"There is no fucking way this is real." Charlie whispered to himself as he stared at the email, his hand hovering over the trackpad of his laptop.

He was scared to click on the email, since he was sure it wasn't real. Having a small following of his music, 50k on Instagram and 15k on YouTube, he was used to getting fake emails promising fame and fortune. But for once, a feeling in the pit of Charlie's stomach was telling him this was the real deal and that terrified him.

"DANNY I NEED YOU." Charlie screamed, not caring if he woke up the people in the neighboring apartments. He was simply full of too many feelings to experience this moment alone.

"What the actual fuck Charlie." muttered Daniel as he stumbled into Charlie's room. The red imprint of a pillow on his face signaled to Charlie that his friend had previously been deeply asleep and most likely in a very weird position. "Someone better be dead or dying with the way you screamed for me. I'm not even joking."

"Better than that. Daniel. Look at my email." breathed Charlie, barely even able to flip the laptop around to show his sleep roommate.

"Okay great. I'm looking. Jesus why do you have so many emails about Starbucks rewards like damn dude." Charlie rolled his eyes. "Oh. Oh the top one. I'm assuming that's why you yelled at me and woke me from my beauty sleep."

Charlie nodded. And there it was, his confirmation that this email was indeed in his inbox and he had not just hallucinated it.

"So...you gonna open the email or are we just gonna be sitting in your room until dawn?" asked Daniel eagerly, his whole demeanor changing from annoyed to excited as he shoved Charlie over and sat down next to him on the bed.

"No no. I'm just like...really nervous. Like really really nervous. If this is real this could literally change my life, Danny." said Charlie, his warm brown eyes widening with possibility as he looked over at his friend.

"Exactly. So just OPEN IT!!!" yelled Daniel as he decided to take matters into his own hands, shoving Charlie's hand off of the computer and opening the email on his behalf.

Charlie let out a squeak as the email filled his computer, hungrily reading through it as if he had been waiting for this email his entire life. As his eyes followed the email down the screen, his jaw continued to get lower and lower and heart rate get quicker and quicker.

"One of our artists and his producer would like to meet with you tomorrow at our LA office to discuss you joining his tour as the opening act in North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom." he read, barely even able to believe the words he was reading. An artist from Republic Records wanted to tour with HIM? An aspiring musician who made songs and posted them online hoping and dreaming of becoming successful? He immediately felt bad for these thoughts, cursing himself for mentally sounding like a pick me.

"If they do choose to have you join them on tour and the tour is successful, we would like to be in discussion with you in regards with us hoping to sign you." he continued reading, tears filling his eyes. This was it, he thought. The beginning of his dreams coming true.

"Wow man, they wanna MEET YOU tomorrow since apparently they want you to open for one of their artist's world tours and then if that goes well offer you a record deal." gasped Daniel, pride for his friend filling his voice.
