When The Lights Go Down

Oh Canada, I will miss your food!

Bailey’s POV

The next morning I woke up late alone in my bed, my phone buzzing on the bedside table with an incoming text.

(Nick Text) starbucks? 

(Bailey text) YES 😃 surprise me , you know me

(Nick text) Ha! Ok…Livie?

*B walks into Nicks room and wakes Livie*

(Bailey) hey Nick is at Starbucks …you want anything?

(Olivia) no thanks…

(Bailey text) she doesn’t want anything

(Nick text) alright….be back in 10 minutes

(Bailey text) k

*B sits down on the bed next to Livie*

(Olivia) Nick told you

(Bailey) mmhmmm….how are you doin…are you freakin out?

(Olivia) I think I'm past the freaking out…I did that all day yesterday 

(Bailey) What did Josh say

(Olivia) he freaked out…told me to *air quotes* “Have it taken care of” and he would pay

(Bailey) WHAT!?

(Olivia) I politely told him to go fuck himself

(Bailey) good!

(Olivia) I thought your mom was going to have a heart attack though

(Bailey) OMG I forgot about Mom! Did she think it was Nick?

(Olivia) at first yea …I assured her it wasn’t the case and then she regained breathing

(Bailey) oh man I'm never admitting to my mom and dad that I've had sex…like ever…even when I’m married and have kids…I’m claiming immaculate conception…

(Olivia) HA! Maybe that’s what I should have done.

(Bailey) have you told your dad?

(Olivia) No, going to tell him in person, although being across the country when I tell him does have its appeal, is Nick mad at me?

(Bailey) no, why would Nick be mad?

(Olivia) *shrugs* breaking up with him…when he didn’t do anything

(Bailey) Nick understands, he isn’t mad

(Olivia) good, man timing with us sucks ass

(Bailey) amen! So do you know how far along you are? When will the peanut be arriving?

(Olivia) wont know till we get back home and I go to the doctors…

(Bailey) …its so weird thinking there is a human in there right now *looking down at Livies still flat tummy* you are like one giant easy bake oven right now *smiles*

*Livie bursts into giggles and Nick walks in his arms full of Starbucks *

(Nick) chai latte with caramel and some lemon pound cake

(Bailey) *claps excitedly* I love how you know me

(Nick) Yea well, the person at Starbucks looked at me like I was trying to off myself with sugar…

*B giggles*

-The Following Saturday Evening-

*B lays on Nicks bed waiting for him to get home from set*

Bailey’s Inner Monologue

This week has been insanity, thankfully it has flown by so quickly because tomorrow morning I get to see Sam *sigh*. I cannot wait to get reacquainted…his beautiful eyes…his smell…his lips UGH…just thinking about it makes me smile. It has been exactly one week today that Livie found out she was preggers, she has been handling it remarkably well. In fact she seems almost happier…like she now has this purpose in life or something. We will see how long the happiness lasts once she goes home tomorrow and has to tell her dad. Joe seems on the fence about going home, on one hand he is happy to be wrapping the movie today and heading home tomorrow to see V, but on the other hand he has sort of formed this close friendship with Demi…nothing romantic, not with V waiting at home, but also not saying he doesn’t wish it were more…again a brother with epic bad timing. He seemed pleased to find that in the weeks to come he would be seeing Demi more often to meet for promotional Camp Rock stuff. Nick has been on a sugar rollercoaster, He had maybe 4 days where he seemed to stay fairly even all day but the rest he has been a mess, maybe its stress, I dunno …one of the reasons I stayed back at the hotel today. I would hate for him to get grumptastic and for me to have to beat him in front of all his new Camp Rock friends on his last day. Then there was the fact that Mom decided to allow Livie and I to stay unsupervised so that she could be on set, the idea of being free to act all inappropriate and say “shit” or other highly illegal words as much as we wanted with zero consequences was way to tempting to pass up…course we did none of that because we are apparently “good kids” even when they aren’t around…well ya know minus the whole her being preggers thing…instead we shopped and consumed mass quantities of yummy food, mental postit…Canada makes food taste better...no matter what it is…its better. Oh Canada…how I will miss your food.

*B hears Nick's card fumble in his door and perks up, Nick walks in visibly grumpy with Mom quickly in tow looking mad*

(Nick) This isn’t fair!

(Mom) Oh really? Well, maybe you should have thought of that earlier

(Nick) It’s a CAST party…I'm part of the cast!

(Mom) No, it’s the AFTER cast party and you were lucky I even let you go to the cast party at all with your attitude.

(Nick) WHAT ATTITUDE? I only have this attitude because you are seriously pissing me off.

Bailey’s Inner Monologue

DANGER! DANGER! DANGER! ABORT! ABORT! STOP DROP AND ROLL!

(Mom) *THE tone* Watch it! This is NOT up for discussion…if you continue to argue it further you can deal with your Dad. I am done with the disrespect today Nicholas. You are not going. 

*Mom walks out letting the door slam behind her, Nick, in frustration, takes a swipe at a fruit basket from a fan , sending it flying off the table and spilling all over the room*

(Bailey) NICK!

(Nick) *startled* What?!

*B gets up giving Nick a glare and walks out slapping him upside the head on her way, Nick slams the adjoining door closed*

(Olivia) WOW…what the frick was THAT

(Bailey) no clue…he is obviously pissed…although not sure if it’s a sugar thing or just an actual mad thing stemmed from him not getting to do something because of a previous sugar related attitude toward Mom.

(Olivia) HUH?

(Bailey) *rolls eyes* there is a party of some sort and he can't go because apparently mom has had enough

(Olivia) ooooh a party…can we go?

(Bailey) *shrugs* dunno….*grabs her phone to text Joe*

(Bailey text) hey where r u?

(Joe text) Allison's suite…cast get together

(Bailey text) fun! Can I come?

(Joe text) sure…suite 702

(Bailey text) yay!

(Bailey) its in Allison’s suite…he says we can come

(Olivia) nice…lets go

*B and Livie head out stopping at Mom and Dads suite on the way*

*Mom answers still looking upset*

(Bailey) hey Joe texted me, said they were hanging out in Allison's suite and said we could go…is it ok?

(Mom) for a little bit…not too late I want you packed tonight we leave first thing in the morning.

(Bailey) ok *grabbing Livies hand and running down the hall*
