Forever...?

Chapter 9

(Raise Your Glass By P!NK)

It was a couple hours after Nick left and I was packing the car.

The boys were still at work, but they left the car here because I told them I would pack it so we could just leave once they were finished.

We had a last minute change tonight, and had an extra concert tonight, so we had to be there by around 9, and it was currently almost 7.

So we had to step on it. I got Blaze into the back seat right as Abu arrived. He had offered to drive, but I beat him to it. He sat in the backseat with Blaze.

Dlo was the second to arrive and got into the backseat with no arguments. I knew it had to be not comfortable back there, both of them being above 6 foot and with a big dog.

Yomar arrived not even a minute later and got into the passenger's seat, and as soon as he did, I took off. We were ready to take on Miami.

We weren't tired and I think that was because we were all so excited.

I never thought we would see the day where we just kept growing. I thought after my dad's passing we would just give it all up. But we didn't. We had a point to prove to our families that constantly gave us shit for being in a band.

"The Rejects taking over Miami?" I asked, looking in the rear view mirror.

"The Rejects are taking over Miami!!!!!" Dlo shouted, before Yomar plugged his phone into the aux and started playing music.

"HEY HEY YOU YOU!" Dlo shouted, putting the windows down in the back.

"I DON'T LIKE YOUR GIRLFRIEND!" I screamed back.

"NO WAY NO WAY!"

"I THINK YOU NEED A NEW ONE!"

"HEY HEY YOU YOU!"

"I COULD BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND"

This went through the entire song, us back and forth.

"We shouldn't have let Ace drive." Yomar said, looking back at Abu.

"I tried to get her to not, but she refused."

By the time we got to our hotel, we were too energetic. It was 8:30, which meant we had to unpack the car, and get to the venue.

The guys took the bags upstairs as I walked around outside with Blaze. He was coming with us, like always.

"Can I pet your dog?" A girl behind me said.

I turned around and nodded my head with a smile.

She looked around 8 and there was a male standing behind her, probably around 20 something.

The girl then sat down on the floor and started petting him as I stood there awkwardly. How am I supposed to react to this? Like do I just run away with him? Do I-

"Thank you." The guy said, causing me to awkwardly smile.

"It's not a problem.." I said, I was trying not to mess up because of my anxiety.

"You have an accent? Where are you from?"

I looked around, trying to see if the guys were coming out anytime soon.

"Uh yeah. I'm from Italy."

"I've never met an Italian before, I guess I can cross this off my bucket list."

I laughed awkwardly, hoping the conversation would stop.

"What are you here for? Like are you staying at the hotel?"
