Waking I sat yawning and looked around the bunk stretching and making a dinosaur like noise. I pulled the curtain up as I brushed through my wavy hair. Hoping down I noticed no one else awake yet as I wondered back into the lounge area. I noticed my guitar sitting in front of the couch and decided to play. I wake up early everyday so it was nothing new. I pulled my guitar from its case and started tuning. I played quietly and started humming and before long I was singing quietly to kissing in cars. I finished and started practicing a song I'm writing that has some pretty complicated chords.
I just wanted to be
the beautiful soul
you made me believe
I could beI sang quietly and then the dreaded happened my string snapped. I cursed and stared at it. I fumbled into the pouch of its case and pulled out an empty bag that used to contain spare strings. Cursing I removed the broken string and looked at the time. Maybe Tony or Vic has one I can borrow. As if he heard my thoughts Tony walked out from the bunks fully dressed.
. "Good morning little bird." He stated and passed me to go to the little kitchen area to make coffee. "Morning Tony, where did little bird come from? I think mike called me that last night." I asked. He turned back to face me and shrugged. "You share the same name as a bird and your little. Plus it's cute like you." He said simply and I smiled. "Hey uh I have a problem." I said remembering my broken string. He looked at me with concern but, relaxed when I gestured to my broken string. He smiled. "Oh sure I think we have some around here somewhere let me check my bag. " he walked past and back towards the back of the bus. I heard someone enter the lounge and looked up to see Mike enter looking like death warmed over. "Morning sleeping beauty." I teased knowing mike wouldn't think I was being rude. He ruffled my hair in response and passed me to go get some coffee I assume. I fixed my hair as Tony came back and tossed me a pack of strings. "Need help changing it?" He asked I just shook my head and got to work replacing it then tuning again.
"Ooh is bird gonna play for us?" Mike asked looking slightly more alive due to the monster in his hand. I looked as his drink. "If you give me your drink I'll think about it." I stated. He thought for a minute before handing me his drink and plopping down on the couch across from me. I sipped the drink and looked at the two ,rather excited, band members. "Any suggestions?" I asked sitting the drink on the floor. "Do you know kissing in cars?" I heard a sleepy voice ask and looked up to see Jaime plop down beside me. I smiled shyly, not mentioning I've already played it this morning I started the begging and started to sing. I smiled when Jaime looked at me shocked and the other two smiled.
Placing my guitar in my lap I smiled at the three boys earning claps from them. "They are gonna try to replace me if you keep singing better than me on my own songs." I heard Vic muttered and I smiled up at him. He smiled back and passed me to go to the kitchen. "You look too young to sing like that! How old are you?" Mike asked as I put away my guitar and snatched his/my drink. "Just turned fifteen." I said sipping the sugary drink. "Really? When's was your birthday?" Tony asked. I looked away with a blush. "Yesterday." "Why didn't you tell anyone?" Vic asked joining us in the lounge. I shrugged, "I don't usually celebrate it." Jaime gasped dramatically. "This is unacceptable! We are in the city for one more night so we must do something!"Jaime stated earning nods from everyone.
I simply shrugged and looked over to Vic. "Can uh you take me to see Kellin?" I blushed chewing on my lip all embarrassed. Since Kellin explained why he wanted me to stay I've been feeling myself trust him and Vic. It scares me that I'm trusting so easily. Vic smiled kindly. "Of course let me grab a jacket." I blushed realizing that I don't have a jacket since I gave Vic his back. I noticed Tony look at me curiously. I watched as he stood and pulled me up to follow him back towards the bunks. I followed curiously. He stopped at a bunk and pulled out a hoodie and handed it to me. "I don't remember you having one last night. I also noticed you were wearing Vic's when you came back so I wondered if you wanted to borrow my hoodie I have plenty of them I think I can spare this one until you get another." He said facing me. I smiled and shocked us both by wrapping my arms around him. I felt him hug me back. "Thank you Tony." "You're welcome bird."
Me and Vic stepped off the bus and I was instantly thankful for Tony's hoodie. I snuggled into it some. "Thank you for letting me stay with you." I said. "Your welcome bird. Everyone seems to like you, and with talent like yours you shouldn't be struggling to survive." Vic replied instantly. I smiled a little. "I hope I'm not too much of a burden on you guys." I replied still following him. He stopped abruptly and turned to face me. "You aren't a burden. I'm not sure who made you think you were in the past but, they were wrong. You are very sweet and frankly quite adorable. I would love for you to be like a little sister to me. Plus, if I thought you would be a burden I wouldn't have asked you to stay." He said his brown eyes watching my green ones. His brown curls hung from his beanie and brushed the top of his black hoodie. I smiled shyly and allowed him to hug me. I hugged him back and pulled away reluctant to lose this new found warmth. He slung his arm over my shoulders as we walked towards the sleeping with sirens tour buys.
Vic didn't even knock before letting himself on the bus and pulling me by my hand with him. I noticed the five members sitting around watching some movie or playing on their phones. I waved at Justin who smiled brightly at me. Kellin noticed and stepped forward and hugged me. "Good morning, Wren what's up?" He asked pulling away to face me. I shrugged a little. "I wanted to thank you before the PTV boys dragged me of somewhere." I said. He smiled, "you don't have to thank me. I'm very happy you decided to join us." He replied instantly and I smiled. He looked over my head to Vic. "What are you guys doing today?" He asked. "Well, first in taking little bird shopping then, the boys are planning a BBQ with all time low and mayday parade because Wren here failed to mention her birthday was yesterday." I turned to raise my eyebrow at Vic. He smiled at me and winked. Kellin looked at me with a smirk. "You should of told us." I shrugged and he turned back to Vic. "I'll see you guys tonight then. I have something to handle first." He smiled back at me and tossed Vic his wallet. "Don't let her pay for anything." He stated. "Wasn't planning on it." Vic replied. I poured a little earning a laugh from Kellin and a hug before we set off to go shopping.
