< Third Person POV >

The members of System Of A Down made it to their show. Everybody was in the back, hanging out and waiting for the show to start.

Serj still felt nervous and Daron noticed. Daron walked to Serj and started rubbing his palm with his thumb.

"Calm down. You're gonna do great." Daron said to Serj, looking at him and smiling.

Serj looked down at their hands and blushed.

Daron pulled out some weed and started smoking it.

"Out here? Really?" Serj jokingly asked Daron.

"Yup. Want some? Calms nerves." Daron offered to Serj.

"You know what, sur—" Serj went to grab the weed, but got cut off by Daron's movement.

Daron inhaled the weed, grabbed Serj's waist, then kissed him. He blew the weed into his mouth. Serj smoked it that way.

Serj had widened eyes. He blew out the weed and stared at Daron.

Daron laughed and smoked the weed again. He looked at Serj and smiled until Serj grabbed his waist and started kissing him.

They kissed for a while.

Serj started to kiss Daron's neck, but then stopped.

"Why'd you stop?" Daron asked, sounding kind of sad.

"Our show is in a few minutes." Serj responded, chuckling.

"Let's go, rockstar." Serj said to Daron while smiling at him.

That would be a quote for him to remember.

They went up on the stage and performed.

It was the best performance to them both; ever.

It was great on stage, but it was also great Before the Show.
