We're in Alayna's room because it's the biggest. We put on Joker Out's music, of course. Vse Kar Vem is playing in the background while we are enthousiastically going through our outfit options.
"Okay, so I was thinking this flower blouse with these flowy pants," Alayna holds up her outfit for me to judge.
"Hmm, I like it, it's definitely giving Bojan's Eurovision look, but maybe too much?" she nods in agreement and pulls out some flared jeans.
"Perfect," I smile. I've already had my outfit ready for months now. I started thinking of what to wear before they even came to Eurovision. I have been following them for 2 years now, and I wasn't able to make it to the London pre-party this year, which just broke my heart. But I'm even happier that they're here now!
I put on my denim skirt, colourful tee and some tights.
Then we move onto make-up, we try to match it to our outfits. I must say, in the end, we look perfect. You can definitely see that we are sisters. Our eyes, nose and height are all exactly the same. People used to think we were twins, but as we got older that kind of stopped.
I quickly run up to the attic to look through the window. They have put up barricades at the entrance of the venue but no one's there yet. "If we go now we'll be first!" I scream.
"Well, let's go then!!" Alayna screams back. I pack my bag with my phone, lipgloss, the printed out ticket, my ID card and some gum. Not even 10 minutes later, we're out the door.
We are walking fast towards the venue, and secure our place once we get there.
"Aaah, I can't believe we will be standing right in front of them in a few hours!!" Alayna screams and she starts shaking me up and down. She is clearly excited, I am so glad I got her to listen to the band. Being here with her is just amazing.
"I know right! Wait let's take a picture," I propose. Me and Alayna pose in front of the camera holding our tickets and with the venue door in the background. I put it on my story with the caption: "See you soon @ joker_out_official :)".
Not even 10 minutes later, while we are discussing what song we think they'll play first, I get a DM from Kris! Not going to lie, I kind of hoped he would take a look at my story.. it's the whole reason I posted it. This is getting out of hand to be honest, I've never posted something because I wanted so desperately for someone to notice me.. What is this man doing to me??
@ krisgusti: oh wow, you're there already?? You arrived before we did 😅
"Oh my god, they're not even here yet!" I tell Alayna. "What?? You're kidding? Are they on their way?"
@ sophiamullerr: oh oops 🙃 guess I really am too excited to see you again :) are you all on your way?
@ krisgusti: ;) we're 10 minutes away. Is there anyone else besides you guys yet?
@ sophiamullerr: no, we're the only ones
@ krisgusti: guess we'll see you soon then! :)
Of course, when I show Alayna this she completely freaks out and starts to fix her hair in the window. And I start to get nervous too.. meeting them yesterday was so special and it still kind of feels like a dream! And DMing with Kris doesn't even really feel like I'm talking to THE Kris Guštin... but it will feel very real very soon.
The ten minutes fly by for some reason. I'm trying really hard not to sweat my make-up off from all the anxiety. Then I see a couple guys approaching us in the distance. I have my heart shaped sunglasses on, so I can see very clearly who they are. Our boys. Smiling and actually walking towards us. Alayna pinches my arm.
"Hey Sophia! It's nice to see you again," Bojan arrives first and gives me a hug. "Nice to see you too! This is my sister, Alayna, who I was telling you about yesterday," he greets her and hugs her too.
Behind him is Nace, who hugs and greets us too.
And then there he is. Kris looks even better than yesterday, which is unimaginable considering he probably only has had 4 hours of sleep and a bad hangover. He has the biggest smile on his face, and the sun that's coming from behind him basically lights him up like an angel.
"Hey Soph," he smiles and gives me the best, most sincere hug I've ever had. He also smells incredibly nice, sort of like a sweet, smokey vanilla, which suits him perfectly. When he pulls back we hold eye contact for what seems like forever. When I finally take my eyes away from his I notice that everyone around us is staring.
"Uhh, so, Sophia," Kris says, to get rid of the awkward silence. "This is Jan and Jure,"
I laugh. "Yes, I am aware of that. It's nice to meet you guys!" they both greet me and give me a hug. When they pull away from me, I notice that Kris is still standing next to me and he has his hand on my back. It's a very light touch, but it's definitely there. Maybe he doesn't even notice that he's doing it himself. I start to feel a little hot and nervous, but at the same time I feel very much at ease when standing next to him like this.
We talk for a while. The vibe is really relaxed, even Alayna isn't so tense anymore, even though I had never seen her so nervous. They give us a couple of spoilers for the set list tonight and compliment our outfits.
"We should really get inside now for the soundcheck, we would invite you in but we unfortunately aren't allowed. We'll see you in a while and Kris has told me that you already have an idea for the after party?" Bojan asks after about 10 minutes of talking. "Yes, we have a great club in mind," Alayna answers, smiling.
"Great! Well, take care ladies, we will see you soon," Jan says with a wink. We say goodbye to the group as they go in.
For a second, we debate going out to quickly get some food, but not even 2 minutes later, a line starts to form behind us. And then the waiting game begins. A couple of hours left and we will be inside, listening to the best music ever.
