maybe she was psycho. maybe she was crazy.

but all she knew is right now, she wouldn't dream of being anywhere else.

amber awoke to an arm wrapped protectively around her, and she smiled when she saw jake still sound asleep, breathing softly.

they both had trailed back to the tour bus together, cautious of josh who was asleep in his bunk, and pair climbed into amber's bunk together, soon falling asleep in each others embrace.

there was shouting in the bus between sam and nick, and jake began to wake up as the bus began to move.

"good morning." amber whispered.

jake groaned and nuzzled his face into ambers neck, hugging her tighter.

"i take it you don't want to get out of bed yet?" amber asked.
"just five more minutes." jake mumbled.
"okay." amber said, chuckling.

she then ran her fingers through jakes hair and he said something quietly.

"what was that?" amber asked.
"keep doing that." he said louder.
amber then stopped and jake groaned, "amberrrrr!"
she laughed, "alright, alright."

after a few minutes of running her fingers through his hair and playing with it softly, jake then sat up slightly, looking down to amber.

"good morning." he said.
"good morning." she said, smiling.
"what are we doing today?" he asked.
"we are driving to our next venue because we have a gig tonight." amber said.
"so we're stuck in the tour bus all day?" jake asked and amber nodded.
jake smiled and laid back down.
"if it means i get to be like this with you all day then i don't mind." jake said.

amber smiled as looked over to jake, pushing loose strands of hair out of his face.

"i'm gonna go make us breakfast, meet you at there in ten." amber said, sliding her way out of the bunk, but she felt a hand against her waist and he pulled her back closer to him.
"don't go." jake said.
"jake, come on..." amber said with a laugh.
jake eventually let go and dropped his bottom lip, pouting to amber.
she rolled her eyes.
"i'll see you out there." she said.
"okay." jake finally gave in, closing his eyes again.

amber then looked down to jakes lips, wanting ever so badly to kiss them.

she wondered why he hadn't made a move yet. last night seemed like the perfect moment...she also wondered if he was going to ask her on a date, because it wouldn't seem right if they just acted how they are now, not really having a label.

what happens if he doesn't want a label? amber asked herself.

for all she knew jake could only want amber for certain things, and not want an actual relationship.

amber frowned and shook those thoughts out of her head. everything thing is fine, perfect even. amber thought to herself.

amber then perked her head out of the curtain to make sure no one was watching and when the coast was clear she hoped out of his bunk and walked down the hallway, seeing danny and nick eating breakfast.

"good morning." amber said happily.
"well aren't you chipper." nick said, then taking a sip of his coffee.

amber smiled to him before flicking the kettle and opening the mini fridge, getting whatever she could to make a suitable breakfast for her and jake.

"amber..." nick said.
"hmm?" she asked as she popped two pieces of bread in the toaster.
"do you know about the new astonishing revelation of taylor and his lady friend?" nick asked.
"you mean emily?" amber asked turning around and nick nodded, "i don't know anything else than then spending time together on the tour bus yesterday and being late for our interview." she added.
nick raised his eyebrows as he took another sip from his coffee mug.
"what?" amber asked.
"she's joined him again." he whispered, pointing to his bunk.
she rolled her eyes, "i suddenly regret amending the rule."
he chuckled, "maybe it's a good thing."
"what makes you think that?" she asked.
"well it seems serious and well... he needs to move on." nick explained.
"yeah he really did need to move on from allison." amber mumbled.
"that's not who he's moving on from..." he whispered.
