At the top is shays outfit and I will show you Calum's next chapter

Shay's POV

After saving Calum's ass I walked backstage to find the girls and there others lying around in the worn out vintage couches.
"get yo ass's up, and get them fine thangs on stage!" I yelled making my presence well known in the room. The boys laughed, taking the chance to look at the girls ass's.
"How much time do we have!" Bethany asked closing her DS. Yes she has a DS at age 17, it's really cute and it's obvious Michael loves her loving it.
"We have ten minutes so let's go and out our faces on" I say checking my phone for the time. We had already put make-up on before we left but after sound check and dancing to our opening acts we seemed to get a fare but sweaty. The girls quickly got up after hearing they only had ten minutes, Abby grabbing her drum sticks from Luke who had been aimlessly throwing them. I guess trying to be a drummer, but no one could control the drumstick (the actual stick not the food) like Abby.
"You guys better be dancing in the front row" Holly said adjusting Ashton's bandana.
"That's if they can get through all our fans" I chuckled as we left the room.

"Alright so we're have you been for the last hour or so Shay?" Holly interrogated me, her now make-up filled face getting closer to mine. She really was good at interrogating, always had been.
"I was studying, duh it's not like I was hanging out with Calum or anything" I said nervously. Normally I am the best liar, as my parents need to be lied to a lot but I couldn't lie to the girls, especially when Holly was interrogating me and talking about Calum made me nervous.

"yeah sure.." Bethany started, giving Abby a look, before I abruptly interrupted her.

"nope, shut up, lets go rock this stage!" I yelled running out of the room, and literally running away from my troubles. Placing the guitar strap around me I started tuning my matt black electric guitar, It was my baby/boyfriend. You would expect me to be nervous because there was an insane amount of people out there and even a record producer, but I wasn't. I think it's because I had the girls with me and at the end of the day music was what kept me going and as long as I had it I would be alright. Who knows I could write a song about us getting rejected.

"haha soon 5 seconds of summer will be opening for us!" Abby yelled sassily throwing her hands into the air "oh wait they already have!".

"ha fuck with ya boy" Holly yelled again as we were called onto stage. I really had to make that my ringtone. As we stepped onto the stage an overwhelming cheer came from the crowed that we couldn't see due to the stage lights.

"hello my beautiful people!" I yelled into the mike after plugging my guitar into the speaker. The crowed went wild, I tried to see who was in the front row because they seemed to be yelling crude things at us. "If you're nervous just picture me naked, alright babe!" I heard a familiar voice yell and planned on killing Calum later.

"alright tonight we have a rocking show for you guys and we are gonna start off with one of my favourites!" Bethany yelled into the mike "Monsters!". The crowed screamed louder and we looked at each other before Abby counted us in.

"one, two , one two three four!" she yelled slamming her sticks together and Holly began with her bass line.

I see your monsters, I see your pain.
Tell me your problems, I'll chase them away.
I'll be your lighthouse. I'll make it okay.
When I see your monsters I'll stand there so brave, and chase them all away.

A cup of coffee still steaming, staring back at me and it's blacker than the night, eh.
I'm awake but still sleeping, I keep telling myself I'll be alright (I won't).
And I know it can't get worse than today, sitting here and she's trying to rehearse what to say.
See, she's in the bathroom and hoping I'm not in earshot, while she's getting used to the sound of her teardrops.
Splash, it hits the towel and I know it's been awhile since you've seen me smile and laugh, like I used to.
I've been in denial since it happened, just take me to the past, cause I just can't imagine losing you, too.
I can't explain this so I keep it all inside, wear my pain but it's masked by my pride.
She came to hold me and she cried, told me this and she stared into my eyes and said...

At the end of the show we thanked the crowed and told them about our upcoming shows, but before we left the stage I had one more thing to do.

"I would just like to thank our opening act, 5 Seconds Of Summer, just in the front here, for being here to support us!" I said into the mike a honest and genuine look plastered to my face "they did such an amazing show opening for us on our tour, Rock Your Socks Off, Thank you!" I yelled once again and left the stage to come face to face with my gob smacked friends. Agh the boys were gonna be pissed especially Calum.
