Teaser Tuesday from Music of the Heart: The Bet is Made
So today's Teaser Tuesday picks up with our last one. It's narrated in Jake's POV. Abby's on the phone with her brother after stumbling onto the wrong tour bus at Rock Nation. While giving her brother, Gabe, a piece of her mind on the phone, she also accidentally admitted that she was virgin in front of the band. Here's where that picks up.....

*Rough draft and subject to change*
Abby whirled around and saw our bewildered expressions. A flush entered her cheeks, and she ducked her head. She sank back down into her chair and buried her face in one of her hands. “I can’t believe I just admitted that in a room full of men,” she whispered.When Gabe said something else, her voice broke with emotion. “Look, I just need to know how we’re going to fix this.” After sniffling for a few seconds, she raised her head and scanned our faces. “Yeah, one sec.” She handed the phone to Brayden. “He wants to know your tour schedule, so I’ll be able to get off the bus and onto a plane as soon as possible.”
He nodded as he took the phone and stepped away from us.
“Hey Gabe, this is Brayden Vandenburg, and don’t worry, man, I’m gonna take
good care of Abby until we can get her back to you guys—” He jerked back like
he had been slapped. “That was so not
what I meant. Besides, I’m a married man. Anyway, here’s where we are…” His voice
trailed off as he walked down the aisle.
Rhys patted Abby’s back reassuringly. “Hey, don’t worry.
It’s going to be okay.”
With her head buried back in her hands, she mumbled. “Thanks.
I hope so.”
Edging Rhys out of the way, I knelt down beside Abby. Taking
her chin in my hands, I pulled her head up to meet my gaze. “Don’t sweat it,
Angel. Your brother and Bray will figure it out. I promise we’ll have you back into your civilized little world as soon as possible and before you can get too
traumatized by being in our presence.”
She smacked my hand away. “What do you mean civilized?”
I shrugged. “I just meant that it’s obvious you’re used to a
certain way of life.”
Her blonde brows shot up so far I thought they might reach
her white headband. “Are you insinuating that I’m some spoiled little brat who
is used to having everyone bow to her every whim?
“Maybe.”
Abby narrowed her eyes at me. “My parents were missionaries.
Do you even understand what that means?”
A smirk curved at my lips. “I know all about the missionary
position, Angel. In fact, I believe I was trying to acquaint you with it
earlier when you cock blocked me.”
“You’re seriously disgusting!” she cried popping up out of
her chair. She almost toppled me over before I could stand up. Poking her
finger into my chest, she said, “I’ll have you know that I’m not some prima
donna who can’t survive without someone taking care of me. The lives of
missionaries and their families is very simplistic, so trust me when I say,
I’ve seen a lot of hard shit. Yeah, we lived in major cities like Rio in Brazil
and Guadalajara in Mexico, but I’ve also tromped through the jungles and gone
days without showers, least of all cell phones and wifi. So I can assure you
that there’s nothing you and your band of merry miscreants can do that would
shock or scare me!”
I rolled my eyes. “Oh please. You fucking passed out at the
sight of the boys, not to mention that you flipped your shit and got your lacy panties all
in a twist when I made out with you.”
“Are you trying to say that I couldn’t make it on this bus with you?”
she countered.
I cocked my head at her. “Come on, Angel. You would die a
thousand deaths if you even had to stay one night on here with us and our
raging sex drives, atrocious language, and bad table manners.”
“You seem to forget I have three older brothers. I’m well
acquainted with unruly guys.”
Crossing my arms over my chest, I smirked down at her. “So
you’re saying if you had the chance to get off the bus in the next few hours,
you wouldn’t?”
She inched forward, standing toe to toe with me. “Are you
saying I don’t have the courage to stay?”
“Yeah, I am.”
AJ held up his hands. “Whoa, what the fuck do you two think
you’re doing?”
“So what would I have to do to prove myself to you?” Abby
asked.
Without even thinking, I blurted, “Stay one week on the bus.”
Her tough as nails resolve wavered a little. “One week?”
she squeaked, her voice cracking.
Rhys tried pushing us apart. “Okay, that’s really funny, but
you two can stop now,” he argued. When neither of us backed down, he said, “Let
me remind you that Abby has a tour she needs to be on, and we have one as well.
No one has to prove anything to anyone, okay?”
I tore my gaze from Abby’s to glare at him. “This isn’t
anything to you, man. This is between me and Angel.”
“It’s Abby,” she growled.
I arched my brows at her. “So what’s it gonna be, Angel?”
Fury flashed in her blue eyes before she whirled around. She
stomped over to Brayden and snatched the phone away from him. “Gabe, there’s
been a change of plans.”
