on the tour bus, lauren sat on the couch as the boys chilled. they were already on the road to their next location, max had his own separate tour bus.
"aren't you tired?" nick asked from across the table.
"no, you barely talked to me today. let alone, when i was on stage you barely talked."
"i'm sorry, i said before i was going to put things behind me." nick sighed.

"ima get ready for bed." she said softly then getting up, walking over to the bunks.
she opened the curtain of brandon's bunk and he was taking a little nap, she kissed his cheek and closed the curtain.

grabbing her clothes, she went to the back section of the tour bus. shutting the door behind her, she got changed.
hearing a knock on the door, lauren rushed to finish dressing and said "come in."
"hey, lauren."
"oh hi, nick. sorry, i was just changing."
"i didn't mean to interrupt but i was going to play on the xbox." he chuckled.
lauren moved over and let nick go on the xbox, she moved her dirty clothes to the side and watched as nick started to play.

"how was the rest of the show." she asked.
"really fun, i love the energy of the fans."
"i can't wait for the rest of the tour. this seems like it'd be really fun."
"can we record a duet? i did it with edwin and i think i need a girl voice instead of his." nick chuckled.
"sure, what is it?"
"into you by ariana grande."

lauren took out her phone and hit record, nick playing the karaoke version on his phone.
"i'm so into you, i could barely breathe."
"all i wanna do, is to fall in deep."
"but close aint close enough, 'til we cross the line. so a name game to play, and i'll roll the dice."
"oh baby look what you started, the temperature's rising in here." nick sang though looking into her eyes.
"is this gonna happen?" lauren sang.
"been waiting and waiting for you to make a move, before i make a move." nick grabbed her hand under the table so it wasn't seen by the camera.

they continued out until the second chorus then fading out the ending.
nick leaned in and lauren's breath hitched, the two just inches apart from sharing a kiss.
though lauren found herself leaning in, she shook her head and backed up.
"n-nick, i'm sorry i-i can't do this." she said, stopping the video and walking out of the back section.

going back to her bunk, she cut the video and sent it to nick so he could post it.
making sure they had no signs of a connection or anything before sending it.
