Beep Beep Beep
I run to the oven when I hear the alarm go off. My pizza rolls are finally done. I have been waiting for 10 minutes. I thought my stomach was going to explode if I didn't feed it quickly.
I grab my pizza rolls and my phone and head over to my couch. I put on Grey's Anatomy. I just started watching the show about two weeks ago and I am already on season 5, episode 2. My best friend got me addicted to it. I told her I was never going to watch it because I HATE needles. But I love this show.
My phone buzzes notifying me I got a text.
From Sammy: READY TO GO TO 5SOS?!?!?!?!?!
To Sammy: SHOOT ME PLEASE
From Sammy: shut up you don't hate them. Just please try to enjoy yourself tonight. I want to have a good time
To Sammy: I'll try :/
My best friend Sammy, the same best friend who got me addicted to Grey's Anatomy, got two tickets and back stage passes to see 5sos. She decided to take me, because she has no other friends. Neither do I.
It's not like I hate 5sos, there songs aren't bad, it's just not the type of music I listen to.
The concert is at 7:00. It is 5:30 right now, and it takes about 45 minutes to get there. I should start getting ready now.
***
It is 6:00 and I am completely ready. I straightened my brown/black hair. I am wearing a fancy white, lace romper with gold, strappy heels. To be honest I think I look hot.
I go downstairs to wait for Sammy to get here but as I make my way downstairs I notice Sammy is already here chowing down on some cereal.
"Why do I always find you in my house eating cereal?" I ask.
"Don't act like it's such a big deal. I always find you at my house in random places sleeping. Now come on. We're going to be late!"
"Ok, ok. Hold your horses. Outfit check?" I do a little spin and wait for her response.
"You look great! What about me?" She does the same little turn I did. She is wearing a bright pink crop top with a matching skirt, and gold heels. She always looks so pretty.
"Fire!" I tell her.
In the car we listen to all my favorite songs before i am forced to listen to hers at the concert. This car ride pretty much has me like:
"My mama don't like you and she likes everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
And I've been so caught up in my job,
Didn't see what's going on
But now I know,
I'm better sleeping on my own"
"So you can keep me
Inside the pocket
Of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer
'Til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
Wait for me to come home"
"Your sugar
Yes, please
Won't you come and put it down on me?
I'm right here, 'cause I need
Little love, a little sympathy
Yeah, you show me good loving
Make it alright
Need a little sweetness in my life
Your sugar
Yes, please
Won't you come and put it down on me?"

We are now in our seats for the concert. Third row seats!
"Are you excited? BECAUSE I AM!!" Sammy screams in my ears.
"I actually am getting excited. I love being at concerts. This is the closest I have ever been to the stage before! I'm not excited about the music selection but I guess I will deal with it." I say.
"No, remember we were in the second row with your mom that one time we went to go see the wiggles." She laughs as she says this.
My mom.
My mom left my family when I was thirteen years old, I am eighteen right now. I am a senior in high school.
When my mom left and never came back, it was really hard on me but mostly my dad. He struggled to get up every morning for about two months. Then one day he woke up and was happy. My dad has been trying so hard to be the best dad he could, but it's kind of hard to raise a daughter and a son all on his own. Especially me because he didn't know much about teenage girls. He has gotten the hang of it though.
"I'm sorry. I did not mean to bring up your mom." Sammy says. "You're upset now I'm sorry." She can always tell when I am upset.
"It's okay Sam. That was a long time ago."
"You sure?"
"Yes." I reassure her.
All of a sudden the lights get dark and we hear "Are you ready for your favorite..... 5 Seconds of Summer!!!!!"
Everyone in the crowd starts cheering. Four really attractive guys come out on stage and start singing some song I don't know. The tall blonde is the most attractive.... Wow.
"Sammy... Why are there only four guys?" I scream over the loud music so she can hear me.
"What are you talking about? There are only four guys in the band." She answers.
"Then why is it FIVE seconds of summer?" I ask truthfully.
"You make me want to kill myself. Now shut up!"
***
After the concert is over we head back to the VIP lounge and the first thing that catches my eye are the chocolate brownies! I run over to them and shove my mouth full with them. All the girls start starring at me with disgusted looks on there face. I walk back over to Sammy. "They just wish they were as cool as me." I tell her pointing to all the girls who are still looking at me.
"Ya sure. And by the way, you have brownie in your teeth."
I lick my teeth. "Am I good now?" Sammy nods her head.
Out of nowhere Sammy runs away and I hear the loudest screams I have ever heard in my life. I cover my ears and turn to face the screaming girls, Sammy being one of them. The four boys just walked in the room and are practically being raped by these girls. They're all trying to touch them.
I go back over to the food and start eating the chocolate covered strawberries.
"Girls girls calm down. We are normal people just like you. Everyone please take a seat and we will be around to talk to all of you." A guy with curly hair says.
I decide to go use the bathroom. I ask one of the security guards where it is at. It is through double doors, down a long hallway, and into another door. It is a one person bathroom so I have some privacy to fix my makeup and hair.
When I am done, I open the door but I end up hitting something... Or someone.
------------------------------
I hope you all enjoy this story.
By the way, I LOVE FIVE SECONDS OF SUMMER!!!
And about the whole back stage thing... I have never been backstage of a concert so I don't really know what goes on. I am kinda just making it up on what I want to happen in the story, not based off of what really happens back stage.
Also, this is only the first chapter so it's a little slow at first just to let you get to know the characters and get the plot rolling. It will get better.
