St. Louis
November 6, 2000

"Yeah I'm from NY, so I can relate to that typa shit" 50 says to me making me giggle. We're talking about our childhoods and somehow landed on how scary growing up was in our hometowns.

"We will be at the hotel in about 5 minutes" Paul shouts from the front of the bus.

"Thank god man, I gotta take a shit" Biz says from across from me making us all laugh.

"That's just nasty man" Marshall smirks.
Marshall and I somewhat made up from
our last argument. We never actually had a conversation and apologized but we just subconsciously knew we were fine after a few days.

"So Rachel, are ya staying till December?" Proof ask me. I look up at him and all eyes are on me making me feel a little uncomfortable.

"Uh, I don't know yet... I guess it depends on how good these next 2-3 weeks are" I say. I honestly was originally planning on going back home the last week of November because this tour has been so drama filled and exhausting.

"What? Nah girl you gotta stay until the end" 50 says looking at me. Marshall glares at him quickly.

"You guys are amazing but I miss home" I say seriously.

"You gotta a man waitin for you back home?" 50 asks me.

"I- no, not really" I say looking at him. I couldn't help but to think about how Marshall is the man waiting for me.

"Not really?" 50 laughs.

"Well there's a guy that wants to be with me but he can't seem to be loyal to me" I say bluntly. I glance at Marshall whose already got his eyes on me.

"I'm sure this guy probably really likes you but maybe he needs time to figure out his life or something" Marshall speaks up. I roll my eyes knowing he's talking about himself.

"I don't know he seems to have his life together, he just can't seem to understand that I won't be a side piece" I say beginning to sound annoyed. I look over to the guys to see them looking wide eyed as they look back and forth between Marshall and I.

"Uhhh...are we interrupting something?" Proof says making me crack a smile.

————————————————————

Molly and I stumble into my hotel room at about 1 am. I'm extremely tired from the show so I skipped out on the after party so Molly and I decided to have a girls night.

"I'm def staying here tonight if that's okay" Molly says as she crashes in the other bed.

"Bitch that's fine" I giggle. I begin taking off any leftover makeup and changing in something a bit more comfortable.

"So I gotta ask, what's up with you and Marshall?" Molly speaks up as she takes some baby wipes to remove her own makeup.

"So I don't know if you've heard anything about our past but Marshall and I kinda dated in '95" I say looking at her as she gives a nod.
"We basically ended our friendship or whatever you wanna call it because he told me about his ex being pregnant with his child" I say thinking about that exact night. That night still makes me sick.

"Oh shit" Molly reacts.

"So literally this year we started being friends again and that's how I ended up being on this tour" I say looking over at her.

"Damn, I didn't know you guys had a past" She says laughing.

"Yeah I-" I say before getting interrupted by a loud knock on my hotel door. It actually sounds like multiple people knocking on it. I give Molly a confused look before answering it.

I open the door to Proof, Biz, 50 and of course Marshall.
"Y'all just gonna ditch us at the after party" Marshall says jokingly. They all crowded in my small room and land on the beds.

"Woah Biz, you can't be jumping on the bed like that" Proof jokes making us burst into laughter.

"Why are you guys here? Where's the rest of the crew?" Molly asks.

"Man the after party is lame tonight so we ditched that shit" Marshall says looking over to me.

"Yo I didn't know y'all shared a room" Marshall says laying down next to me.

"Yeah the fuck are y'all doing up in here?" 50 says jokingly.

"We don't share a room, we just wanted a peaceful girls night but that's not gonna happen anymore" I say looking at the guys.

"Okay then let's play truth or dare" Biz says sounding like a girl making us all laugh.

"Oh my god stop" Molly says laughing.

"No for real though, Rachel you first" Biz says.

"What? Oh uhh dare" I say nervously. These guys are ruthless when it comes to these types of games.

"I dare you to kiss the most attractive person in this room" Biz says making everyone else gasp and laugh.

I smirk as I look around examining everyone. Everyone has there eyes on me. I can't kiss 50 because Marshall will go bat shit crazy and I can't kiss Marshall cause I like what we have going. I turn to Molly and smirk.

"Molly come here" I say making the guys go crazy.

"Good fuckin question Biz" Proof says jokingly.

Molly giggles as we lean into each other and give a quick peck.

"Oh shit" I hear Marshall say.

"Okay who's next" I say laughing.

"Marshall, now you kiss the most attractive person in the room" Proof says knowing exactly what he's doing.

Marshall looks over to Molly then me. Is he going to kiss Molly? In front of me? I swear I will literally kill this man right here and right now if he does.

Marshall leans over to me pulling me closer by my neck and smashes his lips into mine. We haven't kissed in weeks, possibly even a few months and actually felt a spark.
Remembering that there's people literally watching us I pull back slowly still looking into his eyes.

"Damnnn" Biz and Proof say at the same time.

I laugh and look back at Marshall whose got a sly smirk on his lips. I now look at 50 who looks like he's hiding some type of disappointment.
