Stuck Together

The First Night

“When he said it was empty he meant it” Steven placed his bag down by the door

“what time is it?’’ his partner rubbed his eyes

“8:38 p.m.’’

“I'm tired, we should get ready for bed.” He yawned opening his suitcase and pulling out a change of clothes and his toothbrush.

Heading out into the large hallway and looking around at each door. Not knowing which one was the bathroom he entered one, hoping for it to be what he was in search for. Pushing the door open he peeked into the cracked light to avoid walking in at the wrong time. Laura was sitting at a small table writing on a piece of paper.

“Excuse me, Laura.” she turned her head as he began to close the door

“Did you need something?” She asked, he lightly reversed his action.

“Do you know where the bathroom is?”

she stood up to direct him “It's straight across from my room.” She pointed to a closed entrance. The guitarist thanked her and continued to get ready for bed, making his way to the door.

“Hey…?!” he paused at seeing Martin going the same direction he was

“Martin.” he filled the missing spot where his name was suppose to be said.

“Yeah sorry” he nodded his head

“are you going into the bathroom?”

“yeah.” Martin raced to the door after hearing his answer, opening it before Joe. The guitarists stopped, squeezing his eyes shut before knocking on the piece of wood. Martin peaked his out

“are you serious?” Joe crossed his arms

“Sorry but a Handsome face has no wait.” he closed the door again and was followed the repetitive pounding on the door

“Joe, you’ll get your turn just wait.” Brad had found the noise that he was bothered by.

The young adult rolled his eyes and slouched down to wait for his turn. With his knees bent up and his arms crossed against them, Joe sunk his head into the gap that was made between his arms. After minutes of the young adult waiting, Martin stepped out and reminded Joe of his turn. When he had not moved Martin crouched beside of him, tapping him lightly. With no response, Martin giggled silently before letting the guitarist sleep.

“I don’t see why we have to be separated. Why couldn’t Manny and Ian just share with us.” Roland sat with his legs criss-crossed on top of the bed

“Maybe they wanted to give us some space” Curt was going through his bags looking for his sleepwear

“But they put Tony with Steve and John.”

“That’s because Joe forgot to give him a room.”

“Are you going to change here or are you going to the bathroom?” The singer gave notice to his friends now discovered clothes.

“I would prefer in here so I don’t have to search for the bathroom." Roland covered his hands with his eyes

“I’m not changing in front of you, Roland. So if you would kindly step out.”

“I’m not looking.”

“I don’t care, I'm not getting changed in front of you”
