Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

It's two in the morning and Criss has just gotten home from doing Believe and two encores. He felt like a zombie and was ready to just go up to his room to sleep before getting up for another exhausting show. ANOTHER MONTH AND THAN IT'S TIME TO GO TO MEXICO Criss thought. After taking a shower and getting on his pajamas he sat on the side of his bed but before he went into a state of unconsciousness he made sure the alarm is set for tomorrow. Criss pulled the blanket over him, shut off his light and closed his eyes. As Criss slept the wind started to pick up outside it got so bad that a few poles fell down knocking out powers to homes including Criss's.

The sound of his cell phone woke him up from his slumber. "Hello"he said sleepy. "Christopher where are you?". "I'm at my house you woke me up" Criss remarked not realizing what was going on. "You're late and Felix isn't happy". Criss wondered if he had set his alarm right so he looked at his clock to see it was blinking 12:00. "Oh I must of lost power last night. Tell Felix I'm on my way"Criss replied and hung up

After setting a speed record for getting dressed Criss got into his car and drove off. He couldn't believe he was an hour late for this meeting with Felix and Criss was the one who set it up. He was about a hour away when the car stalled. "What the "Criss stated. Criss tried and tried to get the car started but nothing happened. Criss screamed the 'F' word and got out. He kicked the rims of the tire and got out his phone to call a tow truck. Felix is going to either fire me or kill me Criss thought. Outside at The Luxor Luke was waiting for Criss. "All right when he comes I'll tell him" and hung up as a taxi pulled up.

The taxi door opened and Criss got out. As he went to pay for the cab Criss realized he left his wallet at home on the kitchen table. "Luke can you pay him I'll pay you back"Criss askeed embrassed. Luke paid for the cab and they went in. "Having one of those days"he asked. "You could say that Felix must be mad as hell right now at me I just wasted his time and I was the one who set this up"Criss remarked. "Well you're going to have to reschedule with him and you're right he isn't happy with you"Luke replied as they walked into the office. "Oversleep Criss?"JD asked. "Shut up please I'm not in the mood for this"Criss stated sitting down. He took off his glasses and everyone's mouth dropped. "What?"he asked annoyed. JD grabbed a mirror and showed Criss he had a rash around his eyes.

[Veritas]

I think you mean "tow truck", not "toe truck".

[RACHEL02189]

Can This day get any worse as Criss looked at the rash around his face. "Do you think we should get a doctor just to make sure that is a rash and not something else?"Luke suggested. "Guys let's not go nuts I probably just had an allergic reaction to some concealor the make-up artist use for Believe"Criss remarked putting on his glasses. "Speaking of Believe didn't you decide to do a Monday Believe so you can spend the day with mom on Friday?" JD inquired. "" Criss muttered. He felt like slamming his head on his desk. "What do you want to do?"Luke asked. "I don't know really". A knock came to the door and saw it was Felix. "Hey Felix" Criss stated. "Can I talk to Criss alone?". "We'll see you in Believe"JD said and everyone left.

Felix sat down as Criss looked at him. "Felix I'm so sorry about today". "What in the world happened?". "It seems my house lost power and my alarm clock shut down with the power outage"Criss replied. "Criss how can I take you seriously when you have your sun glasses on". "You don't want to see what I have on my face right now"Criss replied. "Christopher take thenm off now" Felix stated so Criss took off his glasses and Felix's mouth nearly dropped to the floor. "Oh my god Christopher what happened?". "It's probably an allergic reaction to some concealer the make up artist used on me last night" itch it. "Criss you need to go to the doctor-". "Felix I'm fine don't worry"Criss replied putting back on the glasses. "All right but if that rash spreads I want you to go see a doctor"Felix stated. "All right Felix" shaking hands.

When Criss got to Believe everyone was waiting. "Here Criss"Costa remarked giving him some coffee. "Thanks" taking a drink of it. After a few minutes of going over some stuff for the day Mateo came in and saw Criss drinking the coffee. He ran up to Criss and smacked the coffee out of his hand. "MATEO what the hell!"Criss stated ready to ring his neck. "I'm sorry but the lady at the coffee shop mixed up the coffee they gave Costa mine instead of this one"he remarked. "Did yours have milk or any milk product in it?"JD asked. "Milk don't tell me you allready drank some of it". "Thanks for trying Mateo" Criss replied sitting down. "I don't understand"someone said. "Criss is lactose intolerant milk products don't agree with Criss's system very well"JD stated.

"Excuse me" and Criss went to the back. "Why don't you guys go see how he is?"Luke suggested. JD and Costa went to the back and knocked on Criss's dressing room. "I'm busy"he called out. "Are you all right Criss?"JD asked. "Yea just give some time"he replied. "All right" and left. Around noon Sandra came by and saw Criss in his office alone. "Hey baby". "Hey"he remarked in a somber tone. "What's the matter?"she asked sitting next to him. "I'm having an extremely bad day and it doesn't seem to be letting up on me"Criss said. "What happened?"she inquired. "Let's see I overslept because the house lost power, my boss is ticked at me because I set up a meeting which I didn't show up for, my car breaks down,so I had to get a cab to get me to The Luxor than when I go to pay him I realize in my hast I left my wallet on the table at home. To make the day really fun I develop a rash to some concealor or make-up they used on my face and the people at the coffee house give me Mateo's coffee which had milk in it".

