(Melody’s POV)
At 5am my alarm buzzed. I awoke and looking around me, smelt the deeds of last night. I missed Brian, I truly did. And even thought I knew I shouldn’t, I felt safe with him and let me be me with him, no matter what. I would only get hurt in the end, I could tell…But I couldn’t stop it. I was in love.
I quickly showered and got dressed. Packed up the clothes I unpacked and joined Harmony in our bus.
“How you doing?” I asked. She just shrugged. We both jumped in our bunks, set our other alarms and went to sleep until 10am when we were at our next destination. Greenville, South Carolina.
“Ready to do it all again?” I asked as we drank hot tea.
“ If we survive through the autograph session.” She joked. At noon we took a taxi to Sam Goody where we did signings on our new self titled CD.
There were a lot of adults there, which surprised us since our target audience was teens. But gladly we signed as much as possible. At 4pm, security guards dragged us away. But still I didn’t feel like any star. I was just Melody. Who loved to sing with my sister. We went to the guys’ bus. Nick was the only one there right now. The rest went out.
I raided the mini fridge, wondering how theirs was always stocked. I made myself a sandwich while Nick & Harmony chatted.
“You better be careful, if someone saw you looking so pretty, they might pass out.” Nick complemented her.
“You think? Why aren’t you then?” She challenged.
“I might, I can feel the dizziness coming.” He joked. I smiled as I ate at the table. But felt jealousy tag me up. She had AJ, a wonderful boyfriend and yet she still got every guy’s attention. Maybe it was time, I acted available. Brian, wasn’t coming around and that was something that I needed to get over.
”Guys, I am going to go.” I announced and left, leaving them to whatever they felt like. I walked around the arena, in the direction of my bus, passing the other opening act’s bus. I had meet them only once, since they had a different choreographer and record label.
“Hey Melody, how are you?” Asked Matt. He was a member of one of the many upcoming boy bands, his called, Air, which consisted of only 3 guys (Matt, Ryan, & David).
“Oh, all right.” I answered.
“Hey- I was about to go to an early dinner, want to join me?” He asked. I thought about it for a second before giving in. The salad didn’t do much to subdue my appetite.

“Hey Harm!” I exclaimed surprised to see her on my bus.
“Hey hun.” She replied. I went to her side and kissed her softly.
“Whatcha up to?” I asked curious.
“Bugging Nick.” She replied smiling.
“Fun! Want to go to dinner with the guys and I?” I offered.
“Sure” She agreed.
“You mean I have to spend more time with her.” Nick joked. I laughed. I loved it when my friends and lovers got along. We took a limo to a fancy but secluded place. It was quicker than most places to eat, and had things that we could eat and still dance off afterward.
“you excited about the show tonight?” I asked.
“Of coarse!” she enthusiastically replied. I smiled.
“Me too!” I confessed.
“I am too.” Nick agreed.
“Yeah, I love the beginnings of a tour.” Howie chipped in.
“Exactly.” Kevin agreed.
“Nothing better.” Brian stated. We all didn’t eat much but enough to make us not hungry anymore. It wasn’t good to eat much before a show.
“Well Honey, you ready?” I asked as the limo pulled up the arena. We ran in, did a quick sound check and loitered in the rec area by the dressing rooms.
“Shit, Melody disappeared again.” Harmony commented.
“Go find her.” I encouraged.
“Thanks.” She said, gave me a quick kiss and vanished in the hall.
Brian moved in the seat next to me.
“What’s up Rok?” I asked feeling on top of the world.
“I think that I’m going to…okay well I know that I love Melody more.” Brian confessed.
“Congrats, man.” I replied.
“Do you think I’m doing the right thing?” He asked.
“Of coarse.” I replied.
