A groaned escaped Jane’s pouty lips as her eyes fluttered open to see Rob’s shirtless form in front of her. “Shit,” she whispered as she sat up, the world spinning for a moment until her eyes adjusted to the brightness of the morning. Some night she had? Jane wanted to scream, but it wouldn’t be justified, so she bit a lip to keep herself from exploding. “Yeah,” her hoarse voice mumbled, more raspy than usual, “you should drive.” Jane’s hand shot up so that he could help her stand, and as she did, she began to wipe the blades of grass that had stuck to her off her body, barely making any eye contact with Rob as she walked over to the van to pull out a change of clothes. Hers were still damp, and she was thankful he didn’t notice since she didn’t feel like explaining herself. 

After slipping on black tee shirt that had been cut into a crop top and a new pair of shorts, she crawled into the van quietly before plopping down on the middle row. Jane had nothing to say for the first time since she could remember. Her mind was exhausted along with her body as she laid down with her ear buds in, softly playing [url=https://youtu.be/3B_8c5dDIeE]B&E by Nothing[/url], her usual go-to song when she felt upset - even if she didn't know why she was upset. Usually, after mushrooms, she felt like things were so much clearer, but today, her thoughts were cloudy. Never speaking about what happened last night would be ideal, but she knew in a van with three guys, that probably wouldn’t happen.

Rob was driving, and Austin was in the passenger seat, wearing black Ray-Bans and singing along to a song that she hadn’t heard of before. “Jane!” he yelled so that she could hear through the music, and he turned down the volume once he caught her attention. “So, did you fuck Jared [i]before[/i] or [i]after[/i] you passed out in the front lawn?” 
This caused Sam, who was in the row of seats behind her, to start cracking up.
Jane swung backwards and hit him on the arm. “I didn’t sleep with him, asshole.”
Austin scoffed. “Yeah right, I saw you guys together all night. You’d never deny the chance to f—“ 
“Shut [i]up[/i], Austin. I said I didn’t fuck him, okay?” Jane rolled her eyes and laid back down on the seat, closing her eyes and folding her arms. 
“Jesus, Jane, chill out,” Austin mumbled as he turned the radio up.

Jane didn’t like acting that way – she prided herself in usually not letting things get to her – but she was completely drained, mentally and physically, and didn’t have the energy to play along. The thoughts she was having about Rob were tormenting her still, making her question if it truly was the drugs or not that made her feel… that way. Her eyes opened and lingered on the window for a bit before she fell back asleep, this time much more comfortably then on the front lawn.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She woke up maybe two or three hours later, halfway into their trip to El Paso. Without saying anything to the guys, she searched through her phone until she found the number she needed and popped up from the seat. Jane tapped Rob on the shoulder and quietly asked him to turn down the radio right before the person on the other line answered.

“Hey,” God, her voice sounded like shit. “It’s Jane from In Bloom. What time is load in?”
The man on the other line was Tim, a booking manager who put together the event. They had spoken once about a week ago. “I hope your voice sounds better tonight then it does now! Load in’s at 7:00, you guys go on at 8:00.” 
Jane laughed. “Yeah, last night is lingering a bit. I’ll be fine. See you then.” She ended the call and looked out the window to see the landscape surrounding them. They were probably in New Mexico by now, she figured. She would, however, want to see the Rio Grande, but Jane decided she would ask later. 

Her stomach began to rumble. "Our set's at 8. Would you guys be cool with getting food soon? I’m starving.” Jane felt awkward about what happened between her and Austin, so she rested a hand on his shoulder and almost squeezed herself between him and Rob. “Hey, Aust. I’m sorry. I was just… hungover. Really.” She smiled at him sincerely before taking her seat again. 
Austin laughed. "It's fine, mad woman." 
"And Sam, sorry about your arm," she apologized as she stuck out her tongue at him. 

Jane couldn't have the [i]whole[/i] band hate her. She could barely handle Rob not wanting to be around her.
