I wiped my smudged raccoon makeup off my face and began to reapply it.

Ricky had complimented me so many times about how fast my guitar solos where and how good I screamed.It gave me butterflies.

I finished with my makeup and was happily satisfied with the two dark circles of eye shadow around my eyes and the creepy stiches coming off of the left side of my mouth.Extra creepy today.

I buckled my demonias and walked out of the gas station bathroom.One of those perks of being on tour is getting dressed in an odd assortment of places.

45 more miles to the nect venue of Oklahoma City.I've never played in Oklahoma before.

I ran out to the van and hoped in the passengers seat no wanting to be left behind.Because I have been left behind before,sadly.

The cars on the interstate beside the gas station zoomed by on the chilly Friday morning.

Motionless and Annisokay was suppose to meet us at the gas station to discuss our route to the venue.

Hunter knocked on the window and mouthed for me to get out.I got out and immediately I was picked up and thrown over his shoulder.

"What are you doing?",I screamed into his ear.

He chuckled and answered."Going to have a little fun.".

He started spinning me around which wasn't fun.All the blood rushed to my head and it made the spinning much worse.

After a while he sat me down and tool my phone.

"Come and get it.",he joked before running off to a ditch.

I groaned and took one step forward and then fell on my ass.What the fuck kinda person does this?

"Issues?",someone questioned.

I looked up and it took my eyes a moment to focus.

"Vinny!",I screeched shooting up and falling right back down.I really need to stop doing that.

He looked around and back down at me."Wheres the rest of the band."

I pouted my lips and crossed my arms."I don't know.They spun me around and ran off with my phone."

He smiled and helped me up."C'mon I know where they are.They just played a cruel joke on you."

I laughed and followed him to this large oak tree.

Up in the branches were 9 idiots.

"Why'd you do that to me?I looked like a complete idiot.",I whined looking up at my 6 foot 8 inches tall lead singer.

He got this big grin on his face."I just wanted to mess with you."

"Well next time find a better way.",I scoffed before turning and leaving.I regretted that because he still and my phone.

.....

At the venue Annisokay and The Everlasting Affect sat around talking and eating.Motionless would arrive shortly.

My phone started ringing.Ughh.Its Kuza.

"Hello stupid.",I answered.

"Friends don't call each other stupid.",he said.

I laughed."I call Drake stupid all the time."

He laughed for the first time in a long time."Well I just called to congratulate you on the album and to say that I'm excited for the video drop tonight."

"No prob and thanks."

"Welcome.Goodbye Savannah and have a great show tonight."

"Same to you.",I said before ending our short phone call.

Motionless entered the room and scattered around like ants.Ricky smiled at me and worked his way over to sit by me on the leather couch.

"How was the drive?",I asked.

"Okay.I slept most of the way up.",he stopped and laughed.I guess something funny must have happened."Someone told me it was your birthday next week."

My head shook up and down eagerly."Yep.I'll be 23!"

Someone from presumably my band started screaming "Stella!",like from that one play.

The room erupted in laughter. I looked over and saw a red faced Joe.His black fringe covered his green eyes as he laughted.Tears began to fall from his eyes were he was laughing so hard.

When the laughter died down I sat just staring down into my lap.Every now and then I would look up at Ricky.He was staring at the narks on my arms.

"This is a burn mark.",I said tracing around the red blotch on the bottom of my forearm." I use to go over to these two guys house.It was filthy and unhealthy to be in there but it was a place were I could shoot up some heroine.Well one day they'd been talking about what it'd be like to set someone on fire.Like if they'd die of what not.I was I'm the attic and had just shot up when they came in.One of them held me down and poured some lighter fluid on my arm and then threw a match down on me.This is what I have to remind me of that."

*Ricky's POV*

Tears began to fall from her eyes.She flipped her down to cover half her face so the other boys couldn't see them.

"And these,these are why they call me suicide.",she ran her index finger along a small,white line that ran vertically down her arm.She'd tried to end it all,just like I had done but she's here just like me.

Her tears streamed furiously. Up she went and out the door.

Some of the boys noticed.

"What happened with her.",Vinny asked.

"I stare to much.",I quickly answered scolding myself."Don't worry though I'll deal with it."

I made my way out of the room,down the two flights of stairs and out the exit door.

The smell of smoke invaded my nose and I breathed in the glorious smell.It was from her and I knew it.

Around the corner of the building she was sitting pressed up against the wall with a smoke in one hand and her phone in the other.

I slid down the wall beside her."I'm sorry I shouldn't have been staring."

She shook her head and took a long drag."I've been thinking way to much about future and past things.That just made me want to snap.Your just the first person who gave me the slightest chance."

Her phone was playing a video and it perplexed me as to what she was watching.

"Its a video of my grandma and me.One of my favorite ones.",she smiled.

"Can I watch it with you?"

"Sure."
