Xandra's POV

We sheepishly follow Chris and the others into the venue and while Riley is talking to Vinny , I tried to find the words to carry a conversation with Chris. But I was too damn nervous. But eventually Chris speaks up.

"So we got a couple minutes before the show so why don't you tell me a bit about you. "

"You want to know about me ?"  I was confused on why he would care to know anything about me. He is of higher caliber than me .

"Well umm... I am 20 years old. I'm originally from London. I graduated highschool at 16 and went to Full Sail University to learn music and I like to sing and direct . My passion is to have a band of my own someday with Riley." I said and he seemed to be paying close attention to every word I was saying .

"Wow. You graduated at 16? You must be very smart and bright." When he complimented me I couldn't help but blush like a mad man.

"Are you trying to flirt with me ?" I said with a bit of confidence.

"Maybe I am." I said.

"Aww look at you two love birds. So damn cute ." Riley teased and I punch her in the arm .

"Ow damn that hurt you bitch."

"I'm queen bitch ." I joked and everyone laughed.

We all stood back stage and talked and played around until it was time for them to get on stage. But Chris pulls me to the side before he went on.

"Let's exchange numbers real fast. I would love to get to know you more." He said and we did just that. When he went on stage I felt Riley's stare and I couldn't help but smile.

"Oh my gosh . He has the total hots for you girl." Riley said and pushed me playfully. I just rolled my eyes and watched the show.

They opened with voices , and then transitioned to Reincarnate, Thoughts and prayers , another life ,and then Rats .
But after that , Chris made the audience quiet down and It was then he turned to me and we locked eyes and I could have sworn he winked at me before he turned back to the audience.

"We have one more song for you all and I would love to have my friend Xandra to come sing it with me. So would you all welcome her here." He said and I couldn't find myself to move , Riley had to push me to get myself together . I entered the stage and I was handed a mic .

"This song is called eternally yours!" He said and I immediately felt my whole body tense up. I haven't performed before and I was nervous as fuck. But I was gonna do this wholeheartedly.

The music began to play and I was excited. I was definitely going to take the first part and debut my screaming skills.

(Xandra)

Blow the bridge to the past
Wipe the fingerprints
Melt your heart encased in wax
Steal it with a kiss
Our fate engraved
Scar enslaved
As we mutually destruct
Repose, my love, I've sinned enough
For the both of us
In the name of love

-Chris was wide eyed and jaw dropped , he clearly didn't expect me to learn how to scream ,it made me feel so proud of myself .-

(Both)
I'm ready to bury all of my bones
I'm ready to lie but say I won't
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To rot in this garden made of stones
Eternally yours
Eternally yours

(Chris)
I feed like you taught me and selflessly swallow
We coalesce in darkness, so selfishly hollow
Examine the wreckage
Writhing in tempo
Invisible anguish, casting a shadow
And in the name of love

(Both)
I'm ready to bury all of my bones
I'm ready to lie but say I won't
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To rot in this garden made of stones
Eternally yours
Eternally yours

(Xandra)
As we rest in pieces, though I know not your name
I would suffer forever to absolve all your pain
And in the name of love

(Both)
I'm ready to bury all of my bones
I'm ready to lie but say I won't
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To rot in this garden made of stones

(Xandr)
I'm ready to bleed to make amends
And sleep in this dirt we call our bed
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To fall and rewrite the bitter end
Eternally yours
Eternally yours
Eternally yours
Eternally yours
Eternally yours
I'm more than willing to rot in hell with you

(Chris)
I'm ready to bury all of my bones
I'm ready to lie but say I won't
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To rot in this garden made of stones
I'm ready to bleed to make amends
And sleep in this dirt we call our bed
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To fall and rewrite the bitter end
Eternally yours

The music ended and Chris picks me up and spins me around and we had a shared laughter . I even see Riley side stage with her jaw dropped and was applauding me.

This all felt so surreal....

I never want this moment to end ...
