Falling Backwards

Another Cover Up?

Month: June

"Everyone up and at 'em this morning! We are in the beautiful Detroit Michigan and you all play your very first show here tonight!!" Mark yelled up and down the bunks. One by one opening curtains. "Rocky Mark, I said no girlfriends in the bunk past midnight." Rocky and Alyson were cuddled together in his bunk quite comfortably. "Hmmm" Alyson sighed, "I get cold Mark, sorry." He rolled his eyes at the two, "Oh reminds me too much of Stormie and I. Too cute."

A camera flashed, and Rocky fell out of his bunk with a crash, "Ugh!" He said, laying on the floor. "You okay babe?" She called to him, still laying in the bed. "Yeah..." He replied, sitting up. "Riker! Ratliff! Rydel! Up up up!" Mark walked off to the front with Ross and Ryland, who were up to brush their teeth.

Alyson got up and walked to Rydel's bunk, opening the curtain slightly, "Good morning Rydel- Ah!" Ratliff was laying there with his finger over his lips, Rydel whispered, "Distract them please, so he can get out." Alyson nodded and looked over to Rocky, "Baby," she said, walking over to him, he smiled, kissing her, but she turned him around and kissed him for a while, watching Ratliff slip out of the bunk and down to the floor.

"Morning Ellington!" Alyson said taking Rocky's hand. "Get a room you two, geez." He laughed. He hopped up, "Wakey Wakey, eggs and bakey, Riker!" He jumped into his bunk. "Dude, what the hell man? Hahah!" Riker yelled in a sleep tone, "Why do you smell like perfume?" Ratliff jumped back down with Riker behind him, "Rydel had sprayed perfume where I had my, um, clothes set out." Riker nodded, "Oh, yeah she does that! Haha!"

Rocky intertwined his fingers with Alyson, "Breakfast and getting dressed or?" She kissed him, "Mmm... How about breakfast and getting UNdressed, inside the hotel?" He nodded, "Okay.." They walked off the bus along with the others.

Stormie gave them their separate room keys, "Alyson, Rocky, Riker, Rydel in this room. It is a suite, one separate bedroom for you each two. I figured the girls could share a bed?" Alyson and Rydel nodded, but Rocky frowned. Stormie eyed him, "Or Rocky and Alyson can share a bed, but don't do anything I wouldn't do... Yes?" He nodded, quickly taking the key and pecking Alyson on the cheek.

"Ratliff, Ross, Ryland in the other room. Yes? No objections anyone?" She paused, looking at them all. "Great!" You all go shower up and order some breakfast and we'll meet in the lobby in let's say 3 hours." Everyone broke up to their rooms, that we're right next to the others.

"Okay!" Rydel said, "I'm gonna take one of our bathrooms." Riker nodded, "I'm gonna use that one after you. Alyson, do you wanna go first in the other one?" She nodded, "Yes, thanks Rike! Rocky," she turned slowly and quietly, "Do you want to join me?" It was almost a whisper and he swallowed, "Mhm.." She smiled. "Okay. I'm gonna get my stuff ready!" Rydel smiled and walked with Riker into their shared part of the suite, leaving Rocky and Alyson in their room with their over night bags. "I'll be in the shower..." She said grabbing her stuff and walking into the bathroom. "I'll be following you.." He walked behind her.

"Del! Rydel?!" Alyson knocked on the door after her and Rocky's shower. Rydel opened the door and pulled her inside. "Okay. Riker is in the shower. We have to talk really quickly!" Alyson's eyes widened "About?!" but Rydel smiled, "What is up with you two?!" and Alyson blushed, "What do you mean?" Rydel rolled her eyes, "Don't even try to play Alyson. You guys are all over each other." Alyson smiled and giggled a little, "I think that the two of us moving in together is the best thing for right now, but I love him so much that..." She paused, "I can't jinx it!"

Rydel jumped up and down quietly, "No please tell me! You love him so much that what??" Alyson smiled, "I think we might get engaged later this year or next.." "OH MY GOD. ALYSON. THATS HUGE!" Alyson smiled, "But I have to talk to you really fast about Ellington, Del." Rydel got quiet, "I know... We aren't doing a very good job of hiding it." Alyson nodded, "I don't have a problem bailing you out sometimes, but try a little harder, or at least tell one other person so I'm not a lone man trying to help you guys out."

Rydel shook her head, "No no no, no no. I mean, we contemplated telling Rocky, just so you two could talk, but not right now." She sighed, "We have tour right now, it'd be more stress." Riker walked out, "What would be more stress?" Alyson froze with Rydel, Alyson spoke, "To try and learn new songs to perform for sound check. I had an idea, but it'll be too hard to learn and perform in one day."

Riker shook his head, "Um. We can figure it out. What is it?" She brightened her face, "It's called Do I Wanna Know by the-" "Arctic Monkeys... I love that band." He said. "We should check it out to do." They both smiled, "That'd be cool! I'm gonna go check on Rocky now... So. Be right back!"

"We have to be downstairs in 10 minutes guys," Rocky said, watching Alyson do her last curl on her hair and finish her mascara. "You're gorgeous." He kissed her cheek, smiling at her, they all four walked downstairs with everyone else.

ALYSON'S POV

'Sound check went great. I love you guys!' I attached a picture of me and Rocky on the stage and sent it to Dylan and Kay. Sound check had gone so smoothly. Then we had meet and greets. People were actually asking to take pictures with me, "Rocky's girlfriend" was a big hit. I loved it. I understood why they loved this so much, they're all so nice and wanted to give you presents and it was great.

The concert had started and I got to sit on the wings with Stormie, Mark, and Ryland after he finished. We talked and had a fun time during the concert. After it was over the band had signings. They did every last one, and by the time they were done it was well past midnight.

"Alyson, Rocky, Rydel, and Riker your alarms should be set for 5 am sharp! We have a morning show here before we go to the bus to head to our next stop." Rocky groaned, "Ugh. The one part I dislike is getting up at 5 am." I smiled, grabbing his hand as we walked down the hall, "As long as I wake up at 5 am next to you, I don't mind..."I kissed his cheek and he pressed me against the hotel hallway wall, kissing me crazily, making me laugh. "Whoa there, lovebirds, save it for the room!" Riker and Ross laughed, heading to their separate rooms.

Rocky let me down and we walked hand in hand into the room and got ready for bed. "I love you, Rocky..." I mumbled, lying down next to him. "I love you more..."
