THE TRUMP INTERNATIONAL
HOTEL AND TOWER
NEW YORK CITY
4:31 A.M.

SLOWLY, ELISA WAS HAVING LESS NIGHTMARES ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED EACH DAY. There would be a few times where she would start shaking in her sleep and mumble things like "no," or "stop," where the boys would careful wake her up from the nightmare and comfort her to let her know that it was okay, but she's getting there; that didn't stop the boys' protectiveness from continuing to grow. Last night, the four of them had stayed up really, really late even though they had a busy schedule the next day and had gone to bed, probably at one in the morning, maybe three. Since Kevin and Joe have been trying to get Nick and Elisa to confess and the fact that neither one of them wanted to wake her up, they carefully set her in Nick's bed since his room was the closet, making the two youngest members sleep in the same bed — Kevin and Joe hoping that the two would confess how they really feel about each other.

Both of them were fast asleep till a sudden bright light from a lamp turned on and their security, Big Rob gently shook the two of them, waking them up for the big day. "Alright, I'm up," Elisa mumbled sleepily.

She wanted to stand up but when she lifted her head, she placed it back down onto her pillow, rubbing her green eyes to try to shake the sleepiness off. Even though she's preferred to stay in the warm bed, she knew that she had to get up as she forced herself to climb out of the warm blankets and get ready for the day. After she was done getting ready, she didn't notice that she was nearly falling asleep at the table till she heard clicking sounds and the sound of something metal hitting the table. She looked up and saw that Kevin had tossed his fork onto the table across from her and Nick to get them to wake up so, he could tell them the schedule.

"Okay, so here's today's schedule. At 7 a.m., you—" Kevin, Nick, and Elisa glanced over at Joe who interrupted by shaking the table.

"Earthquake. Just kidding," Joe smirked.

Kevin rolled his eyes and looked back at the schedule.

Joe shook the table. "Aftershock."

Even though she was listening to the schedule, Elisa and Nick were watching as Joe kept getting the breakfast; what he wanted for it.

Kevin stared at his phone, reading the schedule. "Nine a.m., post-show taping. Nine-fifteen, finish Good Morning, America. Then we depart for Central Park to finish our music video. We film it in 3-D..."

As they listened to the schedule, the sound of whispering got their attention and they looked over to see the waiter leaving their hotel room.

"How long was she standing there?" Kevin asked.

"Five seconds," Big Rob told them.

"Joe, she was standing there because you're like: Can I have the jelly, please? Do you have any waffles?" Nick mocked his brother.

"Pancakes will do." Kevin mocked as well.

"Did you see her buy the quake joke? That works every time," Joe said, shaking the table.

"You've been doing the earthquake thing since, like, third grade." Elisa said, Joe shook the table again.

"Stop doing that."

"It's awesome."

"Guys, you're gonna play with more earthquake games again." Kevin said, trying to get them to act serious.

"Three to four, Kevin picks up some new pajamas." Joe said. Him, Elisa, and Nick did a high-five, laughing.

Kevin shook the table, mocking Joe. "Aftershock. Can I have your number?"

"Yo, guys, we got to go." Big Rob said, getting their attention.

"Where are we going?" Joe asked, having no idea what was going on.

"Joe, just follow." Kevin said.

The four of them left with Big Rob. But once they were in the car and on the way, they got stuck in traffic big time. Cars were beeping their horns as they remained stuck in one place. Kevin, Nick, Elisa were stressing out about messing their show because of the traffic while Joe was playing a game on his phone.

"This is a mess."

"Unbelievable."

"We're gonna be late for our show if the traffic doesn't let up."

"Yes, I just beat my high score." Joe said, staring down at his phone.

"Big Rob, this traffic's killing us. We're on in another hour, guys." Kevin said.

"Helicopter?" Nick suggested.

"Already on it." Big Rob said, dialing a number and heard the person on the other side answered. "Yes, sir. Tenth and Broadway."

"That's so close," Kevin says.

"Yeah, but we're gonna have to leave the car here." Nick says.

"Guys, I put this car on my credit card—"Joe reminded.

Suddenly, screaming and squealing was heard as a bunch of girls and boys holding posters appeared out of nowhere, banging on the window, staring directly at where the four of them sat — giving them no idea how the fans found them.

