More travelling... I've done the trip they're doing... and it takes AGES! It took two and a half days by car, but that was with stopping for the night. But I guess it would be a thousand times better with McFly haaaahaa =)

It seemed to go on forever. We stopped in Shepparton for a lunch of McDonalds; Vanessa didn't eat of course. We force fed her some chips and ice cream but that was it. Zac was really fussy about stuff and only ate certain things. We got back on the bus and played card games and board games and other games on the way and watched DVD's and movies and played the PS2 and practised some of the songs we had to sing. The boys mucked around a lot, usually involving everything they did with pain; mostly aimed at poor Dougie! Vanessa fell asleep and so did Zac so I talked to Sophie and Nate and looked out the window at the beaches and stuff along the coast. At around six we stopped again and had tea of KFC, then kept driving. Vanessa didn't eat anything. It got annoying just sitting for so long.

'My bum is asleep,' I said, moving around in my seat to try and wake it up. Zac started laughing at me and wouldn't stop. It was never boring at all. The people who we were with were amazing and always had so many stories to tell about their experiences together, especially Dougie, whose didn't seem all that truthful...especially the one about him saving Tom from a killer squirrel in America whilst filming Just My Luck with a plastic fork...

It was around eight when Tom stood up carefully, closing off a curtain.

'You can get changed in here if you like, we'll go down here,' he said, motioning towards the front of the bus.

'Okay,' we replied, getting our stuff and getting changed, then the boys went down and got changed into the stuff they wanted to sleep in as well. As it started getting dark and late we all moved to our beds, (Vanessa got the bed tonight) but it was very hard to sleep; whenever the bus went over a bump you woke up and Sophie's feet were in my face and kept moving around and someone was snoring, very, very loudly and someone else was breathing loud as well.

'OUCH!!' Zac shouted, waking everyone up.

'What's wrong?' Tom sighed, switching a light on. We all moaned and covered our eyes, the light blinding us. Zac was lying on the floor.

'Nothing just fell out of bed,' he groaned, picking himself up and getting back into bed. Tom shook his head and switched the light off.

Needless to say, every single one of us on the couches fell out of bed at least once that night, much to the amusement of Dougie, Harry and Danny, who all thought it was hilarious to wake up and see us lying on the floor in pain after we went around a sharp corner. Tom just thought it was annoying.

Until we went around a round-about. It took everyone by surprise. As we went around one side of it, Harry and Danny slipped out of their beds, Harry landing heavily on top of Danny on the floor. They both moaned and tried to sit up; until they went around the other side of it. Tom and Dougie slipped out of their beds as well, Dougie landing on Danny and Tom landing on all of them, blankets tangled around them all and pillows falling off to the side. It was so funny to see them all lying on the floor on top of each other. They all shouted various things, mostly swear words while we all giggled, happy to of stayed in bed for once! The driver, Tony pulled up on the side of the road.

'You guys alright?' he asked, walking back to us where McFly were all climbing out from underneath each other.

'Bad Tony. Bad. No more sharp corners,' Danny said pointing his finger at him, getting back into his bed.

'Sorry chaps couldn't resist,' he laughed, going back up to the driver's seat.

'How come you didn't fall out?!' Dougie exclaimed, pointing at us from where he was sitting on the floor.

'Because we're better than you Dougie,' Sophie said, poking her tongue out at him. He poked his out too.

'You're a meanie Sophie,' he said in a whiney voice.

'You are,' she said back.

'I know you are but what am I?' Dougie said, poking his tongue out again.

'You are,' Sophie said.

'NO, YOU ARE!!' Dougie exclaimed.

'Doug, get into bed,' Tom moaned with his hands over his eyes. He had landed on the corner of the table, hitting his head and obviously it was hurting him.

'No, she's mean I don't want to go to bed. Tell her off Tom, she's being mean and making bad signs at me,' Dougie whined while Sophie made rude hand gestures at him. 'See?! Look?! She's making them now!' he exclaimed, pointing at her.

Sophie stopped as soon as Tom poked his head out to look at her. She waved and smiled sweetly at him.

'Douglas Lee Poynter, go to bed now!' Tom exclaimed wearily.

'My name's not Douglas. It's Dougie,' Dougie smirked.

'Dougie GET TO BED NOW!' Tom shouted.

