" Nick that was so not fair, you jack ass" Molly and Nick were sitting on the floor of Nick's bus as they went head to head in a battle of NHL 99 on Playstation.
"You suck baby..." Nick grinned as he took the faceoff.
"Well I swal..I mean shut up" Molly had been tempted to throw out a comeback but she had to remeber that she was supposed to be the adult on this tour. She laughed as Nick looked at her with a sly grin.
Molly was into her second week of the tour and she was loving it. She seemed to be getting closer to Nick as he was the same age as her brother and he helped her take her mind off being homesick. She had recently begun spending alot of time on Nick and Brian's bus as Skylar and Kevin had begun to crack under the pressure of being together on a small bus for hours on end.
"Well the next stop is in 5 minutes and I really should go back to my bus and see if it is still in one peice. Those 2 are at each other's throats non stop" Molly called the other buses and advised them of the pit stop and climbed out of the bus as the bus stopped.
"Hi AJ, did you cause any trouble?" Molly called after AJ as he got off the band's bus with a huge grin on his face.
"Let's just say that their bus has a new air freshner, it's called PU AJ" and he laughed as Tommy the keboardist got off the bus holding his nose and looking disgusted.

Molly and Skylar were eating their sandwiches when Nick and Kevin came over and sat down beside them.
"Can we interuppt or is it Chick Bitch time?" Kevin asked his girlfriend.
"No you can sit here, about before I am sorry baby" Skylar kissed Kevin and the two smiled.
"Now I know why you want to be on our bus" Nick groaned as the two kissed.
"Hey Nick, slide your fat ass over so the rest of us can sit down" AJ punched Nick's arm as Howie and him walked over to the group.
Molly felt the lump in her throat get bigger as she saw Nick's hurt expression "For God's sake AJ to you really have to be so insensitive" Molly threw down her half eaten sandwhich and walked away from the group.
The group was silent as they watched her storm off. Brian finally broke the silence "Where did that outburst come from?"
~~**~~
"I am such an idiot...good job Molly let's draw more attention to yourself" Molly was in the bus trying to catch her breath. She hated when the guys teased Nick about his weight, the look of hurt and embarassment on Nick's face was the same look that had been permanent on her face in high school. She stood up as someone knocked on the door.
"Molly? Are you alright?" Howie's concerned face peeked into the bus.
"I am fine" Molly stormed by him and almost bowled him over as she walked out of the bus.
~~**~~
Molly approached the table where AJ was sitting alone, finishing his lunch as the rest of the group played some basketball in the parking lot.
"Alex.....Alex I am sorry for screaming at you, you have every right to be angry but I just wanted to say I am sorry" Molly watched as his rigid posture and his angry look softened into a smile "I told you it's AJ and no problem. You have to realise that I tease Nick like that all the time, he knows I am kidding, friends?" AJ made a puppy dog face and held out his hand.
Molly smiled and shook his hand "OH MYGOD AJ PUT ME DOWN" she yelled as AJ picked her up and spun her around as he laughed.

Skylar was sitting on the couch watching the endless road that seemed to stretch into the horizon. She looked at the journal that was sitting in her lap and she started to write.
"We have been fighting so much. It seems that I can't say anything without him snapping at me. Sometimes I lie awake and watch the man who I waited so long for, sleep. He has taken to sleeping with his hand clenched, the hand that used to reach for me and find it's resting place on my bare back , now recoils and clenches."
"What has happened to us? One day we are talking about the future that we are planning and the next we are spewing insults at one another. Maybe the long days and never ending highways have taken a toll on us. I can't understand how our love could endure while we were thousands of miles away from each other but now that we are in each other's arms it falls apart."
"Sometimes his kisses feel forced and that hurts me more than if he wasn't around to kiss me. The lips that used to feel like feathers against my own, sometimes feel like stone. The breath that once blew warm air to my heart now chills it like the cold and dready winds that I longed to leave behind and escape in Ottawa. How can we make it right again?"
"It has only been one month...will we have a relationship left to try to
salvage by the time the tour is finished?"
