Me and the guys make a circle on the floor. Chad goes to the fridge to get a beer bottle.

I swear if he makes me do or ask me something inappropriate , I'm giving him the silent treatment.

He comes back and sits down. He places the bottle in the middle .

Chad spins the bottle.

It lands on Flea.

"Truth or dare?" Chad says with a smirk.

Flea rolls his eyes. "Dare. "

"I dare you to take your clothes off, but put a sock on your dick."

I giggle.

Flea shrugs his shoulders and gets up. He starts unbuckling his pants.

My eyes widen. "Flea, not here dummy! "

He chuckles. "I just wanted to see your reaction. "

He leaves to the bathroom. And Chad just leaves the bus for a smoke.

I pull out my phone from my pocket. My mom has been calling me and texting me.

Mom: Please don't leave. I know that Anthony will take care of you but you're going to leave me behind? And what about your future?

Me: Excuse me, mother? You're the person that hasn't been paying attention to your fucking daughter for the past 11 years!
So yes, I will leave you behind because I actually have friends that are to be considered family. Goodbye mother.

And with that, I blocked her. Not just from my phone but from life.

I put my phone in my pocket and stare at the floor.

"Um, Rose? Are you okay?", John asks me.

I feel a tear strolling down my face.

"Not really. My mom wants me to come back to the house. "

John moves closer to me and hugs me tightly, but not enough to hurt me.

"It'll be okay , we're here for you and Anthony most certainly loves you. "

He gives me a kind smile. Then leans in to try to kiss me in a fast motion.

We both separate quickly realizing what we were doing. Thank God nobody saw that.

The door swings open.

"Guys look! " Chad says.

Flea, standing in front of us , with no clothes except for a sock on his dick.

"Holy shit. "

I am shocked. I heard the guys doing it on stage, but this takes the prize.

"Guys, I have something to say. " I respond.

They all look at me. "I am really grateful to have found Anthony and meet you guys. You guys are my role models and I'm just lucky to be with you guys on tour. And." I stop mid sentence.

I start to sob. They surround me and we embrace. I feel someone tap my shoulder and I turn around.

Anthony.

"I love you. "

"I do too. I love all of you like my family. "

We all smile and continue to hug.

Chad speaks up, "Um, sorry to disturb this lovely moment, but Flea is naked."

I forgot that. Everyone bursts out laughing .
