Nic generally loved being on tour but right now he was loving being at home. Home was a house that he, Cameron, Noble and Jude shared when they weren't out on the road. The brothers shared the main floor, Cameron had the top, and Nic had the basement to himself. They'd been in town for a month and he'd probably showered at least twice a day every day. Showers were a rare thing on the road and something he enjoyed immensely. Aside from compulsively showering, he'd been cooking dinner every day for himself and whoever happened to be around.

After the last tour, they'd ousted their rhythm guitarist who they'd been friends with since high school. He'd long been promising that alcohol wasn't going to be his priority anymore but eventually they stopped listening to his talk and gave him the boot. Now they had the job of finding someone else before they hit the road next month. Oddly enough, Jude had been seeing this guy named Ryland since they'd been back and this Ryland apparently had a brother who could play. Yeah, we'll see about that, Nic thought to himself as he was nodding in agreement with the rest of the band that they'd check him out.

Ryland was supposed to bring his little brother over that evening. Nic was skeptical but told himself he wouldn't judge the guy until he'd heard him. He had a mean batch of enchiladas cooking in the oven and they were fine to be left on their own, so he headed out to the garage that they'd converted into their practice space. He figured most bands got sick of each other and that's why they all had their own places but he also figured those bands had families. It just seemed stupid for all of them to be spending money on a place they weren't even living in half the time. Strolling into the garage, he plopped down on the couch to listen to Jude and Noble finish up something they were working on.

Noble and Jude could not be more opposite as brothers. While Jude was patient and sweet, Noble was impatient and a little brash. He could be obnoxious sometimes, though honestly it just depended on his mood. At the moment he and Jude were busy working on a song, though mostly it was Jude and he was just sort of hanging out and offering up ideas for lyrics. He was laying on one of the couches with his feet hanging over the arm of it as he watched Jude from upside down, and when he heard Nic come into the garage, he let his head swivel in the direction of the door. He had on a white button up shirt with the cuffs left unbuttoned and a black vest, black pants, and his feet were bare. His hair was kind of long, and he actually needed to cut it but the winter months were making him lazy.

"I smell food," he commented slyly with a little smirk as he eyed Nic. "Have you been wearing your apron?"

"Maybe," Nic replied, parking himself next to Noble on the couch.

Noble had bought him one last Christmas that read 'Kiss the Cook' and always threw a fit when Nic cooked without it. The problem was that Noble then always tried to kiss him while he was cooking just to get a rise out of him and it always worked. It always ended up with Nic redfaced and swatting at his friend with a wooden spoon. Turning his attention to Jude, he smiled.

"What are you working on? Are they almost here? Dinner's going to be ready in a half hour and I'm not gonna sit here all night listening to your boytoy's brother drag a pick over some strings when I could be feasting on the masterpiece currently cooking in the oven." He could get cocky sometimes when he was around Noble. It just kinda rubbed off on him.
