Ryan, Ricky, Lauren and I had all been put in the bathtub. We were squished together and about to get soaked by Angelo and AvD who held water guns.
"Ryan, Ricky. I've only known you for nearly 2 months, but our time has been great. It was good meeting you. I love you, bros." I said dramatically, earning a few chuckles. "And Lauren, I only met you earlier but I'm glad I did. I don't think I would have made it up all those stairs if it wasn't for you."
"Aw, I'm touched." Lauren said as she pretended to wipe a tear.
"Time for Goodbyes are over." Chris said as he reached towards the taps on the edge of the bath.
....The taps which would turn the shower on....
"No!" We all yelled, only to get answered with a wicked smirk.
Suddenly the sound of a door being thrown open, and loud footsteps coming towards the bathroom made him stop.
"What the bloody hell is going on in here?" Josh, their tour manager fumed. "I've gotten so many sound complaints about you guys and- why are they in a bath?" He almost yelled.
"Uh..."
"Get them out right now! Then go back to your rooms and go to sleep. You have a show tomorrow so sort yourselves out. And I'll be taking those." Josh added as he snatched the water guns away.
We were saved.

I woke up the next morning - well, being dragged out of bed by the ankles by Lauren is a better description - and danced around listening to Ghost of the Robot. I was a huge Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan, and ever since I saw 'Once More With Feeling' I had looked up the songs and discovered one of the actors were in a band. I'd listened to the band since.
"I am a monkey behind glass!" I sung... badly which caused Lauren to burst out laughing.
"Turn on the lights and have a laugh!" Lauren joined in.
"Get up you filthy thing and- oh hey Chris how long have you been standing there?" I blushed furiously.
Lauren dove onto her bed laughing at how awkward the situation was.
"It's a no from me." Chris said in a stone cold voice like Simon Cowell. "And not long, thank God!"
"Shush you!" I mock glared at him. "And what do you want?"
"Well..." He began but paused as he turned the music down. "I was going to see if you wanted to come get some Starb-"
"Yes! Give me two seconds!" I blurted as I ran to my suitcase, grabbed a pile of clothes, then ran into the bathroom and shut the door.
Once I was dressed and brushed my teeth - morning breath no thak you- I came out and grabbed my shoes, hopping on the spot as I tried to get them on.
"You're in a cheerful mood." He smirked.
"I know, did they put something in the water in this place?" I made a face and they laughed.
"You wanna come?" Chris asked Lauren.
"Coffee. Ew. No." She gagged.
"Well the others were going to go to a cafe for breakfast soon-ish so we'll leave you with them." Chris told her and then turned to me. "Ready?"
"*Ready.*" I attempted to sound like Senior Pirelli from Sweeney Todd... but failed dramatically.
"I'm not even gonna ask." He shook his head.
