The plane began to lower from the sky, and I popped a piece of gum into my mouth to stop my ears from popping. I powered off my phone and placed it in my pocket.

We were soon on the ground and our bags were getting handed back to us. I made my way off of the plane and into the Phillidelpihia Airport. I soon saw a group of guys dressed in black, and their girlfriends too.

Ricky was the first to run up to me and lift me into the air. We shared a quick kiss before Chris practically yanked me out of his arms. I hugged him and then I was passed onto the next person who wanted a hug.

"How was the trip?" Ricky asked as we walked into the airport's food court. We sat down at Applebees.

"It was good," I replied. "Let's order the food and I'll tell you guys about it."

The restaurant surprisingly had a table big enough to fit all of us. We sat down, Ricky at my side. I ordered a small basket of chicken tenders - very childish, I know.

"Give us details!" Balz practically screamed at me.

"Geez, okay," I muttered. "I visited my mom, and my siblings that I guess I have.  Their names are Avalynn, Kaylee, and Johnnie. Lynn's a huge fan of you guys. I also ... put my ... I put my dad in jail."

Ricky grinned. "That's my girl."

I laughed and shook my head. "It was stressful."

"What's your dad in for?" Ghost asked.

Oh yeah, they don't know about the abuse.

"Child abuse, drug abuse, sex trafficing, and murder," I listed.

Chris shook his head. "Damn. At least he's gone."

"Yea, I know."

The waitress walked up to us and handed us our food. Ricky immideitly stole one of my fries and I slapped his hand playfully.

"I'm so tired," I groaned, taking another bite of my chicken.

"We can take this to go," Ryan said.

"No, I'll be okay."

Ricky leaned in and whispered in my ear. "Do you want to come over, after dinner?"

He was blushing and I laughed. "Yes, Rick."

I ran my finger through his hair as he nuzzled into my neck. He was so shy, it was adorable. Chris grinned and took a picture of us, making me give him the bird. I took another bite of my food and continued petting Rick's head.

Ricky and I sat on his black leather couch that had seemingly becoming more comfy every time I sat on it. I was wrapped up in another one of Rick's hoodies; and his arms. Chicha was on the floor by our feet. Chris dropped her off for me earlier.

The t.v. played a new show that had come out a few weeks ago. I had never seen it but Ricky said he wanted to try something new. I wasn't paying attention. In fact, I even forgot the name.

"Are you excited for tour?" Ricky asked.

"Yea, I just hope it's better than the last tour," I said.

"Well, we aren't fighting anymore, so it's gonna be way better than the last tour."

"That's true." I was silent for a second before I continued. "I want food."

"We just ate Applebee's."

I laughed at his look of slight confusion and amusement. "I skipped breakfast and lunch," I explained.

"You can eat me for dinner." He gave me a cringey wink and I blushed, burying my face in my hands.

"No, Ricky!" I groaned, punching him in the arm. He chuckled and rubbed the spot I had just hit.

Hs got quiet and I looked to him. "Hey, um ... I don't want to rush you because I know you said to give you time, but-"

"Yes, Ricky, I will be your girlfriend."
