Ali walked with me to the bus and when we walked in, Kuza was on the couch surrounded by the guys who all stopped talking the second we walked in.
Kuza stared at us and we quickly walked past to the bunks.
JJ walked back and said, “Persephone are you really going to-” “OH MY FUCKING GOD!” Ali practically screamed. JJ and I looked at her and her face went red. “Sorry, I just- oh my god,” she mumbled. I giggled. “Ali, this is JJ. JJ, this is Ali.” JJ blushed and said, “Hello there.” Ali just stared at him wide eyed for a moment before snapping out of it. “Hi,” she said quietly.
I looked at her and said she was trying her hardest not to fangirl over him.
“Please tell me you aren't really going,” JJ whined. “I am. I don't want to be around Kuza,” I said as I grabbed my bags. “But Seph, come on,” he said. I looked at him and saw him pouting. “You can come and see me when you're not on stage,” I said.
I gave him a tight hug and walked towards the front of the bus, thinking Ali was following me.
“I LOVE YOU JJ!” I heard. I turned around and saw Ali running straight for me. Taking my hand she pulled me off the bus and ran towards Motionless In White's bus. “What the fuck did you just yell that for?” I laughed. “I DON'T KNOW BUT I CAN'T EVER LOOK AT HIM AGAIN NOW!” she groaned. We got to their bus and she pulled the door open and walked inside.
I saw Balz smile when he saw me.
“Hey,” he said. “Hey,” I smiled back. Ali led me to her bunk and said, “You can put your bags here and then we can go socialize.” I set my bags down and she led me out to where Balz, Ricky, Ryan, Ghost, Chris, and Angelo all were. She plopped down next to Angelo who smirked and messed up her hair. “Hey there little sis,” he said. “Ange! Stop it!” She complained as she moved away from him. The guys chuckled and I sat next to Balz.
The rest of the day went good.
Ali and I did the merch like usual, and when the guys got offstage, Balz asked if I wanted to go grab something to eat before bus call. I nodded and Ali gave me a thumbs up as I walked towards Balz.
We walked to a little cafe and Balz took my hand, making me blush slightly.
Sitting down, I ordered wings and Balz grinned. “I have to tell Chris we have a new addition to the wings club.” I giggled and he looked down smiling. His phone went off and he looked at the screen and then frowned. Without replying, he put it back in his pocket. “Everything ok?” I asked. “Um, yeah. Just got some bad advice is all,” he said, playing with the straw wrapper. “About what? Maybe I could help,” I smiled. “It's nothing really,” he said. Looking up he changed the subject. “So how do you get your hair so white?” he asked. I giggled and said, “That's a secret.”
After we ate, Balz took my hand again and led me outside. “Wait!” he said suddenly. I stopped, “What?” I asked. “Want a piggy back ride?” he asked with a smile. “HELL YES!” I said excitedly. I crawled onto his back and he gave me a piggy back ride all the way back to the bus.
We stood outside the bus a moment so I could climb down and he smiled down at me.
“What?” I asked. “Nothing,” he said looking away. He opened the door for me and I walked in, going straight to the bunk I shared with Ali. She grinned, “How'd it go?” I shrugged, “We ate and he gave me a piggy back ride back here.” “Ohhhh,” she said with a smile. “What are you smiling about?” I asked. “Oh nothing,” she said as she turned on her side.
I closed my eyes and let sleep take over me.
