~Imogen POV~
"Beth!" I yelled out to her as I watched her hit the deck. Protection mode set into me as I began to force my way through the crowd to get to her. "Move! Get out the way!" I screamed at people as I worked through them.
"Hang on guys!" I heard Noah say into his microphone as the band continued to play. I looked up and saw that Noah had spotted Beth as she was pinned to the barrier passed out. Just as I got to her, Noah had come down off the stage and over to her. "Beth! Beth?! I'm here!" I said as I grabbed her. Her face was covered in sweat and she was out cold.
"Hey, is she okay?" Noah asked as he stood directly opposite me on the other side of the barrier. Fans started to freak out about Noah being so close to them and taking their phones out to record, but I didn't care about that. My priority was to get Beth to safety.
"No, she's out. I need to get her out of here!" I yelled.
"Here, come over, we'll get her backstage." Noah said as he raised his arms out to her. Where the fuck was security? Why were they not helping? I didn't hesitate as I began to lift Beth upwards so Noah could grab her and pull her over the barrier. He princess style carried her over as I pushed myself up over the barrier to follow. Just as I got over, a security guard came running over to us. "Take her and her friend backstage, make sure she has plenty of water." said Noah as he handed Beth over to security.
"Okay, this way." said security as he began to lead us backstage.
"Thank you!" I yelled back to Noah. He gave me a concerned smile and nodded before heading back up on the stage to finish his set. I never thought my first meeting of Noah Sebastian would be this way but it was an experience and a half.
"Sorry about that guys! Safety of the crowd first!" I heard Noah say to the crowd before he began to continue with his show. Security led us to behind the stage where a lounge chair was set up and he placed Beth on it. I knelt down beside her and started to lightly tap her face to see if I could get her to come to.
"Water! Can you get her water, please?" I asked security.
"Of course." he said as he walked off to go find some. She was going to freak out when she woke up, I knew it. The security guard came back with two bottles of water and two lanyards.
"Here you go. And put these on, so you don't get kicked out of back here." he said as he handed them to me. I looked down at the lanyard and it read 'Download AAA'.
"Awesome, thank you." I replied.
"You sure you don't need a medic for her?"
"No, she'll come to soon. It's not the first time I've seen this." I smiled at him. He gave me grin back before walking away. It felt weird being backstage, seeing all the equipment and crew just hanging around. I was scoping out the area until a pile of objects caught my eye. I could see Freddy Krugers glove, the Necronomicon, Candyman's hook and then I suddenly realised. That was all Ice Nine Kills props for their set!
"Imogen?" I heard a voice behind me. I spun around and locked eyes with Spencer. He was dressed in his iconic Horrorwood suit, preparing.
"Oh, hi!" I said as I felt a nervous quake flow through my body.
"How are you? Did you get my message?" he said as he came closer to me. I stood myself up and went to go shake his hand but he went straight in for a hug, which I didn't resist. It wasn't just a quick light hug either, it was a proper squish.
"I'm good and no sorry I haven't checked my phone, I was in the Bad Omens crowd and looking after this one." I said, pointing at Beth.
"Oh shit, is she okay?" Spencer asked, genuinely concerned.
"Yeah, she'll be fine. She overheated in the crowd but I've got her." I said. As I said that, I heard a groan come from Beth.~Beth POV~
I slowly opened my eyes, having blurred vision. I groaned as I heard my surroundings come in.
"Beth!" I heard Imogen's voice. I sat myself up and started to figure out my surroundings until I suddenly had a face full of boobs as Imogen grabbed my head and hugged me. "Are you okay? I brought you water!" she said to me. I flailed my arms as my face squished into her breasts.
"Imogen...air!" I struggled.
"Shit, sorry!" she said as she released me.
"The last thing anyone wants after passing out is a face full of boob!" I said as I sat up fully.
"Speak for yourself." I heard a voice say. I looked over and saw Spencer Charnas stood next to Imogen. I blinked hard and rubbed my eyes, making sure I wasn't still dreaming. Imogen looked at Spencer and smirked as he let out a cheeky smile on his face.
"What...how...when?" I stuttered, not sure what was going on. I could still hear Bad Omens performing.
"At least you know you passed out." said Imogen.
"That's all I know...h-how am I here? Where...where are we?" I asked, looking around.
"So, as you know, you passed out so Noah very kindly helped me take you backstage and-"
"Wait, what? What did you say?" I asked, making sure I heard her right.
"Noah carried you." she repeated.
"What!? No he didn't, shut up! Oh my god!" I freaked, placing my hands on my sweaty head.
"Are you okay?" Spencer asked.
"She's fine...big Bad Omens fan." Imogen said to him.
"I'm so embarrassed this isn't happening!" I said. No way did Noah carry me out the crowd, this wasn't real!
"Beth, chill! Have some water! You need to calm down!" said Imogen as she handed me a bottle of water. I shakily took it off of her and tried to regulate my breathing. I took a sip of water and felt the coolness run down my throat. I took a second to calm myself down as I didn't want to go into a panic attack again.
"I can't believe this. First I face plant Jolly, then Noah carries me unconscious and now I meet you whilst looking a mess!" I said as I directed at Spencer.
"A hot mess." said Imogen as she finger gunned and winked at me.
"It's not an issue! I'm gonna look terrible once I get off that stage, don't sweat it!" Spencer said, warmly. I could tell why Imogen liked him, he was very soothing to be around.