"You all right now?"she inquired. "Yea for right now". "Do you want to get a sandwich or something?"she inquired. "Why don't we maybe having you around will turn my luck around"Criss replied and gave her a kiss.

And it's not even noon yet!

Back at the office JD was looking over some stuff as Criss came in and sat down. "How was lunch with Sandra?". "Good but I think I eat too much my stomach feels like it's about to explode"Criss replied. "I got a call from Hank from the garage you need a new starter and few other things". "What do you mean a few other things"Criss replied. "An oil change, your raditor has a small crack in it and front end alginment". After heariing that Criss felt ready to bang his head on his desk. "You have an interview in ten minutes". Criss got up and went to change his clothes. While Criss did the interview Costa was working in Believe. "I heard Criss is having a bad day"Mateo stated coming over. "Yea but I think it's turning around for hiim".

"I don't think so"Luke remarked coming over. "What happened now?" Costa stated. "You how Criss had that interview well it seems lunch wasn't sitting too well in Criss". "So what did he do?". "He threw up infront of the woman"Luke said. "Oh my god are you serious?"Costa inquired. "JD just brought him home to change he is soooooooooo embrassed"Luke stated. "Anybody who throws up infront of someone would be"Mateo stated. "I'm just glad it didn't happen while he was doing Believe"Costa added. "That would of sent Criss into hiding if that happened"Luke said. Back at the house while Criss showered JD talked to Sandra. "That's weird why I didn't get sick but Criss did"she wondered. "Did you and Criss have different meals for lunch". "No we had the same thing we even shared from the same plate this makes no sense what so ever"Sandra replied. "!!"Criss screamed so Sandra and JD came up to find Criss on the bed.

"What's wrong Criss?". "My pants just ripped and I stubbed my toe. God why is this happening to me"Criss remarked. "It's just a bad day Criss we get them from time to time"JD stated. "But I've never had this worse of a bad day in my life. I don't even want to know what's going to happen tonight"Criss said. "Don't think that way Christopher just think postive that it's going to get better"Sandra stated giving Criss a kiss.

[Veritas]

Poor guy!

[RACHEL02189]

Criss felt like hiding under a rock or something untill midnight hit but as his father taught him he can't run away from stuff. Where's a four leaf clover when I need it he thought driving back with JD. Then the phone rang and Criss picked it up. "Hello". "Christopher how nice to hear your voice". JD knew just by the smile on Criss's face it was their mother. "Hey mom how's New York treating you". "Pretty good it's chilly today but nothing I can't handle" she stated. "So what I help you with?"he asked. "I heard from Costa what's going on today with you". "Believe me mom I'm ready to go into hiding if anything else goes bad"Criss suggested.

"Don't worry Christopher everything happens for a reason so don't worry" she remarked. "All right mom I love you and I'll see you soon"Criss replied. "Give JD and Costa my love and I'll call you later" and hung up. "How's mom doing?". "Good just talking to her made me feel better"Criss remarked smiling. "That's good"JD said. As they stopped at a red light JD noticed a car on the other side driving fast and it didn't look like it was going to stop. The car came closer and rammed right into another car. Criss grabbed his phone and dialed 911 as JD got out to check on the people. The person who caused the accident got out. Criss got out and walked over to him. Criss could smell the booze on him. "Did I cause this?"he asked.

[RACHEL02189]

"Yea and you're drunk"Criss said. An off duty cop came over to Criss and asked what was going on. "This drunk caused this accident"Criss replied. "No I didn't you did"The drunk guy stated slurring a few words. "Christopher I need some help!!"JD called out. "I'll stay with this idiot"the officer remarked and Criss went over to his brother. Just by looking at the car he could smell gas and see it pouring out underneath. "GET ME OUT"The lady screamed as she tried to open the door. "We got to get her out before something ignites the gas"JD said. "Cover your face"Criss said so the lady did. Criss used his karate abilites and broke the window. JD got the woman out and brought her to the side of the road. "Thank you" she repeated over and over again. "No problem"Criss remarked.

"Um Criss you're bleeding". Criss looked at his arm and saw the glass from the window cut him. Bad day strike again. At The Luxor Costa and Luke were watching the news at a bar. "I wonder if Criss took the rest of the day off"Costa wondered. "With the day he's having I would go hide and never come out untill tomorrow"Luke replied. "That's not my brother Luke Criss never runs away from anything"Costa stated. JD and Criss walk in and walked over to Costa and Luke. "I hope you guys aren't drinking on the job"Criss stated. "Nope". Then Luke noticed Criss's arm was wrapped up. "What happened to you Sandra get a little rough in the bedroom?" Luke joked as Costa chuckled. "Long story but I have to go do a run through of Believe" and Criss walked away. "JD what happened?"Costa asked. JD explained to them what had happened and what Criss did. "Well at least a little good luck hit him"Costa remarked.
