*Matt's Pov*
"They say stay in your lane boy lane boy we go where we want to!" I sang and danced as I fixed breakfast after we had parked.
I shook my butt to the beat of the radio and stopped abruptly when I heard laughter.
"How long have you been standing there?" I asked without turning around.
"Long enough to know you can't sing worth shit or dance worth shit." Sam replied.
"Bro how did you get in the bus?" I asked turning around.
"Uh I let him in 15 minutes ago." Another voice said from the kitchen and there sat Kalel, watching me with an amused grin.
"How....how long have you been there?" I asked her, my mouth wide open.
"Uh since you walked in ten minutes ago..." She said.
"Well...ok then." We all sat there awkwardly until we all started laughing.
"So where are we today?" Sam asked.
"Uh we've played all our Florida and Georgia shows also Alabama so uh Mississippi or something I'm not sure." I replied.
"We're in North Carolina you idiots." Zeke yelled walking in the bus.
"Where've you been?" I asked.
"You would know if you woke up before 10." He retorts.
"He went to look around some with Tyler and Josh." Kalel said to me.
"So where's everyone else?" Sam asked.
"Uh Sary Dash and Benji went for a run taking Rux so they could play with her. Tany and Benji went to see some family and uh the rest of the crew went for breakfast."
"Cougar and Shawn?" I asked.
Kalel face palmed and Sam began laughing.
"What?" I asked.
They both just looked at me strangely.
"Really guys come on tell me."
"Really guys tell me." I heard a voice mock me and I jump really high and turn to see Cougar and Shawn in the lounge area of the bus.
"You pay no attention to your surroundings do you?" Sam asked and I shrugged continuing to make breakfast.
While I did that the others talked and joked until the food was ready.
I walked with Kalel outside to see if we could see Scar and Dash or not. Dash wassitting on a bench not far away from the bus, watching Benji and Scar play soccer.
"Scar! Chow time!" I yelled running over to them.
She gave me a thumbs up.
"Thank goodness I'm starving." Dash said standing up and picking up Rux.
"I still can't believe you got her a dog." Kalel said shaking her head.
"Well she loves dogs so I figured why not." He shrugged.
"So uh 4 months for you guys yeah?" I asked him and he nodded.
"You only know that cause ours was yesterday." Kalel said.
Causing both of us to laugh.
Scar and Ben came over at this point and walked past us then started running for the bus.
"HEY YOU BETTER SAVE ME SOME FOOD!" I yelled chasing after them.
Kalel and Dadh walking in behind us laughing.
By the time they got in there wasn't any food left on the table.
Scar had up a plate for Dash and they went to the lounge to eat. I offered Kalel some food but she declined. I ate them asked her if she wanted to go look around for an hour or so. So off we went.
We were walking hand in hand down the road when she asked me something.
"How long do you think Scar and Dash are gonna last?" She asked me. I looked down at her puzzled.
"Why do you ask? I always thought they'd last forever together, I mean look at them."
She nodded.
"I mean yeah me too but love like that never lasts. At least not to the people who mean the most to you." She said looking down. Going into her shy side that'd I'd worked so hard to pull her out of.
"Hey, what's wrong? This isn't just about Scar and Dash is it?" I asked her tilting her head up to look at me.
"Me. Love just doesn't happen to me, guys don't like me especially not love me. So why do you treat me different? Like if anything you say will break me as if I'm made of glass? Why did you choose me?" She asked.
"I don't think people choose who they love it just happens,"
"So you wouldn't choose to love-" she interrupted me but I cut her off trying to finish.
"But I'm glad life threw you my way and I'd happily choose you over anyone every damn day til I die, because you are special and I love you Kalel." I finished.
A smile grew across her face despite the tears shining in her eyes.
She jumped in my arms and wrapped her arms around my neck and mumbled I love you too in my ear.
We stood hugging for a few minutes when someone spoke behind us.
"Aweeeeeee that was so cute!" Tany said.
"Excuse her sorry for ruining the moment you two." Stan said winking and pulling her with him and Connor down the road.
we both started laughing and walked back to the bus out of ideas of what to do.
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No for the last time no." We walked onto the bus to see Dash holding Scar in the air away from Cougar.
"Just let me hold her."
I watched Kalel pull her phone out and start videoing.
"Why me? What did I do to deserve this mistreatment?" Sary said making the rest of us laugh.
"What's going on?" I asked Benji and he shrugged.
"Scar made fun of Cougar for something and she hid behind Dash and Dash is protecting her as always."
He said to us.
"Fine have her."
"Wait what?!" Scar screamed and was thrown into Cougars arms who started tickling her.
"No stop no!" Scar screamed laughing.
Dash helped him pin down scar and tickle her. That lasted for 3 seconds before she started freaking out. She started screaming over and over.
They jumped off her and asked her what's wrong.
I opened the door a little and she jumped up and ran outside laughing.
She ran into the venue and we didn't see her anymore.
"Guys don't feel stupid she's done that since she was 10." I said and watched as they ran after her to mess with her.
Shawn followed slowly holding Rux close to his body cuddling her.
We all got our gear and Sarys together and went in the venue.
I helped Kalel and Sam set up then sat down outside the merch booth.
"MATT!" I heard and watched a red ball come flying to me. I had enough time to reach out and catch it before it hit me.
"Kickball?" Zeke asked.
"Kickball." I agreed.
"Same teams as usual!" Zeke yelled to everyone and we all went to our teams.
It was me Scar Josh Connor and Stan vs. Tany Zeke Tyler Sam and Will.
Everyone else didn't want to play so they watched and rooted us on.
"Ok so team name today is?" Scar asked.
"I say we go with uhhhh....." Connor began.
"Pie." Stan interrupted.
We all laughed until he explained.
"Because our win will be easy as pie." And we all agreed on pie.
"We have the names?" Tany yelled and we nodded.
"Benji is keeping score so what's your name?" She asked from her huddle.
"Pie...yours?"
"Pumpkins!" She said laughing.
"Because we are going to smash this." Everyone starting oohing.
"Ours is pie because our win will be as easy as pie." I said and they all pretended to die in fright.
"Guys how about give the fans some content and actually I don't know play?" Kalel yelled holding up the camera. She had been recording.
"Can't get much better content than this!" Connor yelled.
"Whys that?" She asked.
"Because I am one sexy mother fucker!" Will yelled and we all laughed then began to play.
...
"THAT SO DIDNT COUNT!" Tany yelled angrily as we won the game.
"How did it not count the ball was far and Will dropped it." I countered.
"He still caught it though!" She argued.
"Jesus you guys it's just a game!" Scar yelled at us and we both dropped it.
Literally in Tanys case because she dropped the kickball.
