Toni POV
The early mornings never seem to get any easier even after being in this profession for over 4 years. Interviews, promo, shows, they all typically require waking up at some ridiculous time.
How could I complain though? I'm in a girl band with my 4 best friends, and I'm having the time of my life.

5:30am
"Toni! T!" Veronica calls, waking me up from my sleep. I groan and rub my eyes, stretching as much as my small bed on the tour bus allows me to.
Veronica rips the curtain back that cover my bunk. I put my hands over my eyes, shading myself from the light that pours in.
"C'mon! We got an interview to get ready for!" She says hurriedly, gesturing with her hands for me to get up.
"Okay, okay I'm up." I say tiredly, as I climb out of my bed ever so reluctantly.
"Why are you ready so quickly?" I say, looking Veronica up and down in her outfit and completed hair and makeup.
She rolls her eyes. "Ugh, I've been up since 4. I woke up and couldn't sleep so I called Jay and asked him to bring the hair and makeup team sooner." She explains, fluffing her hair up in her pocket mirror she carries everywhere.
"Bet they appreciated that." I speak sarcastically, to which I receive a slap on the side of my arm.
"Oh be quiet. You know how much Jay loves doing my hair." She says, giving it a slight flip over her shoulder in true Veronica style.
"Mhm sure. At...4am." I whisper the last part but she still hears me and gives me a jokey glare.
"Right! That's enough chit chat. Either get yourself ready yourself or get in the hair and makeup chair. The team's bus is parked next to ours. The girls are just finishing up." Veronica states, walking down the length of the bus, about to leave but she turns and looks at me when I haven't moved yet.
"Go!" She shouts and I finally spring into action, the tiredness ever so slowly wearing off.

The radio interview
"So girls, you've dropped your third album! How do you feel?" The lively radio hosts questions us.
"Honestly it's such a good feeling," Betty speaks into her microphone. "We've been working so hard on it and it's so nice to finally be able to put it out into the world."
We all nod as Josie begins speaking. "And we always find it so cute to see all the fans reactions to it. Like, we love seeing what their favourite songs are and everything like that. It just all feels very rewarding." Josie says sweetly, with a beaming smile on her face.
"I can imagine," the radio host says. "And you're currently touring? How's that going?"
This time Cheryl speaks. "Oh, we always love touring. It's our favourite part, just being able to see all our fans from around the world and putting on a show almost every night. We love it." She answers. Her eyes meet mine and she smiles, knowing I was looking at her with the same look of awe in my eyes as I do every time.
I snap out of it and look away. Thank god we're on radio and there aren't any cameras on us. The fans would go crazy seeing that. They always go crazy with Cheryl and I. They think that we have something going on between us. The fans are super attentive and always pick up on Cheryl and I staring at each other for a bit too long, or a bit too lovingly. In fact, they're so convinced Cheryl and I are together, they've made a ship name for us. Choni.
