Dreams Come True (Austin Carlile/Ben Bruce)

Chapter 25

He came out wearing a The Doors shirt, black jeans, and a black beanie. I smiled as I looked at him, "Did you do that on purpose?" I teased. I was wearing my old The Doors tank, that my dad gave me, and grey skinny jeans and a white beanie. My hair was a messy wave down my back.

"I just grabbed, sorry" he shyly smiled.

I giggled, "it's okay. But we are going to be left behind if we don't leave now."

I grabbed my suitcase and purse and followed Ben as we went to the AA bus. I put my stuff under Ben's bunk and chose the one right above him.

Sam and James were across from us, and Danny and Cam were beside us. The merch girls, interviewer, and photographer filled up the remaining four bunks.

Danny popped his head out of his bunk, which was on the top like mine, "Randi, are we going to party on this bus?"

"Party how?" I smiled, and hoped he'd say something like watch Harry Potter.

"We can watch Harry Potter." He smiled, and I relaxed a little. Ben groaned underneath me. "But with a twist," Danny continued, and then held out a sack of pot. "It's a pound. It's a pound of pot."

I laughed, "Let's do this Danny!" I jumped down and smacked Ben's butt hard. "Come on Benny-boy, we've got four hours let's do this right!"

He got up and wrapped his arms around my waist, carrying me to the back living room area. He sat me down in the couch, his arm wrapped around my shoulder. I snuggled into his chest wrapping my arm around his stomach.

"You're awfully cuddly today." Ben squeezed my shoulder, "Don't think I'm complaining, but it's different."

I smiled, "I just realised what's better for me." I sat up when Danny handed me the bong, "Do you do this the correct way?"

He looked at me quizzically. I grabbed a nugg out of the bag set it in the pipe and smoked the entire thing until it popped.

I smiled with success, glad that I didn't mess up in front of them. "Boom. It hits you harder, faster."

Ben took the bong from me, "Well we've been doing this longer, this will be easy." He copied me, after the pop, he looked up at me with a small cough, "see easy-peasy."

I laughed as Danny took the bong and repeated. He separated his face from the bong smiling with accomplishment. "That's magnificent."

We did this three times each, then sat back and watched Harry Potter And the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Ben kept zoning out asking if we had talked about sky-diving yet. We never talked about sky-diving fully, only when he asked about it. Danny and I quoted the two Harry Potter movies we went through perfectly. Laughing hard when Sam walked in telling us we were an hour away from our camp ground and that we should get ready for the meet and greet.

"Randi, you're supposed to take pictures of OM&M and their fans." Sam nodded at me.

I got up and went to my suitcase, I pulled out the OM&M shirt that I got the night we met. It had all of their names scribbled on it, I grazed my finger over Austin's name. ~Randi stop! You need to think this through, Ben has showed you multiple times how caring he is! Austin hurt you!~ I quivered at the words that flustered through my mind. I sat on Ben's bunk. My high was slowly fading away. I stepped into the restroom, showered quickly, and slipped into my Red skinny jeans, black OM&M Toms, and my OM&M shirt. I stepped out of the restroom to see Ben waiting outside of it.

"Hey, sorry." He made room for me to slide past Him. "Randi, are you going to be staying with us for the rest of the tour?"

I stopped as we traded places, him in the bathroom and me leaning against the doorframe. "I might, if you don't mind. I mean my initial plan was to stay here to give Austin and Ella space. But I really enjoy you guys, so I mean if you'll let me stay?" I smiled at him.
