A Lesson Never Learned

Brooke jumped up and down on my Prada suitcase to squash it's contents as much as she could while Dani and I tried our best to fasten the clasp. Before long, we finally got the case shut. Brooke jumped down and breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad that's over" she said as she headed for the door, only for Dani to grab her arm and spin her back around.

"Oh no, you're not getting out it that easily!" she exclaimed, throwing Brooke towards me. "getting out of what" Brooke asked innocently, Dani proceeded "How come you didn't fuck Ben? you actually passed on an offer of sex? Are you ill?"

Brooke just shrugged "I just wasn't up for it" as the words left her lips me and Dani exchanged looks of disbelief, "I grabbed her shoulders and shook her lightly, "Ok, who are you, and what have you done with my sex pest of a best friend?!?" I demanded, she just laughed at me and sighed, "Fine" she started to admit "In all honesty, I couldn't be fucked to well...fuck, I was all fucked out after a surprise visit from Mr Todd Banner" she smiled, Dani stared at her "Woah, as in that rich ass politician guy?" Brooke nodded.

I gazed at her with keen interest. As she started,
"There's something to be said for successful married men. They're discreet, and they have a great deal to lose. Sometimes that makes for a wonderful arrangement."

" Brookelle Carson" I replied in a faux scalding tone, "You home-wrecking slut."
She laughed triumphantly,. "actually, I've never wrecked a home....but I am a bit of a slut" she giggled, "And don't we know it!" Dani claimed loudly.

Once we finished giggling, we left my case and bags on my bed and returned to the remains of a mini pool party the others had started. Stepping out the patio doors, I couldn't help but laugh at the scene in front of me, Hayley and Cameron were sitting on the edge of the pool dangling their legs into the water, talking about something un interesting, Sam and Kayla were engaging in a splash fight, a very flirty one at that, even thought they've been dating for 2 years, Amor and Danny were dry humping in the corner of the pool while tongue wrestling, Mmmmm..yummy not. Ben and Jessi were on the sun loungers kissing and holding hands..wow, so much for first impressions. And James..well.. he made the picture.

James was sitting on his own, dangling his legs into the pool and looking at the sky. I admired his chest tattoos, and admitted to myself, he had quite a pretty face.

Dani, interrupted my thoughts though "hey, Brooke's gunna drive me home, call me before you leave for tour, I know it'll be 5am, but call me anyway, so I can say goodbye, even if it's only over the phone" she smiled and hugged me before proceeding to leave the house with Brooke.

I decided to Put James out of his misery, I walked up behind him and covered his eyes. he smiled and wondered aloud "Hmmm, who's that I wonder?" I couldn't help but giggle at his response, as I uncovered his eyes and sat next to him "Having fun I see" I smiled as he laughed at the statement "Is it that obvious"

He smiled as he took in my bikini clad body. There was a time when I never even owned a bikini, when I was an ugly and chubby unfortunate teenager. That was before I blossomed, the fat disappeared, my face changed, I was suddenly blessed with a great figure, a great cleavage and an attractive face. I'm not gonna lie, I'm hot!

I noticed no tour preparations were being made, all the guys were just sucking face with their girlfriends instead. "Oi, assholes, shouldn't you be, oh I don't know, getting ready to go on tour in like 8 hours?"

They all gave me clueless looks before Danny replied for them "hey, the girl's can only come on tour with us for a max of 3 days at a time, so we gotta spend as much time with them before we leave, that we can" he grinned cockily, before turning back to practically fucking Amor in my pool. I simply rolled my eyes and wandered into the house.

After I re-dressed myself and grabbed a coffee, i thought maybe it would be a good idea to get some sleep before leaving for tour in the morning, so once I re-changed into some PJ's, cleared my bed of bags and my suitcase, removed my make-up and brushed my teeth, I climbed happily into bed.

--------------------------------------------------

When I awoke to the sound of music from my blackberry, I regretting setting the alarm. I wiped the sleep from my eyes and switched off the alarm ringing from my phone, suddenly, I heard a groggy groan from behind me, I span round to see a shirtless James half asleep next to me "James..why the fuck are you in my godamn bed?" I demanded, "well all the guys took up all your guestrooms and with the girls here it's not like I could share rooms with any of them so I kinda crashed here..sorry" he smiled sheepishly and got up from my bed, I smiled as he headed for my bathroom. i took the opportunity to turn over and enjoy a minutes more rest.

As I lay back down I caught James' scent from the pillows next to me. he smelled good.
"Ugh, what time is it?" James questioned as he re-entered my room "4am" I replied sleepily "I'm gunna take a shower" I declared before getting up, grabbing the clothes I had set for the day and wandered into my bathroom for my last hot shower in my fantastic en suite shower. After I'd showered, shaved my legs, moisturized, brushed my teeth, washed my face, applied my makeup and got dressed it was 4:45am.

Grabbing my case and bags, I rushed down the stairs to see a nervous looking, very tattooed guy yelling at the band to hurry their asses up. However, he didn't seem to be having much luck as the band were sitting around eating breakfast, not caring.

Wow, this is why they needed another assistant tour manager. And this is also why they need a woman for the job. I thrusted my luggage at the tattooed guy, I assumed was Matt, the stand in tour manager, and ordered him to go put it in the right places on the bus and that I would handle the guys, he wished me luck and got to doing what he was told.

I stood in front of the guys and whistled as loud as I could, the guys all stopped, shut up, and stared at me. "Now, get your fat arses on that tour bus before I have to drag them there." I said in a raised voice, they all continued to stare at me "....NOW!!" I demanded. As soon as the word left my lips the guys were rushing about grabbing their jackets and shoes and rushed out onto the bus. Wow..tour's going to be fun..
