Stephanie stared at Kevin as he downed an entire water bottle, waiting for an explanation of the initiation. He noticed her eager and curious glances and smirked. She crossed her legs and tapped her light pink nails on the small table.
"Well, are you going to tell me what the initiation is or not?" She asked, frustrated when he began eating some Cheetos from a bag on the counter.
"No, I’m not going to tell you what it is, but it will be the one of the nights we’re in Cleveland. The rules are, what happens during the initiation is not talked about with anyone else, ever. You understand? Even if you leave, you tell no one about any of it."
Stephanie nodded, shuddering under the serious glare in his jade eyes. Kevin noticed the slight chill of the bus and smirked at the thought of inviting her to share his bunk. She would refuse of course, but watching the sensual blush escape to her cheeks was his favorite part of teasing and taunting her.

Theresa stepped out of the bathroom in her PPG pajama bottoms and white tank top. Aj smiled and gestured towards his bunk, passing her to use the bathroom to change. Theresa climbed into the bunk and stretched her muscles under the soothing chill of the sheets.
A warm body crawled in next to her, pressing against her. A pair of lips began sucking along her collarbone as she moaned in encouragement. His hands stroked roughly down her body, diving into her pajama pants. The hands were too large to be Aj’s, Theresa realized as a palm cupped over her possessively.
"Nick, get the fuck away from me, you little Bastard…" Theresa screeched, pushing with all her strength against him until they fell from the bunk.
"What’s the matter Precious? Not in the mood tonight?" Nick hissed against her cheek. She had landed under him, fighting to extract his wandering hand from her pants.
"Not for you." She declared, shoving against his chest.
"Oh, so now it’s only Bone that gets to fuck you, huh? Are the rest of us not good enough for you…"
"Enough Nick, get off of her." Aj stated, walking from the bathroom.
"I don’t think I want to. I like it right here." Nick smirked up at him, pulling his hand from Theresa’s pj pants and shoving it up under her shirt. Theresa cried out when he squeezed roughly on her breast.
"Nick, I said that was enough." Aj warned again, never showing the slightest falter in his voice.
"Fine, but I really don’t find this fair. You aren’t pussy whipped for this little whore, are you?" Nick muttered and rose from the floor, leaving Theresa trembling slightly on the ground.
Aj just shot him a look and nodded for him to leave. Nick returned to the entertainment room with a little pout. As soon as he was gone, Aj helped the blond from the floor.
"Did he hurt you much, Trease?" He brought her a little closer to him and kissed her nose.
"Well, it hurts like hell but I don’t think he left a bruise…" Theresa stated, trying to rub some of the soreness from her breast.
"Come on, let’s go to bed. I’m tired." He led her back to the bunk and allowed her in first. They embraced lovingly under the blankets, nuzzled against one another to sleep peacefully.
**~~**~~**
"It’s gotten a bit chilly hasn’t it…" Kevin eyes wondered down from her tanned face to her well-covered body then back again.
"Yeah, it has. I’m gonna go to bed now." Stephanie sighed, feeling his gaze dress her down to what she was earlier wearing.
"Sounds like an excellent idea, though it’s sad you don’t have a lock on your curtains. Anyone could sneak right in and have their way with you and you wouldn’t be able to stop it." His words once again got the flush of pink to dance across her cheeks.
"Well, I would hope you young men are a little more gentlemanly than that…"
"I wouldn’t count on it Princess." He stated, moving his legs so she could pass and get out of the booth. "But if you stay in, hmm, my bunk, you’d be safe from all the hormonal males on the bus."
"Yeah, except you." She murmured simply, started to walk away before Kevin grabbed her arm and stood up behind her.
"Scared of me already?"
"No, not scared, just sick of you already. I seriously don’t like your attitude." Stephanie titled her head back slightly to look up at him, feeling his body press closer to hers. His hard endowment nudged her hip and she stepped back, trying to flee the incredible heat emanating from his body. Kevin pulled her back before she could escape, molding her body against his.
"What do you say we pick up where we left off in the elevator, I think we were just about here…" Before Stephanie could protest his lips claimed hers in a roughly passionate kiss. For a few moments, he had control of her, her hands raking through his soft hair. Kevin smirked and plunged his tongue into the depths of her mouth, dueling against hers for domination.
One of his hands held her against his mouth, keeping her from moving away, while the other roamed down her back to the hem of her sweatshirt. It managed to sneak under both the sweatshirt and the tank top she wore, caressing the warm skin hidden beneath. He groaned as his hand traveled upwards, indulging in her skin’s silky texture. His thumb grazed up her side, and his hand met no resistance where her bra should have been. He savored the delicate moan that was released in his mouth. His daring hand took their domination a step further, creeping around to the front of her body.
The realization of Kevin’s heavy, warm hand covering and caressing her naked breast pulled her back to reality. She breathed in sharply and tried to tug away, to escape his softly tormenting touch. Kevin noticed her desire to pull away and ended the kiss abruptly, almost as if leaving his life force. But his hands didn’t stray, one held her by the head to stare up at him, while the other reveled in the full, perked feel of her breast.
