THE BEST NIGHT EVER -- DELILAH

[KATRINA FAE PARKER]

Pix pulled her hair up into a messy pony tail as she looked in the small mirror on the bus’ bathroom. She secured the stragglers with bobby pins before turning around to pick up Aeneas. A small smile spread across her lips as she kissed his little snout and gave him a gentle squeeze. The pup would be accompanying her on her girls’ night because Harry was out somewhere but it wasn’t that she minded. He needed his time alone too; she didn’t want to smother him or anything… that would be bad. Carrying the puppy to the room, she dressed him in a light sweater so he wouldn’t get cold before packing a small overnight bag. It wasn’t like she’d be gone for days or anything, just a few hours. Placing him in his small pet carrier that looked much more like a purse, she left the bus and ventured into the hotel they’d be staying at for a few days. She didn’t know if anyone else had checked in yet but Jesse did and he made it quite clear that they’d be having girls’ night tonight. It would be fun, even if Jesse wasn’t a real girl or gay. Delilah would be there, or she hoped she would be. The brunette was hard to get a hold of now that she was married and junk. Pix was happy for her though, she was happy and that’s what mattered. Travis had seemed to grow out of his partying ways just as most of the kids in their little group. It was nice to see that Pix wasn’t alone in cleaning up. She seemed to have a few more friends than last time around… she hoped that it would stay that way.

Jesse met her in the main lobby ready to show her the way to his room. ”Bestie!” Pix exclaimed as she met him with a hug. The not so scrawny boy hugged her briefly and skipped off down the hallway and into the elevator without a word. Following him as quickly as her short legs would allow, she reached the elevator before realizing she was still carrying the dog. A pout crossed her lips as she looked down into his baggy. ”Aw, sorry for the bumpy ride. I didn’t mean to shake you up.” Jesse scowled, making a face. ”You didn’t tell me the rat was coming along.” He was only joking though and his remark was matched with a punch to his bicep. No one was going to call her baby a rat. Although he was just a “dog,” she loved him as if he were a child and wouldn’t leave him alone on the bus, especially since she didn’t know when her beau was returning. ”He couldn’t stay alone, Jesse.” she whined. ”It would have made him sad and it’d be super mean.”

Eventually, they reached his room and after the door was closed, Pix set her bags down and let Aeneas run around a bit. She took the bed closest to the balcony and started jumping on it. ”Jesse, Where’s Delilah? She promised she’d be here. I miss her.” Pix bounced; relieved she could finally be a little more of herself and not like a robot like she had been for the past few days. She had tried to bottle some of her energy as to not overwhelm Dougie and Harry and now she was able to release some of it. Sitting down crossed legged, she pulled her phone out of her pocket in order to text Delilah. Get yo’ bum over here now missy. Room 214. ”I hope she doesn’t forget about us. That would make me super sad. I don’t think I’d be able to forgive her.” She joked as she let her head hit the pillow.

This was going to be so fun; D hadn't had a lot of time for her best friends lately. Being on tour was always something busy. They had so much to do, and Delilah wasn't even in a band. Though she was married to the vocalist of WE'RE AWESOME, YOUR NOT, she spent most of her time managing merchandise for SAY MY NAME. It amused the hell out of her that she was married to Travis, and stayed on his bus, yet she was pretty much working for Tom and the other British lads. She still had fun with them and their fans, but it amused and confused some people when they remembered that she was married to Travis. It didn't matter though, what did matter, was that she was happy. And though she wished she had more time to just relax with her guy and their friends, she had to do what she had to do.

While D wished she had more time on her hands, the tiny cute little blonde that she dragged behind her with a worried look on her face wished she had less time. Although she worked with Pixy, and her father pretty much owned Travis and everything, she tried to stay out of the guys hair. It was pretty amusing, but annoying at the same time. After she worked the stand, talked to the fans, did some shopping herself, Chloe was bored. She needed something to do, or someone to entertain her or else she would loose her mind totally. So she was sort of glad that Delilah dragged her off the bus, but then again, she felt like she would be intruding. Delilah smiled a little and tugged the little blonde girl that was pouting behind her. "Come on Chloe, it'll be fun. Besides, it's a girls night."

