I'm super excited for today. Why? Because Emily is driving all the way to the show today, which means I get to see my best friend! Her and Nicholls have been getting pretty serious. Come to think of it, I believe they're dating now. It's about time.
The bands already had their soundcheck done, so we were all just relaxing on the bus waiting for Emily to arrive.
"When's she supposed to get here?" Oliver murmured to me.
I looked at the time on my phone and smiled, "She should be here right about no-" I was cut off by a small knock on the bus door, causing my smile to widen, "Now." I finished.
Matt nearly flew to open the door for her and let her inside. She stepped on to the bus and looked around with a curious expression, kind of like how I was the first time I arrived on the bus. Her gaze lingered on all our faces till she found mine and a huge smile appeared on her lips.
"Amanda!" She squealed, running to me.
I jumped up, smiling just as wide, and pull her into a tight hug. Finally, I wasn't the only girl on this bus now. "Hi!"
The guys watched us quietly, trying not to laugh at how dumb we must of seemed. "Hey, Amanda, why don't you show her around the bus?" Nicholls suggested.
I nodded and grabbed her hand, pulling her to the bunks. "Okay so, I'm pretty sure you'll be sharing a bunk with Matt.. So this one is yours." I pointed to the bunk across the walkway from mine. She nodded.
I showed her where she'd be keeping her bag, the bathroom, back lounge, and that was about it. Soon enough, it was time to go to the show. We walked back to the front of the bus with our arms linked, but I let her go so Matt could hold her hand.
Oli jumped up and took my hand, lacing our fingers together, "You ready?"
"Ready." I nodded.
Everyone stepped off the bus to a bunch of screaming fans all lined up along the venue. I peeked up at Oli to see his reaction to this. He looked so happy to see them, not to mention they were calling out his name.
"Look, it's Amanda!" A girl from a large group called out.
I turned my head to look over at her and smiled, "Hi there!"
She squealed and ran to me, pulling me into a hug. I was taken aback at first but soon returned the hug. Definitely wasn't used to this, wow.
"It's so nice to see you in person, you're totally like, ten times more prettier! Can I get a picture?"
My eyes widened but I nodded and glanced up at Oli who was laughing, "Yes, yes of course." Why would a fan want a picture with me though?
She handed her phone to one of the friends in her group and took her place next to me. I was a lot shorter than her, oh god. Embarrassing. We both smiled to the camera and I gave her another hug, "It was nice meeting you." I said with a smile.
"It was nice meeting you too, oh my god!" She squealed again and ran back to her friends.
Oliver took my hand again and walked into the venue, glancing down at me with a quiet laugh, "Was that weird?"
"Extremely.." I shook my head in disbelief.
~*~
Emily and I stayed behind while Bring Me did a signing after the show. I thought it was sweet of them to do for the fans that stayed behind a little longer, just hoping they'd have the chance to meet them.
"So Matt was telling me that they wanted to go out tonight, but I'm not really feeling up for that.. Will you stay back with me?" Emily asked me after a moment.
