I Need a Home Sweet Home, to Call My Own

I sprayed a a small amount of hair spray into my hair, and walked out of the bathroom.
"Took you long enough!" Sam said.
I giggled. "Shut up, jerk." I commented, as I sat on his lap. Sam always has been a...a big brother type of figure. He smiled.
"You, my friend, need to get off of me. We have to go preform." He stated. I sighed.
"Fine." I said, getting off of him. Everyone stood up,and walked. off the bus. Ben and I last. He put his arm around my shoulders,and pulled me closer to kiss my cheek. I giggled again, and layed my head on his shoulder. We walked to the AA stage, and the thought of Rena crossed my mind. I looked around, knowing that we where going to pass the Cherri Bomb signing table. Once I seen it in the distance, I noticed Miranda was running over to me. I stopped, and Ben looked at me curiously. She pulled me into one of the tightest hugs I have ever gotten.
"Ryan!" She screamed.
I smiled. "Miranda!" I mimicked her.
"Rena wants me to give you this." She said, handing me a piece of paper.
I took it and thanked her. It sucks that she was the only one that was allowed to talk to me because she's the oldest. Ugh. I feel 16 all over again.
"Alright, well I have to go. Text me later?" She asked. I nodded, and hugged her again.
"Love you!" She shouted, walking back to her signing table.
I smiled, and mimicked her once again. I looked up at Ben, and he smiled. I returned it, and we continued walking. I opened the folded paper that Miranda handed me, and another paper, folded up the exact way, fell out. I grabbed it, and giggled again. She was such a nerd. I looked at the first line of each paper, checking to see which one was first. Once I had figured it out, we were at the AA stage. I gave the guys a hug, even Danny, and they ran onstage. Danny first, Then Ben, Cameron, Sam, and then James. I crossed my legs, and sat in the grass. I started to read the note. My name was written across the top, with a beautiful design around it. She diked to doodle. I had figured that out the first week i had met her. The note read:

Ryan,

So, I talked to the girls about it, and they said that they would help me convince my parents to let you talk to us. I hate sneaking around like this, and I know you do too. But I can't wait to see you later today!! I promise, we can have sleep overs and all that shit soon. :) But we just have to be patient. My mom is slowly agreeing with me. That your not as bad as you seem. Just because your older than me. My dad will be the harder one to convince. But we can do it. Promise. And its irrelevant, but HOLY SHIT HAVE YOU SEEN DRAKE CHRISTOPHER!!!??!!!!!! He's Catching My Clouds. ;) So how's things with Danny? I heard about the break up. :( Sorry babe. I'm Here for you. Remember that.Text me the REAL story, when you get a chance. I hate rumors. What I've heard so far, is that he cheated on you. That's it really. He's such a dick. And, correct me if I'm wrong, WHAT'S UP WITH YOU AND BEN!!!!!?!!! I'm just being your best friend who wants to know everything. :) Nia has a crush on Sam!! Shh! Don't tell anyone! :3 Cherri Bomb is going in the studio next week, and I'll send you the first copy of our new song. The one that has yet to be named. :) Well, I gotta go practice babe. Text me when you can. Love you!!! <3

-Rena

I smiled. She was such a nerd. BUT, She was my nerd. And she was perfect. I listen to Asking Alexandria for a while, while checking my phone every ten minutes to see if it was time for me to on head over to the CYC stage. The guys had taken a break, and I was greeted by sweaty hugs. I verified them that i would be back on the bus by 10, but I was planning to steal Rena for a while. I checked to make sure the note she wrote me, was still tucked in my back pocket, and kissed Ben on the cheek, before walking to the CYC stage. I noticed Drake still wasn't onstage, so I walked up to him, and asked for a hug. Because I'm hardcore and I like hugs. He laughed.
"Are you a fan?" He asked.
I smiled. "Kind of. My best friend has a major crush on you, but you have to keep it a secret." I replied, holding my index finger up to my lips, signaling to keep it a secret. I love doing things like this, and then they find out she's only 14. Funniest shit ever. But she thinks it's funny too, otherwise, i wouldn't ever do it. He gave me one last hug, and walked on stage. I turned around, and looked for Rena. Once I spotted her Multi-colored hair, I ran over too her, and she did the same.
"RyRy!!!" She screamed. I loved my nickname. It's unique. Like her.
"Rena babe!!!" I screamed back.
She giggled, and pulled away, kissing my cheek. I mimicked her, and she gave me a toothy grin.
"So, who's with you today?" I asked, knowing her Dad wouldn't let her go anywhere alone.
"Nia." She replied, still smiling.
I got an idea. I walked over and pulled her into an embrace. She did the same.
"Hey Nia? I Know someone who likes you, And I think you should hang out with him while I steel Rena away for a while." I stated, remembering that she had a crush on Sam. She smiled with glee.
"Really?" She asked. I smiled, and told her to hang out on the AA bus.

***********

"He doesn't really like her does he." Rena commented, after she had left.
I gave her an innocent smile. "She'll forgive me." I stated, knowing that she wasn't one to hold a grudge. I pulled out my phone, and texted Sam, hoping the show was over.

Sammy? Do me a favor? :D -Ryan
What the fuck do you want me to do now bitch? :P -Sam
Act like you have a crush on Nia until I get back? ^_^ -Ryan
Isn't she 15? -Sam
Yep. But do it for me? Please? -Ryan.
Rena again? Uh. The things I do for you. -Sam
Yay!! Love you! -Ryan

"Alright! So, Mall first?" I asked excitedly, shoving my phone in my back pocket.
She nodded, and we walked to the mall, careful not to be spotted by her parents until we where off of the stage base. Thank god Miranda was with them. Otherwise, we would have been fucked. i love these girls. So much. <3 And with that, we where off to the mall.