"And why are there fans here!?" Joe added.

"How did they find it was us?" Kevin asked.

"No!" Joe yelled over the screaming fans. Nick and Elisa covered their ears to try to block out the loud screams.

"Stay inside." Big Rob told them, stepping outside the car and closing the door behind him.

"Let's go through the roof," Elisa said.

The four of them took off their seatbelts and the first one to climb out through the roof was Kevin as he stepped onto the car in front of them, hearing the fans scream even louder. Next was Elisa as she stepped onto the car in front of them too with Nick following close behind. Lastly, Joe was the next one to join them. They were about to go but looked at Big Rob.

"Big Rob, come on!"

"Go, go. Save yourselves." Big Rob told them.

They hopped off of the car and looked back at the fans. The minute they saw the fans run after them, the four of them immediately took off running as fast as they could. They ran past a car but Joe was the one who stopped at the red car where the two girls sat with a smirk on his face. Elisa noticed this and gave a groan as she grabbed Joe and pulled him away as they started running again with the mob of fans still chasing after them. At one point, the four of them quickly pretended to be four random people sitting on stairs while on their phones and once the mob of fans ran past, they quickly jumped up and took off running again. It didn't last long for the fans to run after them again.

As the they ran alongside the sidewalks, the four of them went down a corner only for them to come to a halt when the mob of fans appeared in front of them. They whirled around and ran off in the other direction with the fans chasing them. As they reached the parking lot and ran inside, they headed straight for the elevator to get to the roof, the screams not that far off behind them. As they reached the elevator, Elisa started tapping repeatedly on the up button while Kevin and Nick tried to open the elevator and when the elevator made the ding sound, opening its doors, Kevin, Nick, and Elisa quickly stepped inside the elevator.

"Joe!" Kevin reached forward and grabbed his brother, yanking him inside the elevator just in time for the elevator doors to close while the mob of fans ran up the stairs, still screaming and holding posters.

Once they reached the roof, the four of them took off running towards the helipad where the helicopter was currently waiting for them. Hearing the screams behind them and looking over their shoulders real quick, the four of them started running faster than they could towards the helipad, their fans currently behind them as their screams grew louder and louder. When they reached the helipad, they quickly went up the stairs and straight towards the helicopter only to find that somehow, Big Rob was already inside, waiting for them. Once they were inside the helicopter, they were able to catch their breaths from all that running while the helicopter took off for their show.

The crowd cheered their names and clapped as loud as they could. Music then started playing, giving them the signal that the concert was starting soon. And as the music continued, a platform came up with the four of them standing on it.

Kevin, Nick, and Elisa had their guitars while Joe had a microphone. Kevin, Nick, and Elisa started playing their guitars while Joe waited for his chance to start the song and when it was, he started singing as the platform that they were standing slowly began to lower them down to the stage.

I woke up on my roof with my brothers
There's a whale in the pool
With my mother
And our dad paints the house
Different colors
Where would we be
If we couldn't dream?

The platform reached the stage and the four of them stepped onto the stage, heading towards their spots on the stage, all four of them singing.

And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We are more than you think
So call us freaks but
That's just the way we roll

The four of them switched spots again: Nick, Kevin, and Elisa played their guitars while Joe took the next verse.

You got moves
I've got shoes
Let's go dancing
Pop and lock
Battle dance
Against Hanson
If we lose, all the girls,
They'll be laughing
Where would we be
If we couldn't dream?

Still playing their guitars, Kevin, Nick, and Elisa joined Joe in on the next verse.

And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We are more than you think
So call us freaks but
That's just the way we roll

Cause we're old enough to know
We're never letting go
Cause that's just the way we roll

Nick, Kevin, and Elisa stopped playing their guitars for a minute and started clapping, getting the crowd to do the same thing.

Cause I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it

Kevin, Nick, and Elisa stopped clapping and start playing their guitars while the four of them kept singing.

We are wild
We are free
We know more than you think
So call us freaks but
That's just the way we roll

And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We know more than you think
So call us freaks but
That's just the way we roll

That's just the way we roll
Oh
That's just the way we roll

The crowd cheered and clapped as they came to a end. And as they continued to perform, they had a blast cause they weren't just performing. They were doing what they loved with music.
