Chad and the other boys of New Found Glory had just finished their set and were heading to the merch table to sign some autographs when he heard someone call his name. He turned around to see who the voice belonged to and was shocked to see Laura and Brynn standing behind him�a smile on each of their faces.
�Laura! What are you doing here?� he said slightly shocked. Chad walked over and took her into his arms almost lifting her off the ground.
Jordan and Cyrus stopped noticing that Chad was no longer walking behind them.
�Chad�� Jordan called over to him. �Merch table!� Jordan pointed to the back of the venue. Then he noticed that Chad was talking to Laura and Brynn.
�Shit!� Cyrus and Jordan said in unison as they walked over to where Chad and the girls were standing.
�Hey!� Brynn smiled as she saw Cyrus and Jordan approaching. She could tell they were both just as shocked to see them as Chad was. �Surprised?�
Jordan shook his head slowly and forced a smile. �Yeah�what are you two doing here? I thought we wouldn�t be seeing you again until the tour was done.�
�We decided that we couldn�t be away from you guys any longer, so we bought tickets, hopped on a plane�and here we are.� Laura informed them.
�Hey guys,� Steve yelled as he approached the group. �We got autographs to sign�� his voiced trailed off as he saw Laura and Brynn.
�Surprise!� the girls said together.
�Shit.� Steve muttered under his breath as he looked nervously at Jordan, Cyrus and Chad for an answer.
�We should probably get going. We promised the fans we�d sign autographs.� Chad said turning to Laura. He placed a kiss on her cheek.
�Alright. Brynn and I are gonna stay up here and watch GC�s set. I�ll meet you by the buses after the show.�
�Oh guys, do me a favor�if you see any of the GC boys�don�t tell them I�m here. I�m gonna surprise Benj at the hotel later tonight after he gives me a call.�
Chad, Jordan, Steve and Cyrus all shook their heads �o.k.�.
�What the fuck are they doing here?� Steve asked Jordan as the four boys walked back to the merch table.
�Surprising us obviously. I�m gonna go back and catch Benj before he goes on stage. I�ll be at the merch table in a little bit.�
Jordan quickly made his way backstage, making sure Brynn and Laura didn�t see him. Once backstage he headed straight for GC�s dressing room. As he approached the door Joel and Billy were walking out with Paul and Benji following behind them.
�Benj!�
Benji stopped and turned around. �Jordan, whats up.�
�Have you talked to Brynn today?�
Benji could tell that Jordan was acting a little funny and that it wasn�t because of the A.D.D. �Not yet. I�m suppose to call her when I get to the hotel tonight after the show.�
�Do me a favor and don�t call her until after you have all of your business taken care of. Ok?� Jordan said with wide eyes.
Benji patted Jordan on the shoulder. �Dude, you need to quit worrying so much. Everything is cool. I�ll call Brynn, when I wanna call Brynn.�
Benji flashed a smile before turning to go to the stage. Jordan watched as Benji walked off. �Dead man walking,� he said to himself.
