Alexis's POV

After surfing, we headed back to our hotel to prepare for the concert. I was really excited because this was the first time I was a band photographer. I had been to many concerts before but this time I would be more involved. Once I had a quick shower, I changed into blue denim jeans, a PTV t-shirt, military boots and a checked shirt with the sleeves rolled up. I wanted to have light-weight clothing because I knew it would get hot in the venue really quickly. After getting ready, Erin and I loitered in the lobby until the guys came down. When Erin was getting food from one of the hotel's vending machines, I saw Britany enter the lobby with a guy, a different one from last night.

"Oi, Britany!" I shout, hopefully grabbing her attention. She looked over in my direction and had a shocked/angry expression on her face.

"Yes? What do you want?" She said.

"The concert starts in two hours, you not going?" I ask her.

"And why would I? It's just a concert." She says back.

"You're not going to support Jaime and the guys?" I say.

"No. I made a new friend and I'm going to spend time with him."

"You mean that he's the next person you're going to sleep with."

"Excuse me? I have a boyfriend thank you very much, why would I cheat on the man that I love?" She crosses her arms and glares at me.

"Ohh, that's rich coming from you. You've cheated on Jaime so many times and I even have evidence of you making out with a stranger last night."

"You don't have shit. You're just saying that to feel powerful."

"Like hell I am." I snap at her.

"Listen here you bitch, nothing and no-one will break me and Jaime up? Got that?" She said snidely at me, turns on her heel and storms off, grabbing her new 'friend' in the process. I pinch the bridge of my nose and sigh. This is one of the many reasons why I can't stand her, she's such an arrogant bitch.

"Hey, what happened? You seem pissed." I turned around to see Erin carrying food.

"Just Britany being a bitch and finding a new guy." I say.

"This is getting ridiculous, you really need to tell Jaime soon." She said to me whilst handing me some of the food.

"Tell me what?" I turn around sharply to see Jaime staring at us with questioning looks.

"Uhh... nothing. Nothing at all." I stutter.

"Are you sure? It doesn't seem like nothing." He says.

"It doesn't matter. Never mind, I can tell you later. Let' go and enjoy the first concert of tour!" I mock excitement to cover up the awkward moment earlier and I ran off to find Vic and Mike. I found them outside waiting for everyone else. Vic hands me my camera bag and smiles at me.

"Ready Lex?" Mike asks.

"I was born ready." I say and grin at both of my brothers. Tony, Erin and Jaime turn up and we start to walk to the concert venue seeing as it was only ten minutes from where our hotel was. We arrive and enter the back entrance seeing as there was no way we would get through the front, there already was a very long line of kids waiting for the doors to open. The band started sound check and I began setting up my cameras. The support band had practised earlier but no-one knew who they were. All we knew was that they were a rising band too and we knew them quite well. The band played Besitos and Drella when rehearsing. Once I'd finished setting up the camera, I talked to some of the people that had arrived early. Most of them knew me from being Vic and Mike's sister but they also knew me from my photography.

"Do you know who the support band is at all?" I ask Jenna, a girl that I had talked to for a few minutes.

"I'm not too sure but I've heard rumours that it's Sleeping with Sirens." She says. The lights suddenly went out and the stage lights started flashing different colours every couple of seconds.

"Looks like we're going to find out in a few seconds" I said and let out a little laugh. I turned to the stage and turned my camera on, preparing for the support band to come on to the stage. I hear the beginning chords of If you Can't Hang and I instantly knew who the support band was. Suddenly, Gabe appears behind the drum kit, Justin runs on with his bass followed by Jack and Jesse who had their guitars then Kellin runs on with his microphone. Jenna was right, it is Sleeping with Sirens! After performing the first song, they continued with their set playing:

