"Nick, are you alright?" I sat on the chair in the corner of the dressing room my kid brother was occupying whilst trying to pry at his shoelaces. "Need some help?"

"No, really I've got it." This caused me to chuckle at his contorted facial expression. He did NOT "got it".

"You sure?"

"IT"S A STINKIN SHOELACE!" he cried. "It shouldn't be so difficult!"

"Sounds more like woman troubles to me." I laughed and moved to stand and help him but he just through the closest thing near him at me, which happened to be a hairbrush. I almost dodged it, but the impact to my right arm told me he didn't miss. "Hey! No need for violence kiddo!"

"Shut up Joseph your not helping!"

"I was trying to!"

"But your not!"

"What is going on in here?" Both of us turned towards the door as Kevin peered in. "What the heck you two, we have a concert in less than five minutes, do you mind not causing havoc before hand?"

"But Kev! That's no fun!" I pouted. This received an eye roll and Kevin left the room with a small laugh. HAH! I knew he found me funny.

"Nick, let me help you with that."

"FINE!" he tossed the shoe at me, which I caught and began to try and undo the laces. They were to knotted up and pulled tight to get apart so I took the scissors from my brothers back and but them off, taking a lucky shoelace I had tied around my ankle and re lacing my brothers shoe. Examining it, it seemed pretty well…usable now. I handed Nick his shoe and he seemed to stare at it in amazement.

"I didn't think of that." He muttered before smiling and pulling on his shoe and standing. "Thanks Joe."

"No problem Nick-o." I patted him on the back as he finished getting ready and we did our concert. I don't know if anyone else noticed, but when we ate dinner at a nearby diner, Kevin wasn't present. We all kind of went off and sat in different places in the empty place and I decided I should at least make sure Kevin was all right.

"Where are you going?" Miley's voice held a curious tone and I raised my brow at her and smirked with a shrug.

"You know. Jacking off, the usual."

Her face scrunched in an 'I SO did not need to know that' sort of way, which left a satisfying grin on my face. I loved messing with Miley and my brothers because it was so…satisfying.

"You know he was kidding right?" Nick laughed, looking at Miley and Emily.

"Sure I did." She rolled her eyes and went back to her French fries while I decided to take this moment to leave the diner and head back to the tour bus. 'I hope he's not sick or something.'

I moved my hand to open the door of the bus when I heard something. Music perhaps? I couldn't help but felt my stomach turn as I opened the door slowly, stepping into the bus. At first I couldn't recognize the voice, but then as I further made my way through the back of the bus, I hid in the kitchen, listening to the voice. The guitar…that I recognized…Kevin.
