If I can't be with you

LA

Ross Point of View

We were touring for over a week now. Today was our show at home. We all were pretty excited and I was happy to get home, even if it was only for a day.

Yesterday we had an awesome show in Las Vegas. That was so crazy. Honestly playing in Las Vegas. After the show Riker, Ratliff and Rydel decided to go for a little party tour and they took Sophie with them. Mom didn't approve for Rocky and myself to go with them, so we stayed behind in the bus. I wasn't so thrilled about it. I was wondering the whole time, what they were doing. Anywhere between 3 or 4 am they came back to us in the bus. They all seemed a little bit drunk and surprise, surprise ...

Rydel and Ratliff were holding hands. So I think they made it official now. I was happy for them. Riker stumbled in the bus, while Sophie was trying to help him in here. She also looked a little tipsy, but definitely not as drunk as Riker.

"Whoah, what did you do?" I asked, when she finally managed to get him in the bus.

"What do you think we did? Now help me, before he is falling out of the bus again. He is pretty heavy." she replied. I got up and brought Riker to his bunk.

"Thank you bro, I love you so much." Riker said to me smiling before he fell asleep immediately starting snorring. I heard Sophie giggle behind me.

"So," she looked at me, "why are you still up?"

"I just couldn't sleep. It looks like you guys had fun. And Rydel and Ratliff seem to had even more fun?" We heard them make out in Rydels bunk. We quietly started to laugh, when we heard the noises.

"Hey guys, you're not alone in here." I told them. After that Sophie and I went back to the living room.

"So do you want something to drink?" I asked her.

"No, thank you. I think I go back to my bus and catch a little sleep, before the bus is starting to drive again." she answered yawning.

"I bring you over, making sure you get there safe."

"What, don't you think I can make it on my own? I'm a grown up girl."

"Yeah, drunk girl. Now get out here." I brought her to her bus, that was right next to ours. But still I enjoyed the short way with her. She turned around to me and I realized, that we were standing really close.

"Thank you rockstar." she giggled.

"Rockstar?"

"Yeah, my new nickname for you." she smiled. She looked gorgeous and was standing so close to me. I looked into her eyes and leaned in. She did the same and as I wanted to kiss her ...

... she threw up on my shoes. Nice, I thought to myself sarcasticly.

"I am so sorry," she said, whiping her mouth.

"No, it's ok. You should go to sleep. Getting sober. See you tomorrow. Sleep well." I patted her back, while she got into the bus. I got back to our bus and cleaned myself before I got to bed. I had problems to fall asleep. On the one hand because Riker was snorring even worse than the other days and on the other hand, because I had to think about the ending of this night. I almost kissed Sophie. My heart was racing at this thought.

And now I was sitting in the back of the bus, almost back at home and couldn't stop thinking about last night. What was going on with me, I know her only for 10 days now. Why does she have such an impact on me. We were bickering on each other all the time. But everytime she wasn't looking at me, I was watching her. When she was concentrating on something, she sticks out her tongue a little bit. And when she smiles the world lights up. Oh my gosh, am I falling for her?

We finally arrived at home and I got out of the bus. Rydel and Ratliff were following me, still holding hands and smiling like idiots. Rocky followd after them, soon greeted by his girlfriend Alexa. He got a little bit away with her. And Riker came out. He looked like he had a hangover, holding his head.

"I need to get back to bed." he said and went inside. The other bus stoped behind us and Andre and Sophie got out. She immediately blushed, when she saw me.

"So guys, I go to my appartement, getting fresh. I see you tonight." Andre said, before he left.

"Well, I should also leave and look for a hotel room for this night." Sophie said.

"No honey, you can stay at our home tonight. We have a guest room." My mom replied on that.

"I don't want to impose myself."

"No, you're not. Now just get in." My mom and Sophie walked into our home. I followed them, feeling thrilled about Sophie staying at our home. This will be an interesting day.
