| Chapter Four - Forward March! | ||||
| Sixteen people on the road can be a deadly thing, especially when they are semi-crazy musicians. Not that they all are without manners and civilization but when around each other without a reason to behave, it is hard to keep track of who is doing what to who and what repercussion those acts can have. The fact is that besides Paul's truck and Ryan's hummer, every other vehicle could be looked on as a miracle for being able to stay on the road with the antics going on inside them. For Adam, as he drives the over sized ready to break down RV, his main problem was not pulling over and killing someone for doing something stupid. They had only been on the road an hour when Raquel with Serena came up front, sitting besides him and behind him, taking turns on a joke. Raquel's eyes gleam as she looks back at Serena before turning her head slightly so she is looking at Adam with an innocent grin. She licks her lips softly before winking some as she clears her throat to speak. "Adam?" Turning his attention from the road he sighs softly as he thumps his fingers against the wheel. Everything in him told not to answer, knowing that if she and Serena were together only trouble could follow. However, her voice had seem even and neither were giggling or attacking him as of yet. "Yeah boo?" he asks calmly as he keeps his eyes on the road, following the tail lights of Ryan in front of him. "I was just wondering," Raquel starts off as she turns in the springy chair so her legs are facing him, blocking the small pathway between the seats. "Are we there yet?" Adam blinked a bit. Was she kidding? They had a good three more hours ahead of them until they were at the bar they were set to perform at tonight around 9 pm. "No, go do something to keep yourself busy till I say were there," he says before quickly glancing over at her as if she was nuts as Serena snickers softly behind him. "Alright Serena what is it?" he asks, having to know what the two were plotting. Clearing her throat Serena sits up straighter as she just smirks. "Nothing just Adam I have a question?" "Oh yeah? What's that?" Adam asks curiously as his eyes go back to the road before glancing in the rearview mirror at her. What was the point of the rearview mirror anyways? he couldn't see through the RV to the back, there was a bathroom blocking the path at the very end. "Are we there yet?" Serena asks as Raquel cracks up laughing while Adam's face tinges red some. "Alright go away. The both of you!" Adam says, raising his voice some as he repositions himself in the seat so sitting up more, now annoyed in realizing this wasn't gonna end. "But Addy!" Raquel whines as she stops laughing only to force a pout at him. "I just need to know... are we there yet?" "GIRLS!" he yells some only to have them crack up, leaning into there seats as they give innocent looks towards there friend and driver. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile, up front, leading off the pack of musicians, Ryan drives with Kelly, Diane, and Jasmine. He hadn't minded getting all girls since he knew how crazy some of the others could get. In fact, he felt as if he had lucked out. He had his girlfriend, the sane Cruz child, and Adam's girl. What's the worse that could happen with that? Cat fights? over who? It wouldn't happen ever and he couldn't be more grateful. "So what do you do for a living Jasmine?" Diane asks as she looks back behind her at the bored looking Kelly who twirls her finger around a piece of hair while chewing gum like a cow chews grass. Jasmine, who sits besides Kelly with only a pillow separating them looks up from her copy of Sophisticates' Hair Style Guide. "Me?" She says, a bit surprised to be talked to before smiling sweetly towards Diane who's attention has left Kelly to her. "I'm a hair stylist... cosmetologist really. I do it all." Kelly turns her head to the side with a grin at the words hair. She had always been a girlie girl which was probably why boys fell for her so easily. "Hair? What styles can you do?" She asks curiously as she drops her strain of hair. "Everything in this magazine and more really. I just love hair. Its amazing what you can do with a little gel and time," Jasmine says before politely handing the magazine over to Kelly who sits up some and takes it, her eyes flipping over the pages. "OH! This will be so much fun! I smell a make over girls," Diane says with a grin as she bounces in her seat some. "You know the girls in the band could really use it too. They all wear it straight and dull..." "Tell me about it and Adam would totally look hot if he buzzed his head and lost all his trucker hats," Kelly says as she grins some. Jasmine, taken back by the girls appreciation of her craft grins only brighter as she starts to get some ideas in mind. "You know what I would like to do? Scrunch Raquel's hair, twist Serena's and like fan out Shaunna's hair. And then for the guys well hello, Paul can you say grow it out? And you're right, Adam could use a short style and OH! What about Beer Buzz. Like that John guy has a white man fro!" "I know it's SOOO bad," Diane agrees as Kelly nods. "We really could have fun." Ryan, who has listened unfortunately to the whole conversations groans some. He realized shortly why no one had fought him over getting the girls. He, only he, had been lucky enough to land the three girlie girls. He was gonna be stuck with this till in New York City? Suddenly he felt jealous of Adam who had been stuck with Raquel and Serena. At least they wouldn't talk hair and make up. They would talk about music and jokes. "You know who has a really cute butt?" Kelly says, laughing softly as she looks at the girls. "Justin Timberlake. Seriously, its just perky and round." Ryan could have shot himself for his dumb mistake right then and there. Hair, Clothes, and boys. He was in hell, a dark dark corner of hell. |
