Skin and Bones
Chapter 20
The next couple of months went really fast actaully. Mom and dad desided they're not coming home until after New Years, which is whatever, I guess. Vic and I can take care of ourselves, we have been... Tony and I have been doing well if you're wondering. He's done a pretty good job keeping the voices away, I haven't heard them since we got together. My quiet head was weird at first, but now it's peaceful, I like it.
I now weigh 104 pounds, the goal that Tony and Vic set for me is 150. That number scares me, the amount of calories I have to eat every day to get their(1,000) scares me. But I'm taking baby steps, and I know that Vic and Tony will be helping me every step of the way. It's a struggle sometimes, and somedays I just can't get out of bed. On those days, Tony comes over and we watch movies from the comfort of my bed. He helps me so much, and he doesn't even know it... Or maybe he does, I don't know...
Today is the last day of the 1st semester, the day before winter break and the day we perform our songs for music. We've had ours done since the weekend Tony and I got together... It's been practiced to perfection, but no one has heard it other than us. We have it recorded still, I'm not entirely sure why though, we're not going to forget it.
I sat at my computer in first period, finishing up my semester 1 project. Program a 15 second animated movie... God how do people do this for a living? I've been working on it for about 5 hours all together and it's hardly worth a C... I clicked the playback button one last time before turning it in. I programmed a little guy playing the drums and head banging for 15 seconds.
I sighed as the bell rang, I really hate that class with all of my might. I met up with Tony at his 1st period class, seeing his smiling face always makes me feel better. I saw him standing there, his short hair perfectly styled. He wore skinny jeans with a grey hennly. I noticed that their was a red stain on his shirt, probably from his cooking class.
He smiled when he saw me, "Ready for music Mikey?"
"You know it Turtle!" I exclaimed, over the last few months his odd obsession with turtles had came into play, so I starting calling him Turtle... And it sort of caught on...
He laughed and started walking towards the music room, I followed him. When we made it to the room, we saw Vic tuning his guitar.
"Hey guys," he said, "We got volunteered to go first..." He shot a death glare towards Austin, Phil and Alan, they were probably the ones that volunteered us... Assholes...
"Sounds good!" Tony exclaimed, walking over to his guitar.
I went to the drums and starting setting them up to my liking.
When the bell rang Ms. Pope said, "Ok guys, I'm really excited to hear what you guys have been working on all semester. Vic, Mike and Tony have volunteered to go first so, the floor's yours guys."
"The song we wrote is called, Chemical Kids and Mechanical Brides, and we worked really hard on it... So we hope you like it," Vic stated.
Tony started the first chord and Vic started his chord and then began to sing;
Like a rush shot through you
Everyone is watching you
I started the druming at my desginated cue.
Told you why I see no need for the sun
(I found a reason to say)
A love you light is a love soon gone
If this is it
Don't bother cause this love is a lie
I'm a chemical kid
You're a mechanical bride.
When every vein is red out of the blue
I held a diamond to the sun
To count the moments on account of the way you
Smile (smile) for me
Oh, we're in slow motion when you
Smile (smile) for me
But oh my God I've been looking
But I still hold your breath so you won't leave
Pastel red and porn star white
Ghost on the altar
We breathe don't leave
Say that the night sings alone
And if there's a God
Then I'm letting Him go
All for you
You alone
Raise my hands
At the thought of you leaving me alone...
(Light Fires, Light fires, Light fires, all, damn, day! )
Don't torture me or beg me
Can you make me believe in tiring
As you fall fast asleep it reminds me
Of the slow symphonies behind me
They sing along
All the nightmares you'll see tomorrow
All the stars on your ceiling they glow
But not for you
Through the trees I'll blow
When we were done, we looked up to see that everyone's jaw was open. It took them a second to realize we were done, and when they did, everyone started clapping.
"That was great guys!" Ms. Pope exclaimed, "I really liked how different it was... Good luck going after that!"
I looked at Tony and Vic, they were both smiling widely. I felt myself do the same thing. We walked away from the stage and sat back down. I don't know about them, but the adreniline rush was enough to keep me moving for the rest of the day.

Notes
HAPPY 20 CHAPTERS GUYS! Woo! 75% of Pierce the Veil having their first performance together! I find it funny that not a single one of you has asked why Jaime isn't in this story... It's like you're still mad at him from my last fanfiction. :3If you were wondering, I came up with how they looked myself. Them changing a lot after highschool is basically a major plot point in the sequel I have planned...
Not a joke Lottie, I have big things planned >:p
(P.S.) Do you guys like Fuenciado? This is a need to know, please answer question...
@X_hello_hello_X
