Chapter eleven::
She groaned. The noise was really starting to get to her.
"Hey, Jen!"
"Tay, would you mind turning your music down just a couple notches, I'm trying to finish this crossword!"
"What’s wrong with my music?"
"Well, not only does Lenny Kravitz need some singing lessons, but he also needs a hair cut and a stylist, a decent pair of shoes, and maybe a number one hit for once. I’m sorry, but he just plain sucks."
He laughed "Alright." He popped the top on a dr. Pepper and leaned over her shoulder.
Jenna raked her hands through her dark hair "I've been trying to get this crossword done for like an hour..."
He took her pencil and scribbled down the answer.
"How the hell did you get that?"
"It was easy." He shrugged.
"Oh. Well, I'm done now. What are you doing?"
"Well, I wouldn't consider going to the back because Ike and Christy are necking harder than-"
"Too much info, ok?"
"Yeah, it is pretty nasty. I've been back there like twice to tell them to knock it off but..."
"Ew, ok, she's my cousin... or something like that."
"Ok. So, what have you got planned for when we arrive in Seattle?"
"I don't know. Maybe Becky and I will look around a little. I really don't know. I take it you guys will hit the sound check and do the concert, Then what?"
"We hop on a plane, hopefully sleep and then we've got a show in Vancouver. We've got a day there and then we hit Portland."
"Ok. So we've got time to do what exactly in Seattle?"
"Umm... you girls can shop or whatever, but we'll be at the sound check and the venue pretty much the whole day, we should have time to head out to dinner with you three. Other than that..."
"Ok. I don't know about Christy, she's pretty pissed at us."
"What did y'all do?"
"We had an arguement.... it was... just bad."
"Alright. Girls are weird."
"Yeah, but you're pretty close." She teased, poking him in the ribs.

Zac and Becky were sitting in the front of the bus. Becky put aside her magazine with a heavy sigh.
"Come on, lets do something." She said.
"Alright, but we're stuck on a bus with like a hundred other people not including the driver. What are we going to do?"
"Hmm... good point."
"Want to just sit here?"
"Uh, sure, I guess."
"You don't seem very interested."
"I just... can't stand sitting still for a long time."
"There has got to be something to do." Zac answered.
"I don't know. You've spent 2 months on a bus before."
"Yeah, but then I didn't have a girlfriend. There's more things to do when you got a girlfriend with you."
Becky giggled, giving him a small shove.
"Come on, let's go to the bunks or something. I'm bored." he complained. He stood up and grabbed her hands.
She sprung up and followed him to his bunk, climbing to the top after him.
"Want to watch a movie?"
"Sure, what is there?"
"We got... Matrix, Charlie's Angels, Coyote Ugly... and ummm.... that's it."
"Oh.." Becky said quietly.
"You don't like those?"
"I don't know... I didn't like Matrix that much, and Charlie's Angels and Coyote Ugly seemed like movies guys would prefer because of the girl's in it and everything. I'm sorry."
"No, it's ok..." Zac thought for a minute. He had been planning on trying to kiss her during one of the movies. "Charlie's Angels is really good you know. I went and saw it with a bunch of friends, so there was a couple of girls with us. They liked it."
"Do you have any scary movies?"
"You like horror? Uh... Me too."
She smiled. "Would Taylor or Ike have any?"
"I can check. Be right back." Zac hopped down from the bunk and opened Isaac's bunk curtain, searching franticlly for a decent horror flick.
"What are you doing?" his brother asked from behind him. "That's my bunk and my stuff."
"It’s a girl emergency."
"Bull shit."
"Can't I borrow at least one horror movie?"
"...ugh, you have five minutes," Isaac groaned.
