“EMILY!” Cass squealed as she ran into the bus, throwing her bags onto the floor,
“CASS!” I squealed back giving her a hug,
“It’s been ages!” She complained, holding my arms
“I know!”
“How do you survive on a bus full of smelly guys for months at a time?” she asked, before leaning in closer and whispering, “Especially Rian.” I glanced up at Rian, who was trying to eavesdrop,
“I’ll teach you.” I giggled turning back to her, “Now lets get you unpacked!” She let out a squeal then ran back over to Rian, picking up her bags and giving him a kiss then following me into the bunks.
“So, how are you and Alex going?” she asked as we walked to the back of the bunk area, I gave her a look as if I didn’t know what she was talking about, “I told Rian to tell me everything.”
“Perfect.” Cass was like Jack, fangirling over anything involving Alex and I, “What about you and Ri?”
“Great!” She squealed. Cassadee chose a bottom bunk, she said that she knew she’s roll out of a top one.
“I don’t want to be down the back all by myself!” She complained, sitting in her bunk looking at the empty one opposite her,
“I’m sure Rian won’t mind keeping you company.” I gave her a wink,
“Emily!” She whined throwing a pillow at my face, I laughed before throwing the pillow back at her,
“Move your bunk down here with mine.” She pouted, I sighed,
“Alright.”
“YAAAYYY!”
I grabbed all the stuff out of my bunk and moved it down to the one opposite Cassadee’s,
“What’s going on here?” Alex laughed from the doorway,
“ALEX!” Cassadee squealed giving him a hug, “Emily’s my new bunk buddy.”
“Awh, but she’s my bunk buddy.” Alex complained, making a sad face, I stood up and walked over to him,
“I can still come and hangout in your bunk whenever.” I whispered, Alex wriggled his eyebrows before kissing me on the cheek and walking back into the front lounge. I spun round to see Cass with a childish smile on her face.
“Ooo I like your necklace.” Cass noticed as I bent down over my bunk, exposing my birthday present from Alex,
“Aha thanks, it was my birthday present from Alex.” I replied as she held it in her hands, inspecting it,
“N’awwwh.” She giggled, “Oh that reminds me!” She ran over to her bunk and pulled out a small box from her bag, “your birthday present, from me.”
“Oh Cass, you shouldn’t have.”
“Just open it!” I opened the little box, inside was a stack of leather bracelets, 3 had charms on them, a music note, an infinity symbol and the word love, it would fit in perfectly with the hundreds of bracelets I already had on my wrist.
“Thank you Cass! It’s beautiful!” I wrapped my arms around her, hugging her tightly,
“Anytime beautiful.”
I finished helping Cassadee unpack and arranging my new bunk, Rian then took her out for a ‘welcome back’ dinner, Zack and Jack were asleep already after getting drunk at a local bar, so that left Alex and I on the bus. I just laid in my bunk, staring up at the roof of it, humming songs to myself.
Alex drew back my curtain; I slowly faded my humming to silence,
“Yes?” I asked keeping a straight face,
“I miss my bunk buddy.” He pouted. “And you still haven’t fully paid me for that tour last week.” I tilted my head to the side gesturing that he could come in. Alex rested his forehead against mine, before leaning in and kissing me. I let out a giggle before climbing on top of him, trailing kisses up from his collarbone up to his neck, he let out quiet moans as I did, I bit down slightly in a few places causing him to moan even louder. I laughed as I looked down at him,
“Bitch.” He laughed quietly, before pulling me down onto my back, so that his arms now propped him up above me. Then beginning to do the same as I did to him, like payback, but in reverse, starting on my neck and trailing down to my collarbone, continuing the ‘payback’ he playfully bit just above my collarbone. We heard some mumbling from outside, shit, Rian and Cassadee were back; I pushed Alex out of the bunk, making a thud on the floor,
“Ow.” He silently mouthed rubbing his but, I stuck my tongue out at him them shooed him. He began to walk to his bunk as Rian walked onto the bus,
“Oh hey Lex, what are you doing up?” He asked sounding surprised,
“Had to piss.” Alex answered seriously before climbing into his bunk.
In the morning I quickly showered seeing as everyone was still asleep and got dressed. Cassadee was still asleep in her bunk, I could hear her snoring, she was a cute one. I walked into the kitchen and made myself a coffee. It didn’t take long before everyone else was awake and in the lounge, except Cass and Alex, they always slept in. Jack came in and sat next to me on the couch,
“Have some fun last night?” He giggled,
“What?” He glanced down at my collarbone, my eyes followed his, and there was a nice purple bruise on my collarbone, what a great day to wear a low-cut top,
“It’s, uh, it’s a bug bite.” I laughed awkwardly,
“Morning.” Alex yawned walking into the room, Jack looked up at him, scanning over his body and staring at his neck, then looking back at me with a raised eyebrow, Alex had a few little bruises scattered on his neck. A smirk spread across my face as I shrugged at Jack,
“Horny fuckers.” He muttered under his breath,
“Oi!” I groaned, hitting as hard as I could on the arm,
“Ow! That one actually hurt!” I didn’t reply, I just screwed my face up at him.
