*Nikki*

Tour has gone by really great so far, and thankfully there have been no issues.

It felt different at first, considering last time we toured we were all on our drug of choice, and no we're clean.

Mal and I have made the best of things while on tour, especially during our days off. We avoided Arizona as much as we could like we always did before, and enjoyed our favorite spots.

Like today, we are in New Orleans, playing a show outside in a field, and Mal is the only one who has no idea whatsoever that tonight the show is going to be extra special.

Right now I was with her in my dressing room trailer, since we shared one here. I tuned my bass as Mal was getting ready, tying up her boots, already in her stage outfit.

I then laid back and smirked at her.

She then noticed me looking at her and chuckled.

"What?" she asked.

"Just can't believe I have the most amazing, most gorgeous..." I smirked, making her laugh and walk over, moving my bass aside before straddling my waist. "the most sweetest.... Greatest...."

"Keep talking, big boy," she smirked, making me laugh as I pulled her into a kiss.

"Smart.... Sexy.... Strong.... Beautiful.... " I said in between kisses. "I love you so, so damn much."

"I love you, too," she said, smiling as she twirled locks of my hair in her fingers before kissing me one last time and I decided to deepen it.

"Nikkiiiiii, we have to go on in a few minutes," she laughed.

"Then let's make it quick," I smirked as we kissed and she giggled and then grinds her hips right into mine, making me moan as I felt myself getting hard as Mal started to take her jacket and top off

That's when the door opened and we jumped.

"Oh shit! Sorry, sorry!!" Zutaut shouted, quickly walking out as we groaned in annoyance.

"What the fuck dude!?!!" I snapped, helping to cover Mal as he shut the door.

"How about knocking next time, damn it!!!" Mal snapped as she got up and fixed herself.

"Sorry!!" J-Just came to say that the Crue's gotta be to the stage in 10!" He said from behind the door as I tried to adjust myself.

"Got it!!" she shouted as she pulled her top back on, grabbing her jacket.

"Ugh, great," I groaned. "Of all the things that could have blueballed me, it just HAD to be Tom Zutaut."

"Baby, I'll fix that up for you right after the show," she said, her jacket already on as she grabbed a brush and ran it through her hair a bit.

"I can't just walk out there with a raging boner, those fangirls will eat me alive," I said. "Quite literally, depending."

She gave me a look as I pouted my lip, giving her puppy dog eyes.

"Doug's gonna skin you alive for being late!" she scolded.

"Pleeeeeeease?" I begged.

She sighed with an eye roll. "You're lucky I love you," she said. "Come here."

She walked over and I laughed as we kissed passionately, me undoing my belt buckle as she knelt down in front of me.

I waited outside the bathroom for Mal, my bass strapped to my back, holding the box of Altoids for her as she rinsed her mouth out so nobody would smell anything off in her breath.

Let's just say thanks to touring, I was holding back more than I thought.... Hehehe......

She then walked out, clothes now cleaned, make up and hair fixed, giving me a stern look as she crossed her arms at me.

I gave her an innocent smile, holding up the mints. "I'm sorry.....?"

She scoffed, trying not to smile and failing as she took the box from me.

"Like I said, you are so lucky that I love you," she said, making me laugh as she popped three into her mouth. "Now get your ass on stage."

I snickered and kissed her cheek before rushing over to the stage where the others were waiting.

"Finally!" Tommy laughed. "What took so long?!"

"Long story. You guys ready?" I asked.

"You bet," Mick smiled as Vince and Tommy nodded enthusiastically.

"Alright, let's go boys," I smiled as the intercom announced us and we ran onto the stage, the sun shining down on us and the crowd cheering loudly.

*Mallory*

We finished the fourth song and I grabbed some water from nearby while Hannah stood next to me moving her hair from her face.

Emi and Allie stood at the other side also getting ready for the next song.

"Alright, Houston!!" Vince said. "Hope you're all enjoying the show!! Its good to be back!!"

The crowd cheered as we all took our positions.

"This next one's something different, but the Same Ol Situation," Vince smirked, and we all scoffed and laughed at his pun as the music started.

"Come on, girls!!" Vince shouted into the mic as we danced along to the beat and soon as Vince started to sing, we started to dance, kind of mimicking his usual dance moves a little at the start.

She's got an alligator bag
Top hat to match
Dressed in black on black
She's got a Filipino girlie
She claims is her friend
I tell you boys, you just gotta laugh
Now I used to call her Cindy
She changed her name to "Sin"
I guess that's the name of her game
Yeah, I really used to love her
Then, the kitty she discovered
It's got to be a sexual thing

Now all around the world
Girls will be girls
It's the same old, same old situation
It's the same old, same old ball and chain

I say no, no, no
No, no, no

All of a sudden, Vince ran over and grabbed my hand, pulling me to the center stage, and I knew immediately what he was thinking

"Check this out!" he said into the mic as shook my head as he encouraged me.

What is he doing!? We didn't rehearse this at soundcheck!!

I looked at him in shock, then at the crowd, who seemed surprised, but then quickly gave in so I wouldn't miss the song and started to sing.

