the tour was offically tomorrrow and emery was scared to say the least, she had always struggled with social anxiety so being around these crowds for the next month had bile rising in her throat, she had stayed at wilburs the entire week, his embrace calming her in the early hours of the morning when she struggled to sleep but now she had to leave, granted she was with him for the next month, this one day does not matter, she was fine. when emery returned home she quickly distracted herself by connecting her phone to her speakers and putting on her much loved playlist, noticing her apartment was a mess she quickly got to work clearning the floor of her wardrobe and washing dishes before moving on to packing, she had already helped wilbur with his due to his like of her fashion sense so hers shouldnt be difficult.

after leaving it till the last minute and stress packing, somehow managing to fit a months worth of clothing into 2 suitcases and leaving her apartment somewhat clean, she now stood infront of the van huddled with leandra attempting to light a cigarette in the wind, joe was strumming his guitar, ash was filming the group for his vlogs panning over to the girls as they just waved. wilbur walked up behind the girl placing his hands on her shoulder accidently scaring her, "jesus will" emery yelped "scared the shit outta me" the older man just laughed taking in her outfit a wahsed out red top and some low rise flared jeans paired with her signiture leather jacket and a matching pair of docs to his own,"ready to go" he asked enthusiastically "ready as ever" she replied looking him over, wearing his black hello madness jumper and black jeans she had helped him pick the night before, "like your outfit" she winked "thanks my personal designer chose it" he smiled " wow love her style" they both laughed. after the van was packed emery gathered her belongings waiting for the others to climb into the van before climbing in between wilbur and leandra.
after a short while everyone had settled in, wilbur was fiddling with the tvs which didnt work and ash had started filming again, everyone was preparing for the six hour drive they had ahead of them. an hour into the drive millie was lying on wilburs sholder watching him do his crosswords, ash and mark were playing mario cart and joe had fallen asleep, everything was seeminly fine until the road got unusally bumpy, sitting up from wilburs sholder, the crew had shortly relised they had a flat tire and needed to pull over, ash whipped out his phone pointing it on wilbur who had started to explain what was happening.
"you cant stay in your car on the hard sholder you have to get out and wait outside" ash pointed his phone at the grey clouds above as rain pattered on the window "so um tune back in in one moment to find out how were doing in the rain" wilbur finished, two minutes later the camera was back out as dave the tour manager stated it was burning, "we need to get out" wilbur ushered as they pulled over "out out, careful em" climbing out of the van and onto the side of the motorway, all 6 band members and crew were now huddled under the trees hopeing to stay out of the rain, wilbur continuing to explain to ashs phone what was happening, as dave called a rescue van to come and change the tire the girls turned to what they could most rely on, well until the wind stopped them from doing so, emery and leandra stood huddled under a tree whilst mark held up his jacket attempting to light 3 cigarettes not bothered about what the rest of the group were doing, after the group did what they could, calling for help and taking helpful smoke breaks, all they could do was wait, stupidly emery had left her coat in the van so she was clinging onto will huddled under his jacket in an attempt to keep warm, ash was still pulling his camera out every so often catching them in the back as he panned over the group. after an hour of waiting dave had managed to move the van forcing the group to walk in the rain until they met the rescue van.
an hour later and they were on the road again, this time emery and wilbur had decided to get some sleep, em slumped against the window legs hanging over wilburs as he lay on her, at some point her hands found themselves interwined in his hair, ash paused his game of monoply with the group snaping a picture.
