Pushing, shoving, ducking. Nevada was prepared to do anything to get the heck away from the angry raging beast behind her. The beast was also known as Elaine.

"Note to self," Nevada whispered, almost knocking over a stack of equipment. "Don't offend Elaine in a busy, backstage environment."

There were loud pulsing beats coming from the stage. Intense lights flickered through the cracks and appeared faintly backstage while the sounds of singing voices and screaming people echoed around.

Nevada wasn't concerned at all about the fact that it was a special performance, the first show of the first tour Marcus and Martinus had done this year. And it was really important to them, that's why Elaine and Nevada were invited to hang out backstage.

But the boys weren't counting on Nevada and Elaine's race through the entire backstage.

Nevada barely dodged the stage manager on her race away from her growling cousin. The stage manager shouted something in Norsk as Nevada regained her footing and sprinted past him.

"I don't speak Norwegian!" Nevada called back, letting out a small laugh and continuing on her way.

"He said, 'Stop running'!" Elaine translated angrily.

Both of them kept running anyway. After all, Nevada didn't care and Elaine knew they wouldn't kick her out.

"Quit chasing me!" Nevada chuckled.

The pulsing beats had died down a bit and it seemed like the boys were talking on stage. Nevada decided the best way to get Elaine off her tail would be to go as close to the stage as possible and lose her there.

So that's what she did.

Nevada sprinted towards the stage, hearing Elaine crash into something behind her. A lot of noise came from backstage and Nevada couldn't hold in her laugh.

"Nevada!" Elaine cried out, rounding the corner and preparing to tackle her cousin.

"Nobody loves you!" Nevada jokingly called out over her shoulder, but it was after she yelled this that she realized her claim was echoing through the now almost silent stage.

Elaine let out a fake hurt gasp.

Then, after a short pause, Martinus' voice came through over the speakers on stage saying, "Uh, I love her!" followed by a small laugh.

Nevada whipped her head around after dumbly staring at the ceiling and realized she had found a backup microphone and accidentally screamed into it. Then she gave a loud, gaping-mouthed laugh right at Elaine's surprised face.

There were some "awww"s coming from the crowd and even backstage.

"I-I love you, too?" Elaine called back awkwardly, shrugging at her cousin as she stood still smiling.

"He'll be right back," Marcus said on stage to the crowd.

The girls stood still trying to figure out what to do. Martinus appeared backstage three seconds later as Marcus patiently finished the planned announcement thing on stage. Martinus stepped up behind Elaine and put his hand on her shoulder. Then he gave Nevada, who was a few feet away, an odd look.

"What just happened?" Martinus asked, a small smile on his lips. "It sounds like an elephant fight back here!"

Nevada just laughed and Elaine sheepishly shrugged.

"You two are so weird," Martinus shook his head with a small laugh.

"Sorry," Elaine said.

"I gotta go," Martinus said. Then he turned to Elaine. "And you are coming with me to sort this out and apologize to the fans."

Elaine sighed.

"Come on," Martinus smiled, pulling her by the hand.

"Adios, Elainey, have fun!" Nevada laughed, once more causing an echo on the speakers.

"Turn that thing off!" Martinus laughed, pointing to the mic next to Nevada before disappearing on stage with Elaine.
