Evan POV

Once Emily closed the door I walked back to my car.

I can't believe that I have been so mean to Emily for all these years. She lost her Aunt and Uncle. I wonder were her parents are. I should probably wait till she trusts me to ask. She knows about Mystery. How! Austin wouldn't of told her. I know him. I never knew that I took my anger out on her that much.

I sighed getting back in the car. I knew that I had to go to the club tonight. I drove home and walked inside. My mom was still at work and my dad doesn't live with us anymore. He just a jerk and he doesn't deserve my mother. I walked upstairs and went into my room. I grabbed a black shirt and a pair of jeans. I pulled out my phone and sat on my bed.

To: Austin
Hey I'm going to shakers tonight to see Mystery. U wanna come?

I few minutes later my phone buzzed.

From: Austin
Yep I'll meet you there at 7.

I looked at the time. 6:17. I got up and started downstairs. I grabbed an apple and walked out to my car. I drove over to shakers. I knew Mystery was on at 7:15. But I wanted to see if I could catch her with no mask on. It was worth a shot at least. I saw somebody pull in and I knew it was her.

Emily POV

Crap!

I parked at shakers and found Evan standing at the door. He was trying to figure out who I am. I grabbed my mask out of my bag and put it on. I got out and walked over to the door.

"Really?!? You wear your mask inside!" Evan exclaimed. I nodded and walked around him and went inside. "Come on Mystery!" He screamed as I closed my dressing room door. I opened my bag and took off my mask. I had a tight red long sleeved dress. I put on my Aunt's necklace. It was an angle holding a letter E. I curled my blonde hair and put on some light eye shadow. I put on my black wedges and a sparkly bracelet. Lastly I put on my mask. I walked out and over to James.

"Hey James," I said.

"Oh Em. I'm so sorry about your loss. If you need anything tell me."

"Thank you. I am doing pretty good with the money from this job." I smiled and hugged him. He was always like a second dad to me. "Ok well you are up. Good luck." I walked out on to the stage.

"Hey everybody. I hope you like this song." I said sitting down on the stool.

They would yell, they would scream, they were fighting it out
She would hope, she would pray, she was waiting it out
Holding onto a dream
While she watches these walls fall down
Sharp words like knives, they were cutting her down
Shattered glass like the past, it's a memory now
Holding onto a dream
While she watches these walls fall down

Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

Wrote it down on the walls, she was screaming it out
Made it clear, she's still here, are you listening now?
Just a ghost in the halls
Feeling empty, they're vacant now
All the battles, all the wars, all the times that you've fought
She's the scar, she's the bruises, she's the pain that you brought
There was life, there was love
Like a light and it's fading out

Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

You've gotta let it go, you're losing all your hope
Nothing left to hold, locked out in the cold
You painted memories then washed out all the scenes
I'm stuck in between a nightmare and lost dreams

Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
This broken home

I ended the song and the whole club clapped. I stood up and waved. I walked off and went back to my dressing room. Somebody knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" I said.

"Evan."

I put my mask on. "Come in."

Evan walked through the door. "You were really good tonight." He said. "You sing with a lot of meaning. I always wonder what goes on inside that head of yours."

"Lots of different things. Hurt and pain. I just lock it away and I sing." I explained.

He nodded and took my hand. He led me out and we went and sat in my booth. We sat down and he looked at me.

"I know that you tried to be nice to Emily," I said.

"I tried. I never knew that I hurt her that badly, I feel so stupid for doing all of that stuff. I never meant to make it that bad..."

Tears started to well up in my eyes. He looked into my eyes.

"Your eyes look familiar." He said studying them.

Crap. I forgot that he looked into my eyes today.

I turned my face away, but he touched my chin and pulled it back. He stared into my eyes. He started to lean in and out lips touched. We moved in sync and I put my arms around his neck. We pulled apart and I looked at him. I felt my cheeks heating up.

"I've gotta go," I said as a saw Austin looking at me from across the room. He nodded and I got up. I nodded at Austin and I walked to my dressing room. I heard a knock a few minutes later.

"Come in!" I screamed.

"Did you need me Em."

"Evan kisses me!!!!"

"WHAT?!?"

"What do I do Austin. Your his Best friend. Tell me what I should do."

"Um....well....he doesn't know it's you. So you should be fine a school."

"Shoot."

"What!"

"Today. When I was forced to ride home with him. He said that my eyes looked familiar."

"So. Your eyes could be similar to a bunch of people."

I sighed. "He said the same thing to Mystery. He is going to figure me out!"

"So what."

"He will figure out that he kissed a nerd."

"But then he will stop bullying you."

"I guess..."

He nodded and said bye. I packed all my things up and threw my bag in my car. I drove home and locked the doors. I walked up to my room and sat my stuff down. I got a shower and got dressed in some shorts and a tank top. Then a deep sleep took over me.

Hey. It me how did you like Evans POV. It's kinda hard trying to type his POV, but it's not terrible. Hopefully.
