Babsie and Rita were going to tour with the guys. Babsie was going to join Cassie in June because of her pregnancy, and they were going to tour the US in July and August. Babsie was due in August, Cassie in October.
Taylor and Rita had shared their 21st birthday two days before they left.
First stop, Europe. More specifically, London.
Just before a show, the guys were backstage, playing nintendo.
"Aww man." Taylor complained.
"Ha ha! You've let fatherhood get in the way of practicing." Zac exulted, as he zoomed past Taylors' crashed car.
"We'll see about that!"
Then Isaac irritated both of them by winning the race.
"Hey, how'd you do that?" Zac asked, throwing down the controls.
"I didn't spend all my time talking." He replied with a grin.
Taylor poked his tongue out at him.
"Another game?" Zac asked. "I'll kick your butt this time."
"Yeah, I'll have another game. But you'll find I'm the one doing the butt kicking around here."
"Tay?"
"Sure, I'll play."
"All righty."
"Hey guys." Rita said, entering the room with Adam in her arms. "Hey, where's Babsie?"
"She's your cousin." Taylor replied.
Rita smiled.
"She's doing interviews." Isaac answered.
"Oh, ok."
"So, are we gonna play this game or not?" Zac asked.
"You'd better not get too caught up in something, there'll be someone to take you on in five." Rita pointed out.
"Aww man." Zac complained. "Oh well."
"By the way Rita, about those saxophone lessons..." Isaac began.
"Oh yeah, we keep forgetting huh?"
"Plenty of time on tour."
She smiled.
"All you have to do, is get your own sax."
