the Good, Bad & Inbetween - A Ronnie Radke reader

Chapter 9: Truths Tested

The roadies had loaded all of the luggage into the bus. Marlo finished handing out our badges and said his goodbyes. We all boarded the bus and were amazed. It had 2 full couches and a flat screen TV. There was a normal sized fridge and stove next to 2 little counter tops attached to cabinets. "Marlo did a decent job this time." Derek said. "Wait where are we sleeping?" Ryan asked. All of the guys looked at each other and ran to pick out their rooms. Derek and Ron took the small room with bunk beds on the right and Jacky along with Ryan took the bunks next to the kitchen. I only saw one other door besides the bathroom. I opened it and found a Queen size bed. I looked back at Ronnie and became a little worried. "Where am I staying?" I asked him. "Well I guess we're sharing a room." He smirked "oh...um. Yeah" I replied anxiously. "If it bothers you that much I'll just sleep on one of the couches" Ronnie said, noticing my nervous facial expression. "Well...no its fine" I said hesitantly. Although I had feelings for Ronnie, I never actually had thought about sharing a room, much less a bed with him. But I felt like I needed to suck it up. What was the worse that could happen anyways? I decided to take a shower after we started out on our journey. Showers always helped me calm down, and I was still a little nervous about sharing a room with Ronnie. When I got out I looked around for a towel and couldn't find one. "Shit!" I whispered to myself. I peeked my head out of the door and saw no one was coming so I made a run for my room. I breathed a sigh of relief, pressed up against the door, when I finally looked in the bed. There was Ronnie asleep. It felt like I was having a heart attack. I ran over to my bag and stealthily pulled an outfit out. I went to leave the room and go back in the bathroom but someone was in there. I ran back to the room and threw on my underwear and turned around just in case. I heard a knock at the door which then woke Ronnie up. In confusion he looked around the room and could see my bare body in nothing but a thong. I literally wanted to die, seeing his reaction in the mirror on the wall above the dresser "Hey I'm out of the bathroom now" I could hear Ryan say. I threw a t shirt on and turned myself around. I could see Ronnie staring me up and down, looking very engaged on my body. I on the other hand was terrified. I ran out of the room and locked myself in the bathroom. How in the world would I work up the courage to leave the bathroom now? How could I face Ronnie after he just saw me practically naked! I knew the guys would be stopping and performing their first concert eventually so I just stayed in there until then. When I was almost one hundred percent certain everyone had left the bus I came out of the bathroom and went and climbed in bed. I decided it would
be best if me and Ronnie sorted out what happened the next day, and I doubted he would wake me just to talk to me about that. About two hours later my deep sleep was broken, and I could hear what was going on with the guys. I heard the guys come back onto the bus and they were talking about the show. "That stage set up was shitty. I could barely hear ourselves!" Ronnie shouted. All of the guys chimed in agreeance to what he had said. "I'm gonna go wash my makeup off and go to bed." I heard Jacky say. "Alright I'm taking a shower really quick." Ronnie replied. I jumped up and panicked... I grabbed my blanket that was on the chair and wrapped myself in it. While I was waiting, and listening to when Ronnie would be coming in, I got hot. I pulled my pants off, and took off my bra too. I was still hot so I pulled up my hair and stuck my legs out of the blanket. I could hear Ronnie getting out of the shower. I pretended like I was asleep when he came in the room to avoid any confrontation. By then I had realized my ass was hanging out of the blanket, but I couldn't move. The dresser was right next to the door at the end of the bed. I peeked up and I could see Ronnie digging in his side of the dresser for some boxers, with a white towel wrapped around his bare body. I could hear him get dressed and he turned the light off and climbed in bed. He felt for me, and kissed my forehead. "I wish you could hear me but god I'm so happy you decided to come." he rolled over and turned his phone off. I sat there pondering what had just happened...did he really mean it?
