-Your P.O.V-

I gotta finish this album. Soon.

Just a few more songs to go.

I stare at my half-finished lyrics on a sheet of wrinkly paper I've been writing and erasing on for the past few days now.

I still have a few more months but time seems to be flying by.

It's already December.

Just a couple more days until it's New Years Eve.

Wow.

So much has happened this year.

I sit up a bit, noticing my phone screen light up.

I stretch over to pick it up, taking a break from song writing.

My eyes adjust to the brightness of my phone screen, blinking a few times.

I haven't checked my phone in a while.

2 missed calls from Josh Dun👽

Josh...

My palm raises to my cold forehead as I close my eyes.

I haven't talked to Josh in such a long time it seems like.

We're both just so busy.

This distance is also a big downer too.

I'm sorry Josh.

"Hey-"

"Oh! God..Victoria, don't sneak up on me like that." I'm interrupted from my thoughts as I hear Victoria and jump out of surprise.

"Heh." Victoria giggles a bit, covering her smirk. "Sorry."

I hold my hand over my heart, feeling it's quick pace start to slow down, I giggle a bit as well.

"So, what do you want?"

"We gotta do sound check. C'mon." Victoria extends her arm, placing her open hand in front of me.

Grabbing her warm hand, my sister and I exit the tour bus.

-Josh's P.O.V-

Idiot, Idiot, Idiot...

I collapse onto the bed of the tour bus, causing a few objects around me to make noise.

She's busy, why do you even bother? Stop holding her back.

I cover my red face in my hands.

My hands move up and start running through my red locks.

"Uh..."

I look up to see my best friend standing at the door way.

"Is this a bad time?" Tyler asks.

I sit up and sigh.

"N-No, what's up?" I shrug.

"We gotta go to an interview, remember?" Tyler points his thumb towards the end of the tour bus, suggesting we have to leave soon.

Interview? Must've slipped my mind.

Seems like everything's been slipping my mind lately, except for her.

I've been forgetting parts of songs, I haven't been able to focus on anything, I haven't talked to anybody recently.

"Oh, r-right. Yeah, let's go." I grab my jacket, heading out the tour bus with Tyler.
