Chapter synopsis: R5 are on their two month tour, Lucy comes along for the ride and then there is a problem for one member.


"Come on everyone! We're leaving now!" Stormie shouts up the stairs. I hear the noise of Rydel, Ross, Rocky, Ellington and Ryland making their ways down stairs, shouting and play fighting. I turn to face Riker who was lying behind me. I reach my hand behind me and intertwine our fingers. I feel his lips against my forehead. I smile softly. I lean in and as I am about to make our lips meet...

"Riker! Lucy! Get your lazy asses down here!" Mark yells. We both spring up. Before I get dressed I take a moment to admire Riker's naked form.

"Hey quit staring!" He says and I let a playful smirk form on my lips.

"If I don't?" I tease as I pull out a pale blue dress. I turn away. I feel him behind me, hands around my waist.

"I'll give you something that you will never forget" he purrs. I pull the dress up my body and allow him to do the back up. I face him, move my face closer to him.

"See you down stairs" I whisper. I move away to the door.

"When did you become such a tease?" He asks. I shrug.

"You just do something to me" I sweetly say as I leave him to get ready.


"Well you took your damn time Riker" Ross says when Riker joins us twenty minuets later.

"Sorry" he mutters as we make our way out to the van. He turns to me. "So what are you going to do now Lucy?" he asks

"About what?" I ask confused.

"Well... We're going on tour. Are you going to spend the next few months on your own?"

"No. I'm spending them with some really good friends" I reply as I climb into the van.

"Oh" he says surprise evident in his voice. "Who?"

"Riker has the bleach you've been using done something to your head? I'm coming with you" I say exasperatedly. His hands fly to his mouth.

"For real?"

"For real" I reply with a laugh. "Oh yeah, Rocky can you send me that video? Riker has to see his face" I say.

"I hate you" Riker says as he sits next to me.

"No you don't" I reply as I rest my head on his shoulder.


"Hey Ross! Go long!" I hear Ryland shout from the outside of the bus. I smile slightly before going back to strumming my guitar. Mine and Riker's anniversary would happen when we were still on tour. I look up as the door opens to reveal Rydel.

"Ry, you okay?" I ask

"Can you come and take a look at Ross?" I nod before following her out to where the boys were crowded.

"Okay, just step back guys. Give him some room" I say as I reach him. I see his eyes staring to droop. "No, Ross. Listen to me, you have to stay awake okay? How many fingers am I holding up?" I tell him.

"Umm, four?" He questions. My suspicions were right. He was suffering from concussion.

"Rocky, could you get him into the bus?" I ask as I stand and move so that Rocky could get to his younger brother. We make our way back to the bus. Rydel and Ellington fall in step with me.

"Okay, spill. Is he going to be okay?" Asks Ell

"He will be. However I don't think he should perform tonight" I reply

"Why?"

"He has mild concussion and the risk shouldn't be taken" I explain.


Three hours later I was waiting for Riker to finish getting ready so I could wish him luck with the show. I turn when I feel a hand on my shoulder.

"Lucy, can you take Ross's place on stage?" Asks Stormie. I blink several times.

"O-of course Stormie" I answer before smiling like a lunatic.


"Okay guys..." Riker begins "we had a bit of a problem earlier today cause Ross has suffered mild concussion. So we are performing as R4 instead of R5" that was my cue to enter.

"No you won't" I say as I make my way to centre stage where Ross would have been.

"Lucy, I know you are trying to help but there is no R in your name so it is still going to be R4 even with you on stage" Rocky says as he faced me.

"Actually my middle name is Rachel" I answer.

"I didn't even know that!" Riker exclaims and I smile.

"Now these members of the R5 family have come here to get loud. I think we should get started then" I say before launching into the first song.

And that was how I performed with the band I had always wanted to sing with. Even if it was for one night.


So I hope you liked that! I had a review from areuacat earlier saying that she wanted more of a tour. So I hope this serves your needs.
