"Don't do anything stupid." My dad said quietly to me. He was pushing me towards his car. I was sobbing with fear right now. Julia didn't know what to do. She wanted to help me, but she thought that if she called the police it would make things harder for me.
"DARCY!"I heard someone calling my name. I looked around and saw Patrick and Pete coming towards us. I felt relieved.
"What can I help you with, gentlemen?" My father asked.
"We need a word with Darcy." Pete said.
"Ok."
"In private." Patrick added, looking at me. Julia came and joined them both.
"Whatever you have to say to my daughter, you can say to me."
"Ok then." Pete began, "Darcy, we have a job offer for you. We would like you to be a runner. Like an intern for the band."
"When?"I asked.
"Immediately if possible." Pateick said, winking at me.
"Yes, please." I nodded.
"Now hang on a minute, I don't think this is a good idea. You will be mixing with all sorts of people. Men in particular." My dad said.
"So?" I shrugged." I am 18 now. An adult. It's my decision, and I say I would be delighted to accept the job offer." I smiled. Julia was jumping up and down.
"Oh, this offer is for both of you." Pete admonished. Julia and I jumped up and down, screaming. Brendon arrived, too.
"Oh, the job offer?" He chuckled to Pete.
"Yea." Pete laughed.
"We need to go get our stuff!' I said to the guys.
"Can I come with?" Brendon asked.
"Sure." I replied, and we got into my car. Julia was shotgun, and Brendon was in the back. I blasted some Fall Out Boy as we left the parking lot. My dad just stood staring after us, his mouth wide open.

We arrived at my house first. My mom and brother were home. All three of us entered my house. I said hello to my family. Jeremy couldn't believe that Brendon Urie was in our house. I explained everything to my mother, and she understood. She even helped me pack whilst Brendon and Julia hung out with Jeremy downstairs.
"I will miss you, Darcy, but this is for the best. You need to get away from that asshole." Mom said. I hugged her, and we packed up what I would need.
20 minutes later, I said my goodbyes, and we left for Julia's, just as Dad was pulling up.
Julia packed quickly. She said goodbye to her family, and we drove back to the venue. I parked my car in the employees lot. We got our stuff and headed to FOBs tour bus.
"Good, you are both here." Patrick said as we boarded. "Ok, so we will let you both get settled and explain everything. Alright?" We both nodded.
"Oh, one of you is with Panic!" Joe said. Julia and I did rock paper scissors. I won, so I chose to go onto Panics bus. Brendon escorted me to their bus. I boarded and was greeted by everyone.
"Where am I sleeping?" I asked.
"This sofa turns into a bed. We would offer you a bunk, but thru are all taken." Nicole explained.
"That's cool." Nicole helped me to transform the sofa into a bed. We found extra pillows and a comforter. I found some pjs and my toothbrush. I went into the bathroom and got ready for bed.
I crawled into bed. All of a sudden, I was exhausted. The band was sat at the table now, playing cards. I read a few pages of my book and then laid down.
Everyone else headed to their bunks. I sighed, listening to the quiet. When I thought people were asleep, I cried softly. I let it all out. The concert excitement, meeting my idols and getting away from my father. The fact that I was going to miss Jeremy and my mother. I needed to run away, though. Runaway from my awful father. I sniffed and cried a little more. That's when I felt someone get onto the sofa bed. I turned around, and it was Brendon. He asked if he could cuddle me, and I said yes. He comforted me. He held me and stroked my hair as I quietly carried on crying.
"Thank you, Brendon." I said as my tears stopped. "I thought that everyone was asleep."
"I was, but I needed to pee, and I heard you, Darcy." Brendon explained.
"Oh." I put my head down. Brendon cupped my cheeks and lifted my head to look at him.
"You have nothing to be ashamed of Darcy. You have had some emotional things happen over the last few hours." Brendon dropped his hands from my face. I nodded and kissed Brendons cheek.
"Thank you." I said smiling. Brendon blushed a little bit. We then talked for a couple of hours, and then we both fell asleep.
As I lay there, I couldn't believe how things had panned out. I escaped my abusive father and got a summer job working for 2 of my favourite bands. Not to mention, I was doing it with my best friend. I smiled and turned over as an arm came over my waist and pulled me towards him.
