From Two Different Worlds

One Amazing Show!

Angie POV:

A few Hours Later:

As I put away my equipment I see Chester walking towards me. "Hey, you need help?" I looked up to him "I don't know? Would it be wrong to ask my employer for help?" I hear a chuckle coming out, he kneels down to help me out but was interrupted by my boss "Chester don't do that I am sure Angie can handle all the equipment by herself. Isn't that right Angie?" I looked and I can see he is pissed that Chester is helping me out. "I know Angie can handle it but I want to help, also if you speak to her that way again I am sure your boss would be delighted to hear from me." I laughed inside my head. My boos started to walk towards the other stage handlers all mad because of what Chester said, "Thanks, Chester but you really don't need to help me." I tell him he looks at me "I know but I want to help that is what friends do right?" Chester and I place all the equipment on the trolly and I start pushing it "By the way why you need all this equipment, Angie?" I explained to him that people who record the live performance using all this in order to get every sound and picture.

We finally reach where I need to be I turned around to face Chester and grab the bag from him, "Thank you for your help Chester now go on that stage and make some music." He gives me and thumbs up I felt a tap on my shoulder I turned around to see it is Mike. "Can I get a good luck kiss?" I can see he is blushing, I smirk and give him a good luck kiss "You don't need luck, you already are awesome." I can see his blush turns few shades darker which makes me smile, he gives me a kiss on the forehead and starts to walk towards the stage. As I get my camera ready for the show I hear few girls saying how could Mike choose a girl like me before I could say anything I hear a woman's voice "HEY! IF YOU WANT START A ISSUE WITH THE NEW GIRL YOU CAN SAY IT TO HER FACE!" I turned around to see a short girl with long black hair in a tight bun.

After she yelled at them they start walking away, "Are you okay?" I looked up at her and I can see her hand is out for me to take it so I can get up. "Yes, I am thank you for your help with those girls." As I took her so I can get up "No problem those girls always picked on new people my name is Tarah and yours?" I smiled and shook her hand and smiled at her "My name is Angie nice to meet you." Tarah show me where I can set up my cameras and where the mics will be on the stage. To be honest she actually made my job a lot easier.

Two Hours later:

As I pack up the equipment I can feel arms being wrapped around my waist, I turned around and see it's Mike "You scared me, Mike! Don't do that!" I hear Mike giggle and says that he is sorry for doing so, as we start walking to the van which is the vehicle I used to carry my equipment Mike asked me how was my day? I told him about the girls that were picking on me until a girl name Tarah helped me out. "Oh! I know Tarah she works on the lights and sound when we do shows, she really nice girl until you make mad haha." That was an understatement she really almost tore those girls head off when they started picking on me. After putting the equipment in the van my phone starts to ring, I looked down to see who it was. I was shocked to see who it was. "I will be back Mike I need to take this call."

Mike POV:

  I nodded my head and told her I was staying right here. She nods her head and starts walking away to answer the call, I felt like it wasn't a normal call it felt like something just happened and she doesn't want me to find out what it is. As I stand there is can see Angie's expression change from concern to worried to complete blank. I felt like I had knots in my stomach because I am nervous on the phone call Angie had to answer. As I stand there I was messing with my hands, I decided to look on my phone so I don't look too nervous. 

   After ten mins waiting for her Angie was finally off the phone, her head was down I couldn't see her eyes at all "What is wrong Angie?" I asked her out of concern, she lifts her head and I see tears flow down like a waterfall. "He is gone Mike, my grandfather is gone he died around one in the morning today." I brought her into a tight embrace and I can feel her tears hit my shirt like bullets. Hearing Angie cry is the worse feeling ever and the sad thing is I can't do anything about it. It felt like forever having Angie in my arms, finally she stopped crying "Thank you, Mike, for letting me just cried sorry that I got your shirt all wet." I nodded my head no "Don't worry about it Angie do you know how he passed away?" Angie tells me that his heart gave out but he passed away peacefully which made her happy. 

   I asked her if she wanted me to drive to the hotel all she could do was give a nod of the head. On the way to the hotel it was quiet it was so quiet you could hear a pin fall to the ground. "Mike?" I hear Angie calling my name "I know this is an odd question but would you and the bandmates go with me to my grandfather's funeral? To be honest I really don't want to go alone especially dealing with my father." I place my hand on her lap, I can see Angie looks at me when I did this "Angie you know I would do anything for you no matter what it is, I know the guys would be there for you as well. Do not worry we have your back no matter what." I can feel Angie placing her hand on top of mine and rubbing it gently "Thank you, Mike, it makes me happy and less worried when you said that." I see the light turned red, I take my seatbelt off and leaned over towards Angie and gave her a kiss on the lips to my surprise she kisses back. I hear a honk behind me I pulled away and continue to drive. 

Few Minutes Later: 

Angie POV: 

  We finally got back to the hotel we were staying at, Mike tells me that we are leaving in the morning to fly to the next city but I told him that I will not be going. I explained to him and my boss that I to fly back to LA be with family and help with the funeral, he pulls me into a hug "Please call me when you get home okay." All I can do is nod my head I try my best not to cry in Mike's arms. "Mike, can you stay with me tonight? I really don't want to be alone." It was odd for me to ask him that I didn't want him to think that I am needed "Sure I will stay the night let me go to my room and get my stuff okay?" I nod my head in response, I open the door for him and closed it behind him. I decided to sit on my bed and start thinking all the things that have happened today. 

 My thoughts were interrupted by a phone call to my surprise it was my mom calling me again, I answer it has been two years since I talked to my mom and the last time I did we didn't end in good terms. 

Me: Hi mom

Mom: Hey are you okay? 

Me: Yeah I am okay just sitting in my hotel room right now, what is up? 

Mom: Well I talked to your dad and he is not happy that you are coming to the funeral. 

Me: But he was my grandfather! Are you telling me that I can't even attend my own grandfather's funeral! 

Mom: No I am not saying that sweetie all I am saying just for one day can you two put your differences aside. 

Me: *About to explode* BUT OUR DIFFERENCES ASIDE! THAT MAN BURNED MY HAND TO THE POINT I HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL FOR SECOND DEGREE BURNS! AFTER FOUR YEARS MOM YOU STILL TAKE HIS SIDE EVEN AFTER EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE TO ME AND YOU! HOW ABOUT THIS HOW ABOUT I PRETEND THAT BOTH OF YOU DON'T EXIST! 

 I hung up the phone and slammed it on my bed, after all these years I still don't understand why that woman still chooses to protect him instead of her only daughter. I hear a knock on my door I get up and open it, sure enough, it was Mike. "Hey I heard screaming are you okay?" I step aside to let him in, I closed the door behind him "Yeah I am okay just got into an argument with my mom, she wanted me to put my anger towards my father aside the sake of my family."
