Not what I expected ...

The four teen girls ran backstage squealing in anticipation only to begin full on yelling at the sight of their friends, proudly wearing their 'backstage passes'.

Tati immediately sprinted into the arms of her beloved boyfriend, despite only being separated for less than a week she felt like her world was somehow complete in that moment.

Tahani walked over to Josh who went for a fist bump, instead received the warmth of the shorter girl around his torso. He slowly pulled his arms around her too continuously telling her how amazing the performance was, expressing his pride in her in any way possible.

Taylor didn't even need to move as her best friend ran up to her instead, lifting her off the ground and beginning to spin together. Taylor couldn't help but giggle at the action, pulling his cap over his eyes jokingly until he let her down, however she didn't find her escape in time as Josh started ticking her sides filling the room with both of their contagious laughs.

As for the last two they just walked towards one another before wrapping themselves in the comfort of another. Kaycee's head rested on Sean's chest while the boy put his chin atop her head, both swaying on the spot from one foot to the other.

It was a moment of complete love and adoration that the teens had for one another that would never be forgotten.

Suddenly Josh P began jumping around and bringing everyone into a huge group hug. The girls laughed heartily while they were stuck beneath the boys who towered over them, obscuring everything from their view and creating an illusion of them being the only people in the world.

"So you lot flew all the way out here AND got backstage passes just for us?"

"Well Tots, what kind of friends would we be if we left you without support?" Josh replied ruffling Tati's already fluffy hair.

"But, we don't want to spend the whole night here so come on get changed?" The girls made a run for the changing room all too giddy to even talk about anything but the night ahead of them.

It was about 7.30 when they were finally out of their costumes and sporting their regular clothes.

The boys smiled upon the sight of the four tired but nevertheless happy girls. "Our first stop-" Josh's announcement was cut short by a sharp cough behind the group.

Sean's hand slowly slipped from where it had been resting of the door handle as they all turned to face the girls' agent, a strict middle aged woman who never appeared without her black blazer.

"Where do you think you all are going?" It was then that it struck the girls that with being under sixteen came the part where they needed permission to separate from the crew.

"We um, we were wondering if we could go out to explore New York for a little while?" Kaycee asked unsurely, her confidence wavering slightly under the older woman's gaze.

She crossed her arms "And can I trust these young men to bring you back by ten ?" Now the tension shifted to the boys who became uncharacteristically unsure.

"Of course, we'll take care of them." Following Josh B's words the agent's face melted into a smile as she shook her head.

"Go ahead, I know how you teens are with your freedom " the eight quickly set out of the doors and were on their way to one of the more relaxed alleys of the city to find their food stop.

The conversation was flowing easily, it was loud and attracted attention but evoked only smiles on the pedestrians' faces, who saw how happy the group was as they marched the streets.

They finally settled on a small corner restaurant after a heated argument between Tati and Sean, debating which of the three available options was the healthiest.