'Make me,' Dougie sneered.

Tom nodded at Harry and they both dived on Dougie on the floor where he screeched in pain, dragging him into his bed.

'Now STAY!' Harry exclaimed, pointing his finger at him. Dougie crossed his arms and poked his tongue out at Harry, before yelling some very jumbled gibberish words at him while making very crazy movements with his hands. Harry hit him on the head and climbed up into his own bed. Dougie, being very cheeky, went to sneak out again.

'Don't even think about it!!' Tom shouted, without even looking out at him. Dougie sighed and got back into bed. Despite all the noise, Danny was asleep. After that, everyone shut up and fell asleep. It was a very long, painful and uncomfortable night.

The sun woke me up the next morning. I opened my eyes and checked the time. It was 6:46am. I sat up and looked around at everyone else who was sitting up and awake and whispering to each other. Danny waved at me when he noticed I was awake, so I waved back. Everyone went and got changed then we stopped in another little town for breakfast at McDonalds again. It felt good to walk around outside again and stretch my legs.

'Where are we?' I asked.

'Somewhere in Queensland I think, pretty close to Brisbane,' Danny yawned, throwing his arms up and stretching, the muscles in his back and arms straining and flexing. God, he was gorgeous!!

'That was quick,' I said, taking my eyes away from him. Sophie, who was standing beside me stood, gawking at him, mouth open and everything. I nudged her in the ribs.

'Yeah,' Danny said, stretching his arms behind his back as we all went in and got our breakfast.

We all piled back onto the bus and kept driving again. Vanessa didn't look any better and was still pale, but at least she'd stopped throwing up. I wrapped myself up in the blanket off my "bed" and ended up falling asleep leaning back onto the seat. Next thing I knew Zac was shaking me awake telling me we were there. I checked the time, and to my surprise it was twelve o'clock in the afternoon! We had finally made it! I sat up and rubbed my eyes then pulled the blanket off me and followed everyone else out, blinking in the bright sunlight. I looked around and saw the beach at one side of the road, then our venue on the other. I followed everyone else inside. It was massive! We had a look around it and then started practising.

We practised for around six hours. It was awesome; they had all these fire things set up everywhere, and heaps of smoke machines and cool lights and the theme of the stage was Australia, so it had surf boards, waves, fake animals and stuff on it, a little bit like the Motion in the Ocean Tour set. After around three hours, the boys left, so we had to sing to backing tracks, because we needed around a hundred times more practise than them. The crew were teaching us how to sing into the microphones properly, and showing us step by step what was happening and where we had to go after every little thing. There was a set list stuck to the floor in front of our microphones so we knew what song was coming up next. They also taught us a little thing to do while we were singing, so it didn't look like we were just standing there being boring. It was all confusing and hard to remember, but they all assured us they'd be there to help us on the nights.

Vanessa only joined in during the last hour. She watched for the earlier bits and every time she'd move, she'd have at least one person's eyes on her making sure she was still standing up; Harry was watching her extra closely and kept missing his cue to start playing, stuffing everyone else up. We practised Bubblewrap many times to make sure we had it right. After three rounds of it, Vanessa couldn't take anymore. She collapsed on the floor in a fit of tears, sobbing her eyes out. Sophie and I raced forward and sat beside her, trying to calm her down, but it wasn't working. Danny came up behind us.

'Mind if I try?' he asked.

'Not at all,' Sophie said in a worried voice. Danny whispered something in Vanessa's ear then picked her up off the cold floor, taking her into an empty room to talk to her. She came out later with him looking happier again.

Then we went back to our hotel rooms. McFly had their own room, we had ours and Zac and Nate had their room, all next to each other. They told us they didn't usually have a room together, but they got one for us so it was easier. Vanessa dropped her bags on the floor as soon as she walked in and lay down on the bed. We had our first real shower in a few days, not just deodorant! Sophie and I quietly unpacked our stuff after showering, and then we left her to be alone and get some extra rest. We went into Zac and Nate's room where they were unpacking some of their belongings and making up their beds and stuff. Every time I'd try and move my whole body ached and my throat hurt.

'I have never been so stuffed and tired in my life,' Zac said, sitting down on his bed. I went and sat next to him.

'Why, you weren't rehearsing and stuff,' I said.

