It wasn't until a week later until things picked back up with Jake and it got a lot more exciting. With a result of Hedley touring, you felt it was necessary to go to a show near you.
As a new environment, even with Jake knowing you're coming, you got lost throughout the back halls of the arena and pass two dressed up teenagers as you call Jacob.
It wasn't until you felt a second (and third) presence behind you. Since it was already a minute of you and Jacob talking and him joking around and trying to find what hallway you're in; you clue in that they're following you because of Jacob. You quickly change the conversation and start to order a pizza. You end it with saying Jacob but as if he was your friend, the cashier at a pizza place.
"I'm in a blue hallway, with a lot of framed pictures of I think hockey players on the wall-Yeah, maybe. Gosh, yes Jake, Maddie so likes you. Wait, will you get in trouble for talking to me and not taking my order? I'd like a pepperoni pizza with you know, the usual. But put that aside, I'll be out from the show and everything at eleven, when do you get off-"
You exhaled of relief, the girls stopped following. You smile but soon hear Jacob's voice again.
"What the fu-" You interrupted before he could finish.
"These two girls were following me, you need a nickname so you won't be that obvious. How about... hmm, I suck at nicknames."
"Hawk." Jacob laughs. "Soaring Eagle."
"You're lame, that is like naming your cat dog." You reply and continue to walk down another hall way, your voice echoed through the empty halls and you start to be unsure where you are.
"Hey, I was considering dog for Wally but I felt I liked Wallace better than Doggings." You question what Jacob is even talking about because one. That sentence is weird and two. Distractions.
"So, where are you?" You are changing the subject so you don't have to comment on Jacob's remark.
"I was looking for you but I feel like you're lost and you know, I'm more important than you, so if I get lost looking for you, whom is lost. Then who is in the real trouble?" Jacob explains, you end his sentence with a sarcastic scoff and a slight laugh.
"The person who is lost is in trouble. Come find me." You say loudly and listen to the echoes. "If you can."
You caught Jacob's last words that you cut off. "But where" You cut off by ending the call but not his voice.
You hear the echo of his voice. "is the person who is lost?"
Through laughter you try to gesture your hands to make a sound of a loon. It wasn't until a loud blow of air making you burst out into laughter realizing how stupid this seems, stop you from trying.
"What am I even doing?" You ask yourself as you slide down the hall, sitting the floor. "Jake if you hear me whistle."
"Jake if you hear me, whistle.
Jake if you he-"
A high and long whistle begins to echo throughout the hallway.
"Jake, come to my voice. Jake, I'm not getting up. I'm not lazy I swear." You try to see if it was Jake. "I broke my leg!" You laugh. I guess the isolation of a different environment drives you a little insane.
Moments later you begin see a bearded man carrying a cooler walks past, with a Jacob Hoggard tagging along behind him, you start to decipher the words that Jake is saying.
"Hey, so you come here often?" A large sigh followed from the bearded man and a chuckle. "I mean, just let me-HEY LOOK WHAT THE CAT DRAGGED IN." Jake stops and you guys finally meet up.
"He sure is a keeper!" The bearded man jokes as he continues to walk with the cooler.
You get up and Jake informs you that if you took three left turns you'd end up in the back area where most of the grumpy stage crew is, hence where he was coming from.
A half an hour of Jacob and you joking around like children, acting like ninjas in the hallways; you two made it to the front part of the building with fans scattered around. It was obvious that Jacob couldn't just walk through, well with speculation by your side.
"FOLLOW ME" Jacob gestures and runs back down the hallway but to the right. How did he know this place already so well?
To and up an elevator you two went up to the top floor where the arena was, it was becoming filled with people and soon to be a time where everyone needed to take their place; i.e. Jacob leaving to backstage.
"Well, my friend. I'll message you the meeting place and I'll meet you there, it may take a while though because we have to go outside but I mean, get something to eat and hang out with some merch guy. I bid you farewell." Jake smiles as he bows.
"Break a leg and remember row 13, seat 49." You curtsy and Jake leaves through a door and you retrace your tracks.
Throughout the show you have a minor dose of déjà vu. You however end up sitting between a (must be) 50 year old, 6 foot tall, burly and bearded man and a young 15 year old.
"So, I didn't want to say anything but someone took pictures of Jacob one day last summer at a fair with a girl and you look really a like to her. Please do take that as I compliment because I mean it nicely because this mystery girl looked really pretty." The teenager girl smiles awkwardly with her braces and with her blue eyes studying your face.
You smile widely. "I don't think I've seen that photo but thank you."
"Oh! I have it on my instagram- here." She pulls out her phone trying to find the photo. Minutes later and she shows you a photo of where it was you and Jacob standing in line at the fair. You try to suppress your laugh, making you sound giggly.
"Thank you." You smile.
The lights begin to dim somewhat and everyone starts to scream.
"It's only the first opening act, calm down." The man sat beside you exhales loudly, you look slightly next to the man to see as well as hear two young teenagers bouncing around cheering.
"I think you signed up for the wrong concert." You nudge, jokingly as well as nervously.
The man remarks, "I think I should have stayed in the car."
