Beep, Beep, Beep!
Lauren slowly opened her eyes, and threw her alarm clock against the wall. 'Shut up!' she said as it still continued beeping. She slowly got up and crawled to her clock. She pushed the off button and lowered herself to the ground. It was 6 o'clock in the morning, and today the Apocalyptour would be starting. Lauren groaned and closed her eyes again. After a while, the door opened and Julia's head popped up around the corner. 'Lo, it's time' she called, and grinned as she saw that Lauren had fallen asleep again. She walked to the bathroom and filled a small glass with ice cold water. She tiptoed back to Lauren's room and lowered herself to the ground. She threw the water right in Lauren's face and made a run for it. 'JULIA, YOU LITTLE SHIT!' Lauren came crashing down the hall and fell over her own enormous suitcase. 'Argh...' she groaned as she rubbed her foot. 'I'm sorry Lo, but you really had to get up' Julia screamed from the kitchen. 'I know, I know, but you could have done it in a kinder way, you know' Lauren mumbled. She stood up and walked to the bathroom. She quickly took a shower and put on the clothes that they had selected for her. Bordeaux-red shorts with a white blouse. While drying her hair, she made weird faces in the mirror. Today was the day. All these months of rehearsal would finally show themselves. Julia and Lauren ate a quick breakfast and then hopped in their car, singing all the songs of the tour while they were on the way.
Joe quickly took a shower and woke his roommates. Then they all made breakfast. 'Guys, today is the day' he grinned as he looked in the sleepy faces of his friends. Sipping his coffee, Dylan said: 'Joe, relax will you, we've just woken up'. Joe was always very hyper with such things. Dylan groaned as he thought of how it would be if they would meet up with the girls. Lauren and Joe were always so hyperactive together, this was going to be hell. Joey lowered his coffee, and spoke with a thick voice from the sleep: 'Is everything packed?'. 'Yeah, I'm ready' said Brian who was sipping his Redbull. They picked up their stuff and got in their car. Slowly they drove to the parking lot where their bus would be.
Meredith opened her eyes, and quickly looked at the alarm clock. It was 7:30. Shit! They would be late. She quickly stood up, but too fast and got dizzy. While holding the wall for support, she waggled to the kitchen, only to see a fully dressed Jaime. 'Hey sunshine, have you decided to wake up in the end?' she said with a butter-sweet voice. 'Jaime! Why didn't you wake me up earlier? Now we are going to be late!' Meredith screamed. 'Shh, no it's allright!' Jaime said quickly. 'I've packed your things, and you only need to shower, we still have time. We will eat breakfast in the car'. Meredith smiled 'Oh jaim, thanks' she said and gave her a quick hug. She quickly stepped under the shower and arrived 15 minutes later in the kitchen, gasping for breath. 'I'm ready! Come on let's go'.
As their car pulled into the parking spot, Lauren pushed her face against the window. Their bus was huge! She hopped out of the car while it was still moving and ran to the bus. She quickly walked around it. 'Well, does miss Lopez approve of our bus?' Julia said while carrying her own backpack with stuff to the bus. 'Yeah, my peasant, it's very good' Lauren said with her Draco-accent. She quickly ran to their car to get her stuff. She started to lift her big suitcase from the trunk, then found out it was too heavy. She quickly looked around for help, and saw Joe stepping out of the boys car.
Joe had just put one foot out of the car, when two small hands had grabbed his arm and started pulling him towards Julia's car. 'Good morning to you too, Lo' he said smiling. 'Yeah, hi' the petite brunette said in a grumpy voice. 'Listen joe, can you help me lift this thing out of the car?' Lauren said and she looked at him with her big brown puppy eyes. 'Yeah, all right' he said and picked up the suitcase. It was heavy, but he could handle it. 'Lo, why did you bring a suitcase bigger then yourself?' he said, smiling. 'I need the room' she simply said. When he put the enormous suitcase down, Lauren started pushing it towards the bus. 'Lo, it looks ridiculous' he said and laughed. He walked towards his own car and picked up his own suitcase. It was much smaller then Lauren's. Smiling to himself, he picked all the boys stuff and dragged it to the bus.
Joey sat down on the stairs of the bus and looked around. Everyone, except Meredith and Jaime, was there. They would leave at 8:30. They still had some time, but normally it was Lauren who would be late and not the other girls. He sighed as he got up to throw his empty coffee cup away.
Meredith and Jaime drived as fast as they could, but they still were a little bit late. 'We're sorry guys' Meredith said as they all came together at the bus. 'I overslept' she said and smiled sheepishly. Dylan laughed. 'Yeah, well we're still on time though' . They stood in front of the bus. Lauren hopped up and down of excitement. 'Can I open it, pleaseeeee?' She said and blinked with her long eyelashes. No one could ignore that cute face. 'Yeah, all right' Joey said and gave her the keys. Lauren slowly walked up the stairs and put the key in the lock. She opended the lock and flipped the door open. 'Tadaaaa' she said and jumped inside. She quickly raced around it before coming back to the door to pick up her suitcase. Everyone rushed to the beds to claim their places. Lauren started to lift her suitcase, but like before, it was too heavy. Joe came back and helped her, but when Lauren arrived all the beds were taken. 'Where do I have to sleep now?' she whined. 'Well, on the couch?' Brian said and everyone laughed. Angrily she walked to the small couch and put her suitcase there.
After their bus driver had arrived, they took off. They played games on the Wii, laughed and told each other stories. Before they knew it it was time to eat lunch. Lauren quickly ran to the kitchen to look for Gluten free food. She found some crackers, but all the good things had gluten in it. Whining she walked to the couch and began nibbling on one of the crackers. She hated her allergy. While everyone was enjoying the food, she could only eat those stupid crackers.
Meredith saw that Lauren was a little quiet. She walked over to her friend and sat down. 'What's up, LoLo? ' she asked. 'There is no gluten free food, except for these gross crackers' Lauren mumbled and threw the pack of crackers against the wall. 'You know what, I have a surprise for you!' Meredith said and ran to her bed. They had expected this, and had prepared a little food packet for Lauren. It was wrapped with sparkly paper. She picked it from her suitcase, and walked over to Lauren. The big package had not been unnoticed, and quickly, everyone walked over to Lauren. Meredith placed the big present on Lauren's lap. 'For you' Meredith said as Lauren looked at her with a questionable look. Lauren's eyes lit up and she quickly unwrapped the present. 'All gluten free!' Jaime said and clapped in her hand. 'O MY GOD I LOVE YOU GUYS' Lauren screamed and got up to hug all of them. This was going to be the best tour ever!
