Tour Bus Troublemaker// c.p.

•18•

I wake up to an annoying beeping of an alarm on Charlie's iPhone.

I groan and roll over in my tour bus bed, checking my phone for the time.
4:15 A.M.

Shit. I forgot today was the day we flew to Orlando for a show tonight. But I didn't know it would be this goddamn early.

I fumble for my clothes in the dark and eventually find some ripped skinny jeans to pair with a sequined tank top and some wedge heels. I head into the bathroom and see Bella getting ready in there already.

"Are you almost done?" I gripe instead of allowing her to take her time.

She shoots me an annoyed look, which pleases my cold heart.

"It's too early to fight," she mutters before pushing out the door past me.

I straighten my long-ish brown locks and apply some daily makeup. I then walk out of the bus to see Charlie and Bella having a seemingly intense conversation in the parking lot of an airport.

"Are we leaving soon?" I ask and Charlie nods to a private plane about 100 yards away.

"That's us," he says and I nod, still staring at him and Bella.

"So, are we going like, now?" I ask again and he throws his hands up.

"Yes, yes, we're leaving!" He exclaims in frustration before leading us to the plane.

We walk in to see a luxury interior: leather seats, gold accents, a full couch, a tv screen. I take everything in and nonchalantly sit down on the couch before taking out my phone. 5:25 A.M.

I sigh and begin to scroll through Instagram. A bunch of people had tagged me and mentioned me in comments about my performance last night. I actually loved it, I'd finally done something big for once.

I feel the plane start up underneath me and lean back on the couch. Bella and Charlie are getting cozy in some chairs across from me. I didn't blame them; it was about a 3 1/2 hour flight.

As soon as we took off and got into the air, I received a text. Luckily, this private jet had WiFi.