They showed up at the hotel that they would be staying at after getting a change of clothes. They would only be gone for a few hours; she had left Travis a note, since she didn't exactly know where he was. That didn't matter though, she trusted her hubby and knew that he wouldn't do anything to hurt her. Just as she wouldn't do anything to hurt him; it was good to trust your significant other. Even if it took them a while to get to where they were now, they were happy and that's all that mattered. Chloe hit the button for the elevator and slipped into it as D got the text from Katrina. HOLD YOUR HORSES SMALL FAIRY LOVE. I'm on my way. Brought a bit of a surprise. >> D enjoyed doing girls nights, she even sprung for room service charges every time they went over board. They got out of the elevator and Chloe looked over at her nervously. "Oh come on, I swear you'll have fun." She told the little blonde person as she dragged her to the room and flung the door open. "LOVES! THE FUUUUUUN, HAS ARRIVED!"

Of course D had to be loud and silly and funny. That was part of girls night, being fun and silly and stuff. Chloe couldn't help but giggle as she stepped in behind Delilah with her over night bag. "She dragged me along. Sorry to intrude."[/color]

Feeling her phone buzz on the mattress, Pix grabbed it excitedly to read Delilah’s text. Thank goodness she was still coming; it would have sucked if it was going to be just her and Jesse again. Not that she didn’t enjoy his company… she just didn’t want Harry to get the wrong idea. If Delilah was joining them, he would probably feel more at ease. Sure, Pix slept with Jesse but that was only one time and she didn’t think of him that way. She figured that Tom would have spilled the beans about it but Harry didn’t seem to mind that much or he was oblivious to it. Whatever the case was, she was happy that he wasn’t one of those crazy boyfriends who didn’t let their lady hang out with any other guys. Pix had come a long way in the past year, and she wasn’t going to throw it all away. Didn’t she deserve a little bit more credit than that? Besides why would she go with someone when she had a very delicious beefcake at home? It was really a no brainer.

”She’s coming! Jesse! Oh my god. It’s going to be amazing.” Pix started her bouncing again, blinded by her excitement. Aeneas barked, curious as to what his mother was doing. Peering over the edge of the bed she looked at him as he stood on his hind legs trying to jump up. She picked him up and held him close. ”Shh, you’re not supposed to be in here.” Jesse rolled his eyes as he flipped through the channels. ”He’s going to get us kicked out and it’ll be all your fault.” Pix shook her head in denial and shoved the dog in the opening of her hoodie. ”Shut up, Jesse. He’ll be quiet. He’s just as excited as I am.” It was obvious that Jesse didn’t particularly care for dogs, probably because he never owned one. Jesse didn’t know the joy of owning a pet and how good it felt to have them cuddle next to you at night. Aeneas was like her personal heater; ‘cause everyone knew that she gained weight, but still was cold. She loved him for it, and he was quiet content cuddling at any second of the day, unless he was playing.

Just then the door opened to reveal Delilah and her little buddy. ”DELILAH!” She stated loudly before noticing Chloe. ”Psh, intruding? That’s nonsense. We’re always looking for some more estrogen,” Pix got up from her perch on the bed to go greet them properly. ”Oh, Chloe, that’s Jesse. He’s not a girl obviously but he always participates in girl’s night because –“ Pix stopped herself from embarrassing her friend. ”Because he loves us.” Nice recovery, really smooth. Pix grabbed Chloe by the wrist and dragged her further into the room to make her feel more welcome. ”So… because you’re fresh meat, I think you should tell us a little about you before we kick things off.” Sitting back on the bed, she got comfortable, glad that her other friend was now here. ”OH and Delilah has to tell us how her married life is ‘cause I haven’t talked to her in forever and it’s not fair.” Pix pouted lightly but it was soon replaced by an amused grin.
