An Undead Surprise

Trouble At The Concert(27)

Riley woke up the next morning before eight. She laid beside her sleeping mother for a while until she got bored of doing nothing and got up. Eric, the bus driver, was already awake and driving to the next tour destination but she didn't want anything to do with him, she wanted to see her daddy. She wasn't sure where her daddy was sleeping, so she peeked behind the bunk curtains to find him. She found Dylan snoring and Jordon sleeping, but the other bunks were too high up for her to reach, so she decided to look in the bedroom. George was asleep on his back, snoring softly. She climbed onto the mattress, which took a lot of work since she's so short but it was all worth it when she saw George. When she got up on the mattress she crawled over the George and began to shake him aggressively.

"Daddy, wake up!" She bean to become frustrated that he wasn't waking up fast enough. "Daddy, I said wake up!"

Georges eyelids fluttered open from a dream and all he saw was his daughters bright blue eyes staring into his own.

"Morning Riley." He greeted in a sleepy voice. She smiled happily.

"I woke you up, daddy."

She was very proud of herself for being able to wake her father.

"Yes you did," he grinned. "Why'd you wake me up?"

"Cause I missed you."

George leaned forward and pecked her forehead, how could he be angry with a response like that?

"You're such a sweetheart, do you know that?"

Riley nodded her head with a smile that stretched across her face.

"Mommy says that too!"

He yawned loudly and stretched his arms over his head, "How about we get a little bit more sleep before everyone has to get up?"

"Okay."

George smiled and pulled the blankets back so that Riley could climb under the covers. She laid down and snuggled up against his chest.

"Love you daddy." She whispered then kissed his jaw before falling asleep next to him.

"You guys ready yet?" Both Reese and Devin asked, George waved them off as he searched for his shoes. Devin sighed and flipped him off. "They are gonna be be late and miss rehearsal."

"Relax babe, it's always stressful before a concert." Sid told her. "Just give them a few more minutes."

She nodded her head and relaxed against his chest.

"Hey Dev, can you open the door for Kat?" George nodded his head towards the door.

"Who's Kat?" Devin questioned curiously.

"She's one of Danny's old friends, she used to sell merch for his old band so we hired her on for the rest of this this tour."

With that she pulled herself from Sid and walked over to the door and opened it. When she looked down she saw a young girl, maybe around twenty two, smiling up at her.

"You must be Devin, Danny's told me so much about you. I'm Kat." She said walking up the steps then extending her hand out to Devin.

"Yes, I am." She said shaking her hand. Riley noticed the new girl and ran over to her mother and hugged her legs. "Oh and this is Riley, my daughter."
