Living In The Radio

My 7 o'clock alarm went off the next morning, so I woke up and stretched my arms up, only to bump them into the ceiling of my bunk. I groaned and rolled over onto my face. Why wasn't that a dream? More like a nightmare that I was stuck living in. I grumbled to myself, grabbed my morning pill bottle out of my purse that I'd kept in my bunk, and slid out of the bunk. I could feel the bus moving, as I dragged my feet down the hall to the living area. I paid no mind to my surroundings as I slumped to the kitchen.
I pulled open three different cabinets before I found the plastic cups. I took one out and filled it with filter water from the fridge. I set it down to uncap the pills and popped one in my mouth with a large gulp of water.
"What'cha got?" A voice grunted quietly from behind me. I swallowed quickly and spun around in shock.
"What?" I whispered shrilly.
"What are they for?" Alex motioned to the pills.
"Nothing," I was flushed.
"Drug addict?!" He pointed to me with his jaw dropped.
"No! Of course not," I groaned.
"We'll talk about this later," Alex whispered as we heard footsteps coming down the hall. Jack emerged from the curtain and plopped down on the couch beside Alex.
"Hey," Jack murmured. "Some idiot brought an alarm and it woke me up," Jack glared at me with his eyes narrowed.
"Sorry, not sorry," I shrugged at him and took another sip of water.
"I need coffee," Alex mumbled and stood up, hitting his knee off the coffee table and laughing. "How much longer until we get to warped..." He was cut off by the sudden lurch. His foot had hit off the corner of the tables leg. "TOE!" He screamed and fell flat on his face.
"Warped toe?" Jack began to chuckle.
"Yeah totally," Alex rolled his eyes and held his foot in his hand, favoring it. Well now everyone's probably up and grumpy.
"Toetally," Jack snorted and Alex began to shoot him a glare, before bursting out laughing, himself. "Toemorrow,"
"You two are mental," I rolled my eyes at them.
"Do you mean, mentoel?" Alex joined Jack and turned to me from his sitting position on the floor.
"I don't understand you two," I face palmed. How can they be so stupid?
"You don't undtoestand us?" Jack giggled, his face turning red with laughter.
"Just shut up," I rolled my eyes at them. "Warped tour starts in Washington, right?" I wanted to change the subject, away from bad toe jokes.
"Warped toe does start in Washingtoen," Jack nodded.
"I hate you both," I squinted my eyes angrily.
"I'm sorry Harley," Alex chuckled and scrambled to stand up, taking a few steps toward me with open arms. Like hell am I giving him a hug!
I sat down quickly, and the seat spun. I yelp in surprise and grabbed the edge of the bar table.
"You didn't know it spun, did you?" Jack laughed from across the room.
"You should've told me," I pouted.
"Well I didn't think it mattered!" Alex laughed.
"Yeah Alex, you should've toeld Harley!" Jack yelled, his voice cracking again.
"What the fuck is going on out here?" The guy that I'd seen wearing a hat emerged from the curtain and rubbed his eyes. He was only wearing sweatpants, and I assume he is Rian.
"Don't any of you realize that clothes are meant to be worn?!" I exclaimed, annoyed.
"Calm the fuck down Harley," Zack came from behind Rain and shot be a look.
"Stop swearing," I moaned.
"What's your issue with swearing?" Alex asked, with a big grin.
"If you stop there won't be an issue!" I yelled into his face.
"Yeah Alex! You toetally have toe stop swearing!" Jack yelped from the couch. Zack and Rian looked between us in bewilderment.
"Stop making stupid toe jokes!" I screamed, my face burning with anger.
"Get the stick out of your ass!" Jack yelled back.
"There is no such stick, up my butt!" I corrected him angrily and spun around to look at my butt on the chair. Alex was behind me, humping the air near my ass. "Shoo!" I screamed at him and hit his arm, as he burst into laughter.
"Toeld you!" Jack laughed.
"You're driving me insane," I groaned and put my face in my hands.
"Would you saw you're losing all your marbles?" Jack snorted.
"What marbles?" I screamed.
"It's a joke..." Jack looked at me like I'm the idiot in the conversation.
"You're not very funny," I grumbled.
"Okay Harley, calm down," Alex put his hand on my shoulder momentarily, before I whipped my shoulder around to get it off.
"Don't touch me! You all suck!" I yelled to Alex.
"Would you say that we suck toe?" Rian caught on and looked between Jack and Alex for approval. They both nodded and grinned smugly.
"Yes! I would!" I growled at Rian.
"Toetally," Jack nodded and made a face like he were high.
"I'm so done," I groaned and lept off my seat, bumping into Rian and Zack as I stomped to my bunk angrily. I was SOOOO done with this tour.

