Save Our Heavy Dirty Souls

Chapter 9~ Without you I'm broken.

~Akira's P.Ø.V~
Everything was okay at first, despite my first tantrum, especially with Tyler's hoodie, everything was fine, I had gone through rehearsal for an upcoming show at least twice and I was fine but then slowly it started getting worse. I would see him in my dreams, and in nightmares more frequently, every song I heard was by twenty one pilots and everything anyone said reminded me of Tyler and his perfection. It sent me into a spiraling hole of depression that began to affect my performing. That's not a good thing with an upcoming show but no matter what I try I get distracted by something that reminds me of Tyler or I can't stop thinking of him enough to focus. The hoodie helps a little, it reminds me of Tyler's hugs, it smells so much like him, no matter how much you wash it. A small knock echoes through my dark room. "Akira...? You feeling up to practice today?" Domo asks, cracking the door open, not enough to let any light in. "I don't know." My voice is flat, I don't even recognize my own voice. A look of pain flashes in Domo's eyes, "We have a show tomorrow. Four songs." Domo says. I look at her, "The songs are You're so Creepy by Ghost Town, Miss Jackson by Panic!, Mama by MCR and.... Car Radio..." I turn on my side away from the door. "Cancel the show." I say. "What?! We can't cancel Akira, listen to yourself, These were the songs requested we accepted the job, we have to play the songs. We can't just stop because you're heartbroken and having a tantrum every three minutes." There's a deadly silence, I know she takes the work seriously but she knows how serious I can get. "Get out." I say. "Look, Akira, Im sorry, I didn't mean-" "Just get out!" I snap. Domo sighs and leaves, closing the door. I pull my blankets over me and I stay quiet. "What if we take you to Hot Topic after the show?" I hear Josh's voice on the other side of the door. I slowly roll on my other side so I'm facing the door. "And then Taco Bell." I get up, groaning quietly as I grab the neck of my guitar and I pull open the door. "Fine. But only because Taco Bell is involved." Josh chuckles, Domo standing behind him. We go downstairs to where we practice and I plug my guitar into my amp and Josh sits down to watch Domo and I as Domo takes her seat behind her drums.
~After Rehearsal~

~Domo's P.O.V~

"That was a really great rehearsal, Akira. You did alot better today.!" I say with my mouth full of Dorito locos taco. "Thanks, I guess" I heard her mumble. I look at josh. "should we tell her?" I mouthed to him. "Let it be a surprise!" He mouthed back. "Akira, we have a surprise for you. But you have to perform tomorrow to get the surprise." I say. "Why?" She asks dully. "Because, I need you tomorrow night. You know I cant sing!" I pleaded, " You're such a damn liar, you can sing beautifully." Akira said sarcasm and truthfulness evident in her voice. After we finished up, we walked out to the car. "Can I drive?" "NO" josh and Akira said simultaneously. Man. I wanted to drive. We arrive home and josh drops us off. Akira goes inside while I stay in the car. "Hey josh? Can I tell you something?" I said shyly. I could tell by the hotness to my cheeks I was blushing already. "Sure, anything" he said cooly. It sent shivers and Goosebumps throughout my body. "I-I really.. Uhm...uh.. Ireallylikeyoualotandijustwantedtoletyouknowokay?" I said fastly. Josh starts blushing. I open the car door to get out but as soon as I step out I'm yanked back in. But this time I was surprised. Josh was kissing me. And I kissed back. It was short and sweet and gentle. "Goodnight Joshie."I said blushing. "Goodnight love." He said. I got inside and went to check on Akira. She was sleeping with Tylers jacket on.. If only she knew about the surprise.I headed to bed myself, changed, and tucked myself in. I slowly drifted to sleep till everything went black.

~CONCERT TIMEEEE!~

Akira and I were setting everything up for the concert. I got my drums, she has her mic. After we set up, Akira prepares for the first song. When concert time comes, we walk out to hear screaming fans. "Hello guys! As you know, We are True Poisons Desire! How many snakes do we have in the house tonight?!" Akira screams trying to hype up the crowd. A couple people raised their hands. I giggle and I guess it came out on my back vocals mic because I heard, "awe" come from someone in the crowd. We start off with our first song, You're so creepy by ghost town.
