In Your Dreams

Part 4

Ross was about to call after me but was cut off by Rocky, "Ross, heads up!" his brother shouted to him tossing him another guitar pick. He caught it then squinted at the crowd. Riker walked over to the edge of the stage before helping a smiley brown haired girl up.

She wore her hair loose and messy down over her shoulders and had a green tank top on with a pair of white high waist jeans. She moved closer to Riker pulling out her phone from her back pocket ad took kissy face pictures with him. Riker laughed at the resulting photos before glancing at Ross who wasn't smiling anymore.

The girl pointed at Ross whispering something into Riker's ear. He nodded at Rocky before murmuring something back, but she didn't give him much time to elaborate, she cut him off and ran over to Ross hugging him tightly which took him by surprise. She grinned and looked directly at me.

I jerked back turning to Bethany who also thought the same thing. The girl went up to the mic stand and took hold of the microphone waving hysterically at her group of friends who were cheering for her in the 2nd row. Making matters worse she even begged for a song, R5 looked at each other then looked to Riker who shrugged and smiled at Ross.

The girl squealed. taking that as an invitation for her to have a number with the group. I looked at Ross who rolled his eyes out to the audience and held it there for a while before sighing down at his guitar. He strummed the strings getting back into it- soon enough he was feeling pumped and ready for the next song. He forced a smile to Riker who started the band playing again- they did a cover of inseparable by the Jonas brothers. They rocked out on stage and so did the audience in standing- what an amazing concert!

When the concert came to an end I let out a huge sigh and smiled up at the ceiling with closed eyes. I turned to Bethany who was ringing her mum to tell her to pick us up. My attention was brought back to Shanell and Bradley. She hugged him goodbye "wish you didn't have to leave now" she pouted "we could have hanged a bit longer since I hardly see you."

"I don't want to go Shanny, but my dad is waiting for me" he said kissing her on the cheek then poked her shoulder twice. She laughed pushing him back, "If it makes you feel better I'll tweet you something nice later, ok?" he said with a shrug before turning to me, "Oh and Shennika, you guys got a ride and that?"

"Yeah, we're just waiting for Bethany's mum" I said putting my hands into the front pockets of my jeans. Bradley hugged us all goodbye but hugged Shanell the longest, he let out a groan when he heard his dad beep the horn "I'm coming!" he yelled back to his dad, he gave us one last smirk before jogging to his dad's car.

Bethany finished the phone call to her mum and smiled "she said she'll be here in like 10 minutes" she rolled her eyes "traffic." We all groaned then laughed in unison. Bethany locked her phone and looked around, "Shennika, where do you reckon the toilets are?"

I hummed and looked around the room for a sign when I saw a group of girls heading to a corridor near the left side of the stage, I pointed "follow those girls; I think they might be heading for the toilets too." Bethany nodded, looked back and ran after the girls. Minutes went past and Bethany's mum would be here soon and Beth hadn't returned, I had to go and find her.

"Shanell I can't leave you here by yourself, come with me to find Bethany quick" she looked down at her phone and saw it was 21:06pm then we ran for the corridor. The corridor was lit on both the floor and ceiling, and at the speed we were running it looked awesome and reminded us of an Sci-fi action movie; the tunnel leading to an airplane or a rocket.

We've been running for a while now passing loads of stage prop doors and lighting rooms but no toilets. Finally we reached the end and slowed down as we entered a dim open space where we found the girl toilets, we took a moment to catch our breath.

Shanell was the first to go in, but I had to stop to tie the laces of my ankle boots. Stupid laces! I thought to myself.

I heard an echo of voices approaching before a shadow towered over me blocking my light, "Do you mind!?" I said thoughtlessly.
When the person didn't move I looked up- pink converses, torn jeans, wristbands! Uh oh. My eyes widened as I glanced up. I jumped to my feet and looked at him, the blonde haired boy smiled back.
