allys pov. the next day (saturday)
┌─────────⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────────┐
i woke up in james bed with his arms snaked around my waist. i rubbed my eyes and yawned looking out his small window.
it seemed to be around ten am maybe? i turned around so i was facing him and i kissed his cheeks in attempt to wake him up.
he groaned a bit but still didn't wake up, so i moved his hair over his face.
he then fluttered his eyes open and realised what was happening. he laughed a bit at my antics and kissed me back, with his arms still sitting comfortably around my waist.
i rested my forehead against his, i looked into his beautiful ocean blue eyes and said "hi", he laughed and replied "hi".
i pushed his hair back out of his face and said "what did you wanna do today?" he shrugged and said "whatever you feel up to".
i looked at his poster covered wall trying to think of stuff we could do, "you know that gig cliff told you about yesterday, they moved it to tonight" he smiled. i looked back at him with the biggest smile and said "oh my god james! im so happy for you!".
"yeah the venue called and asked if we could play tonight because the other band that was playing cancelled" he exclaimed.
"wow, are you excited? im excited" laughed.
we decided we were gonna go get breakfast for the rest of the guys while they were still asleep. we got in james car and drove around trying to decide what to get.
i kind of forgot that we were in our pajamas but like i mean at the end of the day who cares.
we ended up at a cafe style type thing. james and i were looking at the menu and we thought since everyone liked pancakes we'll just get that.
we got the take away pancakes and i thought well since it's a special day we should also get some donuts.
we walked to a near by bakery and i bought a box donuts. after we got the goods we walked back to the car and drove home.
when we arrived home no one was awake yet so i set up the food on the table with plates, it looked like we had made the food.
when everything looked nice i decided it was time to wake everyone up. first kirk. i quietly walked towards his room and slowly opened his door. he was laying on his back looking so peaceful.
oh well.
i jumped onto the bed and said "morning kirk!" loud enough so he would wake up but not loud enough so the others would wake up. he groaned in annoyance but still couldn't hide his smile. i smiled back and said "james and i bought breakfast" he shot up and wiped his eyes while saying "breakfast" i laughed at him.
"so wanna help me wake up lars and cliff?" i questioned. kirk nodded and replied "definitely". kirk and i ran out of his room like kids to get james and then the three of us ran into cliffs room. we all jumped on him.
he said "what the hell?" while pushing us off his bed.
we were laughing our asses off now on the ground.
but since that little attempt didn't work we dragged him out of bed.next lars. we walked into his room, james, kirk and i jumped on him while cliff stood in the doorframe shaking his head. "fock!" lars yelled making me burst out laughing. again.
once we told him we bought breakfast he forgave us and got out of bed. we all sat at the table and started eating the food, while we all talked about the gig tonight.
i was so excited this will be the first time i will have ever seen them play. of course ive heard them practice but i've never seen them on a stage.
we finished the food and washed up. some time passed. i got dressed into... not pajamas and the guys practiced a bit more making sure they were tight for their set.
from what i could hear they sounded great, when they finished practicing kirk remembered "my friend finished making those shirts anyone wanna come pick them up with me?"
"why not?" lars said heading out the door. "ill come" i added while putting my shoes on, "how far is it?" i questioned as kirk and i walked out the door. "like 10 minutes" he said while getting in the car.
lars was already in the passenger seat. we all got in and kirk started driving, i didn't say much on the drive there because lars and kirk seemed to be having a pretty interesting convo of their own.
when we arrived at kirks friends house we went inside and picked up all shirts he printed which looked so sick. we put all the shirts in the backseat with me and drove back to the guys house.
when we got home we brang the boxes inside and we all put one of the newly made metallica shirts on and i took some photos of all them like a proud mother.
in the meantime before the gig i chilled and layed around had a soe or two while they practiced some more and wrote their setlist.
they said they were gonna do all originals.
it was now around six pm. james, cliff and i were in one car while kirk, lars and lars drum kit were in another car.
we headed over to the small venue and we got everything set up. i felt like a proper roadie. when we finished unpacking all the gear we all were backstage having a beer.
kirk and james were sitting on the small couch with barely any room between them so i layed down on top of them and joined their conversation.
some of the other local bands that were playing tonight came in and introduced themselves. they mentioned they thought it was gonna be a pretty good turn out of people.
at around 6:30 pm the first band started playing. they were pretty good, i tried to drag james into the mosh but he said "i don't wanna break anything before i play", i understood his worries but i couldn't pass up a chance to mosh.
each bands set was around half an hour so the band that was just playing finished. i could see the boys on the side of the stage. i waved at james and he gave me a nod and a nervous smile back.
a older man with long white hair came on to the stage and leaned into the mic while saying "everyone please a round of applause for our second band tonight who so kindly agreed to play last minute...welcome metallica!"
everyone cheered and clapped and yelled as they all walked on stage and plugged their guitars in.
"thank you!" kirk cheered back at them.
james grabbed the mic stand with both hands and said "so as you may know we are metallica and tonight we will be be preforming some original songs for ya. how does that sound?".
the audience all cheered again and james nodded at them.
then james started playing the intro to hit the lights. everyone in the moshpit went crazy. i had the best time and the guys set was amazing. after there set i had to quickly run to the merch stand because everyone wanted a metallica shirt.
when they had finished playing james finally joined me in the mosh and we stayed there until the other bands had finished playing.
many people in the mosh shook james hand and told him how good their set was. i could tell he didn't really know how to react to all the compliments but i knew he was thankful.
