-Austin-

The music blared, smoke from cigarrets and bongs filled the crowded bus. I felt a bit light headed, but my heart could handle it.

Don’t get me wrong, I love a good party especially since we’re celebrating today being the day we kick off our tour with Bring Me The Horizon.

But their bus right now was filled with my members and there’s, along with strangers. Pretty and strange faces showing up from time to time. Some recognized, some not.

I let my eyes wander around the bus as I sat alone in the back, a beer in my hand, not really feeling getting wasted tonight. I spotted Alan who was the source of all the smoke with a bong between his legs.

I shook my head and laughed, but wasn’t arguing with it. I also spotted a couple making out on the couch across from me, I couldn’t see any signs of who either of them were so I couldn’t help but stare and wonder, but came up blank.

Shrugging it off, I continued looking around until my eyes met big, soft brown ones with long dark eyelashes that framed them perfectly, covered with light eye makeup. She had been lite up with a smile that slowly dropped as we stared at each other but I couldn’t help myself, I grinned at her beauty and she followed my lead.

She wore a short, tight black dress that caught her curves at all the right places, with a leather jacket that zipped up until it sent off a good amount of cleavage that made her look sexy.

Her height was small, so short. But that was ok, her smile paid up for it as she glowed back at me. She had a full framed grin, both rows of teeth that shined. Soft pink lips, and a small nose with a ring pierced through it.

Long brown curly hair fell off her shoulders and down her back, also framing her face perfectly. No bangs, but she was able to run her hand through it.

After a while of staring, I wasn’t sure if I was even blinking and had to excuse myself to look at the floor and refresh. Even through the loud music and slurring voices from the people around us, I could hear her laugh.

It was loud, rough, but cute. You could handle listening to it because it could make you smile like it did to me.

She was standing in the corner from just picking up a beer and she started walking straight, seeming like it’d be in my direction but then she cut a turn and sat next to the couple still making out.

Did she know them? From the tap on his shoulder, I’m guessing she did.

I didn’t want to seem like a crazy stalker, but I also couldn’t take my eyes off of her even if she took them off of me.

The couple turned around, revealing that it was Oli and his girlfriend, actually fiancee Hannah. Instantly, I got a relief, for a second I thought I was going to see a threesome unfold right before my eyes.

Their engaged, serious, loving, no competition. But he could help me out with this girl, introduce us at the least.

They got lost in conversation and I was forgotten, which made my stomach grow empty in disappointment, but I tried to shake it off. Although, I just couldn’t. I kept staring, watching as she threw her head back and covered her mouth while she laughed. Her gentle touch when she grabbed Hannah’s hair, it looked like she was complimenting her, which just made me smile even more.

Then I noticed how Oli caught my stare and nodded at me, he grinned at me and I gave him one back. Then the girls followed his trace of sight and her eyes landed on me, she cracked a smile.

I wasn’t 100% sure, but I saw how she asked who I was, I knew it was true when I saw my name being mouthed as Oli said it.

She continued to look at me, a small smile perking on her lips as she looked me up and down, although I kept my grin, I was hiding how insecure she made me. She was so beautiful, young. Was I going to be good enough?

I lost all hope, but then a small bit of it was restored when she winked at me and I gave her more smiles. She made a face and I copied her, this went on for awhile before she gave up and let out a laugh.

Looking at her like this, made me forget about everyone around us and how someone had been asking me a question but gave up after awhile since I wasn’t listening.

Randomly she stood up and my heart pounded as I thought she was coming my way, but she took a stop at the couch across the lounge where Alan sat.

I swallowed and studied them, they knew each other? Were they flirting? She giggled, so he must’ve been and then she leaned down and took a heavy hit from the bong in his lap.

She held it in and sat back before leaning her head back against the couch, she exhaled and slowly, released all the smoke that swirled in the air as she smiled.

Finally, she got up and came my way.
