To the Stage (Denis Stoff/Asking Alexandria fanfic)

Jealousy is the worst way to torture - Chapter 4

The hour finally passed. Very slowly... I was changed into my stage clothes and looked good. We made our way backstage to get ready to go on. The techs helped with our microphones and one by one beginning with Rey and then Dez, Steph, Jayce and then ending with me. I run onto the stage with all of my energy, grinning widely. I loved doing shows. It gave me a chance to be who I wanted, it showed the real me, and seeing all the fans having fun and singing back the lyrics was the best feeling ever. "Hello Everybody! We are Unholy Courtesy and this is one of our singles called 'I can't forget and I won't forgive'." I shout into the microphone and Rey begins the drumbeat, I then hear the bass and guitars come in and start singing the lyrics

Me : "You said you'd never leave
And that's the biggest lie you ever told
I wiped my memory clean
But you keep coming back to me

They say what hurts you
Only makes you stronger
But you broke my heart
And it's slowly killing me

Me and Jayce// Chorus

"I can't forget and I won't forgive
You ran away, when I tried to say goodbye
I feel betrayal and pain
You were the only light in my day
But our memories still linger in my head"

Me: "Don't. Don't come running back
There have been no words and no more lies
Just stay out and don't show up

I get on better without you
There is no one to hurt and surround me
Love is just a weakness
A trap you can't escape from

Chorus//

"I can't forget and I won't forgive
You ran away, when I tried to say goodbye
I feel betrayal and pain
You were the only light in my day
But our memories still linger in my head"

All that time it was love and happiness
But all that changed with one swift goodbye

"I can't forget and I won't forgive
You ran away, when I tried to say goodbye
I feel betrayal and pain
You were the only light in my day
But our memories still linger in my head

And I never wish to see you again!" I sing

"Thank you, thank you so much" I say through the microphone. Okay so maybe the song was about Denis, but it's one of the first ones I wrote after I had left and it said everything I was scared to say out loud.

DENIS'S POV

I don't know what came over me during the set. I thought I saw... But it couldn't have been. I decide to just throw it to the back of my head and forget it. Me and the guys were sitting in our bus, after our show and just relaxing.
"What was that fuck up during the set? You drove my new friend away and she had just gotten there" Ben says to me and ruffles my hair, making me groan "I don't know, I just.. I thought I saw someone I knew but it's impossible cause I haven't heard from her in ages, but who's your friend?" I ask and look at him.

"Her name is Kat and she's super fit" he answers, his signature cocky smirk on his face. "You have to meet her, she's amazing, and I only met her once" he says chuckling. "Yeah, that'd be great"  I answer, not properly focused on what he was saying. "Uhm I'm going to go walk about, want to join?" I ask him "yeah I need a fag anyways" he answers standing up and I follow him. We walk out and I hear that somebody was playing a show and start walking towards the stage that the sound was coming from. It sounded good, I listened closer, making out some lyrics.

"You ran away, when I tried to say goodbye
I feel betrayal and pain
You were the only light in my day
But our memories still linger in my head"

All I could think was 'wow, this person must be going through hell'. I turn the corner with Ben and then look onto the stage, spotting the one person that I thought I saw earlier and that had been my best friend through my childhood until she left. I take my eyes off of her, thoughts racing through my head. I look over at Ben who just starts grinning widely "what are you smiling at idiot?" I ask chuckling "Her, that's Kat" he says pointing over to Katya. Everything falls into place and I realise that he had called her fit, which kind of made my blood boil inside. I don't know why, but it wasn't like me, and I hadn't seen her in such a long time. She was more grown up now, and looked very differently, but good. Really good. I watched as she played, she looked like she was having the time of her life, I looked over to one of the guitarist, who was just looking at her perform, smiling to himself. It was kind of obvious that he liked her but again my blood started to boil. I couldn't stand it, I haven't had contact with her for so long, I'm sure she would have forgotten about me, so why did I care so much if someone liked her? Oh wait, before she left I had strong feelings for her. I loved her, but I never told her cause she was like a sister to me and I was scared that it would ruin our friendship, so the day she left, I had caused a very dramatic scene, which I hoped would have helped me to forget her, but it never did, I mean I moved on eventually but the feelings are still there, deep, deep down.

So they both finally know that they are on Warped. Oh and apparently Jayce has a thing for Kat too? Well this just got interesting. What do you thing Denis's next move is going to be, now that he knows that also Ben likes her, and that he still does too?

Also I'm going to start doing QOTD

QOTD: what is your favourite AA song?

Ps. The outfit is her stage outfit