I sat in my bunk the longest I could before I realized that my stomach might actually swallow itself. It was gurgling angrily and begging for something to eat. I groaned and looked at the time. It was already 1 o'clock and I don't know how I managed to last this long without food.
I lurched myself out of bed again, only to hear my stomach growl once again. I sluggishly made my way to the living area and looked at all the boys sitting. Alex was sitting alone on the couch, and the others were at the bar. They'd all gone silently as I arrived.
"Look who it is," Zack rolled his eyes.
"Wondtoeful to see you again Harley," Alex leaned back in his seat at the couch and grinned at me.
"I'm hungry," I said plainly, rolling my eyes.
"See, you're only nice when you want something," Zack groaned.
"She wasn't being nice she just wants something," Rian laughed.
"So it's more like, you only come out of hibernation when you want something," Jack corrected Zack.
"Whatever, I just need food," I ignored them.
"Well we don't have anything other than cereal until we get to tour," Zack shot.
"Then can we stop somewhere?" I shifted my weight to my other foot and put my head back, annoyed.
"I don't think anyone is up for stopping somewhere for your bratty ass," Zack scoffed at me.
"It's fine Zack. We can stop at McDonald's or something," Alex stepped in.
"What?" Zack whined.
"Yeah, it's really okay. I mean, I haven't had McDonald's in way to long," Alex laughed.
"Can I go on the slide?!" Jack jumped up from his seat, and I tried very hard not to laugh.
"Uhm only if I get to first," Rian put his hands on his hips and used a gay voice.
"No, no. I'm first," Alex shot back the same voice and chuckled.
"I'll tell the driver," Jack laughed and headed towards the drivers area, with a skip in his step.
"So, we're going to McDonalds?" I asked, to make sure.
"Yeah," Rian nodded.
"Good," I sighed, and stepped towards the couch, taking a seat beside Alex.
"Why were you in there so long?" Alex asked.
"I was on tumblr on my phone. Why do you ask so many questions?" I raised an eyebrow.
"I'm a curious motherfucker," He shrugged and smiled.
"Why do you swear so much?" I groaned and leaned into the couch.
"Now look who's asking questions," Alex chuckled.
"At least I'm not annoying about it," I shot at him.
"Hey, I wasn't trying to be a dick. You don't need to be grouchy, Alex chuckled and touched my shoulder again. I rolled my eyes.
Music started playing sort of quietly throughout the bus. "Can you not?" I glared at Jack, who had turned it on.
"Do you listen to Pierce The Veil?" Asked Alex.
"Who? No. I don't listen to music," I rolled my eyes.
"What?" Alex looked at me with shock.
"What's Vic Fuentes's full name?" Asked Jack.
"Victor, why?" Zack turned to him.
"Victoe Fuentoes," Jack burst into hysterical laughter.
"Jaime Preciadtoe," Rian laughed with him.
"Toeny Perry," Alex laughed.
"Hey, you guy's know Pirates of the Caribbean?" My brother joined in and they all nodded. "Jack Sparrtoe,"
"Curse of the black toe," Alex leaned sideways from laughing to hard.
"Bartoesa," Jack yelped.
"Are we almost to McDonalds?" I whined in frustration. I was never going to live through this tour.
"You mean McToeNails?" Jack giggled.
"EW!" I screamed, and shuddered.
"Okay that's disgusting," Alex shook his head and grinned a little.
"My poor appetite," Zack rubbed his stomach.
"Could you not, when we're just about to go to McDonalds?" Rian groaned.
"Oops," Jack shrugged.

We arrived at McDonalds and parked the bus, leaving the driver inside. We headed inside and waited in line to order. We got lucky and none of the guys were ambushed. In fact, there was barely anyone here.
We ordered our food and I got mine first. I filled my drink and found a large table far away from windows, and people in a back corner. I didn't want to be ambushed just as much as the guys. They met me over there and I rolled my eyes as they took seats on either side of me. Jack and Alex were on either side.
"What'cha drinking?" Jack asked.
"Coke," I narrowed my eyebrows at him.
"Coca' Toela, huh?" Alex wiggled his eye brows then took a sip of his own drink.
"Yuck," I spat and took a bite of my food.
"Just leave her be and maybe she won't be so grumpy later," Zack rolled his eyes at me.
"Doubtful," I rolled my eyes. "Wait, what time is it?" I stopped suddenly, like my heart had fallen out of my chest.
"It's like a little after two. Why?" Alex looked at me with bewilderment.
"I need something from the bus!" I shouted. Holy crap!
"I've got the keys but what..." I cut Alex off.
"Come on!" I yelled and grabbed his wrist. I yanked him all the way out of McDonalds before either of us could really breath.
"Unlock it!" I yelled at him.
"I was kidding! It's no even locked. The driver's in there," He raised an eyebrow at me. I rolled my eyes and pulled open the door, rushing to the bunks. I whipped out my pill bottle and grabbed a cup of water, gulping the pill down.
"Phew," I sighed.
"What time are you supposed to take those?" Alex stepped towards me.
"One at 7 a.m. and a different one at 1:45 p.m. It's none of your business," I blushed and started to walk out of the living area to get back to my food.
"Then why'd you tell me?" He chuckled.
"Shut up," I groaned.
"You contradict yourself a lot," He pointed out, putting his arms up on either side of the wall so that I can't leave the bus.
"That's nice," I mumbled sarcastically.
"Do those pills have anything to do with you being such a bitch?" He laughed.
I shot him a glare. "No!"
"Then what are they for?" Alex whined.
"None of your business okay?! Zack doesn't even know! So move before I kick your ass!" I yelled. He put his arms down instantly.
"Did you just swear?!" He looked at me shocked as I stepped past him. I spun around in confusion.
"What? No. I didn't swear," I don't recall swearing...he's trying to trick me, I know it.
"You did!" He yelled with a big grin.
"No, I didn't," I shook my head violently.
"Yes, you did," Alex grinned wide.
"Why do you enjoy torturing me?" I whined.
"You mean toeturing you?" He corrected me as he followed me out of the bus, chuckling.
"Sure, that's definitely what I meant Alex," I rolled my eyes sarcastically.
"I knew it," I could hear his smirk.
