The guys finished their sound check. I felt myself being picked up by Austin.

"Carlile!" I screamed.

"What? I can't pick you up?"

"Without warning, no."

"I sowwy." he smiled.

"Sure, whatever." I went to Dad, he was talking on the phone.

"Jason, chill out. Just talk to her for me, please." he sighed and he kissed my head while I listened to Jason talk to him.

"Thank you, Jason. Do you want to talk to your niece?" he must have said "Yes" because I was handed the phone.

"Hey, Uncle Jason!"

"Hey, sweetie. How are you holding up?"

"Pretty good, how about you?"

"About the same."

"I'm bored and Austin keeps scaring me by picking me up without notice."

"I can't do anything about that, darling. I can't wait until tomorrow, you guys are having a break and that means that I get to see you again." I laughed at him.

"I'll see you then. Love you."

"Love you too, Tyler. Give the phone back to Mike please." I handed Dad the phone and skipped to Chester.

"What's up, baby girl?" he asked.

"Nothing much. Just got off the phone with Uncle Jason."

"Oh really? What did he say?"

"The usual." I shrugged. 

We sat on the couch and watched a movie that was on. I put on my headphones and put my songs in the shuffle. The first song was Slip Out the Back.

Chester took out my earbud so he could talk to me.

"We are going on stage now." I nodded and followed him to the side stage.

Like last time, I sang a couple of songs with them.

I got off stage with the band and we went back on the bus.

"Hey, kid. Tomorrow we are going home for a break." Dad told me.

"Yes!" I fist-bumped the air.
