The Technicolor Phase

Part 43-Angels

[Adam's POV]

We got off the plane,got our stuff, and headed outside. My eyes stung from the no stop crying that I did on the flight. In fact, I don't think I have anymore tears that could be shed. A hand was placed on my shoulder, I looked Breanne in the eye, she glanced down at the floor, I looked down at me feet. One foot was over the edge of a uncovered manhole that led to the sewer. I went around it and followed them to a rental car. As we walked, people passed us like we there everyday. I bet half of them didn't know who we were. We got to the car, got in and Breanne started driving to the hotel. Jasper sat in front and I sat beside Steve in the back. I fiddled with my fingers the whole time we were driving to the hotel. We were preforming tonight and it is already noon. We had a weather delay while on the plane. I sighed heavily as I stared out the window, the sky was blue with no clouds in the sky. I took a picture of it with my phone and sent it to Mom. I scrolled through who I texted. I saw one that I sent to Anna. I clicked on it. The last text I had sent her was when she was in New York, really Jasper sent the text for me since I was sprawled out on the floor with a stab wound in my side. I turned my phone off just as we pulled in the parking lot of the hotel. We got out, got our stuff and went inside. This time it was my turn to get the rooms. I did, we each got our own rooms. I went to mine and the rest went to theirs. My room was simple, a bed was against the right wall, the bathroom was on the left and a small table was on the back wall. I shut the door and set my suitcase down. While yawning, I shuffled my feet over to the bed and sat down. I felt sad and depressed. I exhaled softly and got off the bed and down on my knees, I rested my arms and head on the side of the bed and prayed. I prayed for me that I would get over the fact that Anna was probably dead and that I would feel better for the rest of the tour. I also prayed for Anna's dad. As I was praying, I swear I felt someone standing over me with a hand on my back. I finished praying and the feeling that someone was standing over me was gone. Oddly enough, I felt better and was ready to finish the tour. I texted the gang saying that I will be out and about for a few hours until the concert starts. I checked the weather and my phone said that it was warm outside. Before I went out I out on shorts, tennis shoes and a tee shirt. I stared at my legs, I keep forgetting that I have a prosthetic leg as my left one. Shrugging my shoulders, I went out.

As I walked around town, two teenage girls came up to me and asked for a picture. I took a picture with them. They looked down at my legs and asked what happened. I told them. When I finished telling them, they each hugged me. I asked if they were going to the concert tonight. They said that they can't because they don't have enough money.

"What are your names?" I asked

"Bridget Reid" the girl with black hair said

"Alexis Reid,Mr.Young" the other girl with brown hair said

"Bridget and Alexis Reid. Nice names, and you can call me Adam if you want to," I told them while reaching into my back pocket. I brought out two front row tickets to tonight's concert and handed it to them, "here you go."

They each held the tickets in their hand. Wide eyed with suprise they both looked at me and smiled.

"Thank you so much, Adam!" Bridget and Alexis said in unison.

"You're very welcome. Oh, and if you come early enough. Tell the security guard backstage that, Adam Young sent you and you can see me and the gang before the show." I told them as a smile grew on my face.

Bridget and Alexis hugged me and left. I stood there smiling and happy with myself. I was glad that I remembered that I had those tickets in my back pocket, thought how they got there I did not know. I wandered around town some more and talked to fans. Before I knew it, it was time to go back to the hotel and get ready. I went back. As I walked into the room. I saw a note on my bed. It was from AnnMarie. My heart beat quickened as I read it. Oh no. I folded it up and out it back on my bed as I got changed into jeans, a black tee shirt, and a hat. I wore the same tennis shoes. Before I went out I grabbed the note, put it in my pocket and forced myself to swallow. I said a quick prayer that what AnnMarie said she would do, she wouldn't do it. I headed out and was joined by Breanne, Jasper and Steve. We went out and got in the tour bus.
