“Jaime, where’s Austin?” I was looking everywhere. Just before Jaime said anything, Austin came running past us and onto stage. He bumped my shoulder while running past, but I didn’t care. I stared at Austin in awe, “I've never seen them in concert before.” Jaime just looked at me and scoffed.
“What was that for?” I looked at him
“Nothing, nothing at all.”
“Okay, whatever.” I looked back on stage as they started playing one of my favorite songs, The Flood. Of course I sang along, I’m still a fangirl. Jaime stood next to me looking completely uninterested, so I ignored him and enjoyed the song. After the song was over they played a song that I didn’t know and Jaime was being impatient so we went back to the green room. Everyone was gone so it was just Jaime and I. we went and sat on the couch and I put on my legs on his lap resting against the arm of the couch. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” His voice was flat
“Oh, come on. You didn’t even enjoy the music.” I pouted sticking my lip out causing him to laugh, “I don’t know, I just wasn’t feelin’ it right then.”
“Oh, okay.” Right then I heard the intro to Second & Sebring. I absolutely love that song! I jumped up grabbing Jaime’s hand and ran out of the green to the stage. We got to the stage and I almost started crying ok, no. I did start crying. Jaime said something but I couldn’t hear or understand him, I had my eyes and attention glued to the stage. I had my 4 minutes of being a total fangirl, then the song ended and everyone came running off stage. I said hi to Alan, Tino, Aaron and Phil as they came off stage. Austin was still talking, when he stopped and ran off stage he spotted me and Jaime. He walked over to us to talk, “Good luck, man. It’s an amazing crowd tonight.”
Jaime smiled “Thanks.” As they were conversing I stood there playing with my thumbs.
“And what’s your name?” I looked up and made eye contact with Austin, I mean THE Austin Carlile!
“Uh. Uh. Uh.” I kept stuttering so Jaime answered for me, “This is Emily.” He grabbed my hand and intertwined out fingers. I think he wanted to make sure that Austin wouldn’t ‘flirt’ with me. I don’t get why he’s doing that, I mean we’re not even technically ‘together’. Besides after tonight, I’m going to go back to Tooele and we’ll probably never talk again.
“Well that’s a beautiful name.” Austin said smiling.
Matt came up to us, “Showtime.”
“Ok.” Jaime looked at me, “Well I guess I’ll see you later. Bye babe.” He kissed me and ran off by the guys, leaving me and Austin alone. We stood there in silence for a couple seconds, just as I was going to say something Austin spoke up, “So you and Jaime huh?” he smiled
“I’m not quite sure actually.” I gave him a nervous laugh
“Oh, really. Why?”
“Well, it’s a very long story. Like we have a ‘thing’ but I guess we’re not like ‘together’ together. I don’t know.”
“Oh, well. I’m sorry. You can hang out with me until they’re done if you want.” He gestured to the guys who were about to go on stage.
“Well, can we watch the show? I was really looking forward to it.” I smiled up at him.
“Yeah, we can go up to the bar and watch it from there.”
“Oh, yeah. About that. I can’t.”
He gave me a confused look, “Why?”
“Because I’m not even 18 for 3 more days.”
He laughed out of shock, “Wow, really? Like, you’re not joking with me?”
“No, I’m not joking.” I laughed
“Oh, well. Hmmm. They don’t need to know that just stick close to me when we go up there and if they say anything I’ll take care of it.”
“Well, ok then. I guess.”
“Ok, let me go change real quick. I’ll be right back.” Austin ran off to his green room. I turned my attention to the guys, Vic was talking. Jaime looked over to me and smiled, I almost melted in that spot. When Vic stopped talking they started playing yeahboy and doll face, one of my favorite songs from a flair for the dramatic. When that song ended Austin was back, “Well, you ready to go?” he asked
“Yepp, I sure am.” I smiled and we went up to the bar. The girl was checking ID’s as people came in, when she got to Austin and I she just smiled at him and let us in. “Well that wasn’t nerve-wrecking or anything.” I laughed we took our seats at the bar, Austin got a beer or something and I got a mountain dew. I looked at the stage and started paying attention again, well to the crowd more than the guys. Looking down at them reminded me of my first concert, it made me terrified of concerts.
