*jessie*

Holly: we are going out tonight- no matter what you say ok!

Jess: im not getting out of this so yeah

Holly: dress... nice but comfy

Jess: why?

Holly: because I said so *wink* oh, oh that playsuit you got the other day would be great

Jess: ok, bye

*end of call*

I feed Jackson and have a shower. When I get out I text cam to let him know

Text to other babe: hiya babe, holly is taking me out tonight- I don't know when ill be back... hope works ok love you xxx

I chuck my phone on the bed and pick out my camo green playsuit. I put little boot heels on and leather jacket. I straighten my hair into a shape bob and then do natural eyes and deep purple lips. I hear holly beep outside and grab my bag and go.

Jess: so where we going?

Holly: a gig

Jess: what gig?

Holly: shh, wait and see

I roll my eyes and look out the window.

*Danny*

Mark: ready lads?

Glen: yep

Danny: lest smash it!

The music for paint the town green kicks in and we all run on. I jump about raving the crowd. Once I start singing my eyes only scan for one thing- jess. I look all up the middle row and shes there. She actual came! I smile and suddenly feel all nervous.

we continue with our normal set- I persuaded the lads to make it good for jess.

Danny: LONDON how we doing?

Crowd: *cheer*

Danny: im just gonna talke a bit while they set up... most of you will know I went through quite a harsh time last year- this year... a girl I cared for more than anything in this world left me because I didn't show her how much she meant to me-

Crowd: awh

Danny: no, no, no don't awh me because I don't deserve any sympathy- I deserve everything I get. Everyone says 'get a grip, move on' but the truth is I don't wanna move on... but she has, shes got a boyfriend and I cant even look at another girl... anyway, you can tell the songs ive dedicated to her already, we are going to do our covers now... she knows who she is...

Mark and glen start up. Jess avoids eye contact with me.

Danny: He could be a sinner, or a gentleman

He could be your preacher, when your soul is down

He could be your lawyer on a witness stand but

He'll never love you like I can, can

He could be a stranger, he gave a certain glance

He could be a trophy, of a one night stand

He could have your humour, but I don't understand cause

He'll never love you like I can, can, can

Why are you looking down all the wrong roads

When mine is the heart and the soul of the song

There may be lovers who hold out their hands but

He'll never love you like I can, can, can

A chance encounter of circumstance
