"Joseph! Get back here!" an angry guy with headphones yelled. Bailey turned around backstage to see Joe rushing up to her. "You're on in 60 seconds!"

"Bailey!" he exclaimed, a little out of breath. "Look, I know everything is crazy right now and I kinda left you with the wrong impression earlier and I'm sorry." he inhaled deeply. "I can see it in your eyes that you're upset, and I really want to fix this! Knowing I wouldn't be able to concentrate on stage with this on my mind, I just had to -"

"Joseph! 10 seconds!" the guy yelled frantically.

"Alright, alright!" Joe yelled back. "Ok, I'm getting yelled at. I have to go. Wait up for me after the show, ok?" he quickly finished, jogging back to the man. All Bailey could do was nod her head, trying to comprehend everything he just spilled.

Sarah rubbed her forehead after watching a small smile form on Bailey's face. "So maybe there is hope." she stated, looking over at Sarah who shrugged.

Bailey scrunched her nose up at her, then made her way to the side of the stage, watching the boys go on. She rolled her eyes after noticing Tori in her spot in front of the barricade, holding a clipboard and wearing a headset. To her amusement, she watched as Tori focused all her attention on Joe. Smiling and winking at him. She wanted to puke on her, but instead she shook her head and walked away.

"Eh, I'll be on the bus." Bailey stated, then left Sarah there backstage. While staring out at Tori from behind the curtain, Sarah sighed, shaking her head in disappointment.

Bailey crashed on the free bunk on the Jonas bus, which happened to be the one closest to the ground, right under Joe's. For the past hour or two, she had been laying there, caught up in her thoughts. Thoughts of how she wanted Joe, how he acted when she was in front of him, why Tori was even here and how he rushed up to her before the show.

Out of annoyance and frustration, Bailey flung another lollipop at her homemade, amateur dartboard that was taped to the wall of the bunk down by her feet. The stick stuck in the center of the paper that had a poorly scribbled imitation of Tori's face on It. It was a simple, lopsided circle for a head, with beady, uneven eyes and poofy dark hair that was scribbled on with a eyeliner pencil that was nearby. The head was accompanied with a set of flame red devil horns, with the word 'SKANK' written underneath. After flinging another lollipop at the sheet, Bailey laughed to herself as she hit the replica of Tori between the eyes.

"What's so funny?" she heard Joe's voice ask, seconds before the curtain to her bunk was pulled open. Instantly, Bailey fumbled for the picture, crumpling it in her fist so Joe couldn't see it. "What's that?" he smirked.

"It's nothing you need to worry about." Bailey replied, looking over at him as he squatted down next to her.

"Oh, really?" his eyes stared into hers between the dark chunks of hair that hung in his line of sight. Smirking, he charged forward to grab the paper from her. Quickly, she moved her hand behind her back as he fell on top of her. "Come on, let me see!" he whined as he sat on top of her. She stared up at him as she kept her hands hidden behind her back.

"No." she said with a chuckle, then flipped him off of her and onto the floor of the tour bus. Quickly, she ripped up the paper, crumbled it back up into a ball, then tossed it behind the couch at the front of the bus before Joe could get up to see anything. Bailey squeaked as he unexpectedly tackled her from behind onto the couch.

"I want to see!" he sounded like a little kid.

"Joe!" she exclaimed, a little out of breath. He had knocked the wind out of her. "Get off." she tried to roll out from under his body, but he couldn't. His legs were tightly straddling her waist from behind. Yeah, it looked pretty wrong.

"What was it?" he continued to question her as she stopped squirming from underneath him. He loosened his grip around her, allowing her to flip over so he was sitting on her stomach. Looking down at her face, he smiled. "Was it a secret love note?"

"Yep." she lied, trying not to laugh at his expression.

"What'd you do with it?" he asked, looking down at her hands. She laughed, making him grab her hands, pinning them down up above her head. "I'm not letting you go until you tell me." his warm breath made the tiny hairs on her neck stand on end. His face and body were hovering only inches from hers as his legs were still clamped around her waist.

"You say that as if I want you to let me go." she smirked, completely forgetting everything that happened earlier. Forgetting about his previous attitude, Tori, her job, Ross. She'd been missing this for an entire two months and she wasn't about to just push away what was happening because of all that. The butterflies made a reappearance in her stomach and she wasn't going to fight them. She missed this feeling.

Joe let go of Bailey's hands, but still held himself up above her. Once again, he got lost into her ocean blue eyes. Slowly, he began to smile. He had missed this as well, being with her, touching her. Bailey couldn't help herself. She grasped the center of Joe's shirt and pulled him down to her. Sparks flew as she attached her lips to his, her grip on his shirt tightening.

The slam of the tour bus door caused them to pull apart. Bailey quickly sat up, making Joe fall back onto her legs from where he was sitting on her stomach. Bailey was surprised to see Tori standing there infuriated.

"Are you serious?" she screamed, her face turning a bit read. Bailey looked at her confusedly, then looked at Joe to see him staring at her in shock, as if he had done something wrong. "Joe, you said you were done with her!" Bailey's jaw dropped as she looked at Joe.

"I did not!" he exclaimed, standing up from her lap.

"Then why did you say you'd go out with me if you're still hung up on her?" Tori questioned, crossing her arms in front of her.

"Please tell me you two are joking." Bailey stated in disbelief.

"I took you out once! And that was out of sympathy for that messed up face." he admitted. Bailey could tell by Tori's expression that that comment stung.

"-And what's your excuse for the other two dates?" she questioned, glaring at him. It took a lot for her to not look at Bailey for her reaction, even though she wanted to see the pain on her face.

"Other two dates?" Bailey exclaimed, standing up herself.

"You're unbelievable." Tori glared at Joe, then stomped off the bus. Instinctively, Joe started to go after her, but then stopped after noticing Bailey's face.
