Last Christmas (Alex Gaskarth)

2 hours then

Time: 3:13 PM

"So okay you probably know us, right?"  

A couple of screams and adorations from the fans.  

"Yeah we love you too"  

More screams.  

"Haha, okay. Well we don't get much time 'round here, damn it."  

A few laughs and whistles. She hears a girl shouting something at them but she could only make out the words screw and Jalex. Then- God how she misses that laugh."  

"Okay. Jack what can you say about that?"  

There is slight pause and scattered laughs from the crowd. "Now okay. Most of the songs we are going to play are dedicated to people, who need some love this Christmas and for people who...regret some things,and want to have...second chances."  

A few of the girls start to scream 'I love you's for him, causing Alex to chuckle at this. "Anyway these are for you and Merry Christmas!"  

Seconds later of silence Jack starts to strum the strings of his guitar. Then Alex starts to sing.  

"I don't want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing I need."  

Strum. "I don't give a shit about the presents, underneath the Christmas tree." A couple of cheers from the crowd.  

Strum. "I just want you for my own, more than you could ever know."  

"Please make my wish come true.  

All I want for Christmas,  

Is you."  

Krista turns her head at this, the crowds cheering as Rian starts to play the drums. Everyone seems to jump at this and clap at the beat, causing her hands to shake and heart racing.  

Now she knows why her friends want her to stay.  

She moves a few meters closer to get a better view, watching him hold the microphone with a smile.  

"I don't want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing I need."  

The woman slowly begins to pace at the ground's entrance with anticipation.  

"I don't care about the presents, underneath the Christmas tree." 

But she suddenly caught herself from doing so. What is she doing? It's just a song...and she's over him, remember? Krista looks at him expectantly though, as he smiles and enjoys the song at the stage. Oh look, see? He's enjoying, and why is she still here? Krista walks forward to get a better view of hi- She snaps out of herself and starts to utter curses. What is she trying to get from this? Oh yes, this is because of the still mere attraction going on in her head. Damn you stupid mere fucking attraction! And why won't she just get over it? She is with Callum and this is disloyalty, woman. Disloyalty. She turns her head and closes her eyes while his voice -argh! Krista couldn't help herself but walk towards the entrance. This is just an attraction, as she remembers, and not a...a... Okay this is just a very simple attraction, which is more like, appreciation. Correct, an attraction-appreciation towards him, which is really so mere. She is simply appreciating his enjoyment towards the music he is giving for his audience and just that. Period. She is not disloyal towards Callum, but just a civilized being recognizing the attraction-appreciation she has for another civilized being in the United States of America. Hmm. Very logical. 

Krista stands there with her clammy hands in the midst of the freezing air, the civilized being trying to wipe the sweat away with her coat while her heartbeat does not slow down. Krista chugs the cup of vanilla chai down her throat.
