Chapter 5

About 20 minutes later all the guy's got on the bus. I had my curtain closed so they wouldn't see me. Brian knew I was in there and opened the curtain. I was lying on my bunk listening to music (BSB) and thinking. I looked up and saw him. I put on a fake smile and sat up and took off my earphones.

"Yes?" I asked politely, always keeping my fake smile on.

"Why are you in there?" He asked.

"Just wanted to think." I said. He sat beside me.

"About what just happened." He asked. I didn't want to lie so I looked away.

"You know they really are sorry." He said. I nodded my head.

"But there's something else wrong isn't there?" I nodded my head again.

"What is it?" Aj was listening in on the conversation and thought I was going to tell him.

"I can't tell you." I whispered. He sighed and got up.

"If you ever want to talk I'm here." He said and walked away.

"Great, now two of the Backstreet Boys hate me." I said out-loud and hit my head against the wall. But a little harder then I thought I would.

"Ow!" I cried. AJ jumped out of the bed and went over to me.

"Are you ok?" He asked. I looked up and nodded.

"Yeah, I just hit my head a little harder then I thought I would." I said. He smiled a little.

"Well you shouldn't be hitting your pretty head anyway." He said. I blushed. I never took compliments well.

"And I don't hate you, neither does Brian." I gave a small smile.

"Why didn't you tell him?" He asked. I realized he wouldn't hurt me so I patted the seat next to me. He sat down.

"I didn't tell him because I know you guys are friends. If I were in the same situation as you were, I probably would've done close to the same thing. Also if I told Brian he'd get mad at you, all of them would. I couldn't let something between you and me get between you and your best friends." I explained. He nodded his head.

"Thanks, I wish all girls were like you." He said. I again blushed.

"Why are you in this bus anyway?" He asked. I gave a small sigh.

"There wasn't enough room in our bus, so I came to stay in here since there was an extra bed." I said. He smiled.

"That's cool, I hope you'll be able to live with us, we can be pretty annoying." He said with a straight face. I smiled, it wasn't fake either.

"There, finally, I finally got to see you smile! You should do it more often, it's beautiful." I blushed, for the third time in 5 minutes.

"Come on, let's go in the room with the guys." I couldn't even answer because he took my hand and lead to the back room where everyone was there. Brian looked up and saw me with Aj. He was a little confused but he knew the reason I was upset was because of Aj, and everything seemed ok. Also Aj was acting himself.

"He likes here." Brian thought and smiled.
