nashville reborn (sequel to NN)

Chapter 12

***
We had been on tour for about a month now, and if you guessed that Naomi, Hannah, and Jennifer were still fighting, then you guessed right. My plan didn't work. Jennifer had talked to them both and forgiven them, but you could see that there were still issues. Hannah and Naomi had physically gotten into fights several times that Tuck and Mike have broken up. It made everyone so uncomfortable. Jase and Ryne had started clinging to each other to avoid them, and Ridge and Isaiah did the same thing. Maddie, Tae, Carrie, and I all wished we could do something to bring it back like it was before.

We were traveling today to Vegas. We were currently in Colorado, and had so many more hours on this bus. All the kids were in the front playing video games with Tuck and Mike. Hannah was in her bunk drawing. She was an amazing artist, and drawing was her outlet other than music. Naomi was in her bunk too. Jennifer, Maddie, Tae, Carrie, and I were all in the lounge watching Friends just like we always used too.

"Bringing the old times back with this" Maddie says. She was laying on the couch with her head on my lap. Tae was lying on the one across from us, and Carrie was sitting up on the one against the back wall with Jennifer.

"I miss those days. Back when we had no worries" Tae says.

"Yeah, now everyday, there's a new concern for all of us" I say.

"No, mine has been consistent" Jennifer says.

"They'll figure it out" I say.

"Well, we'll see" She says. We all went back to watching the TV. It was so hard not to worry about the girls fighting because no one could do or say anything without it somehow being twisted into something involving the girls. Tuck was right when he said that this dream reunion turned into a nightmare. To make matters worse, Ridge had gotten some stomach bug and passed it onto Ryne, so they spent a lot of the time throwing up in the mornings and late at night. I figured it was just the weather changing as we traveled from state to state.

We finally got to Vegas at three o'clock that morning. We were going to be there the whole week, so instead of just staying on the bus, we got a hotel room. Ridge, Ryne, Marissa, and Rocky all shared a room. Isaiah and Jase shared. Carrie and Mike, obviously. Tuck and I. Maddie and Tae, and the Runaway June girls shared. I was kind of interested to see how that went, but maybe it would be a good thing.

I climbed into bed next to Tuck and put my head on his chest.

"It's so good to lay in a bed, and not a bunk" I say.

"Agreed. Especially when I get to lay next to you" He says. I kissed his lips softly.

"I love you so much. This tour has sucked, but you make it so much better" I say.

"I-I really thought that Naomi and Hannah would have made up by now. It's been a month and it's gotten worse. I don't even think you know this, because you were on stage, but Hannah was trying to get her instruments out of the dressing room one night and Naomi tossed her brand new mandolin on the ground and shattered it. Hannah jumped on her back and Naomi started swinging. Thank god Mike was there. I drug Hannah off and he held Naomi back" He explains. My heart broke hearing that.

"So we've got two bestfriends at each others throats...literally. And, two of our girls are sick as dogs. Yay" I say sarcastically.

"Maddie and Tae are saints for taking care of Ryne and Ridge" He says.

"I think that Maddie and Tae just want to keep themselves away from the drama. Plus, Ryne and Ridge might as well be their kids too" I say.

"Baby, I hate to say this, but-".

"Stop. Don't say that they're going to stop being friends, or disband, or anything. Twenty Years is too long to be friends and throw it away on something stupid" I say.

"Yeah, I know that. I just don't think Hannah and Naomi care anymore".
