The crowd was abuzz with different choices.

"Ay Na Na!"

"Angel!"

"Not Just You!"

Cody grinned.

"All of those are great, but there's one that just comes to mind with Angela. It's kind of an old one, but it really describes the way I feel…All Day?"

The crowd cheered, and Cody took one of her hands and the microphone.

"I like this right here…This young girl, she's so cute. Every time I see her wear a fresh pair of shoes, cause this young girl, she's such a killa, can't wait 'til I have it Imma spend half a milla."

He smiled at Angela, and twirled her around. Her hair fanned out and her eyes sparkled under the stage lights as he sang to her.

"I can see us together on top, we living like we hit the jackpot. Cha-ching, like money in the bank. You should be with me, you're like my favorite song on the radio, I could listen to you all day. You're like a music video, I could look at you all day. You make me do my two step, all day. You keep my looking fly for you, all day."

Cody let go of her hand only to do his famous dougie, making Angela giggle and blush and the crowd go nuts. He was biting his bottom lip slightly, and as he ran his hands through his golden hair, illuminated more-so by the stage lights, he kept his eyes locked on Angela's. He was smiling slightly, knowing exactly what he was doing. He could make her stomach do flips and her heart hammer and her hands sweaty with only the slightest of looks.

"Stop me, in my tracks. Had to know your name…Knick knack paddy got a fine little swag, you and me together is a match. Knick knack paddy got a fine little swag, you and me together girl we got it in the bag."

He took her hands again and pulled her close as the crowd went nuts. Cody put his hands around her middle and held her close, singing just for her now.

"Singing to this song all day, singing to this song all day…"

Cody leaned forward ever so slightly, and went to kiss Angela. But halfway through, he changed course and went for her cheek. He released her, and that confident swagger he had worn earlier was gone. He was blushing a bit now, and seemed nervous. The lights in his eyes went out as the song ended, he avoided Angela's eyes.

What could that mean?

"Greyson, come here," Alli pulled Greyson to her and put her arms around his middle. "Kiss me."
"Alli, you're so pushy," Greyson laughed, pulling away a bit.

"You love it," Alli grinned back and then she smashed her lips to his. Greyson kissed her back, and then pulled her with him as they sat down on the edge of Alli's bed. Angela was in the next room, and they could hear her music playing. Cody had come straight home from the concert and gone to bed, much to Angela's dismay.

Alli pushed Greyson back and ran her hands through his hair as they kissed. His lips crashed over hers over and over again in an ocean of compassion, and they both pulled away for breath.

They both looked into each other's eyes, brown into blue, and Greyson felt lonely. He knew the way Alli felt about him, and he knew it wasn't love. She thought he was cute and she was passionate about him, but she didn't love him. He was only fourteen, but he was in it for love. He wanted to skip the whole puppy loving phase and cut to the chase. It was fun to be a kid, but that had sort of been robbed from him. He was expected to be serious and act professional in meetings and he was always around adults, and that sort of got to him after awhile.

"You are adorable, Greyson C**nce," Alli laughed, reaching up and brushing his hair out of his face. Greyson grinned.

"So are you, Alli S**pson."

She reached forward to kiss him again. As her lips tickled his, and her sweet taste filled his mouth, Greyson smiled into Alli.

Puppy Love wasn't too bad…

The next morning, the bus was zooming through New Mexico. They were not stopping until Dallas Texas, and that was about nine hundred miles away. The longest bus ride of the trip gave Cody time to think.

Looking into his mirror as he dressed, he was thinking of Angela, as usual. The night before under the stage lights as he danced and sang to her, she looked so lovely and happy. And then he went to kiss her, and that beautiful face became too beautiful. Too beautiful for him, anyway.

What if she didn't want to kiss again? What if she thought it was moving too fast? He was a gentleman, and needed to know where his limits lay. Was he allowed to kiss her yet?

What if, what if…

Cody sighed and finished dressing, then opened his door. He walked to the lounge where Angela was on her laptop.

"How's it going?" he asked sort of softly.

"Pretty good," she scooted over and pat the seat next to her for him. "There's way more interest in the website now that I have more videos and stuff…"

"Great," Cody said, happy she was happy.

"Yeah," Angela grinned, and pushed her laptop away. "So I was thinking…"

Cody turned and angled his body towards hers, ready to her anything she needed to say.

"Yes?"

"Well we're going to be traveling a long time," she said. "I mean, this is like a three day drive, right?"

"Yeah," Cody said. "I think that's about right."

"Well, we should watch the Harry Potter movies…I heard you liked those?"

"So much," he nodded.

Suddenly, Greyson poked his head out of his room where he and Alli were, as usual. They spent so much time locked up together, and it was starting to show on Greyson's face. He seemed tired, maybe even tired of Alli.

She on the other hand, was clingier than ever and stuck to Greyson like glue.

"Did somebody sat Harry Potter?"

"Uh, yeah," Angela said. "Cody and I are thinking of watching them through the drive…" she stopped and looked at Cody. "Well, I was thinking of it-"

"No that sounds great," Cody grinned. "I like to be active usually, but there's not much to do on a bus so I like to snuggle up and watch a movie every now and then."

"Cool," Angela said, turning her head as she looked out the window. "Same here."

"Not that we have to cuddle," Cody said quickly. "I mean, I wasn't even thinking when I said that. Of course we won't cuddle, I won't do anything you're not comfortable with. I'm not that way. Seriously, I didn't mean anything by that. You know what? We'll sit on separate couches, how's that?"

Angela gave him a funny look.

"If you think it's necessary," she said slowly. "But I like cuddling."

Cody flushed red.

"Um…I'm going to go take a nap."

"It's nine in the morning," Greyson called, but Cody was already gone. Greyson turned to Angela.

"What's up with him?"

Angela sighed.

"I have no idea."

Greyson laughed, and flopped down beside Angela on the couch. He picked up a strand of her brown hair and fiddled with it.

"I miss you," he said. "We haven't talked in awhile."

"Well maybe that's because you spend all your time with Alli," Angela teased, making a kissy face.

Greyson rolled his eyes.

"Yeah," he said, and sounded like he wanted to say more but stopped himself. He let Angela's hair fall.

"You okay, Grey?"
Greyson sighed.

"It's just Puppy Love," he exploded, randomly.

Angela watched as Greyson got up off the couch, stormed to his room and slammed the door. She sat back on the couch and blew her hair out of her eyes.

And they said girls were complicated?
