You've been on the road for hours staring out the window and searching for something interesting.

"I'm so bored!" you yell as you walk around the bus. You walk past Jade's bunk and check in to see that he is sleeping peacefully with his hand over the edge. You smile and walk down 3 bunks to your own bunk. You climb up and sit against the side of it and grab your notebook from underneath your pillow and begin drawing some pictures. You are hoping that maybe, just maybe, someone will pay you to draw them, thus leading on your cartooning career.

You started drawing an anime of Jade smiling lovingly at a mirror with a reflection of you. When you finished up, you grabbed some colored pencils and started doing some shading. Then you started on another picture. This time, it was of Jade sleeping peacefully. You then decided to draw some freestyle. You drew some pictures of people you never knew, but felt like drawing. As you ended your last few sketches you heard a voice from behind your curtain. "Hey, what are you drawing?" said Davey as he hopped up and sat next to you. "Oh, wow those are really good. Are you considering selling them?"

You nod but then say, "Well, I plan to sell some but not these ones," you then start to hide all the Jade ones. "You really like him, don't you?" he smiled warmly then said, "Well, that's good to know. Now he has someone to play pattycake with him at night!" You laughed and then he continued talking, "Yeah, I would've been hitting on you earlier if Jade wasn't so finicky about his picks. I just wanted to be friendly, is what I said." You then scooted away from him. "I was just kidding. I'm thinking of finding myself someone to settle down with this coming year. It gets lonely being on tour, you know?"

"What? Davey doesn't score? There'd be tons of chicks who would sleep with you!"

He frowned and said, "It's not cool to sleep with random people. It takes the excitement out of it all. Hey, you have that roommate Schilling, right? She looks like my type..." You then replied instantly, "Wow, hands off. If you are going to meet someone special it is NOT going to be through me. Just wait, I bet you'll meet a girl when you reach warped tour."

He sighed and said, "Fine, but if you're wrong, I'm so going to get you back for it. And I don't mean verbally."

You shuddered as you put away your drawings and stepped down from bunk. You had forgot it was the top bunk so you slipped. You then felt someone's hands around your waist. You looked up and said, "Thanks Davey. I owe you."

"Hell yeah, you do," he laughed and put you down and signaled for you to follow him to the back of the bus.

"Man, Jade is crashed. Oh well, I guess that just means you're spending the day with good old David."

You laughed and sat down on a red leather couch. He sat on the one across from you. "So tell me," he started, "What are you really like? I haven't personally gotten to know you other than Jade's obsession. What do you like to do?"

God he never stops talking. You laugh and answer, "Well, I really love singing and I like to draw a lot. I'm kind of small so people use me as an easy target and most people thinks it's awesome. I hear guys like petite girls. It makes them feel stronger. Um, I'm pretty playful and I can be pretty funny at times but when I'm serious, it's kind of weird. It's like I have a split personality. I'll be all avoidant one day and the next I'm up with everyone and having a blast. It's how I am sometimes."

Davey nodded in some understanding. "Interesting," he said, "now I see why he likes you. It makes him feel like he can protect you and he can have a great flirtatious conversation as well."

You stood up in disagreement and yell, "I am not flirtatious!"

He just shook his head and said, "Denial. Have you seen how you guys act. Oblivious much? Yet stubborn as they come."

You sat back down in defeat and asked, "Have you ever considered being a therapist? You sure watch over me and Jade a lot. You're like an older brother."

He smiled widely and said, "I feel like that sometimes. Even though Jade is older than me and is usually more responsible than me, he can do some stupid things he regrets. I am just the guy that says, "I told you so"."

You smiled. "Cute," you say as you get up to play video games for the rest of the trip.

When you get there, you decide to change your clothes due to the extreme temperature change. You put on a black spaghetti strap with metal rings on the sides and then a pair of dickies knee length shorts on as you put on your sunglasses and walk outside. You might as well look around.

As you start to walk around, you notice there are hundreds of booths of pretty much everything. But as you continue walking, one booth catches your eye. You notice several paintings of members of nearly every band on warped. "Excuse me can I help you?" says a girl who looked about 18 or 19 years old. She had long dark brown hair with and an almond shaped face. "Um, are you the girl who painted these?" She nods which surprises you because she seems so young. "Wow, these are incredible. If I had money I would buy them in a heartbeat." She smiles from the compliment but frowns when she finds you can't buy them. "My mom is suffering from lung cancer. I'm selling these so I can raise money for our hospital bills. Plus I'm trying to raise money for better researching for cancer patients." You then say, "Oh, I'm sorry to hear about your mother. That's a pretty good plan you've got there. I know some guys who might want to take a look at these but I'd have to go get them. Do you know the band AFI?" Her jaw drops and she nods. "Well, I came here with them and I'm almost certain they'd buy you out."

