I slowly go into the restaurant, clutching the walls as I walk. I'm so nervous, so scared, but so happy all at once.

"T-Thank you, Vic." I mutter out, while shaking.

"No problem. I mean you're a fan, a hometown fan too. You deserve it. Anyways, the guys are cool, no need to be nervous." He says as he stops me to calm me down.

"Uh. Ok. I'll try not to be."

We are almost at the table, the guys are waving at us both.

"Hi, how are you? What's your name?" Jaime says.

"H-H-Hi. I'm Bailey. I'm good, I guess."

"Nice name." Tony says quietly.

"How old are ya?" Mike asks.

"Um, I'm 16."

"Ah, that's cool. What'd you do for your 16th?" He continues.

"Umm, it's weird. I had it at Lips."

"Oh my god, that's great." Vic says behind me.

"You know you can sit down, right?" Jaime says sarcastically.

Vic and I take our place at the table. I'm across from Mike, next to Tony, Vic is on the end and Jaime is next to Mike. Wow, I'm sitting at a table, having Mexican food with Pierce The Veil, this is unheard of.

"So a 16th birthday with a bunch of drag queens must've been interesting, huh?" Mike asks.

"Yeah, it was pretty cool, they're fucking hilarious." I say.

"They really are." Jaime replies while giggling.

"Wait, you're not joking, you're really 16? You look like a fucking adult." Mike says with no hesitation.

"Yeah, I've always looked older. When I was 14, I was at a Panic! At The Disco concert alone in Vegas, and I was surrounded by drunk people. One of them was a Canadian woman, who was about to fall off the balcony. She asked me why I wasn't drinking, I told her I was 14, and she completely flipped her shit."

All the guys just started laughing and laughing.

"When I was 14, I looked like a fucking Chihuahua," said Vic.

I began to laugh with them. It was great.

"Umm, so are we going to get food, or not?" Jaime asked.

"Shut up, let the girl talk." Tony chimed in.

"Yeah, you can wait a minute, Jaime. So what's your story, why'd you start listening to our music?" Vic asked.

"Umm, it's a long long long story," I replied, and started looking at the ground.

"You alright?" Mike asked.

"I'm fine, just a lot of shit has gone on."

"Well, you can tell us." Tony said with an intrigued look.

"I will, but can we eat first? I'm really hungry, and so is Jaime."

"Sure." They all say in agreement.
