-----------------------------------------------------------

I woke up earlier than everyone else. I went to my suitcase and grabbed an outfit and my hair brush.

I brushed out my hair and looked at it. The blue was fading a bit, but I wouldn't be able to dye it for a while. I didn't bring my hair straightener, so my hair was wavy. I styled it and went to the bathroom and changed into a Sleeping With Sirens tank top, black skinny jeans, red converse, and put on a red beanie and some band bracelets.

I walked out of the bathroom and saw Jordan sitting on the couch.

"Hey." He said.

"Hi." I said and smiled at him.

I sat down on the couch and saw Jordan staring at me. I was staring back when Johnnie and Kyle woke up. Johnnie sat next to me and wrapped his arm around me. Jordan pulled out his phone and started playing games.

We got to the first location we were going to be stopping and got off the bus.

"Who do you want to see preform?" Johnnie asked me.

"I want to see Sleeping With Sirens" I said squealing.

"Okay, let's go and find where their going to preform then." He said as he laughed at me fangirling.

"Okay." I said while grinning like an idiot.

We found where they were preforming and sang along to the songs they sang. I walked over to where they were selling their merchandise. I bought a sweatshirt, and a couple of tank tops and wrist bands.

Johnnie said he had to go to where MDE was greeting fans. I walked to the bus and went in and sat on the couch. I was going to have to wait untill 2:30 pm to see another band play.

I decided to text my brother. He was worried about me and I told him I was fine.

It was 2:15 so I started walking to where Of Mice & Men was playing. I saw Jordan flirting with a girl. I mentally sighed and faced my attention to OM&M.

I felt an arm around me and looked up to see Johnnie.

"Oh, hey Johnnie." I said with a small smile.

"Hey Jess.." He said with a smile back.

I told Johnnie I was going back to the bus to listen to music. I walked to the bus and pulled out my phone, putting on The Balled Of Mona Lisa by Panic! At the Disco.

Lyrics

She paints her fingers with a close precision
He starts to notice empty bottles of gin
And takes a moment to assess the sin
She's paid for

A lonely speaker in a conversation
Her words are swimming through his ears again
There's nothing wrong with just a taste of what you've paid for

Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe

Woah, Mona Lisa,
You're guaranteed to run this town
Woah, Mona Lisa,
I'd pay to see you frown

He senses something, call it desperation
Another dollar, another day
And if she had the proper words to say,
She would tell him
But she'd have nothing left to sell him

Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe

Woah, Mona Lisa,
You're guaranteed to run this town
Woah, Mona Lisa,
I'd pay to see you frown

Mona Lisa, yeah
Pleased to please you
Mona Lisa

Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe

Woah, Mona Lisa,
You're guaranteed to run this town
Woah, Mona Lisa,
I'd pay to see you frown

Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe

There's nothing wrong with just a taste of what you've paid for

"Wow, your a good singer Jessie." A voice said.

I looked over and saw it was Kyle.

"Thanks Kyle." I said while smiling. No one usually compliments me.

"Can I show you my favorite song?" He asked me.

"Sure." I answered.

Better Off Dead by Sleeping with Sirens

She says she wants to end it all when she's all alone in her room
She cries
The way she feels inside is too much for her
When all you got is these four walls
It's not that hard to feel so small
Or even exist at all
How come no one heard her when she said

Maybe I'm better off dead
If I was would it finally be enough
To shut out all those voices in my head?
Maybe I'm better off dead
Better off dead!
Did you hear a word
Hear a word I said?
This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone
Gone, gone
This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone

She doesn't know she's beautiful
Because no one's ever told her so
And the demons that she hides are all she knows
And maybe she can fall in love with someone in her life that she could trust
And tell her she's enough (Have someone tell her she's enough?)
How come no one heard her when she said

Maybe I'm better off dead
If I was would it finally be enough
To shut out all those voices in my head?
Maybe I'm better off dead
Better off dead!
Did you hear a word
Hear a word I said?

This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone
Gone, gone
This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone

When all you got is these four walls
It's not hard to feel so small
When all you got is these four walls
It's not hard to feel so small
All she wanted was to be enough
All she wanted was to be enough
So what does it take?
Maybe it's not too late
Yeah no one heard her when she said

Maybe I'm better off dead
If I was would it finally be enough
To shut out all those voices in my head?
Maybe I'm better off dead
Better off dead!
Did you hear a word
Hear a word I said?
This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone
Gone, gone
This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone
Gone, gone
This is not where I belong
You gonna miss me when I'm gone

"Better off dead by sleeping with sirens?" I asked him, trying to guess the song.

"Yeah, I really like it." He said while blushing and awkwardly rubbing the nape of his neck.

"I do too." I said with a smile.