You turn to go get them when she grabs you by the shoulder. "Can I come with you? No one has been coming to my booth anyways so I can probably just close it down for now. d..do you know...Davey Havok?" she asked shyly. You smiled and nodded. "Would you like to meet him?" She nodded excitedly and ran to close down her booth and then met up with you as the two of you started walking. "My name is Emily." She said. "Jess. Nice to meet you. I liked your paintings. I was considering selling my drawings here but I don't think anyone would like them."

"I bet I would like them. I'm pretty good at drawing too but it's the only thing I'm good at other than singing, which I'm okay at. But I'm not the best." You smiled. She was so pretty. She had warm brown eyes and a delicate face that was naturally beautiful without much makeup. Her lips looked soft and they were pouty looking and had a pink glow to them. She was really thin and had beautiful curves. You knew Davey would like her. The only thing was that she was really shy. You wondered how things would go.

One thing you noticed was that you and Emily were like twins. You had nearly everything in common. It was great "How long have you liked AFI?" you asked as you entered the tour bus. "About 4 years now. I've liked them since I was 15. I'm 19 years old now. I've always wanted to meet Davey. But I know I'm too young to ever have anything more than meeting." You laughed and said, "Trust me, I doubt he'd freak about age."

As you entered the bus, she piped up and wasn't talking much as you walked to the end of the bus where Davey was having a huge video game match with Adam. "Hey guys, I want you to meet someone," you said as you stepped aside revealing Emily with her legs turned in and with her hands behind her from being nervous. The room got quiet and you could hear the sound of crashing from the video game. Blink. Blink. Awkward silence. You spoke up. "Um, yeah, her name is Emily. I met her at one of the booths she had set up. She has all these wonderful paintings of bands and I was thinking you could maybe buy some because her mom has cancer and they need the money."

Davey stood. "Sure, show me where it is. But first," he walked up to Emily, who was awestruck, "My name is Davey. It is a pleasure to meet you." He stuck his hand out and Emily slowly reached out but he snatched her hand and pulled her into a hug. She was blushing like mad. "Loosen up, sweetheart. We don't bite...much." He then walked up to front and we willingly followed him outside. "Oh my god," was all Emily could say after her first encounter with Davey. "Was that real or was I dreaming?" she asked. You then heard of voice coming from behind you guys. "Babe, I do believe that was real and so was this," and Davey came from behind her and kissed her on the cheek. She kind of stopped and was stunned. "Davey, knock it off, you're going to give her a hard attack!" you laughed.

As you reached the booth, you noticed that a few of her painting had been stolen. "Sigh, this isn't the first time this has happened." She said as she collected the few left. Davey walked up and said, "I'm sorry that happened. I'm willing to buy the rest of them. Give me your price." She screamed and hugged him then pulled away after she realized what she did. "Um, yeah...they're 5 bucks a painting and there are 10 left."

"You need to raise those prices. These are quality paintings."

"Oh no, just the 50 dollars alone would be fine..."

"150 dollars it is." He said as he pulled out his checkbook and handed her a check. She was too shocked to say anything. "Thank you," was all she could spit out. "It's no problem, really. Consider it a gift."

As soon as we hauled all the painting to the bus, Jade was awake and had asked, "What'd I miss?" We laughed and told him everything about Emily and all that Davey did to make her nervous. "Hm, maybe this time Davey will actually settle down." Jade had said. "I'm pretty sure he will. I talked to him earlier since you were asleep and he told me everything." Jade sighed and complained, "Why do I always miss the fun stuff?"

You pouted your lip and then said, "Because you suck."

Jade then faked a shocked expression on his face and said in a really girly voice, "Fine. If that's the way it going to be, then I just won't talk to you this entire trip. No more Jade love for you! Hmph."

"Well fine. No more Jess love for you." You said while Jade fake cried the whole time you said that. "Was it the sex? I'll stimulate you more next time, I promise! Don't leave me; I get so lonely!"

"You bum." You said and smacked him on the head as you walked to the back of the bus to eat lunch with Davey and Emily. Emily was actually starting to get used to Davey hanging all over her even though it was still a shock for her that she even got to meet him. But as good as our day went, nothing turned out as good as the concert that night.
