The Vampire Chronicles

Chapter 13

Everyone was crowded back stage cheering on Cyndy. She was about to perform live for the first time ever and she was freaking out. "Calm down! You will be fine. You play amazingly. Just stop over thinking this!" Dj said handing her one of his guitars. "Ready? Here we go!" Michael shouted as he ran onstage. "Don't worry you will do amazing. I taught you well! Make me proud!" I said hugging her and made the rock n roll symbol with my hand. Dj and Aaron ran onstage and Cyndy took a long deep breath. "Everyone welcome the love of my life and our new guitar player. Cyndy!" Michael yelled. The crowd bursted into screams and cheers. Michael began to sing "Kiss of Death." Cyndy began playing and immediatly got into it. Ben and I were jamming out back stage. "She is doing great!" Ben said as he held me tightly. "I'm so proud!" I said to him. The concert was almost over and Michael started singing "Unholy Eyes" for the closing song. He looked at Cyndy the entire time he was singing. She smiled and blushed and mouthed "I love you." to him. At the end of the song and as everyone cheered Michael held Cyndy close and kissed her. Cyndy quickly kissed back and smiled big. "HAVE A GREAT NIGHT COLORADO!" Michael yelled. Everyone in VE shouted and ran off stage. I pulled Michael aside for a quick minute. "You doing it tonight?" I asked quietly. "Of course I am. Thanks for helping me pick it out." Michael said as he quickly hugged me. He ran over to Cyndy and picked her up over his shoulder. "Dammit Michael! I hate when you do this to me!" Cyndy screamed playfully. "Come on everyone. Put some nice clothes on. It's date night." Michael announced still carrying Cyndy. "WHAT?! A suprise date night? Why do you not warn me of this stuff?" Cyndy asked excitedly. "Hush. I just told you. That counts for a warning." Michael said to her laughing. He let Cyndy down and she dug through her bags looking for the perfect outfit.

"Put something really nice on. Tonight is going to be a huge night." Ben said sweetly to me. I went into the bathroom with my clothes I picked out and looked in the mirror. I wiped off all the make-up from earlier. I picked up my curling iron and set it on high. I began to curl my hair strand by strand. Ben never saw my hair curled and I hoped he liked it. I finished my hair and applied my make-up. I put a very thin streak on eye liner on the top and bottom of my eye. I added a glitterly white eye shadow to my eye lid. I applied a very light red lip gloss just enough to make my lips pop. I added some blush and my make-up was done. I put on a long red dress. It had black leopard print in some spots. It had some silver Fleur de lis on it. Ontop of that it had some gold sequences on it. It came all the way down passed my feet and touched the floor. It tied around my neck and had red and black beads that looked like a necklace to hold the dress in place. I put on my black stileto heels and looked in the mirror. I smiled lightly and walked out to the living room of the tour bus. I saw Ben wearing a black and red suit.

 Meanwhile on the VE tour bus "Put something on beautiful baby. Tonight will be a big night and I want you to look extra nice." Michael said before Cyndy went into the bathroom. She applied a thin streak of eye liner on her top and bottom eye. She put on a clear but glittery lip gloss. She added very little blush and a light silver eye shadow that was also glittery. She had her hair up in a ponytail and it was curled. She had a small bump before the ponytail to add volume and elegance. She put on her long black dress. It had small, thin straps that went around her neck to hold up the dress. On those straps were silver diamonds leading all the way to the back and to the front of her dress. Where the straps came down was a huge oval diamond. Off the bottom of the diamond was a couple of beaded strands. On those were silver and black beads. She put on her stileto heels and looked long in the mirror. "Cyndy your beautiful." She told herself. She walked slowly and made her way down the hall. She heard faint whispers and she walked into the living room. Michael wore a black and white suit and looked at Cyndy. He smiled sweetly and looked at her for a long time. "You look breath taking Cyndy." Michael barely said. He was speechless. "You look amazing yourself Michael." She smiled as she walked to him. Michael took her hand and lead her off the bus. Aaron and Dj wished them luck and shut the door behind them.
