(ON HOLD) Drink The Night Away │ j.d

one

BEEP. BEEP. BEEP.

Eh.
Another day. Another night without sleep. Great.
I turn over to check the time on my alarm clock. 4:00 am, why does it have to be this early. I sit up on the side of my nice, cozy bed as I admire it before I have to get up and load up the bus to start traveling for the tour. Yes, my brother Brendon is going on tour and he doesn't want to leave me alone in the house while he is going over the summer. I've been living with Brendon every since our parents kicked us out of their house cause of our beliefs. Yep, you guessed it, Brendon and I are both atheist. You could say our parents are quite religious.

I hope out of bed and head over to my mirror. My dark circles seem to get worse and worse everything, just perfect. I head into my walk in closet and grab some burgundy tights and a sweatshirt with my vans. I head over to my desk to sit down and do my hair. I just put my long brown hair into a ponytail and then put that into a messy bun. I grab my backpack and suitcases and head down the tall white hallway down our twisty stairs. I am greeted by Brendon and his band mates when I get to the bottom of the stairs.

"Well don't you look like a ray of sunshine." Says Brendon as he walks over to me and rubs my head.

"HEY! Don't mess up my hair. I got it perfect." I say in an irritated tone, can you blame me for only getting a few hours of sleep cause of my shitty insomnia?

"Ok well let's head out to bus and get this show on the road!" Says Brendon while clapping his hands.

I step onto the quite impressive tour bus and walk back to the resting area and sit my backpack in my bunk. I took the top bunk because I can ignore people better up there. Let's just hope the bus doesn't take a sharp turn. Cause that would hurt.

I climb up into my bunk and slip in my ear buds and turn on my music. My eyes got heavier and heavier. As I fall asleep I am extremely relieved to get some sleep. And then everything goes black.

As I come to I heard people walking and saying stuff that sounds like bluff to me considering I'm still half asleep, in the time I was asleep my music turned itself off so I took out my ear buds and peeked out to see everyone sitting in the living area getting ready to get off the bus.

We were in our first stop. Dallas, TX. I get out of my bunk and go into the living room to see what everyone was doing. As soon as I entered the room the smell of coffee it me and oh it smelled so good. So without a word being said I headed over to the coffee machine and made a nice cup. As I turn around everyone is looking at me and smiling.

"What?" I say in a tired tone.

"How was your nap" Dallon asked me.

"Ugh." I say as return to the bunk area and close the door that separates the two areas. I put my coffee down on the corner and head into the bathroom to fix my horrific hair. And I decide to also redo my makeup while I'm at it with some Carmel color eye shadow in the cress of my eyelid and some winged eyeliner. And come back out of the bunk area to see that everyone has left me. I check the time. 3:47 pm. I'm guessing that they all headed to sound check and everything so I leave the bus and head into the venue.

As I was heading in I could see the long queue lined up outside of the venue for the concert at 7:00. Woah that's a lot of people. I quickly head into the area with the stage. Still no sign of the boys. Okay. I decide to head into the dressing room and there stuff is there. Hmm.

As I sit down on the couch I hear the door slam open. My heart skips a beat. As soon as I go to look who it was the lights were turned off. As I'm about to ask who it is the lights come back on and all I hear is "SURPRISE!".

At the moment I realize they are holding a birthday cake. It says "Happy Birthday Mac!". Yep, I was turning 21 today and I honestly could care less but I guess Brendon wanted to make a deal out of it.

"Thanks guys!" I say not wanting to be rude considering they actually cared about my birthday.

"Tonight since you're legal to drink. I am taking you out on a party roadshow with the band and some of my other friends!" Said Brendon with an extremely excited tone in his voice.

I honestly wasn't in the mood to go out partying tonight but I've been down recently so it's better then staying inside the tour bus.

After the show, we headed downtown to some bar that was way more crowded then it should be. As me not being in the mood I left Brendon and his band and friends to go to the bar. I wasn't in the mood to hang out with Brendon and these two other bands called fall out boy and twenty one pilots.

As I get over to the bar I decide to go for something strong so I got two shots of vodka. As the night slowly goes by I can feel myself slowly slipping away into the void of alcohol. But every time Brendon checked on me he was already wasted out of his mind. So I guess I don't have anyone to keep me from doing anything stupid.

For some reason at that moment my mind thinks it would be a good idea to go dancing. As drunk as I am I don't really care about myself as I'm out on the floor dancing with drunk guys who I have no idea who they are but one got a little to touchy feely and as I push away from him I feel myself trip back and I'm caught by someone. As I turned around looking at the ground I apologize immediately.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry there was this guy all over me and I was trying to get away from him.." I say surprised I didn't stutter.

"Oh it's okay, I saw you a few times. That guy didn't seem right." I hear someone say in a raspy tone. As I look up I see a boy with messy hair with red on the top and brown on the sides.

Even though I'm wasted I can still notice who this boy was.

"Aren't you Josh from twenty one pilots?" I ask in a shy tone.

"Yeah, and you are.." Josh starts to trail off before I interrupt him.

"I'm Mac, Brendon's sister."
