Da Ding (Ben Bruce)

She takes a moment to stumble to her feet

BETH’S POV

All I could see was the flashing of the lights, all I could hear was the loud music, it was thudding, hurting my head. The music I used to love was now making me want to just fall to the floor with my hands over my ears. I couldn’t get out I was surrounded by people all pushing, shouting, and jumping up and down to the music. Then it was black …

I could hear people talking; I recognised their voices but not very well. I started to open my eyes, it was blurry at first. Someone leaned over me, things were still blurry he had short messy hair and a bluish coloured tattoo on his chest I was looking at his eyes trying to make out who it was, and they were greeny blue. IT WAS BEN. My eyes focused, I knew it was him it all happened so quickly. Ben Bruce was sat next to me on a chair leaning over me making sure I was ok. I was in a room with Asking Alexandria! How did they even know who I was? How did I get here? What happened? So many questions I wanted to ask but all I could do was sit there a stare into Ben’s deep green eyes. It was like I was seeing his whole life before my eyes through his.

‘Are you ok?’ Ben said sounding worried.

I tried to talk but just stuttered I couldn’t say a word. He chuckled, it was so cute. He sat me up and passed me a glass of water. I managed to ask him a question

‘What happened??’

‘You collapsed.’ James said before Ben could even get a word in. I looked around the whole band was there Danny, James, Cameron, Sam, and Ben. A massive smile ran across my face.

‘I take it you’re a fan?’ Cameron asked

‘No of course not I hate you all I don’t even know why I’m here.’ I said with sarcasm in my voice.

BEN’S POV

A felt a massive weight come upon on my shoulder when she said ‘Really?’ I asked. Danny just laughed

‘She’s being sarcastic you retard’

‘Oh’ I replied, making myself look like such a twat in front of her. I had been watching her all night, from the stage.

*Flash Back* She’s so pretty, she had been drinking a lot, more than I normally did, and I was beginning to worry about her. When we came off stage for a break, Danny knew straight away who I was getting so distracted by. We came back on stage she was over by the bar drinking again, Danny just looked at me and came over and said

‘Calm down she’ll be fine.’ We started to play, she came running over she looked very drunk, she could barely walk. I looked away for 2 minutes and she was falling to the floor. I jumped off the stage half way through our song to her the boys were shouting at me

‘BEN WHAT ARE YOU DOING? GET BACK HERE!’ I turned around and looked at them I couldn’t I had to go to her. I picked her up and took her to my changing room. They all followed. *Back to Present*

I had completely zoned out. She was talking to Danny, she was laughing and he was flirting with her. I don’t know what came over me but the next thing I knew I had punched Danny.
