said together.

"Well, I'm heading to bed to keep an eye on Jack, night you guys," I said as they both said goodnight to me and I headed back through the bunks and down the stairs into the front lounge to have a glass of water before heading to the bedroom. As soon as I lay down Jacky placed his arms around my waist and placed his head on my chest as we drifted off into a peaceful sleep­­­.

The Next Morning

_________________________________________________________________

I was awoken the next morning to someone rapidly knocking, hang on a minute make that banging on the door of the bus.

"ALEX," It was Lauren. Cass. Something's happened to Cass. If Eric or any of the guys from Blessthefall (as that is where she stayed last night) has given her 8 bars of chocolate again I will chop his balls off and feed them to piranhas. She was sick for 2 days the last time he did that.

"ALEXANDRA," Lauren yelled. I got out of bed and pulled on a hoodie, which was hanging on the back of the door. From the scent I could tell it was Jacky's.

I ran to the door and punched in the code to open it.

"Lauren it's 10:00am, what's happened? Why are you up so early and why do you look like you've been crying?" I asked becoming very concerned for the woman.

"I did a bad thing...."
