“Who ate my fucking yogurt!” Cash bellowed through the tour bus.

“Nobody ate your special yogurt, freak.” Jack kicked his feet up on the table.

“Get your feet off the table.” Wade smacked him and his shoes landed with a hollow thud against the bus’s floorboards.

“All I want is to just enjoy my yogurt and I can’t because you assholes keep eating my shit.” Cash slammed the tiny refrigerator door closed.

“I kind of agree with him.” Wade crossed his arms. “There was a full jar of pickles in there last week and all I’m saying is that the jar is practically empty now.” He gave them all a skeptical look.

“More important,” Mia interjected, “is why I have to step over dirty underwear on the way to my room?” She gave all of them a disgusted look because no one could tell whose underwear it was anyway and none of them would admit to being the culprit.

“Why does she get the big bedroom, again?” Wade asked, hooking his thumb in the direction of the back master suite which was only slightly bigger than their bunks but it had its own bathroom.

Mia gave Wade an incredulous look. “Do I really have to answer that?”

Wade shrugged.

“Can I just make a general statement?” Jack stood up. “Flush.” He made a pointed look at all of them. “All I’m gonna say.” He held his hands up and then sat back down.

“This is supposed to be fun.” He got up and moved around the bus. “Instead I’m living with my grandmother and the food police.” He looked pointedly at Wade and Cash.

“I just ask for a little common courtesy and you call me the food police?” Wade said.

“I think you’re the grandmother and I’m the food police.” Cash corrected Wade with a little uncertainty.

“Whatever.” Wade shook his head. “The fact is, those,” he pointed on the floor beside the bunk, “are not my underwear.”

“Well, they’re not mine!” Cash said immediately and they both looked at Jack.

“Babies, the two of you.” Jack shook his head and walked over to the underwear. Using a pencil to scoop them up he inspected them. With a broad smile, he said, “Could be mine.” He shrugged. “I was probably in rush last night.” He raised his eyebrows toward Mia.

“Pig, much?” Mia crossed her arms over her chest.

The bus stopped, jarring them. The door opened and the driver stuck his head in to tell them they had arrived. The Radio City Music Hall lights blared at them as Jack looked out the bus window. He should have been excited to be
