The days went on with Stephanie feeling unloved, unwanted and unappreciated. She was in the hotel bathroom and had just finished brushing her teeth. Paul appeared in the bathroom doorway.
"I'm gonna go work out." He said.
"Ok." "Are we still getting that tour bus tomorrow for the next couple cities?"
"Yeah." "It'll be you, me Randy and Ric." He kissed her on the cheek. "I love you."
"I love you too."
"I'll be back in a few hours."
"Ok bye."
"Bye."
The next day they all got on the tour bus.
"Hi Stephanie." Randy said.
"Hi Randy."
"How are you?"
"Good." "You?"
"I'm fine."
Later that night if was midnight. Stephanie and Paul were laying in a bed in the back of the bus. Stephanie was still awake. Even with Paul laying next to her, she felt like he wasn't there. She got up and went to the front of the bus. Randy was sitting there.
"Hi." She said sitting down next to him.
"Hi." "Can't sleep?"
"No." "I have things on my mind."
"Wanna talk about it?"
"Has Paul said anything to you about me and him?"
"No." "Why?"
"He's been distant lately and I don't know why." "I don't know what I said or did."
"I'm sure it isn't you." "He's probably just stressed with work or something."
They spent the next three hours talking. She looked at the clock. "It's three o'clock in the morning."
He looked at the clock. "It is."
"Sorry to keep you up with my rambling."
"It's alright."
"Thanks." "It was nice to talk to someone."
"No problem."
"I'm gonna get some sleep."
"Me to." They both stood up and started going to their beds. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