~Flashback~
I finally talked my parents into letting me go to my first concert. It was asking Alexandria, I was kind of toward the middle of the crowd I thought I was a safe distance from the mosh pit. But I guess I thought wrong, some guy decided it would be funny to throw random people in. sadly, I was one of those people.
When I hit the ground I got stuck, I couldn’t get up and people were stepping on and kicking me. I swear I could hear my ribs pop and crack, I thought it would be/get worse until a couple of guys saw me, they stopped moshing to pick me up and carried me to the EMT. I didn’t really remember anything except for getting thrown in and hearing my ribs pop. I woke up in the hospital, the doctor said I had 4 broken ribs and I fractured my ankle. I guess they called my mom because as the doctor left she came running in.
~End flashback~
Austin grabbed my shoulder and I snapped out of my flashback, “Hey, it’s their last song.”
“Oh, ok. Thanks.” I smiled and started watching. Vic started singing, I loved it. Then it hit me, they were plying I don’t care if you’re contagious. I started crying when Vic sang my favorite part.
“And they’ll never take us alive.
(Can you chase away the darkness?)
To live in love and die.
Last night she recited every reason she’s fine.
So if we’re heading there together at the same time,
You sing while I drive!” I sang along with him, softly crying. Austin noticed, “Are you ok?”
I looked at him smiling, “I couldn’t be better.”
“Then why are you crying?”
“This song just means a lot.”
“Oh, I feel ya.” He smiled and we both started watching again. The song was about over so I looked at Austin, “Hey, I’m gonna go I promised them I’d meet them on the side of the stage when they were done.”
“Ok, I’ll come with to make sure they let you passed security.” We both ran downstairs and I ran past security while Austin stopped and went back upstairs, I made it to the stage just as the song ended. “THANK YOU RENO! YOU WERE AMAZING!” Vic yelled and then ran off stage followed by the guys. Jaime came over to me and tried to hug me, “EEEWWWW! Jaime don’t, you’re all sweaty and gross. I’ll hug you after you shower.” I whined
“You’re mean.” He pouted.
“Then go shower and I won’t be.” I smiled at him
“Yeah, ok.” He walked away so I let my guard down... bad choice… he turned around and hugged me before I could do anything “EEWW! Jaime stop! I already showered! Now I’m gonna have to shower again!” I tried pushing away from him, he put me down and smiled
“Well, we can always conserve water and shower together.” He winked at me
“Ok, we can conserve water.”
He gave me a shocked look, “Are you serious?”
“Yeah, you can shower with tony that way we’ll be conserving water.”
He glared at me. “Tease.”
“I know.” I batted my eyelashes, “Now go shower, you stink.”
He laughed and started walking away, “It would be better if you were there!” he yelled back at me.
I ran to catch up with him, “I will be, just not in the same room.” I grabbed his hand and entwined our fingers while walking. All of the guys were already back at the bus getting ready for the Meet’n’Greet. When Jaime and I got there the guys were pretty much ready. Jaime went to grab clothes and shower while Tony, Vic and Mike were sitting on the couch.
“Well, I’m gonna change because I am now covered in Jaime’s sweat.” They all looked at me, “Where are you gonna change? Jaime’s in the bathroom already.” tony said smiling.
“Well, I guess you can change out here. I mean, you really have no choice.” Mike added
“Yeah, I guess we don’t mind.” Vic chirped I grabbed my hot topic bag rolling my eyes, “I’ll just change back by the bunks.”
Tony raised an eyebrow, “but what if Jaime sees you?”
“Then he sees me, all of you have seen my bra already and Jaime saw my underwear earlier.” They all gave me a shocked look, I sighed turning and walking away. “Don’t even.” I closed the curtains and dumped out the bag on Jaime’s bunk. I heard the shower turn off, well he’s gonna be in there for a minute, I took off my dress and put my MCR shirt on. Thinking I could get my pants on before he came out I quickly tried pulling them up, right as he came out I tripped and fell.
