Eleven o'clock rolled around faster than I anticipated. As we sprinted in and got assaulted with free things, Madi was dragging me to a green tent. Across it said: Warped YouTubers.

"Yay! Dude come on! No one is there! I'll never be able to meet these people EVER again! Please?" Madi is literally on her knees begging me. I roll my eyes, shove in my headphones and play Ritual by Black Veil Brides. Madi goes up and hugs a blond haired guy named Bryan, a blue haired guy named Jason, a guy in a beanie with Pokemon plugs named Damon, and a short dark haired boy named Johnnie.

"Ariel! Say hi and quit being an antisocial demon!" Madi yells for me to hear over my music. I roll my eyes and take out an earbud.

"I don't know who any of you are. But hi, I'm Ariel. You happy Mads?" I say.

"Yes. Good girl." She smiles. I turn back to my phone but before I do, I quickly notice that the boy Johnnie is staring at me. I give a brief smile and he looks away. That's the reason why I'm antisocial. I don't like people for starters and I always get weird looks or rude people who either stare or glare at me. So I ignore people and live my life in peace and quiet with my music.

"Ariel! Legitimately go say hi to them." Madi yanks out my headphones and shoves me forward into Bryan.

"Hi." I mutter.

"Hi there!" He gives me a big toothy smile which warms my heart instantly. A guy who really cares. He instantly hugs me and I laugh slightly before hugging him back. Then Jason and Damon come up and hug me and talk to me a little bit before I go to Johnnie. He smiles and blushes at me slightly. I give a shy smile.

"Hi." I say.

"Hey, Ariel. I'm Johnnie." He grins. He's a smile that literally shines brighter than even Bryan's. I give a little wave to break the awkward silence.

"No hug?" He pouts. I roll my eyes and give him a hug. He hugs me tightly.

"So what bands do you like?" He asks.

"Jesus Christ dude, never ask a girl that! We'll be here for an hour." I say. He laughs.

"Well, I've got plenty of time." He smiles.

"To name a few, I like Black Veil Brides, Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin, Rage Against The Machine, My Chemical Romance, Rise Against, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Metallica, The Who, Avenged Sevenfold, Deftones..." I trail off, blushing. He smiles.

"Those are some good bands! A variety of rock and metal." I play with my bangs, like I usually do when I'm awkward and or uncomfortable.

"Oh my god! Johnnie! Can I get a picture?"

"Yeah! Same! Could you sign my shirt?"

A group of annoying emo teens shove past me and into Johnnie, quite literally. I step back, shove my headphones in once again and strode off. My heart cracking a little at the disappointed look on his face.

Not like I'll see him again. Why should I care? He meets nice fans all the time. I'm sure he connects with other guys and girls the same way every day. Besides, he seems gay anyway.

I make up reasons in my head as I head over to the stage Black Veil Brides is playing at.

Yes I know Black Veil Brides isn't ACTUALLY playing at the 2014 Warped Tour but it's whatever. It's my fanfic so shushes yourself! Love ya 😘
