Chapter 2

A/N This chapter is going to be really short, but I wanted to update before I go out of town tomorrow.

I squinted, yawned and sat up in bed. Big mistake, I banged my head on the bottom of the bed above me. "Uggh." I groaned. I slowly climbed out of bed and trudged to the kitchen and put a Poptart in the toaster. While it was cooking I went to my closet, which was right next to the bathroom and put on: a pair of short jean shorts, some brown riding boots, and a button down blue plaid shirt with the sleeves rolled up. I quickly put on minimal makeup, and pulled my hair up in a loose braid on the side. I quickly ate my Poptart and jogged off of the bus into the building that we were parked in front of.

My mom was waiting for my by the door, "Mom!" I said, giving her a hug. She smiled and hugged me back.

"So a lot of people came so we had to start interviewing without you," she said.

"That's okay, I overslept its my fault." I said looking at my watch, I was 15 minutes late.

"But we told them all to just leave after the first band, we just need your approval for them." She said, I raised my eyebrows, why had she told them all to leave?

"Can I meet them?" I asked.

"Yeah they're right in there." She said pointing to a door. I walked into the room and saw Macey, Bex, Liz, Zach, Grant, Jonas, and some other guy sitting there. I ran up to all of them and hugged them, the girls were all squealing, the guys were all stiff and cautiously wrapped their arms around me. I got to the last guy I didn't recognize. "I'm Cammie." I said, smiling.

"Aaron." He said.

"Oh, okay cool." I turned to everybody else, "So where's the band?" I asked

"WE"RE THE BAND!" Bex screamed, she had obviously been trying to hold this in for the whole time.

"Wait, who's doing what?" I asked

"Zach's the guitarist, Grant's the drummer, and Aaron's playing the base. Liz and I are backup singers." Bex said.

"Awesome! But what about Jonas and Macey?"

"Jonas is in charge of all the technical stuff with the occasional assistance from Liz, and Macey is the" Bex was cut off by Macey

"I'm the official makeup artist and stylist for everybody, but mainly you because you're really a solo artist." She said happily. I smiled at all of them.

"Okay well let me show you where you'll be staying and then we're going to need to get to work." I said. I led them out of the building, not missing my mom's smile. The guys were staying on a separate but from us, but the other girls were staying on my bus. I was so excited to see them. All the girls were on my bus unpacking. Macey literally brought a whole new dresser so she could fit all her clothes in it. We heard a knock on the door; I opened it and saw Aunt Abby standing there.

"Hey squirt." She said, walking onto the bus.

"What are you doing here?" I asked

"Well somebody had to keep you guys up with your school work while your on the road, so I'm now your official tutor." She said. We all grinned at each other. Abby had her own bus where half of it was a classroom where we going to go for a little while every weekday.

"Okay guys, we need to go rehearse." I said. After we had talked to Abby we had gone to my bus, the guys were still on their bus.

"Fun." Liz said. We all got up except for Macey.

"Oh right, there really won't be anything for you to do until the dress rehersal and the actual show." I said apologetically.

"Its okay, I'm going to stay here and plan out the outfits for the show and stuff like that." She said happily.

"Okay, have fun," I said, "Come on Bex, Liz let's go," I said. We ran over to the guys' bus.

"Come on guys we need to go rehearse, Jonas you should probably come just to check out the tech stuff there." I said. They all got off of the bus and followed us to the huge stadium we were going to be playing in.

"Wow…" Grant said, "It's…big.." Bex smacked him on the arm.

"No shit, Sherlock." She said. I laughed and opened the door. I led them onto the stage. Jonas had already disappeared among all of the equipment. All of the instruments were already out on the stage.

"Okay, so you guys should probably learn the music first and then we'll try it all together. Grant and Zach you guys can practice and I'll help Liz and Bex my vocal trainer should be somewhere around here. After hours of practice everybody had finally learned their parts. "Okay, are you guys ready to run the song through for the first time?"

"Yeah, which song first?" Zach asked.

"Lets start with If You Only Knew." I said. (here's the actual song on youtube .com/watch?v=uX4SWbS2LpY&feature=related)

I grabbed the microphone and made sure Jonas had set up everything. I turned around and smiled at everybody behind me.

If you only knew that I think about you In a kinda secret way I say kind of 'cause Well it's obvious I must be feeling these things Too bad you can tell 'cause... If you only knew it would be a dream come true Standing next to you Yeah I might go insane to know That you feel the same as I do If You Only Knew If you only knew I write songs about you In the lyrics of the feel I imagine us chillin' out and stuff When I close my eyes this is real Singing out your name If you only knew it would be a dream come true Standing next to you Yeah I might go insane to know That you feel the same as I do And then maybe someday You'd write me a song too If I had it my waaaaaaaay If you only knew If you only knew If you only knew it would be a dream come true Standing next to you Yeah I might go insane! If you only knew it would be a dream come true Standing next to you Yeah I might go insane to know That you feel the same as I do If You Only Knew

"That was great guys!" I said, "Come on, let's head back to the bus."
