Chapter 6

“I hope they’re home,” Dia said to herself. She took a deep breath and knocked on the large wooden door. A moment later, it opened, a brunette with light blue eyes and of medium height, standing behind it.

“Dia!” the girl exclaimed. The two of them hugged.

“Hey Emy, how’s life?” Dia asked, leaning against the door jam. Emy snickered.

“What life?” she said, sarcastically. “Here, come on in.” She stepped aside to allow Dia to enter, but she didn’t move.

“I’m afraid we don’t have time for that,” Dia said, her tone serious. Emy stood up straight.

“What happened?” she asked, fully alert.

“Clovin.”

A few hours later, on the tour bus

"Donna found it kind-of strange that we took on 3 extra people," Howie said, lounging on the couch.

"But when I told her you were both with me," AJ joked, "she understood." He put his arms around Dreama and Kaisa. Dreama groaned and disappeared. Suddenly, Nick's hair stood on end.

"Dreama!" Kaisa scolded. Dreama just grinned and looked around the bus. She spotted Brian. He was sitting, alone, on his bunk, which was at the back of the bus. He was staring blankly out the window. She went over to him and levitated up, sitting next to him.

"You okay?" she asked. He broke his gaze and looked around, confused. "Whoops, here." Dreama then became visible. "That's better. You okay?" Brian shrugged and rested his head on the wall behind him. You're worried about her, aren't you?" Brian nodded.

"What if she gets hurt?" he sighed. Dreama stared at him in disbelief.

"You've gotta be kidding me," she said.

"What?"

"The first time you saw her, you wanted to kill her. Now, you're worried about her? What next? You falling in love with her?" Brian looked down at his hands, then sheepishly at her. "Oh, Hades, no. That's it! I'm gonna shoot you! Kaisa! Can I shoot Brian?"

"No!" Kaisa yelled from the front of the bus. "One dead Backstreet Boy is enough!"

"Damn!" Dreama swore. She looked out the window. "This is pathetic. You haven't even known her for a day! How the hell did you manage to fall for her?"