"You can’t deny that you like it…" He murmured, his nose brushing against hers teasingly. She tried to jerk away again, whimpering something too soft for Kevin to hear. "Can’t hear you Princess…"
"Get you’re fucking hands off me!" Stephanie allowed herself to almost wail. Kevin moved away briskly, almost making her unsteady body topple to the ground. The other men poked their heads out to see what was happening. One stern look from Kevin made them return to what they were doing.
"We’ll continue another time I guess. But my offer still stands on sharing a bunk. We could create a lot more heat in there." He grinned, brushing past her to go to his bunk.
Stephanie could find the air in her lungs to scream what she wanted to scream at him. She stared disgustedly at him, as he walked down to his bunk and quickly stripped himself of his jeans and undershirt.
"Just remember Sweet Ass, you could still have this next to you tonight." He grinned smugly, his cockiness filtering through his voice. She turned away from the sight of his muscled gorgeous body, clad only in a pair of boxers and walked into the bathroom.
Stephanie stepped back out after swiftly changing into her night shirt and slowly climbed up to her bunk, feeling slightly safer on a top bunk. She pulled the curtains closed and shut her eyes, a weird burning in her lower stomach. She screamed at herself mentally when a voice inside wanted him to continue, or her to join him in his bunk. She pulled her pillow over her head as tears of humiliation flooded down her face.
**~~**~~**
Kevin laid in his small bunk, trying to ignore how aroused he was after that kiss. She had kissed him back so freely, it made his mind wonder a little. He smirked when he pictured her pretty face aroused and embarrassed, staring up at him. He had thought to do what she feared and surprise her in her bunk, but he had frightened her enough for one evening. He grew even harder plotting for the initiation. He’d make sure he was first in line for that little angel.
**~~**~~**
Stephanie managed to keep her sobs quiet as each of the guys went to bed, and only after the bus was silent did she dare get up. She carefully hopped down and tip-toed into the bathroom with her pill bottle.
"Just two little pills and I’ll be okay again." She muttered to no one in particular, her hands shaking terribly as she held a cup of water. She swallowed a glass of water and stared up at herself in the small bathroom mirror. "I look like shit. Why couldn’t they just put me on tour with N*SYNC or Brittany Spears…"
The pills quickly took effect quickly, making her a little drowsy. But without the added alcohol it didn’t knock her right out. Her head pounded softly, at first sounding like a single drop of rain over and over again. Before she could get back to her bunk, it sounded more like a parade of elephants stomping around in her head. She swayed trying to climb back up into her bunk, almost falling. She managed to roll into her bunk and close the curtains before passing out.
**~~**~~**
Theresa woke the next morning to Aj’s warm body, still sound asleep beside her. She sighed contently and snuggled a little closer, inhaling his scent. Cologne and the faint odor of cigarettes. ‘How many times do I have to tell him smoking is bad?’ She smiled though, not really caring about anything except that he was still next to her. She allowed her hands to roam over his bare back. His muscles were relaxed under her touch, and he let out a tiny sigh in his sleep.
Theresa smiled and rested her head against his back, listening to the rhythmic beats of his heart, the inhale and exhale of every breath he took. She was on the edge of dozing off again when she heard a feminine whimper in the silence of the bus. ‘Shit, what are they doing to Stephanie now?’
She carefully slid over Aj’s sleeping body and walked down to Stephanie’s bunk. A small cry came from inside and Theresa feared to pull back the curtain.
"Please, stop please… No don’t…" Stephanie’s voice pleaded in a small sob, making Theresa pull the curtain back slowly. She released a sigh when she realized Stephanie was alone in the bunk. She watched the brunette fight in her dreams, thrashing and crying out for it to stop.
"Steph, wake up, it’s okay… Wake up Hun, you’re just dreaming…" Theresa barely touched her sweat covered arm when Stephanie jerked up in the tiny bunk, screaming.
Theresa saw the terror in her soft eyes and patted her trembling shoulder trying to sooth her. But Stephanie didn’t even seem to see her, her hallucinations still haunting her in reality. Theresa tried to calm her down even as all the guys woke to see what was wrong.
"What the hell is going on?" Nick shouted, combing his messy blond hair with his fingers as he walked up.
"I don’t know, she was having a nightmare and I don’t think she awake yet." She explained, watching the petite brunette cower to a corner of the bunk and pull her knees to her chest. Kevin walked over as well wonder what was happening now.
"Can’t you wake her up, some of us need our sleep!" Brian tried to sound more angry than worried but couldn’t manage it.
"Stephanie, Honey calm down… you’re just dreaming… Wake up…" Theresa tried again, wondering what was frightening her friend so in her sleep. Tears were streaming down her face, mixing with the sweat that covered her face. Stephanie buried her head against her arms and sobbed.
"Please make him stop… Please, someone make him go away."
