Nick ran down the hall and knocked on Kevin’s door.
They were in Europe on tour. He was only fourteen. Kevin opened the door and
saw him.
“Nick,
what is it,” Kevin said.
“I need
to talk to you, it’s important,” Nick said going in. Kevin closed the door.
Nick sat down. Kevin sat down.
“What is
it,” Kevin said. Nick looked at Kevin and quietly told him what happened. Kevin
got up and paced.
“I can’t
believe him,” Kevin said.
“What do
I do,” Nick said.
“Nothing,
I’ll take care of it, Nick, go back to your room and get some sleep,” Kevin
said.
“Thanks,
Kevin, for listening,” Nick said.
“You’re
welcome, Nick, goodnight,” Kevin said. Nick went to his room. Kevin called Brian.
“What’s
up, cuz,” Brian said after hearing his voice.
“Do me a
favor, from now on, stick close to Nick’s side, hang out with him, just keep
him busy,” Kevin said.
“What’s
going on,” Brian said.
“Just do
it, Brian, keep him occupied and hang out with him, be his roommate, just don’t
let him be by himself,” Kevin said.
“Okay,
bye,” Brian said. Kevin hung up. The next day, Brian stuck close to Nick as
they went to the venue for practice.
