|Entry#21: Love, Josh|

Josh shrugged. "I don't know. Don't look at me."
Both Lance and Emerson gave Josh a death stare.
He lifted his hands to his eyes to block their stare. "Stop!" He whined.
Lance and Emerson paced back and forth. "What are we going to do! Day hasn't been around since...yesterday. And that was after Brendon showed up at our Las Vegas show."
Josh looked out their small window. He knew exactly where Daina was but he promised not to tell anyone.
Lance grabbed the foot stool and set it right in front of Josh. "Josh, tell us now. We know you know something."
He shook his head. "I'm a dunce. I don't know anything."
Emerson smacked him lightly in the back of his head. "Spit it out. Now. We need her."
Josh shook his again. "Nope. Never."

The trailer door shot open. Pete dragged in Brendon.
"She's not with him." He said, settling Brendon in the trailer.
"What?!" Both Emerson and Lance's jaws dropped.
Josh just stared at them. "You guys are weird." He mumbled.
Pete glared at Josh. "You know something, Josh. Just by the way you're talking. We all know you know something."
He slouched down into his chair. Now he was starting to become guilty.
You see, Josh saw Brendon and Daina talking. Daina told Josh that if he listened to their conversation...
He would have to promise not to tell Lance or Emerson.
The whole talk with Brendon was about her visiting Brendon's mother. Brendon, of course, promised to keep her concealed while she was there.
Josh wanted to argue with her to stay but she thought about them. Them meaning Brendon and Daina. She was happy with him and Josh knew that something big would happen between them. Something no one expected.
And with that Brendon took her with him and left to some town out of Vegas.

Brendon's eyes widened as he stared at Josh.
Lance left the trailer and went into the big arena. Emerson soon followed.
"If you're hiding something, Josh, you better spill it soon. You guys still have another show." Pete said, angrily.
As the door shut, Brendon shot up to Josh. "You didn't tell them anything did you? Please say no."
Josh shook his head. "No, but how is she going to get here? If your mom drops her off then the guys will get furious with her that she dropped the time to practice to meet your mom. They never wanted her to go. I was one of them but I kinda had to think it over." He slowly murmured the last part.
Brendon looked out the window. "I don't know. I was going to go home and get her...but I don't have a car. Pete used Kegan's car."
Josh got up from the chair. "Then ask Kegan for the car again."
Brendon sat up. "Good idea! I'll be right back if he doesn't give me the car. If I don't come back I went to go get her. Keep it on the DL."
He nodded as Brendon left the trailer.
"Alright...I'm lying too much." He mumbled to himself.
Josh...the masterind of...lying?
Yeah, that sounds good.
