Perri's POV
We were backstage, setting everything up and making sure everything was perfect. Nerves fluttered up in my stomach like butterflies. And I can tell I'm not the only one feeling anxious. Alli was practically shaking, Carter kept pacing back and forth, and Ollie was so worried about losing their voice, they had refrained from speaking all day. Dave? Dave was surprisingly calm, texting someone on his phone. Kim was speaking with Fall Out Boy on the other side of the stage.
Tyler and Josh, the twenty one pilots guys were back here as well. I walked over to them, to see if they were as wound up as we were.
"Hey" Said Tyler as I sat down beside him.
"Hi" I replied. "I'm so nervous. We've never played a crowd this big before!"
"Us neither" He chuckled. "We've only ever played this little café in Ohio"
I laughed. Tyler seemed like he was about to say something, but he got distracted by something behind me.
"What is it?" I asked. He nodded his head at the direction he was looking in. I turned around and gasped at what he was looking at. Or, rather, who he was looking at.
Like a golden god, all dressed up in his famous shiny suit, Brendon Urie strutted in like he owned the place.
We were all starstruck, especially me and Ollie. Brendon Urie was our hero. I knew we would bump into him at some point on this tour, I just wasn't expecting it to be so soon.
"Hey everybody" He said.
"Hey!" Ollie said immediately, forgetting completely about saving their voice. They just wanted to get close to Brendon.
"You guys excited to perform?" Brendon asked. We all nodded, nerves forgotten.
He smirked at us, and Ollie practically had a seizure. He was about to leave, when the last person you'd expect to be here, came into the room.
"Ryan Freakin' Ross!" Screamed Ollie. "What the heck are you doing here?"
Ryan and Brendon laughed at them. "I decided to re-join Panic for this tour. Kinda like a reunion" Ryan said.
Everyone was open-mouthed and in shock. Ryan Ross, re-join Panic? Nobody was expecting this. Granted, it was for this tour only, but still.
I looked over at Ollie. They were in full on shipping mode. I rolled my eyes.
"Well guys, it's about time you get on stage" Said Brendon. We nodded and gathered up our instruments.
"Perri?" Alli said to me before we went on. "I'm nervous"
"We all are, Al" I told her. We both took a deep breath and walked on stage.
The crowd cheered as went on. Surprising, seeing as they'd never heard of us before.
"We! Are! They Never Will!" Ollie screamed into the microphone. The crowd cheered once more, and we started performing.
We had a few original songs, and everyone seemed to love them. Like, really love them. They even sung along to the chorus for a few of them.
There were a few Panic groupies right next to the stage who were really into it. There was an extraordinarily pretty one with dark hair, who freaked out when Ollie winked at her.
Our set was around 45 minutes long, but it seemed to be over in a flash. Once we were finished, the crowd screamed for more. I wanted to stay on stage forever, I didn't want the adrenalin rush I was feeling to go away, but it was time for twenty one pilots to perform.
It was hot and sweaty onstage, so we were grateful for the cooling fan that was waiting for us offstage.
As twenty one pilots were performing, Fall Out Boy came to see us backstage.
"That was amazing you guys!" Said Patrick. "Alli, you killed those backing vocals!"
"Thanks" Alli said breathlessly. I raised my eyebrow at the fact that he only acknowledged Alli, but he didn't see.
"The VIP box is open for you guys if you wanna watch us and Panic perform" Offered Pete.
We all nodded eagerly, and left the backstage area.
"Well, Patrick certainly enjoyed your performance" I teased Alli.
"Shut up" She said. I laughed, and sat down happily in the VIP box.
I can't wait for the rest of this tour.
Brendon's POV
After me and Ryan performed I was estatic. The crowd was on their feet when everyone from all the bands came on stage for the finale. A group performance of Save Rock and Roll.
As the music began I smiled at Ryan. Man I'd missed him. Panic just wasn't Panic without him. I could feel his presence as I sang. I was no Elton John but I tried.A/N: This isn't my best chapter guys, but TRUST ME THIS IS GONNA GET INTERESTING SOON.
