Phoenix's pov:
i woke up being poked in the side by someone "sleeping." i said and was poked harder "nixy wake up!" I heard a small person say "yeah?" I rolled over and asked "i'm awake and no one else is! I need cereal!" She said dramatically and rolled my eyes before going to make her a bowl of cookie crisp, i decided to join her and sat down on the sofa next to her eating my own cereal "what you watching?" I asked, yawning slightly "Bryanstars." she said, i finished my cereal and dumped the bowl into the sink, i checked the time and realised that it was only 4:30 am i gasped and walked back into the lounge "okay i'm going back to bed." i told her and she shrugged "thanks for the cereal, i'm to short to reach the cupboard. its shit." she said i laughed and then realised that dad must let her curse like that "night." i said and went back to the bunk. I climbed back in and lay down next to Tj "yay your back!" Tj said sleepily, i smiled and rested my head on his chest "it was cold without you." he told me and i rolled over to face him "well Sarah needed food." i shrugged and he rolled his eyes "already putting her before me! I see how it is." he said dramatically folding his arms and turning away "we aren't even dating and she's cuter than you!" I told him. i lay back and closed my eyes before something landed on top of me, i opened one eye and saw Tj hovering above me "You take that back!" He said his voice full of fake anger "Never!" I said a little to loudly "erm guys?" I heard someone say and we both looked to see Craig "the no sex in the bunks rule still stands." i facepalmed awkwardly and Tj blushed "we weren't doing that." Tj said and Craig shrugged and walked off.
*creepy deep animal planet narrator voice*
Meanwhile on meerkat manor, Robert skipped around the bus singing about how phoenix and Tj were going to 'do the sex' craig was being given ten dollars from kevin for losing the bet that Tj and Phoenix would get back together and rueben and max are still asleep. (Yeah guys i just did that XD 😂)
Still phoenix's pov:
"You guys are dicks you know that right?" Tj laughed and i rolled my eyes at there stupidity "i can't believe you would put money on something that was obviously going to happen!" I heard dad say and i turned to glare at him "we're not even dating!" I snapped and dad held his hands up in defence "its still going to happen, jeez phee." i rolled my eyes and sat on the arm of the sofa, a few seconds later someone pulled me into their lap making me think of my first week on the bus. i turned to see who i was now sat on and saw the now short black hair of none other than Bryan Money "MONTE!!" I yelled hugging him tightly "missed you to kiddo!" He said happily "guys! Its only 7am why are you yelling?!" Rueben said and i rolled my eyes hugging monte again, Tj fake pouted "you didn't do that when you saw me!" I shrugged and Monte stuck his tongue out "i'm just better!" He said and i laughed, remembering our second meeting and how he completely embarrassed himself by face planting the carpet "i'm going to get changed guys." i said standing up and walking to the bunks, i pulled my suitcase off of Tj's and got a clean set of underwear out, i got as far as that before someone wrapped there arms around my waist "do you remember that tour when you got so sick of not having clean underwear you bought 100 pairs of black panties?" Tj asked and i nodded "i was young!! And sick of living on a cramped bus with four guys!" Yep i know what your thinking, how the fuck does underwear have anything to do with being sick of living with dudes?! Well when there guys who hide your underwear, it kind of sucks! "Do you remember that time where craig dared you to stand on the roof of the bus while it moved slowly and you fell and broke your wrist?" I asked and i felt him nod while i laughed "Tj i need to change!" I told him and he let go of me but didn't leave "you could at least stand outside?" I said and he shrugged "i've seen it all before, you've just more tattoos this time!" I rolled my eyes and pulled off my shirt revealing at least two dozen tattoos on my back, stomach and ribs. Tj looked at them all, studying each one carefully before pointing out the small heart i have on my lower rib cage "whats the date for?" He asked tracing the outline of it with his finger "it was the date i miscarried.." i said and Tj lifted the edge of his shirt up revealing a heart almost identical to mine with the same date on it "this was the date you left.." he said and i nodded.. he pulled me into a hug as we both began to cry "i can't believe i could've had a kid.." he said and i nodded "i couldn't believe it either.." We held onto each other and cried for a good few minuets "baby its okay.. i'm sorry you had to go through that alone.. we can try and move on together though.." i nodded and Tj let go of me "now wipe those tears away gorgeous, we're going out." he said and i rolled my eyes pulling my shirt on and then my jeans before grabbing my black vans out of my suitcase. "PHOEEENIIXXXX!" Tj yelled from the front of the bus "i'm coming!" I yelled back, tying my laces and pulling on a hoodie "where you going phoenix?" Dad asked and i shrugged "no idea!" Tj started dragging me out if the bus "bye guys!" I yelled and Tj pulled me down the street.
"Wooh Starbucks at last!" Tj said as he sat us down in a booth "why is this place so important?" I asked and he shrugged "this was the first Starbucks i ever took you to.." he said and i looked around "holy shit it is!" i exclaimed drawing some attention to us. i giggled and Tj smiled "your to cute!" He said and i smiled "anyways, so i brought you here cause i wanted to ask you ifyou'dbemygirlfriendagain." he said, his words mixing together as he spoke faster and faster "huh?" He chewed his lip and looked down at his coffee "would you want to be my girlfriend again?" He said nervously and then looked up at me "of course i would Tj." i said wondering why he was so worried about it in the first place. He smiled and we picked up our coffees walking back to the bus hand in hand..
