“Are you staying for the show?” Andy asked. We were all sitting around backstage after dinner. I kinda felt like we were seated around a camp fire, our chairs made a wide circle and it just reminded me of the times that Alex and I used to sit around the chiminea in his backyard roasting marshmallows. I looked at Kerry and shrugged.
“I don’t think so. I need to get ready for work tomorrow.” I said.
“Yeah me too,” Kerr nodded.
“Aw alright, that’s too bad.” The Jonas guys were off doing a meet and greet and Jordin Sparks was doing some press so it was just the six of us hanging out. I smiled seeing how well Kerry and Alex were getting along. They seemed to be lost in their own conversation. I looked over and saw Jason playing around with his guitar.
“Hey, do you mind if I take a look at that?” I asked pointing to the guitar.
“Not at all,” He handed it to me and I rested it in my lap. I started playing a familiar tune and after a minute or two Jason moved his chair closer to mine.
“You’re really good, you know that?” He said when I finished.
“Thanks! I kind of taught myself how to play a long time ago and eventually took lessons, I don’t really play much anymore but if I get the chance I will.”
“You taught yourself? That’s amazing.” We fell into a comfortable conversation about music. It seemed that Jason and I had a lot of the same interests.
It was really great getting to know these guys better. I could tell that we would all be great friends. Jason had gotten up to put his guitar back in the dressing room and Michael immediately took his seat.
“So some of us might be heading over to a bar after the show before we head back to the hotel, do you think you and Kerry would like to join us?” He asked leaning in towards me.
“I guess we could stop by for a bit.” I said with a smile on my face.
“Great,” He winked and got up just as Jason was about to whack him upside the head for stealing his seat.
“Yo chill! I was just talking to Livia. Plus…you never called fives.” Mike said. Jason laughed and shook his head, sitting back down in his seat.
“So what do you think about meeting up with the guys later?” I asked Kerry as I pulled into the parking lot of her apartment building.
“We should definitely go! I think it’ll be fun.”
“Okay, cool. So I’ll text Michael and let him know.” Kerry smiled and nudged me with her elbow.
“Michael, eh?” She said wiggling her eyebrows at me.
“Oh shut up. We just met Kerr, jeeze…”
“Don’t pretend like you don’t like him.”
“Oh well what about you and Alex? The two of you seem to be really into each other.” Kerry glared at me with pink cheeks. “That’s not a bad thing!” She laughed and opened up the car door.
“I’ll see you later. Let me know what time we’re meeting the guys.”
“Sure thing,”
Around nine I figured that Honor Society would be done with their performance so I sent Michael a text.
“When and where are we to be meeting you guys?”

I called Kerry to let her know that the guys wanted to meet in a half hour.
“Okay, but is it alright if I come over soon? I’m having trouble deciding between two outfits.”
“That’s fine, see you soon.” I got myself changed and did my make-up all before Kerry arrived. I decided I didn’t want to get too dressed up so I had on a simple black top with a bubble bottom hem and wooden beads on the neckline, black skinny jeans, and a pair of flats. I ran a brush through my brunette hair, deciding to leave it natural instead of doing it up, put on a little bit of eyeliner and blush, layered a few gold chain necklaces around my neck, and I was ready to go.
“Okay, I can’t decide if I want to wear this,” Kerry said as they laid out a dress on my bed. “Or this…” She unfolded a pair of jeans and a tube top and laid those on my bed also.
“Shoes?” I asked. Kerry pointed to her feet; she was wearing a pair of nice flip-flops. I nodded and looked back at the outfits.
“The dress,” I said pointing to it. “Alex will like that.” I giggled and left Kerry in my bedroom to change. I helped with her make-up and hair and soon we were out the door. Luckily everyone on tour was staying close by so we didn’t have much of a drive to get to the bar.
As soon as Kerry and I stepped inside we were both consumed by the large crowd of people inside. Neither of us could really see over everybody to find where the guys were so we just went up to the bar and ordered ourselves some drinks. While we were standing around some guy came up to us, obviously drunk, and started talking to Kerry.
“Help,” She mouthed to me. Andy suddenly appeared out of nowhere and wrapped an arm around Kerry’s waist.
“Hey baby. Who’s this?” He asked giving the man a disgusted look. As soon as the drunk was gone Andrew removed his arm from around Kerry and the three of us started laughing.
“Thanks for that, I owe you.”
“Oh no, it’s not a problem. I lost a bet so I was just walking over to order everyone a drink and here I see this guy hanging over you.”
“Where is everyone else?” I asked. He turned around and pointed towards the back corner of the bar.
“They’re sitting in a booth back there.”
“Okay,” Kerry and I grabbed our drinks and headed in the direction Andrew had pointed. The crowd thinned out as we walked towards the back. Jason, Alex and Mike were sitting in a booth in the very back corner.
“Look who’s here.” Alex said as we approached the table.
“Hey,” Kerry said as she slid into the booth beside him.
“Andy just texted me, he needs help with the drinks. I’ll be right back.” Jason said looking at his phone. Once he was up I took his spot beside Michael.
“So Alex, I called my mom earlier and she keeps asking when she’s going to see you again.” I said.
“Yo really?” He chuckled. “Tell her that as soon as this tour is over I’m coming back to visit you two.”
“Alright, I’ll let her know. She’ll be so happy.”