Introduced me to her lover
In a cellophane dress
Then they bid me a sweet farewell
Last time I saw them
They were kissing so softly
To the sound of wedding bells

The crowd cheered loudly as I sang, making me smile as then Vince joined in for the chorus.

Well, all around the world
Girls will be girls
It's the same old, same old situation
It's the same old, same old ball and chain
It's the same old, same old situation
(Every day it's the...)
It's the same old, same old ball and chain

I say no, no, no
No, no, no

"Alright," Vince said as we headbanged a bit while I helped hyped the crowd up with Nikki, then Vince spoke. "I'm gonna need you boys to do some rock n roll. Come on now! Whoo!!

Mick began his guitar solo as I high fived Vince and ran back to my spot, seeing Nikki had switched with Hannah so that he was now on the platform with me, and Mick did the same with Allie so he was on the platform next to Emi. 

Huh, guess this is something they decided to do.

Hannah and Allie danced alongside Vince as Mick continued to play his solo. 

We clapped along to the beat, hyping the crowd as they cheered, and soon Vince started to sing again.

It's the same old, same old situation
It's the same old, same old ball and chain...

We all clapped and sang along to the beat as he sung the song.

I clapped along as suddenly everyone turned to me and Nikki stopped and knelt down in front of me, pulled something out of his pocket and showed it to me and I froze as I realized what it was.

An engagement ring box.

(Picture: Mallory's Engagement Ring)

The crowd nearly had me going deaf as I covered my mouth in surprise, Vince continuing to sing.

Girl, it's the same old, same old situation
It's the same old, same old ball and chain

"Well?" Nikki lipped over the noise.

I laughed and quickly nodded as I jumped into his arms, him catching me as everyone cheered, then we then quickly got back to it, me singing and Nikki playing next to me as we continued, him also singing with me.

You know we just gotta say
All around the world
Girls will be girls

It's the same old, same old situation
It's the same old, same old ball and chain
I tell you girl, it's the same old, same old situation
It's the same old, same old ball and chain, yeah
Yeah, no-no
Yeah, yeah
No, no
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

The crowd cheered loudly as I then jumped into Nikki's arms, kissing him as he spun me around.

"Make some fuckin' noise for Nikki and Mallory!!" Vince shouted into the mic as Tommy kicked his drums happily and everyone around us cheered, and the crowd cheered loudly as well.

I smiled and felt my face going red with blush as Nikki hugged me and we shared a kiss, and soon we continued the rest of the show.

*Nikki*

Soon the show ended and we said our goodbyes, the girls were first to exit before us and once I was off the stage, Mal immediately ran into me, knocking the air out of me as I caught her and laughed.

"You asshole!!" she laughed. "I love you so much!!!"

"I got you good, didn't I?" I smirked as she kissed me, her legs wrapped around my waist as I held her.

"Uhh, yeah!! How long were you planning to do that!?" She smiled.

"Since we got back together, of course, but I figured it was best we wait," I said. "I started planning after we left New Mexico, though. Everyone was in on it, and Mick helped me pick out the ring."

"You sneaky ass!!" she screamed out and I laughed as she kissed me passionately while I spun her around.

"A round of applause for the happy couple!!" Tommy screamed out, and everyone applauded, cheered, and whistled happily, some sound techs throwing white confetti in the air over us as Allie came up with a bouquet of flowers and gave it to Mal.

"Everyone, thank you so much for making this all possible," I announced to the everyone around us. "To ask this woman to be my bride, to even be with her at all, its a privilege and I plan to live up to making her happy for the rest of my natural days. Mal, I love you, baby, til the end of times."

She smiled as everyone awwed and we shared a kiss before we all went to gather our things and head to the bus and soon we were off to the next town.

I sat in the backroom of the bus, staring out at the road as the sun started to set. Mal laid against my chest as we sat by the window.

She continued to admire her ring, a big smile on her face as I kissed her temple.

"You know, this is a big upgrade from the Ring Pop," she smirked, making me laugh as she giggled.

"True," I said. "But do you really like it?"

"Baby, of course I do! Hell, I would have even said yes without the ring," she said. "I did the first time didn't I?"

I nodded in agreement as she curled up next to me.

"Now, we can play this out a lot more differently than some shotgun wedding in Vegas, but if that's what you want, then I'm all for it," I said as I put her down. "Whatever you want, I'm all for it."

She thought about it but then nodded. "Despite the shotgun wedding being great, I think this time I would like a regular wedding reception," she said.

I smiled and nodded. "Whatever you want, baby. If you want, we can even have it after the tour ends." I suggested.

"Done," she smiled. "I'll call Sharise and Heather once we get to the next town so that we can start making plans!" 

I nodded as we looked outside.

"My god... I don't think I can be anymore happier than I am now," she said, looking up as her head rested on my chest.

I smiled as I kissed her again.

"I love you," she murmured.

I smiled and kissed her lips softly. "I love you, too."

We continued to watch the sunset, curled up together before the sun was gone and we went to my bunk to sleep.

I'm the happiest guy on Earth right now....

~~~~~

Something happy for you guys during these crazy times. ❤

Hoping everyone is staying at home making the best out of this situation. Wash your hands and stay safe out there, loves!! 🌻
