OK. OK. I’m gonna die. I’m gonna die. I can’t help but stare at the piece of paper that’s in my grasp. Inspecting to make sure it’s real. Yep, it’s legit. So, this must be a dream and I’m going to wake up any minute…any minute now… OK, so this isn’t a dream. I’m actually going to see Black Veil Brides in concert. Black. Veil. Brides.

Alright Carolyn, don’t fan-girl. Investigating the ticket more I realise that I also have a backstage pass. I’m going to meet Ashley-freaking-Purdy. What do ya know? Dreams can come true.

So, maybe I should introduce myself yeah?

Well, I’m Carolyn. Yes, like the song.

I’m commonly known as ‘the emo girl’

I have pale skin, black hair and bright blue eyes.

I also play bass.

I have no friends besides Zack. He’s emo and plays guitar. He’s my best friend EVER. NO, we would never date but no he’s not gay/bisexual.

Back to the story now.

I looked up at Zack who had a grin spread on his face. I jumped up and hugged him as tight as possible.

‘Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!!’ I screamed in his ear. He must have saved up for these tickets for months. He laughed.

‘Anything for my best friend,’ he replied pulling away from the embrace.

‘I can’t believe you bought these!’ I was still in disbelief.

‘Well you deserve the best for your birthday,’ he smiled at me. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. It’s my birthday. This was my only birthday present. My parents disowned me the moment I turned 16 four years ago and I’m an only child. I looked at the date and the concert is next week!

‘Next week?! Oh my god! I have no time to prepare!’ I exclaimed, slightly irritated. Zack gave me a funny look.

‘You have no time? You have a WEEK! Seven days. 168 hou-‘ I cut him off.

‘Exactly! I have to buy a new outfit and and-UGH!’ I flopped back onto my bed. Zack chuckled at me.

‘You’re such a girl,’ I gave him a look.

‘Nah shit Sherlock!’ I said in a duh voice. He rolled his eyes.

‘I’m going to bed,’ he said getting up. Oh yeah, we live together.

‘OK, NIGHT!’ I called once he was out the door. He stopped just so he could stick his hand in the doorway and flip me off. I smirked knowing I annoyed him.

I held the ticket up in front of my face before bringing it to my lips and kissing it. I was so excited. I reached over and put it on my bedside table. I glanced at the shiny object that as hidden beneath a piece of paper. I grabbed the blade and looked at it.

‘Guess I won’t need you tonight baby,’ I whispered as I put it back in its place. No one knew I cut. Not even Zack, though I’m sure he had his suspicions. I got up and changed into a plain black shirt and black sweatpants. I crawled back into bed, under my black covers and let a welcomed darkness power over me.
