Chapter 27
The next morning I had gotten up early. It was around ten at night back home so I knew that Kevin would be home. Letting the phone ring someone finally answered. “Richardson residence…” That’s not Kevin. “Who is this?” “Kristin. May I ask whose calling?” “This is Allison. What are you doing there?” “Oh, hi Allison. I had some time off so I came out to spend time with Dena and Kevin. But there not here.” “There not?! Do you know where there at?” “No I don’t. I just got here and was gonna call around.” “Could you? It’s early here and I don’t want to wake anyone up if there asleep.” “I will. I’ll do it first thing in the morning. When I find something out or get a hold of Kevin I’ll call you or have him call you.” “Thank you. I’d really appreciate that. Thanks Kris.” I said as I pulled my feet up on the couch. “It’s not a problem. Well I should let you go. Go try and get more rest. I know it’s
very early right about now.” “It is. Alright. I’ll talk to you later. Goodnight.” “Good morning.” She giggled. I giggled back as I just caught the joke. “Bye Kris.” “Bye.”

Hanging up the phone I leaned back on the couch and sighed. I know I shouldn’t worry. Dena was with Kev after all and I do trust him with her. Looking around the room I spotted my cell phone sitting by the television. Pulling my feet from under me I got up and grabbed my cell. Checking the messages I did see that I had one from Kevin. Checking my voices messages I received a few from him. He was just calling to tell me that he was taking Dena to Kentucky for the weekend and that he would call once they arrived safely. “Oh thank god.” I said placing my hand over my chest. I closed my phone back then headed back to bed.

Back in the room I sat down on the edge of the bed a moment and smiled. Alex had sprawled himself over the entire length of the mattress. I just shook my head before laying my hand on Alex. “Baby could you move over some?” I asked. All I got from him was a loud moan and then a “No way.” I just giggled at him. Then I ran my fingers across his back. “All-is-son, s-t-o-p!” He whined as he wiggled around. “But I wanna cuddle up with you. Please?” I whined back. He finally rolled over and glared at me as I gave my best pout. “I love you?!” I pouted. He pulled me to him and kissed my neck. “Don’t make me start calling you Nicky. Cause your whining worse then him.” I turned over and swat his arm. “That’s not funny.” “I’m sorry baby.” He said into my neck.

The following morning Alex and I were late waking up. Even after the wake up call at eight o’clock, Alex had fallen back asleep. It took a large man pounding on the door to even get Alex or myself to even budge. Unfortunately the guys had a spare key and let themselves in. Our wake up was Nick flopping his six foot two frame in between us and knocking Alex onto the floor. “What the fuck Nick!!” Alex yelled from the floor. “Morning sunshine.” Nick said kissing my cheek. “What time is it?” I asked sweetly as I patted Nick’s chest. “It’s nine o’clock. You both have less then an hour to get showered, dressed, packed and down to the buses.” Brian said standing at the bedroom door with a smirk on his face. I glanced out the door to see Howie on his cell phone. My guess his wife. I just shook my head as I looked down at Alex still settled on the floor. “Baby do you plan on staying down there?” I asked him. “I wouldn’t have fallen
on the fuckin’ floor if asshole here didn’t jump into the bed!” He said staring at Nick as he’s still holding onto me.

Hour later we were all down at the buses. Sitting on the stone wall with my arms wrapped around Alex he was finishing off his smoke when Howie walked over. “Finishing off in Cape Town then off to Canada. What are your plans for the next week and a half?” Howie asked leaning against the wall. “I don’t know about you but I’m sleeping. How bout you babe?” “I was thinking about heading out to Kentucky for a visit.” “How come?” Alex asked turning his head slightly. “Kev had called and left a message saying that he was gonna be out that way for spring break. I also would like to see Dena. I miss my little girl.” I said feeling a tear fall. Alex turn around then swiped the tear away with his thumb. “I’m sorry baby. You know what…? That’s not such a bad idea.” “What’s not a bad idea?” Brian asked as he and Nick walked over. “Ally and I are heading to Kentucky after this last show. I need to spend some time with Dena.” He said looking over at me. I smiled up at him.

The guys ended up doing shows back to back because of the sell of tickets. Alex and Brian both weren’t happy with how it turned out. The plan was to leave right after the first show until management announced the second show. But sitting in the little room with all four guys, the band and management was kind of cramped. “Okay. We’ve got these last two shows here in Cape Town then we try and re book that show in Brunswick we postponed three months ago?” Doug the guys manager said. “No.” Everyone looked over at Alex. “Excuse me?!” Doug asked looking over at Alex. “I said no.” Alex said finally looking up. “We cancelled that show because it got out of hand last time we were there. I’m not going though that again. Also we’ve got a week and a half off and I’m taking that time to spend with my two girls in Kentucky.” “AJ we need to make it up to the fans in Brunswick…” “Then you make it up. I’m taking off after this
show. I agreed to the first show and I’m dealing with the second. Meaning I’m not thrilled with it but I’m dealing… After this show Allison and I are flying out of Cape Town back to the states. I’m planning on spending my time off with my family and I don’t care what you think or what you have to say. So if you don’t like it fine I don’t give a flying rats ass. So if you’ll excuse us Allison and I are heading back to the hotel to spend some quality time before this last show.” He said grabbing my hand and leaving the office.
