Masquerade (Michael Clifford)

Chapter 6

  The concert was over and an old muscular man came towards us. This is actually happening. I'm going to meet All Time Low.

"Are you....Marlett?" the old man asked us. Michael chuckled and nodded. The man told us to follow him, so we did. He led us to a door on the left side of the stage. He put in a code and the door opened.

"So here are your passes. Go down the hall and look to your right. There will be a door that says 'Backstage 5' on it. Just walk in there and the boys will be in there soon." he gave us our passes and pointed down the hall. Michael and I nodded and said thank you to the mysterious man. We followed his directions, me slightly ahead of him. I was skipping down the hall with my eyes closed. Next thing I know I'm on the floor.

"Scarlett Evans are you okay?" Michael said looking down at me.

"Hey Scar!" a very familiar voice said. I opened my and saw,

"Calum?"

"No its Column, yes its Calum you idiot."

"SCARLETT, GIRL, ARE YOU OKAY YOU HIT YOUR HEAD PRETTY HARD, AND OH LOOK AT MICHAEL HELPING YOU. ALEX IF I FELL WOULD YOU HELL ME UP?!"Jack came out of nowhere and started yelling. Michael helped me up, and looked at Calum raising an eyebrow. Calum shrugged his shoulders which causes a scoff from Michael. Alex came out with Zach and Rian following. My body stiffened, All Time fucking Low was standing in front of me.

"Where's your friend?" Zach asked Calum.

"Bathroom." he said, eyes wide.

"Ok, so Marlett will be in room 5. And you and Orange Shirt will be in room 7. We'll be there in about 15 minutes. Make yourselves comfortable." Rian said pointing down the hall. We nodded still starstruck that they were here.

"NO SEX ON THE COUCH PLEASE. OR THE TABLES!" Alex yelled running down the hall. Oh. Michael looked down at me and wiggled his eyebrows. I punched his shoulder lightly.

"Come on pervert." I said pulling him towards room 5. Calum went to find 'Orange Shirt'. I was very curious as to who 'Orange Shirt' was. It was obviously a girl. It couldn't be Holly because she absolutely despises All Time Low. Maybe it was just his cousin.

   We got in our and it was like a small hotel room. There was a table with magazines and some fruit on it. A little desk type of thing holding up a TV. A black love seat, a couch that could fit about four people, and a mini fridge. Michael went straight for the table filled with fruits and magazines, while I went to the love seat and pulled out my phone. I had five texts from Paige. Oh shit.

Paige (:

Where are you really going?

Paige (:

Scarlett I know you're not with Kenna, she's out with ashton

Paige (:

You're lucky i love you, I won't tell Collin

Paige (:

ANSWER ME WHERE ARE YOU

Paige (:

Are you with that Clifford boy?

   I decided I should text her back. But the question is, what should I tell her? I couldn't tell her I snuck out. Even worse with Michael. She'd tell Collin and I'll get in major trouble. She did say she wouldn't tell him. But they tell each other everything.
