POV Alyssa
stop number one - Glasgow, Scotland

the tour had now officially started. My first important day of taking pictures. At 12 o' clock, the crew and I were asked to meet in front of the hotel's back door so that we could drive to the arena. Of course we ate something before our departure, as it will be a long afternoon now.

We arrived at the arena, entered it and were amazed. The workers had already begun to set up and prepare everything. As soon as possible we went backstage, looked for our rooms and set up our facilities. Shawn has been warming up his voice all day because he didn't want to mess up the start of the Illuminate World Tour.

I grabbed out my camera and lenses, set up myself as best as possible and took pictures of the flowers standing in a vase in my room. When I had finished setting up the camera, I also went back to the front where the stage was. Shawn was already standing on it and talking into the microphone. Soundcheck.

¶ A little later ¶

After the show I was sitting on the couch. The whole crew was in the arena and helped to clean the things up and I was alone backstage, looking at all the pictures I took and bored me a little bit. 

"Can I also look at the pictures?" said a deep voice which sounded similar. 

I looked at Shawn and started smiling. 

"Of course" 

Shawn sat down next to me. I gave him the camera in his hands because I had already seen all the pictures double and triple. I looked at Shawn and waited. I wanted to see how he reacts to my pictures.

"Wow, Alyssa. These pictures are really awesome. You have talent," Shawn said and I could swear I saw his eyes sparkle.

"Thank you. I really appreciate your words," I smiled broadly. 

"We couldn't have found a better replacement than you. You're just as good as Josiah!", he gave me my camera back and looked me in the eyes with a grin.

"I wouldn't call myself as good as Josiah, but thank you," I also started to grin.

Shawn and I looked into each other's eyes for a few seconds until he rose. I expected him to walk away and mind his own business. However, this was not the case.

"Andrew said we can leave when we're ready. Do you feel like getting something to eat?" Shawn asked me.

I nodded silently and grabbed my bag which was packed with camera stuff. Like a little puppy dog, I followed Shawn happily. I will never regret taking this job.
