Normally when someone runs away from their problems, they are not looking for new ones. That is usually the mindset. Never did Sabian think that accepting new friendships would do exactly that.

Is that an arm? Maybe a leg? Slowly I opened my eyes and met with the big red numbers, that now read 6:16AM. Sitting up slightly, I noticed that it was in fact an arm that was draped over me, following it I saw that it was attached to Darrell. Remembering him coming back to the room and flopping into the closest bed from the door. Oh man, the torture this man brought on. Trouble, that is what he will be. Even though I did not want to, I slowly rolled out from his arm and sat up. I needed a shower desperately. Instead of a carpet floor, my foot was met with a squishy figure. "Ow, wait I am down here," a voice coming from the floor, causing me to jump back a little bit on the bed, allowing me to back into Darrell's sleeping form. Darrell stirred a bit but didn't wake up. I dared to look down only to be met with a groggy Grady, poor guy was looking rough.
"Why are you on the floor Grady?" dared to ask while I tried collecting clean clothes. Figured I'd get that shower in before the rest woke up which is not long from now. Grady sat up to rub his eyes before placing his glasses back on, "Phil apparently wanted to crash with us and ended up hogging the bed along with Rex," he explained when noticed what I was doing. "Oh yeah good idea, take a shower. I will get these kids up," He waved me off towards the bathroom. Knowing that we had to be downstairs by 7:30AM, I needed to hurry and get in and out so that the guys could freshen up themselves. Never can be sure when the next shower will be. I could begin to hear the guys moving about by the time I was stepping out. Luckily, I got the towel wrapped around me in time before the door busted open from Phil. "Phil, I said wait!" Grady shouted. I am almost positive that my face was matching that to Phil's shocked expression at this very moment.
"Dude what the hell! Give Sable some privacy!" Darrell ran up with Grady following close behind. Now this is just embarrassing because I am still standing here in nothing but a towel. Phil smirked at me, but Darrell began to shove his singer from the doorframe, he was not happy with Phil. Grady was displeased as well. The door quickly closed just as it was opened, what had I just witnessed? At this moment, I was very thankful for Darrell and Grady. Having someone watch over me like that was not something I was ever use to, in fact it was foreign to me. I hurried and got changed before making my way back into the room. Both Rex and Phil rushing past for their chance with the bathroom.
We eventually were able to get packed up and started making our way towards the elevators when Grady went over the schedule for today. Supposedly there was breakfast for the bands and crew waiting for us downstairs. I am taking advantage of that. The goal in mind was for us to get on the road as soon as possible since we had a bit of a drive for us. I was listening to Grady and Darrell talk when I looked over my shoulder, seeing Phil and Rex slowly catching up. When Phil's eyes caught my own, he winked at me but continued his conversation with Rex. My cheeks heated up not from flirtation but from embarrassment, this man almost saw me completely naked. Now Jefferey's words of no special treatment were hitting harder for me than it did yesterday. This was the harsh reality of this tour. I was about to see more than what I bargained for, vice versa.
