Five days had passed and the guys were on their 100 hour tour. They had finished up all of the promotion and press in Sweeden and even finished up with the EMA awards. The guys even won one award while both Madison and them performed their singles.

That next morning the guys left to go on their 100 hour tour and Madison left to go back to Nashville, Tennessee to try to finish up recording her album or atleast get a few songs done while Nick, her so called husband was off with the other guys promoting their new album. At the airport, Madison and Nick had this big whole act with hugging, kissing, crying to try to prove to the guys and others that they were really upset, but what each other didn’t know, they were kind of upset that they were leaving each other.

“Madison… Nick’s on the phone.” said Grace as Madison put the earphones down and walked out of the recording room, and Madison took the cell phone from Madison.

“Hello?” asked Madison.

“Dude…” said Nick.

“Dude…. what? Where are you?” asked Madison.

“Girl we just landed in like South America, in like Rio and it’s hot as hell here but that’s beside the point, girl we are in like the van and these people are like rocking the van back and forth.” said Nick who sounded scared.

“What the hell are you talking about?” asked Madison as she held her finger in her other ear so she could hear him better.

“We can’t get into the hotel like thousands of people are beating on the bus. Kevin is scared shitless, Howie is in shock, Brian is cursing and AJ is stuttering and dude we can’t get out. It’s like they are gonna turn the damn bus over!” yelled Nick.

“Shit are you serious?” asked Madison.

“Yeah… girl it’s like freakin’ ass whack, you know it’s whack when Brian starts sayin’ hell no.” said Nick.

“Oh god… ummm well..” said Madison as Nick interrupted her.

“They are telling us they can get us off.. I’ll call you back later okay. What time is your flight back to New York?” asked Nick.

“I leave in three hours to go back. Call me later.” said Madison.

“Okay…” said Nick as Kevin walked up to him to tell him to come on, “I love you.”

“Someone is there.. okay.. bye.” said Madison as they hung up and Madison stood there looking around.

“What he say?” asked Grace.

“They are in Rio and like thousands of people are trying to turn their bus over, they can’t get into their hotel.” said Madison.

“To hurt them?” asked Grace.

“To get to them.” said Madison, “Damn…. he said that Brian was cursing…. and like I’ve gotten to known Brian pretty well like since this whole thing and that boy starts cursing that’s like wow….. pretty bad.”

“Man…” said Grace, “So when they leave Rio, they go on to New York City?”

“Yeah….. I’m gonna go meet them up there… then the next day we’re gonna rest a little and then which I’m sure he’s gonna be tired of flying, but we’re gonna fly to Atlanta and be there for Thanksgiving. Then the next day or the next fly down to the Florida Keys to meet his parents.” said Madison.

“You’re taking it another step farther by meeting each others parents.” said Grace, “You’re not gonna get a divorce are you?”

“Yeah.. we are.” said Madison.

“Maddie… I’m your sister. I know who you’ve liked and all this stuff and I know you liked Nick before, now you’re married to him…. you’re not gonna give that up.” said Grace.

“I didn’t marry him for the right reasons Gracie.. it’s different.” said Madison, “And like I dunno, he’s not the kind of person I always expect someone like him to be.”

“Different in a good way?” asked Grace.

“Grace… I need to finish this song, right Mark?” asked Madison talking to her producer.

“Right..” said Mark as Madison looked at Grace.

“See… I have to finish…” said Madison as she smiled at Grace and walked back into the recording room.

“Next time we announce on the radio where we’re stayin’ and we stay at a different hotel.” said AJ who was still nervous as they were standing in the hotel room. Nick and Brian were still sitting there out of breath.

“I don’t know, I’m ready to go home and see Leighanne… that right there scared the hell out of me.” said Brian as Nick put his arm around Brian’s neck.

“Dude… you aren’t alone.” said Nick as Brian looked at him.

“Yeah.. I’m sure you wanna see Madison too…” said Brian as Nick looked at him.

“Yeah… I miss her.” said Nick as he looked down, “I do… a lot.”

“I bet….. we’ll be back to New York as soon as you konw it.” said Kevin.

“Yeah….” said Nick as he smiled as AJ took his arm and pulled him into another room.

“Dude… are you for real missing Madison?” asked AJ as Nick looked at him.

“Yeah… god man these past few days, I’m so sick of her not being here. It’s sad… I don’t think I’m gonna be able to let her go.” said Nick.

“You have to.. if she doesn’t want to be with you.” said AJ.

“I know….” said Nick, “Damn… it’s gonna take me a while to get over this.”

“Don’t get too attached man.” said AJ as Nick looked at him.

“I know man… I know.” said Nick as he started to smile, “I can’t…”

“I know… you’ll see her tomorrow man… tomorrow.” said AJ.

“I know..” said Nick smiling.

Late that night, Madison had already arrived at her apartment in New York City. She was sitting up in bed, writing in her journal about her day recording, talking to Nick, and the conversastions she had with Grace that day. She sat ther scrimbling in the back of her journal while listening to Creed on the radio when “Shape Of My Heart” came on and she jumped.

“Damn… scared me…” she thought as she looked down in her journal to see her writing Nick’s name in a heart. She closed the journal and looked around, “Whoa….”

She put the journal down beside her bed as she layed there to listen to the sound of Nick’s voice as he started his solo part in the song.

I’m here with my confession… got nothing to hide no more.. I don’t know where to start… but to show you the shape of my heart…..

“Damn….” said Madison as she layed back in bed and covered her face with a pillow as the phone rung. She dropped the pillow and it fell to the side. She reached over slowly and picked up the phone.

“Hello?” whispered Madison answering the phone.

“Hey…” whispered Nick, “Why are you whispering?”

“Hey…. nothing just laying here in bed.” said Madison.

“Do I hear “Shape Of My Heart”?” asked Nick as he started to laugh.

“Um yeah it’s going off, I’m listening to the radio here.” said Madison, “You still in Rio?”

“Yeah.. just finished singing for like thousands and thousands of people up on top of the hotel.. it was mad.” said Nick, “I wish you could have been here, it was so cool.”

“I bet… that film crew is going around with you though right, Diary?” asked Madison.

“Yeah plus we got our own personal footage.. I wanna show it to ya like when we go to your parents and to mine and let ya see everything.” said Nick.

“Okay…” said Madison, “I bet it’s fun…. going all over like that.”

“Yeah.. it is… weird and scary like today but it’s cool. Something everybody can’t experience.” said Nick, “So did you finish recording?”

“Yeah.. I got three songs done… so… after we leave the awards and we’re like over.. I’m going to come back here and work on a few more and then the label wants Puffy do to a remix, it’s like weird, the label looked me up with it, but it should be cool.” said Madison as Nick started to laugh.

“Wow… Puffy, that’s cool.” said Nick.

“Yeah…. well I bet your tired as hell… you need some sleep before you fly here.” said Madison.

“Yeah… sleep tight okay.” said Nick.

“Alright… bye.” said Madison.

“Bye.” said Nick as he hung up and sat there as Brian walked into the room they were sharing.

“Madison?” asked Brian.

“Yeah…” said Nick as he started to smile and looked at Brian, “Madison…”

“Is everything going okay there?” asked Brian.

“Uhh.. yeah I just miss her.” said Nick as she nodded his head yes, “I miss her like crazy…..”

“That attachment…. and just think how it all started.” said Brian.

“Trying to make the best of it.” said Nick as he layed back on the bed and looked up at the ceiling, putting his hands behind his head, “Just… I don’t know…. I’ve grown so attached to her.”

“You’re like really falling for her, hell you’re married, you should.” said Brian laughing as Nick looked over at him.