“Well, I could either ask why you’re lying on the ground laughing and in your underwear or, I could take advantage of the moment.” He laughed, I kept laughing and I looked at him. He was shirtless, once again with black skinny jeans on. “I think I should just give up and walk around in my underwear, I mean you’ve seen it enough.” I got up and attempted again at pulling up my pants. Jaime looked down at my legs, “I’m sorry.”
I looked confused until he pointed at my scars. I pulled up my pants and zipped them. “It’s not your fault.” I shrugged and put my dress into the hot topic bag
“Yeah, but I know how it feels.”
“Well, I got over them a long time ago. With the help of you guys I might add.” I smiled at him
“Well, I’m glad we could help.” He smiled and bowed
“Yeah, now put a shirt on so I can concentrate,” I laughed trying to put my shoes back on. “Fine.” He sighed. I was about to back out to the lounge when Jaime cleared his throat. I looked back and he was holding my ninja turtle belt, “Oh, yeah.” I squealed taking it from him.
“Whoa, don’t be so loud. They’ll think we’re doing something.” He pointed towards the curtain. I raised an eyebrow and looked at him, “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?”
“If pretending like we had sex is what you’re thinking then yes, yes I am.” He laughed
“Ok, on the count of three let’s do it.”
“Ok.”
“1…2…3..!” we started making all kinds of sex noises and were really loud, I hit the wall a couple of times and was bouncing on Jaime’s bunk. That all went on for about 5-7 minutes then we stopped. Jaime came over to me and messed up my hair, “What was that for?!” I whisper yelled
“You gotta have sex hair, duh!” he whispered back.
I looked up at his perfect hair. I reached up and messed it up. “There, now we match.” I smiled, my belt was fed through the loops but still undone, “OK, let’s go.” I told Jaime, he opened the curtain and we walked out. He was fixing his hair while I was fastening his belt. The guys stared at us smiling. “Hey guys. Sorry it took so long. I waited for Jaime to get out of the bathroom.” I smiled running my fingers through my hair and acted as if I was catching my breath. Mike looked at Vic and Tony, “hey, did you hear that noise a little bit ago?”
“Yeah, I think we did.” Tony smiled.
“Yeah, it sounded like, OH GOD! OH GOD! DON’T STOP, JAIME DON’T STOP!” Vic decided to join in on the joke.
I just played along and smacked Jaime’s chest. “I thought you said it was soundproof!” he was not expecting that, but he played along anyway. “Sorry, I forgot it wasn’t.” he smiled, “well shall we get to this Meet’n’Greet?”
everyone got up and shuffled out of the bus. As we were walking to Meet’n’Greet, Jaime was holding my hand, “So you don’t think crazy fan girls will try to murder me?” I laughed
“No, not while I’m there,” he squeezed my hand, “But you will however get some dirty looks.”
“Oh, well I can handle that.” We got to the table and sat down, I sat on Jaime’s lap until they started letting fans in, then I moved to behind him and played on his phone. The fans came flooding in, girls practically throwing themselves at the guys. After a little while I heard a familiar voice and looked up, “Jenna?” I said wide eyed, she looked at me with the same expression, “Emily? W-What are you doing here?”
“Oh, I’m just waiting for the guys to finish up.” She was speechless and just stared at me, “Well it was good seeing you Jenna but you’re kinda holding up the line Hun.”
“Oh, yeah, sorry about that.” She got her shirt and poster signed and got a couple of pictures then left. I decided to walk over to the merch table and look around, I saw the cutest pair of PTV short shorts that I had to have! I bought them and a tank top with the money I won from Jaime earlier. I hid the bag behind my back and walked over to Jaime, “Hey, I’m tired so I’m gonna go back to the bus.” Jaime was still signing stuff as he looked at me, “Ok, be careful babe.” He kissed me and I started walking away. I could hear the rude remarks and the angry fan girls because I kissed Jaime. I turned around and yelled back at the line of girls, “You all can sit there and talk shit on me for kissing Jaime, I really don’t care, wanna know why? Because no matter how much you guys diss on me just remember, I’m the one who get to sleep by him at night, and I’m the one who knows what it’s like to have sex with him.” I smiled and looked at the guys who were laughing. I just winked at Jaime and went to the bus. When I got inside I immediately changed into the new merch I just got and started playing blackops.
