I see Brittany walking alone to the tour bus. Things are awkward between Britt and me. Our duet has never been this weird. Something is growing between us for a long time, but I keep ignoring it. It's just hard to be an off camera couple while being an on camera couple. I wonder how she is feeling about this.

Wait. Victoria said something about staying all friends. mmm. But Britt and mine's duet is one big awkward mess right now. We have to fix this, for the best of the team. She probably doesn't even like me so there's no problem with me telling her that I like her right?

'He Britt,' I say running towards her, 'I ehh, I have to tell you something.' 'Okay,' says Brittany, 'go for it.' I look around to see if anyone is here. I don't want anyone else to know that I like her. 'I ehh, I really like you,' I say. Brittany starts to laugh. 'So this afternoon Victoria asked if we all can just keep it professional, and not even a day later you're telling me that you like me,' she says laughing. 'Yea,' I say, 'that sounds really stupid. But our duet was a mess and because I'm pretty sure you don't like me I thought that saying this would only fix things.'

'Sounds like you actually thought,' says Brittany and she laughs. 'Shut up,' I say smiling, 'I can think, I just don't do it very often.' 'But your feeling was right,' says Brittany, 'I don't like you like that, so hopefully this will help you get over it and then our duet will be as it was.'

'Yea,' I say kind of disappointed, I know we can't be together, but somewhere I hoped she liked me. But she doesn't so I just have to get over this.

I'm haning out with Isaac. We decided to stay a little longer on stage just to dance. 3 hours until our very first show. I sit down for a minute, I'm exhausted. I see Isaac is exhausted too, that's new. He's literally never exhausted, he can just go on and on for hours anytime.

'He Isaac,' I say, 'I'm really sorry for you man, it's really throwing you off right?' Isaac stops. 'How do you know?' he asks. 'It's clearly,' I say, 'besides I'm your best friend, I see everything.' Isaac sits down. 'I don't know man,' he says, 'it's just really confusing.

'Maybe it's supossed to be confusing, that means that it means something to you,' I say. 'Why is it bothering me?' he asks, 'I don't want to be bothered by it.' 'Matters of the heart,' I say and smile. 'Stupid heart,' says Isaac smacking the ground. 'Welcome,' I say, 'to life.'

'Oh and besides,' I say after a while, 'the ground can't do anything about it.' I stand up. 'And now,' I say, 'now are you going to forget this and you're just going back to being really excited about this tour because it is going to be AMAZING.' 'Yea,' says Isaac and he stands up, 'AMAAAZING with like three A's.' I smile.

We decided to go check in on the other. When we walk to the bus we see them walking towards us. 'Lamar,' Isaac says when they are too far to hear us, 'I don't know if I can do this.' 'Ofcourse you can,' I say, 'just act.' 'I don't think I'm ready for that,' he says. I hear confusing in his voice. I want to say to him that it just takes time and that everything will be alright and that he'll have something else on his mind as soon as we start the shows, but the others will hear it if I say it, so I'll say it later. If I don't forget it.

'Ready for the first show?' Asks Briar as soon as they reached us. 'Totally,' says Isaac. 'I'm so ready for it,' I say. This is probably one of the most excited days of my life.
