As I opened my eyes, I realized it was morning.
everyone was awake except for me.
I was laying on Noah's chest as he was watching tv.  the other guys were being respectfully quiet.
"Good morning" Nicholas says as I sit up. " how was your sleep?"
"Great, I sit up." I look around for a moment. Stretch and yawn, sit back against the head board next to Noah laying my head on his shoulder.
"you have mad bedhead baby." He laughs.
"Normally I would be pissed at that statement but it's too fucking early Noah." I say unamused.
"I'm still so tired. " I say. "five more minutes and then I'll get up." I say laying back down beside of Noah.
He meets me under the sheets. Stealing kisses from my shoulders. he wraps his lanky arms around my waist pulling me tight.
"Five more minutes and then we have to get ready." He state.
"Yes sir" I yawn.
*20 minutes later.*
I got up and showered. Then, I started packing up to get back on the bus.
"I'm gonna tell my dad today." I say turning to Noah. "all the guys already know. He is the only one who doesn't"
"okay, good luck with that." He smiles.
"You are coming with me." I see his face drop.
"Fine." he agrees. "But I'm playing fall guys after though."
"Deal. Now come on." I grab his hand and drag him over to my dads hotel.
"daddd" I yell looking at Noah.
"WHATS UP KID. Noah. " he laughs
"So I need to talk to you." I say.
He puts down his phone.
"What about." He asks.
"well, me and Noah." I start. I felt almost sick. I was a literal adult and I was still nervous to tell my dad that I had a boyfriend. I squeeze my eyes closed. "Me and Noah are dating and I hope you are cool with that."
"I already knew." He said.
"Wha- you did?" I ask.
"Yeah, Noah here asked me like two weeks ago if he could ask. I gave him a good luck and sent him on his way." he sits back.
"YOU KNEW THAT DAD KNEW" I turn around and punch Noah in the chest.
"and you are cool with it?" I ask.
"yeah. I would've told him no if I wasn't. You guys are full grown adults." Dad laughs.
"I HATE YOU." I point at Noah.
He laughs and grabs my hand.
"bye dad. Love you." I wave.
"I can't believe you just went along with that." I laugh.
we get our things back down to the busses and get settled in.
"Well, I think that you should move your stuff over here. Like stay on the bus with me." Noah suggests.
"Wait are you asking me to stay with you?" I say.
"Yes. that's exactly what I'm saying." he laughs.
"Yes absolutely. But will the other guys say?" I asked.
"they told me to ask." He says as I see Nicholas, Jolly and folio pop out of the door of the bus.
"We did. We like having you around." Folio says.
"Yeah, you aren't half bad lil." Nicholas follows.
Jolly just smiles.
I leave noah and tackle folio into a hug.
"I love you guys. If you guys will have me, I'll stay" I smile.
"GROUP HUG." jolly yells.
I get tackled by three other bodies.
"Will you let me go, I can't breathe" I wheeze.
we had gotten settled and ready to leave. we have 8 shows in Texas.
The boys were on the couch playing fall guys, which consisted of Noah SCREAMING at folio.
I sat in Noah's room at the back of the bus putting away my things.
I walk to the couch and sit next to Noah. Wrapping my arm around his and leaning my head on his shoulder.
"hey baby. Get your things put away?"
"Yeah, I'm cold." I whine.
"Do you want my hoodie?" He asks.
"please." I say as he takes off his red hoodie.
I stand up and slip it over me.
"It looks better on you." He smiles. " better?"
I nod. I sit back down and pull my feet up with my favorite book.
I had a knack for classic books and stories.
"Watcha reading?" Nicholas asks from across the room.
"Beowulf." I respond and continue reading.
"Good choice. I haven't read that since highschool" Nicholas says.
"I've re read it like eight times. I like it. It's kind of like a comfort show without watching tv." I say flipping a page.
I sat up against Noah and across from nick, just reading. 
the sun begins to set and the moaning and groaning of hunger starts to fill the bus.
"let's make dinner then." I suggest.
I go to the fridge and take out what we had purchased the day before.
"Nic start chopping these." I hand folio a bag of cherubs. "In half , like this. "
"jolly, can you peel theses. Nicholas can you slice this spinach for me?" I ask. "NOWAHHHHH."
"Yes?" He stands up.
"MUSIC SIR. " I say. I wash my hands and start slicing chicken.
"What are we making anyway?" folio asks.
"Tuscan chicken and rice. You cool with that?" I turn.
"Absolutely. I 100% trust that you can cook." Folio looks at me mortified.
"Good." I hear music come over the speakers.
Sweater weather by the neighborhood. okay Noah.
"What do you need me to do?" Noah  asks.
"Sit there and look pretty" I laugh.
"that's all?" he asks with his eyebrows furrowed.
I start putting the ingredients into a pan to fry.
"Can I stand here then?" Noah suggests. He stood behind me, with his hands wrapped around my waist. We swayed with the music.
"There is an easier way to do that ya know." Noah wraps his hand around mine as I hold onto the pan.
"Here-" he shakes the pan flipping the chicken.
"Okay, I see you babe. Alright, I'm ready for the rest. "
The boys hand me the rest of the add ins and the dish is nearly done.
"Alright-" I say adding cheese. "Go sit." I demand.
I make each of them a plate and set the table.
"Bon appetite " I smile.
"this is FANTASTIC" jolly says in between chews.
I look at the others.
"Damn I don't think I've ever seen nic and Noah eat greens." Nicholas laughs.
"thanks guys." I obliged. dad refused to let me cook since he went vegan.
The guys and I joked around the table and cleaned up. I decided to get ready for bed.
As I looked in the mirror I noticed that Nicholas was standing in the door way.
"Hey, what's up?" I ask.
"Nothing, the food was really good. just wanted to thank you." He says.
"You're welcome. I enjoyed chilling with all of you and talking to you guys." I note.
He studies me for a moment.
"You are naturally so beautiful. " he leans in the doorway. "Noah really likes you. you make him better. I hope you stay." He backs away with a slight smile.
I let those words sit in my head for a second.
"I hope you stay."
What would make me leave?
