Blue Dreams (Larina)

Chapter 59

Marina's POV:

I closed my eyes and sat on the couch in my dressing room. My opener, Tove, had just finished her set, leaving 15 minutes til I went on. Lizzy went out for a few minutes, she promised to be back before I went on. The band was about to go out and reset their instruments. All that was left was me and my thoughts.

Each part of the show ran through my head as I sighed. For some reason, being alone with my thoughts was making me anxious. I've done this show many times, why am I worried now? I took a few deep breaths and heard my phone ding.

Lizzy <3: I'm sorry, baby, I won't be back to see you before you go on. I'll be in the crowd, though. Also, there is a letter in my bag for you. I love you❤️

I smiled looking at her text. I wish she could get back to hug me before going on, but I understand. What is she even doing out there? She didn't tell me what she was getting before leaving.

Me: ok, love. I'll be looking for you in the crowd. Be careful! I love you more.

I started to worry more about her. Why wouldn't she get back in time? Where was she? I know she has her security, but I still don't like her going around a city alone.

Me: Where are you? Is your security with you?

Lizzy <3: I ran out to the store. The line is too fuckin long. I'm safe, don't worry, Mar.

Me: please, please, please be careful.

Lizzy: I will be, baby. Don't worry. Make sure ur ready for ur show. Also, read the letter!

Her fast responses calmed me a bit. I took another deep breath, got up, and grabbed the letter. It was labelled Mar with a heart next to it. I ran back to the couch and quickly opened it.

Mi Princessa,

As you go on to the stage tonight, remember to let your smile shine brighter than every light in the room and your eyes sparkle more than the stars. I'll be in the audience cheering you on, singing every lyric, and dancing along. Don't get too distracted. I can't wait to have you run into my arms after your show.

Before we leave tomorrow, I have a girl's day planned. We will get our nails done, have breakfast, and shop. Kasha, Dani, and Kayla are coming, too! Start thinking of nail art ideas, and don't forget to cut two nails short.

I love you, baby. Have the time of your life on stage tonight. I can't wait to sing Superstar tonight.

All my love,
Lizzy

I laughed at her little jokes, rolled my eyes at her telling me not to get distracted, and smiled at the planned girl's day. Since she wants me to get bowling nails, I must have done something right last night.

Under the note were little drawings. I felt a tear form in my eye as I looked at Lizzy's drawing of Betsy and Bart. Then, I saw her stick figures of me and her holding hands. After reading the note, I grabbed my phone and went to text her.

Me: I LOVE YOUR DRAWINGS

Lizzy <3: I think Phoenix could have done the same if not better.

I laughed at her.

Me: Well, they made me cry so I love them.

Me: I'm framing them when I get home.

Lizzy: No, bitch.

Me: Watch me, bitch.

I smiled at our sassy little exchange. That was always one of my favourite things about Lizzy: she always speaks her mind. She makes me so happy.
