Justin's POV:

"Jesse! Go to bed already!" I spat as Jesse rolled around on the floor.

"No! Mommy didn't say to go bed, so I don't want to!" Jesse pouted. "Mama Mora sent Gabe to bed, do you know what that means?" I asked him. He hung his head down, looking at the floor,

"I have to go to bed too."

"That's right. Now do it please." I demanded as I checked Jack's bunk to make sure he was asleep. I helped Jesse to his bunk, making him emediately fall asleep. I sighed in relief and headed to the back lounge.

"Justin?" I heard Vic's voice call me from our bus entrance. "Vic, what's up?" I asked as he walked into the back lounge. "Can I stay on your bus tonight possibely? Mike, Jaime, and Tony are pretty much dead and they locked the door. My key was on the bus." Vic blushed.

"Sure, man. Is it okay if you sleep on the couch? Mora has the extra bus."  He nodded and sat down next to me with a thud.

"So, you make your move yet?" Vic winked, nudging me in the ribs. I could feel my cheeks flow with red, "Well, we kissed but Gabe ruined it by being drunk and having a bus key. But, no, I haven't asked her out."

"Well, don't wait too long, man! Mora is fucking hot and someone will wipe her clean off her feet if you don't make a move soon." Vic warned me. I thought for a moment,

He was right.

If I didn't make a move on Mora soon, I might lose her to someone else. Mora is the perfect girl. Smart, funny, beautiful, talented, everything. She can make any guy fall at her knees at any time. That's why I need to win her over.

You're right, thanks Vic." I thanked him, he smiled. "Anytime. Now get some rest, we have a long day tomorrow." I nodded and hopped into my bunk, drifting off to sleep.

***1 week later***

Mora's POV:

"Hello?" I asked as I entered the kitchen area of our bus. It was currentally twelve in the afternoon and I was guessing no one was 'home'. I shrugged to myself and made some breakfast.

After breakfast, I decided that I would play some guitar. Ever since Justin said that I was a good singer last week, I have been re-thinking my music career. I thought about how good it was when I played my instrument or sung. I would always enjoy myself, it just seemed better with music in my life.

'What to play, what to play....' I thought to myself as I picked up Jesse's spare acoustic guitar. An idea popped up in my head.

I heard Aaron and Alan play a song on stage the other night and I had picked up the notes and lyrics pretty quickly. I smiled to myself as I started to play;

(When You Can't Sleep At Night by Of Mice and Men)

Here in this world I’m awaked with mistakes

But its love that keeps fueling me, Fueling me

Pretty little lady with your swollen eyes

Won't you show them to me?

I know I’m not that perfect

But you stay awhile

Baby, then you will see

Miles away I can still feel you

Lay your head down on my embrace, My embrace

Far away…

Pretty little lady with your swollen eyes

Won't you show them to me?
