What Happened After

(Danielle's point of view)

"Not far from the start, kidnap my heart." The band finished the last note of the song in the sound booth, while I dialed my mom's number. I was going to talk to her about coming back for the week, because the guys, (Mostly Ritchie and Mason) wanted to visit Devon and Gabby. I finally agreed to ask my mom just to get them to shut up. Key word ask, meaning it wasn't my fault if she said no.

"Hey Mom." I said when she picked up.

"Hey honey, How are you and the band doing?" She asked.

"Good. Can I ask you something?" I asked apprehensively, biting a finger nail. Something I always did when I was nervous.

"Of course Danni.""Can the guys and I come visit for a week? The guys and I really miss Devon and Gabby." I explained. At that same moment the guys came out.

"What did she say?" Ritchie and Mason mouthed to me. I held up a finger signaling them to be quiet.

"I'll have to talk to your father first. Can I call you back with an answer?" Mom asked.

"Yea, Sure. Talk to you later." I said, hanging up.

"What did she say?" Mason and Ritchie took that as the time to pounce.

"She said she'd have to talk to dad, then she'll call me back with an answer." I explained. They nodded with hopeful looks on their faces.

"Who wants to go get something to eat?" KK asked. We all nodded then turned to walk out of the studio to the parking lot.

After we came back from 'Dairy Queen' our stomachs full, my phone rang.

"Hello?" I asked, after I had picked up.

"Danni, I've talked to your father, and he said yes. The only problem is that we'll be on another one of those 'Who did it?' crimes conventions." She explained.

"I'll be there, so what's the problem?" I asked.

"Well okay then I guess it's settled. When will you and the band be here?" She asked.

"Probably sometime tomorrow around twelve." I explained, as Ritchie and Mason looked hopeful.

"Okay see you then." Then she hung up.

"Guys, we're taking a trip…"

Meanwhile…


(Gabby's point of view)

"You say you always keep your word, show me what your just a little faster!" The ending of 'Just a Little Faster' blasted though the ear buds of my iPod as I was walking home from school.

They're probably fighting again, my mind nagged me.

My parents have been fighting a lot lately. They think I don't know, but I can hear them screaming at each other, though the walls of my bed room at night. They think I'm some little kid, not know what they fight about, but I do. They fight about my father coming home late at night and sometimes not at all. They think I don't feel the tension in the room when we're all in a room together, but I do. They think I don't know about them, thinking about getting a divorce, but I do. I know everything…

I sigh as I turn in to the driveway of my house. As I open the door I turn my ipod off, and close the front door I heard them yelling. This was one of the few afternoons my dad was off and home. Oh joy…

"You're coming home late and sometimes not at all, you're cheating!" My mother spat at my farther.

"Just because I stay the night at work, Does not mean I am cheating, Kate!" My farther snapped back.

I tiptoed over to the archway of the living room to where they were and peered in. They were to busy screaming at each other to notice me. It's strange the room looks so cozy and yet, the tension could be cut with a knife at the rate it was building.

With a sigh under my breath, I made my way up to my room. You know you'd think I'd be happy considering it's spring break, but you can never be happy in this house anymore. And I'm sick of it! What kind of person can't be happy in their own house? Their house is supposed their one place of escape!

Once in my room, I grabbed a duffle bag out of my closet, and packed clothes for a week, and other things like: hairbrush, make-up, deodorant, and phone. Then I headed down the steps, and into the kitchen I wrote my parents a note saying where I would be spending my spring break, and why. Heading out the door I grabbed an apple, turning my iPod up all the way and then headed to my escape, Devon's…

Devon's mom answered the door when I got there.

"Hi Momma T." I faked enthusiasm, only Devon knew what was going on with my parents.

"Hi Gabby." She said, smiling a motherly smile at me while letting me in.

"Is Dev home yet?" I asked her.

"She's upstairs doing some homework." Mrs. T replied, moving aside to let me in. I forced a smile as my thanks, as I started making my way up the stairs.

"Oh Gabby I'm glad you're here. I have a surprise for you and Devon that'll be here tomorrow." She called after me.

I nodded to so I heard her then continued my way up the stairs.

Good, Bad, Okay, or down right horrible?