Feel

Alone

Postcards and Polaroids

Let's Cheer to This

Let Love Bleed Red

I had so much fun photographing the band. I managed to get a really good picture of Jesse doing a guitar spin and Kellin interacting with a couple of fans when performing Alone. Once SWS had finished performing their set, I quickly scanned through the pictures I had taken before switching cameras and waiting for PTV to take to the stage. (Did you catch on to my quote of Asking Alexandria's song? No? Okay... back to the story!) The lights start to dim and I hear the fans scream louder as May These Noises Startle You In Your Sleep start to play. The recording of Vic talks whilst the members enter the stage. The band burst into playing Hell Above and the fans start screaming as loud as they can. I was pretty sure that my eardrums were going to burst. The rest of the set was:

King for a Day f.t. Kellin Quinn

The Boy who Could Fly

Caraphernelia

A Match Into Water

Bulletproof Love

Disasterology

Drella

Stained Glass Eyes and Colourful Tears

"This last song goes out to my little sister who has supported the band since the very beginning and she's now here as our photographer and is getting to see us perform our first concert on our world tour. I love you sis. This song is called Hold On Till May!" Vic talks into the microphone. I mouth 'I love you' to him when he starts to play the beginning chords to the song.

She sits up high surrounded by the sun
One million branches and she loves every one
"Mom and dad, did you search for me?
I've been up here so long I'm going crazy!"

And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
3-2-1 where did it go?

Now don't be crazy
Yes now of course you can stay here.
Been in a touring band for going on ten years.
"Big deal," she said, "I guess you're official."
I only said it 'cause I know what it's like to feel burned out

It gets you down,
We've all been there sometimes
But tonight I'll make you feel beautiful once again

And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound (over the sound)
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
3-2-1 where did it go?

If I were you, I'd put that away
See, you're just wasted
And thinking 'bout the past again
Darling you'll be okay

And she said,

[Lindsey:]
"If you were me, you'd do the same
'Cause I can't take anymore
I'll draw the shades and close the door
Everything's not alright and I would rather..."

And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound (over the sound)
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
Tell me where did it go?

As the song end, the guys run off stage and I head backstake to find them. I find the four guys participating in a group hug.

"Hey Alexis, join the hug." Tony says to me.

"I'd love to but you all stink of sweat and I'd like to stay clean for just now." I say back. Tony smirks at Vic, Mike and Jaime and they all nod at him then turn their attention back to me. I laugh nervously and take a step back. Before I could take another step back, Jaime lunged forward and wrapped his arms around me, pulling me in between the four sweaty men and they all hug me.

"Eww, gross, you all stink and feel funny. Let me go before I either projectile vomit or contract a skin disease, please." I whine at them but they laugh at me. Well, isn't it nice to be appreciated.
"Boys, let her go, I wanna see her." I hear a feminine voice say from behind me.

"Katelynne!" I squeal, pushing my way out the little group and hug her. She smelled of sweat too so I'm assuming SWS attacked her with hugs.

"I missed you!" I say and pull back from the hug.

"I missed you too! At least we can now spend some time together." She smiles at me.

"You could have said you were coming on tour, I could clear my schedule a little bit."

"It's alright, I wanted to surprise you."

"You definitely did that." I laugh and we having a small conversation catching up before she had to go and find Kellin.

"Hey." I hear a voice say behind me, just after Katelynne left." I turn around to see Jaime standing two feet away from me.

"Hey, you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, I just wanted to talk to you."

"Sure, what about?"

"What was it you were talking to Erin about before the concert that you wanted to tell me?"

"Oh, it's nothing now, never mind."

"It does matter, tell me."

"No, no, never mind."

"No, tell me."

"Fine, but I can't tell you, I need to show you." I turn on my camera and flick to the first picture that I took of Britany making out with the stranger and I show it to him. After scanning the picture for a couple of seconds, Jaime's face suddenly turns pale and he starts hyperventilating.

"Oh god, oh god. I can't believe this has happened. She said she loves me, how can she do this to me?"

"It's ok Jaime, it'll all be fine."

"No, it's not going to be fine."

"Yes, it will. The band and myself can help you. Seriously, you'll be fine, don't worry." Jaime stops mumbling and he stares at my face. We end up holding each other's gaze and before I know it, we had leaned into each other until I could feel his warm breath on my skin. I got lost when staring in to his eyes.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" I hear a shrill voice say behind us. My heart stops when I recognise the irritating voice. Shit.
