It was the day. I was so excited. I wake up at 6am, even though the show only started at 5pm, so I had time to waste. I stayed in my PJ's all day, until 4pm. I got a text from Elijah.
E🤣💙: One hour to go. Hope you're awake lazy ass.
Me: Haha funny 😑
I put on some clothes, and then go to get some quick food from Subway.
At 4:27pm me and Elijah get a taxi to the show, and we arrive there at 4:53. Even though we were a bit late we had the VIP tickets to get to the front. After a few minutes the whole crowd starts chanting "Gothboiclique!" and Lil Peep himself comes out from the back and Hellboy starts playing. As soon as he comes out he makes eye contact with me, and then looks down and smirks at the stage floor. That gave me butterflies. I managed to get a few pictures and videos of Peep, but this one was my favourite:
When the show ended me, Elijah, and eight other people showed the security guy their VIP ticket, and two security guys led us through to the back, and one of them pointed to a room and says "in there." We all head in and we see Peep sat on a sofa at the back very quiet, Lil Tracy stood up being loud, Bexey sat at the table being a bit quiet but talkative and Smokesacc sat facing Bexey at the table, also being a bit quiet by talkative. Not many people payed attention to Peep because he was being so quiet. Elijah was messing around with Tracy and a few other people, so I decide to go and talk to Peep now. I sit next to him and say "hi, I'm a really big fan of you." He looks up quite surprised, as though he didn't expect me to speak to him so quick. "Is this a bad time?" I asked him."No no it's fine, I'm just used to not having anyone talk to me because I'm the quietest one here" he tells me. "What's your name?"
"Chelsey" I tell him.
"That's a really nice name." We stare into each others eyes for almost ten seconds, before Tracy shouts "ayo Gus and chick at the back stop being so in love and let's go!"
"Where are we going?" Gus asks, standing up.
"We're showing the fans the tour bus" Tracy says before leading everybody out, except me and Peep. Gus went and shut the door, and says that he thinks of me as more of a fan.
"When I made eye contact from the stage I seriously felt a connection. This feels wrong to do and I'm so sorry if it's too fast, but would you be willing to accept my number?"
"Of course!" I tell him, so excited but trying to play it cool. We save each other under different contacts names, mine being "Chels🥺" in Gus's phone and his being "Peep🐣" in mine. We didn't even join the others in the tour bus, we just got to know each other more. I had to pinch myself a few times, it just didn't feel real. Things like this only happens in dreams, I wasn't used to this.
