Our Time Has Come
New friends
We quickly went through our set, doing only parts of our songs, making sure the tuning of each instrument was right, along with the lighting and smoke machines. Once we were certain that all of our instruments worked perfectly, we placed them aside and let the other band do their soundcheck. The officials were closely watching so no one could cheat. It made me feel safer.
as we walked off the stage, the same group of people came to meet us. "Hey!" The younger girl said. "I honestly think you guys deserve to win! I loved your last show so I decided to come and watch you guys warm up and do soundcheck. I hope it didn't bother you!" "It certainly didn't!" Michael said, smiling. "So what are your names? I asked them. The younger girl was called Isabel, her twin brother was Tristan, the oldest girl was named Jackie, the other boy was Joshua and the last girl was Amanda. Isabel and Tristan were of average height, with green eyes and blonde hair. Tristan was muscular. You could see his abs through his tight shirt. Isabel was thin yet somewhat muscular for a girl. Amanda had red hair and was the tallest. Jackie and Joshua had black hair, Joshua was just as tall as Amanda with blue eyes and Jackie had brown eyes and was shorter than everyone else.
the five of them were all either eighteen, nineteen or twenty. The twins were eighteen, Jackie was nineteen and Joshua and Amanda were twenty. They were dating. Isabel seemed to take an interest in David. Wich was strange to me, since I had never even heard him talk about girlS. I thought he was either gay or he didn't even have a sexuality. I've heard of people like that. Seeing a girl interested in him was something new. Michael seemed to notice too and he shot me an amused look that said it all. I smirked and turned back to the small conversation that had started. They talked about where they had come from and how they found michaels youtube channel and that Isabel practically stalked it. I laughed at the last part. I remembered all of he comments, saying how he was so hot and she wouldn't mind being his friend with benefit. Michael looked at me puzzled and I mouthed "friends with benefits" he seemed to perfectly understand and chuckled. I told the guys that we better hurry and eat before the show. We decided to get some McDonalds. I got a wrap while the others got either hamburgers of cheese burgers. I was the only one, other than Michael that did the back vocals, that had to sing, so I had to be extra careful with the foods. Plus, I didn't want to get tired after three songs!
the others left, promising to be at the show. Jackie Gabe David his number, and Michael gave Isabel his. Now, David was texting Jackie and Michael was trying his best to get usable to understand that he was busy. Iaughed at his failed attempt and he glared at me.
we finished our food and walked back to our tent. I decided to change, but I didn't have my shorts on under my clothes. I decided to take my clothes and ask ash if I could use the bathroom on his bus.
I knocked at the door, and Sammi opened it. "You must be gab! Sammi." "Nice to meet you! Could I use the bathroom? I forgot to wear an undershirt and shorts, and my tent is filled with boys!" She laughed at the last part and let me in. I quickly changed and thanked her. "So, can you explain what happened this morning? The guys weren't sure exactly how to explain it." She asked me. "We'll, Ashley apparently has weird feelings for me, and it's making me feel anxious. I got sick this morning and accidentally mentioned that it was because of Ashley. Michael forced me to tell him what he and said and got so angry. Sometimes, I swear to god, he thinks he's my father! So yeah." "And miachaels your boyfriend?" "No. My best friend. Like Ashley, he's not into relationships. He more like into girls." "You mean inside?" She said with a small chuckle. I started laughing. "Exactly!" I thanked her and walked out, crossing the guys carrying food. I said hello but I didn't have time for anything else.
when I got bak to the tent, the guys were ready. Hayley was tending to some makeup touch ups. I brushed my hair, teased it and pinned it in place. I did my eyeliner and applied some lipstick. I looked at myself in the mirror, and satisfied, I called for everyone's attention.
"okay, here's how it's gonna go. We get on stage. We know our set list, and David counts us in. Watch for my little signals. When I start introducing you guys, well be doing our special intro. Don't stop, just do the three chords that lead to better in my dreams. We rook then out! And David, please don't look like you're watching a boring soap opera please?" "Hey!that one time it happened I was tired and it was the most noring song ever written!" "Calm your tits dude!" Jacob laughed.
we did our ore-show ritual and ran to the stage. I looked at the judges and recognized a couple of people. Kellin, Ashley, Vic, Matt and a buch of other people.
i nervously spun my mic in my hand. Michael grabbed my arm and pulled me on the floor beside him. He softly sang set the world on fire as we waited to be called on stage. I could hear the crowd gathering, getting louder by the minute.
"Green Barons on in 5!" Someone yelled. I got up and warmed up my voice again, with zachs help. Well, his violins help to be more precise.
"Green Barons on in thirty seconds"
"ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one"
"SHOT THROUGH THE HEART, AMD YOU'RE TO BLAME DARLING YOU GIVE LOVE, a bad name!" I smirked as The music began. I had started singing while the guys got to their instruments. By the time I said the last name, I was center stage. I felt powerful, like nothing could stop me. And it was probably true. This, is where I belong.
