I was sprawled out on the couch, while Andy got ready for their show later in the day, when Sammi burst through the door. "I didn't know what brand was best so I grabbed eight different ones!"

She swiftly pulled me off the couch and shoved Andy out of the bathroom, before pulling me in with her. "Here's one, pee on it." she said smiling.

I sighed and looked her, motioning her to turn around to at least give me some privacy. She rolled her eyes and turned around, while opening the next one. Once I had peed on all eight of them we headed back to the living room, "Finally!" Andy exclaimed as he ran to the bathroom, only to return a few seconds later, "On second thought, Sammi you got a mirror I can borrow?"

Sammi grumbled something unaudiable under her breath as she headed to her and Jinxx's bunk to retrieve one from her purse. Andy smiled triumphantly and sat cross legged on the floor, humming softly to himself as he did his makeup.

"How you holding up?" Sammi asked, gently sitting next to me.

"Alright I guess, definitely not ready." I said leaning back.

A few moments later, Jinxx threw open the door in and ran straight to the bathroom. Sammi and I looked at eachother and burst out laughing, when we heard screaming from the bathroom. Jinxx ran out to where we were in the bus and picked Sammi up, twirling her around, "Wow this is so great, I can't wait to be a father!"

"Jinxx!" Sammi yelled. He quickly put her down. I began to turn white as Sammi ran to the bathroom to check the results.

"Aren't you happy!?" he called after her, walking towards the bathroom.

"Jinxx, they aren't mine" Sammi whispered, but I could hear it.

"Oh" he said, finally realizing that I was in the room.

I looked at Sammi, knowing what her answer would be. She nodded and I burst into tears. "Oh sweetie come her!" She said wrapping me in her arms. "Its going to be ok, I'll be here for the whole tour."

I smiled as the tears became less. Jinxx smiled at me and introducecd himself.

"Hailey," I replied, "but everyone calls me Harley."

"Oh hey, I know you, I saw your band play today! You were amazing!"

"Thank you" I said laughing lightly.

"If you don't mind me asking, who is the father?"

I looked down and sighed, "Our guitar player"

"Oh I didn't know you were a thing, I'm sorry"

"No, no we aren't a thing. I don't even know how it happened"

"Ah, I see. Haha, I was trying to figure out if I should tell you he was cheating then."

Everyone started laughing at this. We talked for a while longer, when my phone started going off. I looked at the screen to see Levi, Kenney, and Jason taking turns calling me. I sighed and answered it...

"Hello?"

"Harley, where are you? We have been looking all over for you!" I heard three boys scold into the phone.

"I'm sorry, I just needed sometime alone. I'll meet you at the bus in a few" I said quietly.

"We will talk about this later young lady!" I heard Jason scold while the rest of the guys said goodbye.

"I'm sorry, I should probably head back before I get grounded or something." they all started laughing and hugged me goodbye.

"If you ever need anything you are welcome over any time" Andy called from the floor.

"We need to have a girls night!" Sammi exclaimed hugging me again.

I said goodbye and walked out the door and walked the short distance to my bus. As soon as the boys saw me I was tackled to the ground, first by Kenney who had been waiting on the bus steps.

"Never run away again!" Jason scolded.

"Guys, I was right next door, calm down!"

"Please just tell us next time!" Kenney begged kissing my hand and pulling me to my feet.

"Can we go get food now, its almost seven, I'm going to starve to death!" Levi said dramatically, falling to the ground for emphasis.

We walked to a nearby McDonalds discussing today's performance and what we could do better tomorrow in Nevada. After ordering and receiving our food we hunted down a table, which was quite comically, by the way Kenney and Jason made it dramatic by humming the Mission Impossible song. Let's just say, we got alot of stares. So while those two tried to find a tabe, Levi and I walked along behind them, trying to hold back our laughter.

"Are you ok?" he asked, concern filling his eyes.

"No"

"Is that all you are going to say?"

"I don't really want to talk about it right now"

"Harley, you know you can tell me anything"

"Levi, I know but not here. Meet me in the back of the bus after Jason and Kenney fall asleep"

He looked at me surprised, "Not to do that!" I exclaimed turning red.

"Sorry, I can hope right."

"Yeah" I said looking down at me feet.

He smiled down at me and wrapped a free arm around me, guiding me to the table the other two found, while I became lost in thought. Should I tell him?
