What I Really Want To Say

I Like You.

Driving along the service road i noticed Travis' truck parked by the cemetary. I decided to pull in on the next block over and walk in the woods over to where he was. I noticed him sitting down by the head of a gravestone, just staring. I stood behind the closest tree to the edge of the cemetary. I could faintly hear Travis talking to himself. 

"Hey Eva. I haven't talked to you in a while huh? Yeah.. I miss you Eva. I really do. I know this is stupid, talking to a gravestone, but it seems like its the only way i can ever talk to you again. I still call your voicemail everynight. You don't know what i would give to hear your voice again. But Eva, i have good news for you. Im getting better. I haven't had the urge to cut in a while. Thats good right? Its all because of Megan. She makes me better Eva." I saw Travis smile and look back down. "I think i really like her. I mean, i knew it from the first time I saw her. I tried to hide it cause she had a boyfriend at the time, but he was a total douche, and they're not even together anymore thankfully. I even wrote her a song. She hasn't heard the whole thing yet. Im saving it for the right time. She's bound to love it though, it took me a month to figure out exactly what to say."

Wait... Travis likes me? I was a little confused by the whole situation but i pushed it out of my head when i saw Travis stand up to leave. I quickly ran back through the forest to my car, and sped off back to my house. Maybe i shouldn't have listened in? Im gonna have a guilty conscience forever now. Great. 

I looked over to my phone on the island counter to find it ringing. It was from Deb.

"Hows my little rockstar doin'?!"

"Haha. I'm all good Deb. How are you?"

"Pumpin! But i have some good news for you girlie!!"

"Spill."

"Are you ready for your first concert?"

"I've already had my first-"

"AS A CO-HEADLINER!?" Deb interrupted.

"Are you serious?! Thats amazing!! Who am i co-headlining with?" 

"Drumroll please!! We The Kings!"

"I love you so much Deb! Who else is on?"

"Well, You and WTK are the main act, and you'll have a couple opening bands."

"Which are..?"

"All Time Low, Varsity Fanclub, and The Summer Set."

"Why VFC? I mean the rest are bands, and then theres me with my crew, but VFC doesn't even play their own music."

"Megan.. They're on your label. This is all about publicity. I know you may not like them much after what has happened, but please tolerate them for this one night."

"Deb you underestimate me. I love them. I just hate Drew."

I heard Deb sigh on the other line. "That works i guess. Just don't start anything."

"Fine. Whens the concert? I haven't hung out with Jess in forever. We need time away from the dudes. Haha."

"Tickets were sold last month, and you're the last one notified chickadee. Its two days from now." 

"TWO DAYS DEB?!"

"Sorry bud. You won't answer your phone.. But you'll sing a total of 6 songs. WTK will have the same. ATL, TSS, and VFC will all play 3."

"Any covers or no?"

"Go ahead, but no more than 3. We'll pull 3 songs from the new album, im thinkin' This Little Girl, We're The Shit, and Go Screw Yourself."
