Zack noticed me before Rian did. "Hey whose the new girl?' He said smiling, they are all so friendly. 

"This beauty's name is Talia." Jack replied before I could introduce myself.

"Dude, she seems super cool maybe she can hang with us at the acoustic set tonight." Zack said eager for a response. 

"Yeah, totally how about it?" Jack said looking at me with puppy dog eyes.

I smiled widely ,"Absolutely! Ill just have to find Heaven and see if she is down for it." I grinned and turned back to Jack. God he was perfect.

"Well you have no choice really!" Jack said jokingly. RRIINNGG! RRIINNGG! RRIINNG! I looked down at my phone. Heaven was calling me.

 "Just a second guys" i said and stepped off the bus to get some air while on the phone.

"TALIA" Heaven said loudly on the other line.

"HEAVEN!" i yelled back.

"I got invited to this acoustic set thing, are you able to go?"

"Yeah, I actually got invited by Jack." I smiled when I said his name. Oh Talia your in deep.

"YOU'RE TELLING ME EVERY DETAIL TONIGHT! Unless you had sex i don't want to know!" She laughed at me.

"Well Heaven you just so happen to have to tell me everything that's going on with you and mr ingle" I said in an obvious tone.

"Okay deal! I was just checking up on you,I guess Ill see you at the acoustic set! Bye!" 

"Haha deal!" she said over the phone. "Okay well I was just checking up on you. I guess the acoustic thing is soon so ill see you their!"

"Okay bye! See you in a bit, "my angel" i said mockingly and hung up. I walked slowly and quietly onto the bus. 

I over heard Alex say ,"Jack you really like her alot, I can tell I'm your best friend!"

Then Jack added, "I've never felt this way before, its crazy!" I walked onto the bus happier knowing that he likes me. 

Heavens POV

Later that we found each other at the acoustic set. Christofer had left to put his band name in the bucket. I gave Talia a giant hug. "SO how did it go?" I said anxious for a response.

 "Actually amazing! Heaven I've never felt like this before." she blushed really hard.

"Dude I know, like I've wanted them for ever! I've dreamed about being with them, chilling with them or even being their girlfriend, and now its like actually happening!" I said fangirling a little.

"I still cant believe this is happening." Talia took a huge breath, "At least Jack is a great person to make out with."  she said with a smirk.

"OOOOOOHH!" I said like a child. "Get some!" I laughed. Just then Christofer walked back and hugged me from behind. 

"Their about to start the acoustic." he smiled.

"Wait, Talia and I are in a band, well kinda can you put our name in?" He looked am me in shock but nodded.

"Ya, sure angel." he kissed my cheek and I gave him the paper with our name on it. 

"Me get some, what about you!?" Talia said doing some hip thrusts, "Bown chicka bow woow!" 

I laughed. "Na nothing like that, it was more like a cute game of tag!" Christofer came back and we sat down on the wood logs. This had a really campfire feel to it. Just then someone walked up to the front where we were all facing and put a mic down next to the long log in the middle. I looked and noticed it was KELLIN! uhh! He seems so cool! I definitely need to chill with him and Vic sometime.

"Hey everyone, we're going to start the acoustic show so may the odds be ever in your favor!" he said quoting The Hunger Games. Everyone laughed as Kellin walked up to the bucket. " The first set of three acoustic songs is by... drum roll please." Everyone patted their laps super fast, "All Time Low!" I could see Talia look over at Jack, who was now standing beside her, he smiled to her. AWE their so dang cute! Alex, Jack and Zack proceeded to the middle log and sat down. Alex adjusted the mic and they all started to strum in unison. They played For Baltimore. Omg they were so good. I'm not gonna lie Alex's voice was really good!

After they were done Alex took a quick sip of water and then said ,"Alright this is called Lullabies." Half way through the song, well not even, Talia was crying so much she was debating whether or not to leave so she could get fixed up. But I guess everyone was crying, even Alex a little. After he finished he wiped his eyes and took another sip."I'm really sorry guys. I've never cried that much while singing this song." Jack set his guitar down and gave him a hug for a while. He definitely needed it. "Alright I'm good!" he smiled. "So this ones out to a special pretty lady who is making my man candy super happy!" He winked and pointed to Talia. She was red enough from crying but now she looked  like a tomato! They sang Remembering Sunday and it was honestly by far the best version I've ever heard of it. Maybe because Jack was smiling like an idiot? But it was really cute seeing how happy they made each other. When they were done Alex said thank you for watching and they got up and went to put their guitars back in their tour bus. 

"Alright, that was sweet. So now for the next... drum roll!" he looked at the piece of paper and laughed, "You got to be freaken kidding me! Sleeping With Sirens." he said in between laughs." 

Gabe said from somewhere on my right, "We filled out like 40 cards so you would have to perform." Kellin gave him the middle finger jokingly and the band began to set up. Kellin sang If I'm James Dean You're Audrey Hepburn, Satellites, and All My Heart. They got up and put their guitars away while Kellin announced the last acoustic for the night. He put his hand in the bucket and read the name. "Chasing The Stars?" He looked up confused. Actually Everyone looked confused. Talia and I stood up and everyone's eyes were on us. Christofer handed me his guitar and told me ill be amazing and to not forget to smile on the other hand Jack ran to get his guitar. Oh that little stud. We walked up and sat down on the log. I was to shy to talk in front of all my hero's so i passed the mic to Talia. 

"Hey! We're Chasing The Stars! I'm Talia, and this is Heaven" I gave a little wave," we're here with Jack and Christofer, um right now we do some covers and we've wrote a couple so um ya!" Just then Jack came over with his guitar and Talia kissed him on the cheek. "Good luck." I heard him whisper to her. "Hey Derek! Can we sing a mayday parade song. PWEASE!" He laughed and gave us a thumbs up. 

"One..Two..Three.." I whispered loud enough for Talia to hear. We started strumming. Talia helped me in the chorus. We finished and everyone started clapping. Talia looked at me and smiled. This is a great feeling being able to accomplish something this incredible with a friend. Talia spoke up again, "This is an original song, called Questions For Me At Night." I almost started crying when she said that. I passed her the mic. She started to strum and I did as well. Im  a little shocked because she never sings this song to anyone but me. The songs about her depression. Nobody knows but Talia was in foster care until she was 8 years old. She went to some good homes but some bad too. Theirs alot she hasn't told people. Like how she got that scar on her eyebrow. The song finished and she was in tears. She smiled and wiped her tears away. "Thanks guys." I ran my guitar to christofer and gave him the guitar in exchange for his uke. I came back with the courage to actually talk. "So were going to end this on a happier note and sing.. you guessed it Happy by the one and only NeverShoutNever. We both sang and smiled the entire time. 

When we were done Kellin ran up to us and gave us both a hug. "You guys are amazing!" Talia and I looked at each other, blushing. Woah, how is this happening?!
