CHAPTER 3
"Okay, I'm up, I'm up!" Dani grumbled at her brother, who continued to shake her in her bed. "What time is it anyway" she squinted trying to get her eyes adjusted to the light now streaming into the open window.

"It's 7:30, and if you don't hurry up we're gonna miss the plane, it leaves at nine. What time did you get back anyway" he finished laughing at the girl as she stumbled to her feet. The deep sleeper that he was he hadn't heard his sister come in the night before, but he knew it was late because he had gone to bed at one in the morning and she was still out.

"Dunno, but it was after four" she replied as she shut the bathroom door to take a shower, smiling to herself. She had a great time the night before with John. It had been nothing major, they didn't even leave his room, just stayed up watching movies, and talking over room service junk food all night long. They really got along well, and although she was a bit disappointed that nothing had happened other that the hug when he first opened the door, and the one he gave her after he had walked her to the elevator, she was glad that she had been there with him. Plus there was the whole Jay mess that she needed to figure out. 'He'll never understand this' she frowned knowing Jay would never agree to her seeing John. 'I'll worry about it later' she thought finishing up her shower and getting dressed.

-----------

It had been a long two weeks for Dani, Jay had agreed to let her stay with him for a while, although still on a probation period of sorts, and she was exhausted. She slept the whole way to the next city and then to the hotel, waking only to move from plane to rental and rental to hotel room, where she immediately collapsed on the bed and started to go to sleep again. "Dani, I'm starving you wanna go and get something to eat?" Jay had asked as they first got in. The only answer he received was a white tennis shoe sailing towards his head. "Okay I'll just bring you something back" he finished and walked out of the door. She had only been asleep about ten minutes when her cell phone rang.

"Fuckin' A" she yelled as she got up to retrieve the phone from the night stand where she left it "this better be important. Hello?" she answered the phone irritated by the interruption.

"Hey, is this a bad time?" a familiar voice asked and she smiled and sat on the bed ignoring her body's need for sleep. John was way more important than sleep at the moment.

"No, I was just laying down, but it's okay, I slept all the way here."

"Okay" he laughed "I was just calling to see if you wanted to go do something tonight after the live event. This is Charlie's home town and he and Shelton were talking about some awesome club that they go to here. I thought it might be fun."

"Sure, sounds like fun."

"Okay I'll call you around 10 and we'll meet in the lobby down stairs."

"All right, see you then " she answered and flipped the cell phone shut.

"We're gonna meet Shelton and Charlie at the club, they left 20 minutes ago" John stated as pulled out of the drive in front of the hotel.

"Yeah, sorry about that. Jay decided to play twenty questions when I told him I was going out tonight. I told him that I was gonna meet Torrie and Billy in her room, and that we were going to the movies. He doesn't think I should be going to clubs either. I don't think he quite grasps the fact that I'm 21 yet" she ranted to a smirking John. "What are you laughing at," she asked swatting him playfully on the arm "would you rather I said 'oh by the way I am gonna go out to a club with John tonight see you at four in the morning?' I definitely wouldn't be back this time. He already had me away for 16 months, I don't wanna be sent home again thank you."

"No, I was just thinking, I'm the same way with my little sister" he continued to laugh as he pulled into the valet parking area at the club and got out. "And I would kick someone's ass if I knew she was sneaking around my back with them" he finished the smile on his face fading away.

"I know John and I really am thinking of how to tell him, it's just gonna take a while. But let's not think about that" she replied a smile creeping up on her face "tonight we are gonna have fun."

"You're right" he agreed as he wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "We are gonna have tons of fun."
Tons of fun hmmmmm? Wonder what will happen lol. Please R/R