"Which is why we should make that content!" Imogen said as she stood herself up. I caught Spencer give her a quick down and up, checking her out.
"Let's do it! What do you have in mind?" Spencer asked her. I watched them walk off to the side and discuss the plan as Imogen began to take out her collapsible tripod. I've passed out and had many panic attacks before so Imogen knew I was okay. She was always there when I was going through them and she knew exactly how to care for me and calm me down so it was normal for her to just carry on, knowing I could handle the aftermath myself. I wasn't a complete baby. But she was right about my clothing choice, it was definitely too hot for that but I couldn't risk my arms and legs being on show.
I watched Imogen set up her tripod and clip her mini mics to herself and to Spencer. I could definitely see some chemistry between those two, the way he looked at her. Spencer had grabbed a ghostface mask for their content and I had an idea of what they were planning to do. All of a sudden, I heard Noah through the microphone, talking to the crowd.
"We have been Bad Omens, thank you!" Oh no damn! I missed their whole show!? I saw 1 and a half songs!? I felt glumness take over my body and looked down. That's when I spotted a lanyard in my lap. I picked it up and saw it was an access all areas lanyard. I looked over at Imogen and saw she was wearing one around her neck too. Did Spencer get us these? I placed it around my neck and then looked up towards the stage exit and that's when I froze. I saw the band. I saw Bad Omens coming off the stage. Nicholas, Nick, Jolly and then...Noah. He had a towel around his neck, wiping his face. I couldn't take my eyes off him. He was so tall! Then, he turned his head and spotted me and I didn't know what to do. He smiled at me and then began to walk towards me. I quickly flattened my hair down to stop the strays and made sure my face wasn't sweaty as he approached.
"Hey, Blonde Ghost, right?" said Noah as he held a hand out to me.
"I...uh...yes! C-call me Beth." I stuttered as I held my hand and shook his.
"You okay now?" he asked.
"I'm...I'm great, thanks. Sorry." I said. Noah let out a little laugh.
"Don't apologise, not your fault you passed out."
"Oh god." I said, putting my head in my hands. "Th-thanks for, you know...carrying me out. I'm such a pain, hope I didn't hurt you?" I said, feeling my cheeks become red.
"No, no, not at all! You're as light as feather." laughed Noah. Jolly spotted Noah talking to me and came over to join us.
"Hey man- hey! Face plant girl!" smiled Jolly as he clocked me.
"Oh no." I said, quietly.
"How're you doing?" he said as he held his hand out to me.
"Good." I replied, nervously.
"Don't call her that!" Noah told him off. "Beth, you said your name was, right?"
"Y-yes." I replied.
"Sorry, I just remember you from the plane." added Jolly. "Anyways, we got encore."
"Right, yeah, two secs." Noah said as he walked off. "Sorry about him, he's a joker. I'm guessing you missed most of our show, wanna watch the encore from the sideline?" Noah offered.
"Really?" I asked, surprised.
"Yeah, you won't get crushed watching it from there." he smiled, holding his hand out for me to grab. I shakily took his hand as he pulled me to my feet. Our height difference was ridiculous, he was towering over me. Noah didn't let go of my hand, but just smiled and led me over to the sideline. I passed Imogen and Spencer and gave her a look of shock and happiness. She was editing the video with Spencer but caught me and gave me a huge smile and thumbs up. We were both with our dream men, it was insane.
"You good here?" Noah asked as he stopped right on the side of the stage so I could watch. I nodded my head and smiled. "Good." he smiled back as he let go of my hand. He raised the microphone to his mouth as walked out on stage. "Concrete!"
"Jungle!" the crowd shouted back to him.
"Concrete!"
"Jungle!" His unclean vocals gave me shivers. I took my phone out to record as Dethrone began to play.~Imogen POV~
"Okay, yeah, we got it!" I said as Spencer and I watched the content we just made.
"Yes, that's awesome." he said. "Do you want to check out our props? We have a few for the show." Spencer directed me to over where they had the props prepared.
"I spotted them earlier but didn't get get a proper look, they're so cool!" I said, admiring the detail. I picked up the Candyman hook and studied it.
"That's probably one of my favourite props." said Spencer as he took it out of my hand.
"Oh yeah? Candy man is definitely iconic and Farewell II Flesh is one of my favourite songs!"
"Bless you." said Spencer, thankfully. "Want to know the real reason I like it so much?"
"Go for it."
"Because you can do this!" said Spencer as he reached his arm around me and used the hook around my throat, pulling me back to him and resting his head on my shoulder. He was quite forceful but also gentle; it got me flustered. "And now you're my victim." he said in my ear, sending a chill down my spine.
"This would make a good picture." I said, trying to keep my cool. I got my phone back out of my bag and pulled up the front camera, snapping a selfie of me and Spencer as he held my throat. Did he know what he was doing? Was this his way of flirting? Because I enjoyed it. Spencer released me, leaving me a little hotter than I was before.
"So, yeah, those are our props." said Spencer as he went back to normal conversation. "You gonna watch the show from here?"
"We might as well, since we have these passes now." I said, holding up the AAA pass.
"Groovy. Well, we've got to prepare as we're on next, don't go wandering off okay? I want to see you after the show." Spencer said, pointing at me. It was almost like a demand and I wasn't complaining.
"Of course." I smiled at him. Spencer looked me down and and up again, definitely resting his eyes quickly on my breast before returning to my face again and then headed off. If this was his way of flirting, my god, it was working.
