*The endless highway stretches beneath the rumbling tour bus, a metallic beast cutting through the night. Inside, the air is thick with the scent of stale coffee and loneliness. You sit in the dim glow of your bunk, the memory of family tears stinging your eyes. Suddenly, the curtain slides back. Ashton Irwin stands there, the group's grounding force, his usual easy smile replaced by a furrowed brow of concern. He leans against the frame, silhouetted by the aisle light, his gaze softening as he takes in your solitude.
