bruce and i were at the north denver stadium, seeing my favourite band, 'Arctic Monkeys', play at a concert. he had gotten us both tickets for my birthday a couple months back, and it was pure torture waiting for today to roll around.

bruce had been binge-listening to every one of their songs so that he could yell the lyrics with me here. he even played 'do i wanna know' on repeat for 62 hours, just because i told him it was my favourite. he had come to the conclusion that '505' was his favourite, but that 'do i wanna know' was definitely near the top of his rankings.

the concert had started around 6:30pm, and it was now 7:45pm. they had played about 7 songs by now, and when '505' started playing, bruce nearly had a heart attack, he was so excited, and we both screamed the lyrics alongside everyone around us. 'do i wanna know' hadnt played yet, but it wouldnt be long until it did.

i could see bruce trying to tell me something, but i couldnt hear him over all the other people talking. 'what?!' i yelled, and he came closer. 'im gonna go get some food, do you wanna come?' he yelled, and i nodded. he began walking away, and i followed. 'wait bruce, i dont want either of us to get lost' i yelled as i tried to think of how we could make sure we didnt get lost.

suddenly, i felt someone grab my hand, and looked down to see bruce interlacing our fingers. i instantly felt a warm layer of pink coat my facial features, and i knew i was blushing strongly. i mean, i knew why. i had been crushing on bruce for nearly three years, after having best friends since kindergarten, and only realizing i liked him in freshman year.

i tried to hide my blush, and i seemed to be succeeding since bruce didnt seem to notice it as he guided us through the bustling crowds. after maybe three minutes, we made it out of the huge group of people, and started walking to the concession stand.

as we walked, i noticed that bruce hadn't separated our hands. i could feel myself blushing again, and this time bruce looked at me. 'um vance, are you blushing?' he said confusedly, before realizing that our hands were still connected. he smiled lightly, and instead of letting go like i had expected, he squeezed my hand lightly, and started asking the concession stand worker for some snacks.

him squeezing my hand just increased my blush, and he looked back and smiled sweetly at me as the snacks were brought to the counter.
