Andy's P.O.V.

A waiter waltzed over to me casually, dressed smartly in black and white with his dark hair slicked back with more gel than I'd ever use. He cleaned over the table quickly giving me a forced smile as he collected the many whiskey bottles that were finished and left by my band mates who had rushed off to say goodbye to some friends. As for me, I stood, leaning against the deserted bar watching my newly adopted friends, Kellin Quinn, Jacky Vincent and Ronnie Radke approaching me, complimenting me on our set earlier on.

"I need to start taking some tips off you" Ronnie gushed, putting a smile on my face as my mind admired Jacky and Ronnie's matching Falling In Reverse jackets. That band had something that lots of bands had left in the 80's. The way they dressed, the way they did everything. It was just so Rock and Roll. 

"Okay, we'll make a deal then... We'll teach you our stage antics and you teach us how to dress as well as you guys do" I chuckled, pushing every negative thought out of my head as I messed with a rip in my favourite pair of jeans.

"Sorted" Jacky smiled as his shocking blue eyes glimmered in the bright lights that were fitted into the bar, gradually becoming less shy, "This doesn't come with Terms and Conditions, does it?" he joked, biting his lip with a quiet laugh.

"Well... You might break a few bones in the process" I admitted, tracing my fingers across my ribs lightly, reminding myself  vaguely of Warped Tour '11. 2011 just wasn't my year for somethings but it was for others. It got me where I am today. Playing to thousands of amazing kids every night, Meeting the most amazing girl. "Hey, you're English?" I questioned, only just picking up on Jacky's accent.

"Yeah" Jacky's eyes lit up slightly as if nobody really noticed him, which I could understand since he was usually painfully shy. I couldn't understand how he was such a good performer though, I thought you had to have an ego to perform as well as he did. Clearly not, I was learning so much in just a few days.

"It must be awesome coming from a country with such gorgeous girls" Ronnie declared with much enthusiasm as he straggled his fingers through his backcombed black hair, getting approval from Jacky and Kellin.

"Tell me about it" Agreed Kellin with his strong American twang, showing his perfect teeth as he smiled, "Natasha Valentine... Smokin' Hot" he chirped in no exaggeration.

Gradually, I felt a hot blush creeping across my face as I brought my eyes to focus on my cowboy boots. Just the thought of Natasha brought a smile to myself, and all the thoughts came crashing back into my already overly filled mind.

"Dude, don't hide it!" Kellin laughed, capturing my attention, "We know about you two" he sussed happily as Ronnie looked at the two of us in mere confusion.

"You and Natasha, huh?" he questioned, folding his arms across his almost bare chest casually, "Wow... What a lucky guy" he mumbled with a sincere smile plastered across his face.

I gave an uncertain nod but trying to drain my sorrows was harder than you could ever imagine. Its like when you feel like you have firm hold of something you love so much, then for some reason you feel like it's gone. I took another glimpse of the ground, trying to convince myself that she was still mine.

"Man, I don't know what's up, but I can tell something's bothering you" Jacky poited out as he leaned against the bar nervously, "Just remember that every guy at this festival dreamed that they would have a chance with Natasha, you only have to look at her to understand that, and you got her, you're so lucky" he smiled as he fixed the collar of his jacket, trying not to make any major eye contact after his deep statement.

"Duddddddeeeee, you're in touch with your feminine side" Kellin's voice cut through the brief silence as he teased Jacky.

"I can't help it" Jacky protested in surrender, throwing his hands up into the air, "I just know how women think" he admitted as casually as ever, for a moment, he seemed liked a totally different person.

"It's true what they say... It's the quiet ones you need to watch" I chuckled covering my move with my hand, truly happy that the subject had chanced. I was just missing Tash too much. However... Jacky was right. I was the luckiest guy ever.

 "Agreed" came a very distinctive and familiar voice from behind me, "Everyone knows what I'm up to, simply because I can't keep my mouth shut" Christian grinned, satisfied with his comment as he patted me on the shoulder with a friendly smile.

"Oh yeah CC we've heard all about you and your antics" Ronnie joked filling the air with his loud laugh as someone approached me, pulling me slowly away from the group.

I turned around with no clue as to who it could be, to find Danny clenching onto my arm looking unusually childlike. His big blue eyes were filled with what could have sworn was fear. His bottom lip quivered as it  trembled with no control. I gave him a brief moment to talk but when he tried to, only small gasps of air escaped from his usually overflowing and confident mouth.

"Is everything okay buddy?" I seemed to talk to him as if he was about 5 years old. Carefully, i guided him over to one of the discarded purple velvet chairs but even with my help, he still seemed to knock into chairs and stumble across the shiny granite floors. He was completely fragile and delirious. The complete opposite to how he normally acted and that was what worried me the most. For a moment, it was like I was stood helping a stranger.

"I'm just going to get you some water" I offered, attempting to slip away from Danny towards the bar which was only a few feet away from where he sat.

"Don't leave me" Danny pleaded in a sweat, trembling nervously as he grasped onto my arm once again. This made me panic so much. I didn't know what to do. I'd never dealt with a person that was completely insane. Ever. 

Not seeing any other option, I slapped Danny harshly across the side of his face, watching him blink furiously. I collapsed to the ground in relief as Danny's breath became a lot more calm and he seemed to be coming around.

I waited patiently for him to start speaking, as I looked up to him with curiousness in my eyes, "You'll never guess what just happened to me..." Danny murmured in his soft English accent, "I just got the weirdest, most disturbing phone call ever" he whispered almost in another daze as he explained every detail in full to me.

Normal P.O.V.

"C'mon Tash" Ryan called over to me in a sleepy tone, as my band mates made their way over to the gate to be let onto the plane finally.

"I'm trying" I assured, feeling suddenly panicky, "I can't find my phone, it's completely disappeared" I muttered in astonishment as I rooted through my back pack once again.

"It's probably at the bottom, where it always is" he reassured me with the warm smile that always seemed to convince me that everything was okay.

"Okay" I gave in, slumping my bag over my shoulder as I slipped behind Ryan and Tom, thinking over the nice sleep I was about to have. Out of nowhere, I felt a hand cover my mouth, pulling me backwards quickly. I didn't know what to think. Why now? Why here?
