“hey amanda,” nick said walking into the dressing room.

Amanda raised an eyebrow, “jeez, just invite yourself into emmas dressing room.”

“well shes my girlfriend so,” he said and finished his sentence by sticking out his tongue at her.

Amanda rolled her eyes, “anyways, what do you want?”

“emma. Do you know where she is?”

“ew and she had to go get some stuff from jen. She’ll be back in a minute.”

“okay,” nick said and sat down on the couch.

“what the hell…I didn’t say you could STAY and wait for her.”

“I know.”

“so what are you doing still sitting here? Go away~~~~” amanda whined.

“nope, its fun bothering you.”

Amanda made a face and threw a pillow at his head.

“hey~~~.” He grabbed another pillow and threw it at her head.

They both glared at each other for a few minutes before each grabbing a pillow and starting to pillow fight.

Emma came into the room and stared at them for a minutes before clearing her throat to get their attention.

Nick looked up and smiled, “hi emma.”

Amanda chose that moment to smack him in the head with her pillow.

“ow~~~”

emma rolled her eyes, “children…”

nick pouted and went over to her, “she hurt my head.”

“aw,” emma said and hugged him, “you poor baby.”

Amanda rolled her eyes, “it was a pillow not a brick.”

He stuck his tongue out at her and went back to pouting for emma.

Emma laughed and kissed him on the cheek, “whats up?”

“nothing, I just wanted to come and see you. What did you go see jen for?”

“I need to give her some pictures and she gave me the mail. This is yours,” she said handing him a stack of envelopes.

He flipped through the stack, “ill read them on the bus later.”

She nodded and handed amanda a few envelopes, “these are yours.”

“yiii, mail,” amanda said taking the envelopes.

Emma rolled her eyes, “the things that bring you joy.”

She started to respond but was interrupted by someone knocking on the door.

“come in,” emma said.

Jen walked in with a bouquet of roses.

Emma looked up, “whoa jen, who sent you those?”

“not me, these are yours emma.”

“me?” she took the card from the flowers and read through it, smiling when she was done.

Amanda glanced at her, “well, who are they from?”

“nick.”

amanda looked at nick, “you bought her flowers? What for?”

“cause every girl deserves flowers, especially my girlfriend,” he said and kissed emma on the cheek.

“Aww, that’s so sweet,” jen said handing emma the flowers.

Nick smiled proudly and emma laughed, “yeah it is. This is about the 3rd bouquet since the tour started last week. Im getting spoiled and hes going broke.”

"but I cant think of a better way to spend my money," he said.

"I can," amanda said. "a car…video games…more video games…"

"that's why im the normal one and your not mandy," he said sticking his tongue out at her.

She glared at him and emma rolled her eyes.

Jen laughed. "have fun with the children," she said as she walked out of the room.

"thanks jen," emma said sarcastically. She noticed amanda was still glaring at nick and gently steered him out the door.

"im going to help nick finish getting ready. Ill be back in a bit."

"bye mandy," nick said smiling innocently.

Amanda glared at him and threw a pillow at his head as emma hurried to push him out of the room.

"hey amanda, where are the guys?" jen asked peeking into the bus.

"which guys?"

"nick and aj. Those are the only two missing and we cant leave until they get on a bus. ANY bus."

"they went to the gas station across the street to get snacks. They'll be back in a second," emma said heading back to her bunk.

"alright, thank ya," she said and headed back to her bus.

Emma glanced out the window and saw aj and nick heading back to the bus. She got an idea and smirked.

"amanda, come here," emma whispered from her bunk.

amanda rolled her eyes and went over to her,"what?"

"shh!!!"

"jeez...sorry."

emma shook her head,"i got an idea. do you want to play a trick on aj and nick?"

"of course."

"k look," she pulled a bag of tiny plastic spiders from her bag(like the spider rings).

amanda smirked,"what do we do?"

emma emptied half the bag into her hand,"put them in ajs bunk, ill put mine in nicks."

amanda nodded and went to work while emma did the same. a few minutes later nick and aj come back onto the bus.

emma smiled,"hi."

nick smiled and kissed her on the cheek,"hey, whats up?"

emma shook her head,"nothing, did you get what you needed?"

"yup but im beat from the show so im going to take a nap."

aj pouted, just for the sake of pouting,"me too."

amanda tried not to laugh,"okay, we'll wake you in a bit."

nick glanced at emma,"you want to come with me?"

"hmm? oh im fine. maybe later."

"okay," he kissed her on the cheek and went to his bunk. him and aj climbed into their bunks and within 30 seconds they heard screaming and cursing.

emma started laughing but amanda quickly covered her mouth. aj was shrieking like a girl and nick was cursing like a sailor.

they both climbed from the bunks.

"GET THEM OFF ME!!!!" aj yelled/screamed.

emma and amanda couldnt hold it off anymore and started laughing hysterically. nick glanced at them and raised an eyebrow.

he walked over to emma and picked her up,"were you playing a joke on me princess?"

she couldnt stop laughing but did shake her head.

"yeah okay," he carried her to the back lounge tossed her on the couch and started to tickle her.