'Well just because I didn't do that, doesn't mean all this isn't making me tired,' he said. 'Travelling makes me tired in general,' he added.

'Where's Vanessa disappeared to?' asked Nate from over in the corner of the room where he was doing something.

'Sleeping I think,' Sophie replied.

'Well she needs it,' Nate replied, finishing what he was doing and walking over to us.

There was a loud knock on the door and McFly all walked in, sitting on any bed they came across, pushing clothes and bags off them to make room.

'So, how's it going guys?' Harry asked as he dived onto the bed, pushing Zac's pile of clothes off it.

'Harry!!' Zac groaned, getting down on his hands and knees, putting all his clothes back into a pile. Harry shrugged then grinned, his electric blue eyes sparkling in the sunlight from the open window.

'Pretty good,' Sophie replied, smiling.

'Vanessa?' Tom asked.

'She's sleeping,' I replied.

'Good,' he replied.

'So what's on the menu for tonight?' Zac asked.

'Pizza,' Danny replied.

'Okay, sounds good,' he replied.

'Is anyone else stuffed?' asked Dougie. We all nodded.

'Well looks like I'm not the only one then, so thats good, I just thought I was getting even more unfit if thats possible,' Dougie said, massaging his leg muscles.

'No Doug, I don't think that is possible,' Harry said. Dougie pushed him and Harry made a big scene of falling to the floor then pretending to cry, clutching his head where he hit it on the floor. Dougie jumped up and pulled Harry into his lap, pretending to stroke his hair and kiss his head better.

'What's the time anybody?' Sophie asked.

'Time to get a watch haha!' Danny exclaimed and everyone laughed at his ridiculously bad joke.

'6:30,' Nate replied from next to her.

'Hmm, it seems way earlier,' Sophie said, looking out the window that looked down onto the street below us.

'You girls getting ready to amaze everyone with your talent tomorrow night?' Danny asked. Sophie and I nodded enthusiastically.

'That's good then, you'll be okay, try not to worry too much about stuffing up, cos no one really notices,' he added, as if he could read my mind. We both nodded again.

'I might go see if Vanessa wants to come in here too,' I said, standing up.

'I'll come too,' Zac said, pulling me up.

We walked into our room, but Vanessa still seemed to be sleeping.

'I think we should leave her,' Zac said.

'No, if we leave her she won't sleep tonight at all cos she won't have any sleep left,' I said, walking over to her and sitting on the side of the bed and shaking her gently to wake her up.

'Hi,' I said. 'I think it's time you got up it's almost time for tea,' I said. Vanessa nodded and sat up, smoothing her hair and walking out of the room and into the one next to us, which was Zac and Nate's.

'So Lucie,' Zac said.

'So Zac,' I replied. 'Why did you even want to come with me to wake her up anyway?' I asked him.

'So we could do this once she was gone,' Zac said, cupping my face in his hands and kissing me. I grabbed him back again and kissed him back, starting my first ever pash that I started. After we broke apart, Zac opened his eyes and looked at me.

'Well done Lucie, I like you taking the lead,' he said.

I laughed at him being so serious, then pulled him up and dragging him back into the room where everyone else was. Vanessa still looked tired and half asleep (as you do when you've just woken up).

'So, do you want to order this pizza?' Tom asked. We all nodded enthusiastically, even Vanessa, which was a big surprise.

We got it delivered which was good so nobody had to leave to get it. Danny had taken a huge bite and gotten the sauce on his nose. We all giggled at him as he took another bite.

'What?' he asked with a mouthful of pizza.

'Nothing,' everyone said and quickly went back to talking. We couldn't take it and all burst out laughing.

'What?' Danny asked once more.

'You have sauce on your nose,' Sophie giggled. Danny put his hand to his nose and wiped it. Sure enough a big blob of tomato sauce was on his fingers. He turned red and rubbed the rest off and didn't talk again all night.

After we had eaten, we all went to our rooms and watched some TV for a while, then went to sleep. It was all so tiring, that we were all asleep by nine thirty.

Does anyone else find Zac a bit of a sleaze? I never wrote him to be one, but it seems a little like he is lol =) Please review? And also just a random fact, I was writing this fic last night cos its still not finished and it's passed 100,000 words lol...Check out my new fic, We're The Young, We're Alright if you want to as well :)
