I.L.Y || Road Trip A.U

Eight

Tour came around quickly, it seemed like it was two days ago when we were deciding which cities to go to, which venues to play in and which songs to perform. Now we're sitting in our dressing room, waiting to go on stage for our first performance of the tour.

"I really need the toilet," Rye announced to the group. "Quick, lets go before we have to go on stage."

Taking our vlogging camera, we all followed Rye to the toilets, hiding from fans who would be able to see us in the audience; since we had to pass the stage. Luckily, we didn't get caught and made it safely without being ambushed.

After we had all been to the toilet we decided we should just do our vocal warm ups in the bathroom then ran back to our dressing room, again, without being caught and we made it back just in time to hear our name being called to go on stage.

For the first time in a while, I'm actually nervous to go on stage. I don't know wether it's because I haven't performed for a while, wether its because it's the first gig of the tour or wether it's because I know Jess will be in the audience...

But I'm just going to have to forget about my stage fright and focus on performing the best I've ever performed.

-Jess' P.O.V-

I can't believe I'm actually here. I can't believe I'm going to see Mikey perform for the first time. I can't believe we got to the barrier.

Loud screams echoed through out the room as all four... wait... all five boys ran onto the stage. I didn't think Jack would be performing since he's still in trial, or maybe it's part of his trial? I have no idea.

Quickly pulling my phone out of my pocket, I began to video the boys as they performed their first song:"Miss Taken", Mikey told me that this song is about a boy in high school who fancies his teacher and he thinks that she fancies him back but she clearly doesn't because she's his teacher. At least I think thats what it's about anyway.

As the song came to an end, Mikey searched the room as his eyes filled with hope. After scanning each persons face in the audience, his eyes landed on me. I've never seen him with a bigger smile on his face. I just want to jump on stage and give him a massive hug, but obviously I can't do that and I have to wait until then meet and greet.

RoadTrip played through their set list and eventually got to their new song that Mikey had sang to me... the one about the special girl... the one that I wish was about me...

As the boys sang through the verses of the song, Mikey made his way to the side of the stage that I was standing at. He jumped down and was stood directly opposite me. At this point, the only thing separating us was the barrier. Grabbing my hand, Mikey sang the chorus to their song: "I.L.Y".

"You've got me like I.L.Y you're driving me crazy, you've got me like I.L.Y I love you baby," he sang as he kept a tight grip on my hand. "I love you, I love you."

Quickly letting go of my hand, he ran off stage a long with all the other boys. The music went off. Everyone around me were screaming for RoadTrip to come back.

He was gone. Mikey was gone again...
