a girl returning home and falling for her high school boyfriend all over again, and how close to home it hits.

About twenty minutes in, she keeps shifting around. "You okay?"

"Yeah, this couch isn't as comfortable as it looks."

Nodding my head, I walk to my bunk and grab my pillow. The side of the couch is next to the booth from the dining room table, and there’s an art to getting comfortable. Instead of letting Austin in on the secret, I decide to push my luck.

"Here scoot over," I tell her, and she gives me a weird look, then moves to the center of the couch, where I was just sitting. I put the pillow against the back of the booth and settle in, facing sideways. I put one leg up along the back of the couch and keep one rested on the floor.

Austin opens her mouth, no doubt to ask what I'm doing, but I just grab her hips and pull her to me, until her back is resting against my chest. The TV is on the wall at about the driver's seat, and now, neither of us has to turn our neck to watch it.

"Better?" I ask her, even though I can feel her whole body is tense.

She takes a deep breath and leans all the way back against me a little more. Then, she finally relaxes and pulls the blanket up over herself.

"Yes, thank you." She whispers, her voice uneven. I'm glad I affect her at least some. If I don't want my cock getting rock hard and digging into her back, I can't even think about her body leaning on me.

She’s still a bit tense, so without thinking too much, I start running my fingers up her arm slightly. She shivers and pulls the blanket tighter, but she finally relaxes.

The movie is almost over, when the door opens, and we both jump apart, as Landon walks in. He sees me and stops dead in his tracks.

"Man, I didn't expect to see you here." Then, he looks over at Austin. "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing. Just was watching a movie and got into it, when the door opening scared me." She says.

She's a fast thinker. Plus, it really is the truth; she’s just leaving out the fact that we were cuddling on the couch.

He looks over at me again. "You going back out?"

I have to fight not to roll my eyes. How can his sister believe me, but he can't?

"No." Is all I say. I don't want to have this conversation in front of Austin.

"Well, let me text Tony, and we can head out early then." He says.

Tony is our bus driver, who we picked up about three years ago. He's a big guy and has doubled as a bodyguard a few times. Tony is a good guy, doesn't put up with shit even from us, and has been great at keeping us in line. He's a big part of the reason I want to turn my life around.

On the last tour, there were many nights I couldn't sleep. When he would be driving, I'd come up and sit with him, and we'd talk. He was like me, running around, a new girl every night, until he met his wife, and she made him want to change. They were married for ten years, before she passed away from cancer.

I confessed to him about Austin, because I knew he wouldn't tell anyone. He's seen and heard plenty around here, so he could have leaked to the press for some nice money. But he hasn't, so we trust him and pay him well for it.

I was up all night with him, telling him everything. From that night on, there hasn't been another girl. He made me realize I was using the girls to push Austin away and make sure I had no chance with her or any decent girl.

Tony walks in a few minutes later. He looks like a biker with his gray hair pulled back in a low ponytail and long gray beard. His jeans have holes around the knees, and he always wears a shirt supporting our troops, police, or firefighters.

Today's shirt says, 'Stomp my flag, and I'll stomp your ass.' That pretty much sums up Tony in one shirt.

The moment he's in the door, Austin's face lights up.

"Hey, Tony. What’s on your to-do list in Atlanta this time?" Austin asks.

Tony always picks one thing to see or do, while we’re at each location, before he comes back to the bus and sleeps. Both Landon and I can drive the bus if he ever needs a break, but he's never once taken one, and he always has us to locations early.

"Georgia Aquarium. I want to see those whale sharks again."

Tony winks at me, and then does a quick walkthrough of the bus, before getting ready to head out.

"Well, I'm going to bed. I'm beat." Landon says and makes his way towards his bunk.

Turning to Austin, I run a finger lightly up her arm, like I was doing before. I’m quickly becoming addicted to touching her. "I really enjoyed watching the movie with you."

She offers me a soft smile. "Me too."

I glance over my shoulder and see Landon is in the bathroom, so I lean down and kiss her cheek. “Go get some sleep, baby girl. We have a long day tomorrow." I don't know why I just called her that, and I wait for her to call me out on it, but instead, her cheeks flush, and she ducks her head and goes to her bunk.

I settle into the passenger’s seat next to Tony and sigh.

"Going to be a fun tour, huh Dallas?" I know exactly what he means. Being so close to Austin, it's not going to be easy to hide my feelings. Day one, and I’ve failed miserably.

I have a feeling this tour is either going to make us or break us in more ways than one.

Chapter 7

Austin

I’m excited today is a down day. We
