HEY GUYS! I LIKE NORMAN REEDUS AND I LIKE BANDS,SO I THOUGHT WHY NOT WRITE A STORY INVOLVING THE TWO?! I HOPE YOU LIKE IT! C:
We finished the last concert of our tour and we were now out celebrating at some bar in L.A. "This was one of the best tours we've ever been on." Our Drummer,Vincent said. "Dude I totally agree." I said "haha just wait til' Warped Tour,victoria!" Our bassist Maryjane said as she nudged me playfully. "Let's make a toast,fuckers!" Our guitarist Jennifer said. "Wait wait wait!" Our Tour Manager,Jason said screaming and running towards us with a tray of drinks. He handed all of us our drink. "Alright alright time to make a toast!" Jason shouted. Almost everyone in the bar turned to face our table. "Here's to an amazing tour and many more to come!" Jason said. Everyone in the bar began clapping and cheering for us. We all raised out drink and cheered. After that,the night was full of laughs and chatter. We were talking to fans and taking pictures with people. It was amazing...a little overwhelming if you ask me. "Hey man!" Maryjane said,snapping me out of my thoughts. "Hey dude! Having fun?" I asked. "Yeah man,I've lost track of how much I drank." She said. "Haha you're gonna regret that later,Mj." I said patting her on the back. "I know dude." Mj said laughing. She then got up and left.
It was around 1 Am when we left the bar. "Alright guys,you've got flights back to New York tomorrow morning at 8,so get some sleep." Jason said. We all hugged each other and went into our hotel rooms. I was too exhausted to even change out of my clothes or shower. So I kicked my shoes off,set my alarm for 6 Am and went to sleep.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm going off. I dragged myself out of bed and took my clothes off to get in the shower. I let the water relax my muscles as I washed my hair and everything else and then stepped out. I wrapped a towel around my body as I walked over to my suit case to pick out my clothes for the flight. I ended up going with my black skinnies,my grey Real Friends shirt and my black and white vans. I let my brown hair air dry and fall loosely down my back. I finished packing all of my things and I checked the time. 7:00. I heard a knock on my door and opened it to see Vincent standing there with his suitcase. "Hey buddy,you ready?" He asked. "yeah dude." I said as I grabbed my suitcase,the room key and I closed the door. "Where is everyone else?" I asked as we made our way to the lobby. "umm everyone is checking out I think." Vincent said. "Ah. Okay...holy shit dude,I could really use some coffee." I said. "I know,man. I could too,you have no idea." vincent said while rubbing his temples. We made it down to the lobby and began checking out. We all piled into the taxi and began heading for L.A.X. "Seriously,no one talk to me until I've had my coffee." Mj said with her head in her hands. I leaned over to her and whispered "told ya so." With a smirk on my face. "Fuck you,man." Mj said as she laughed and shoved me.
We made it to L.A.X at 7:40. We took our bags out and headed straight for Starbucks. we ordered our drinks and we were now waiting for them. It was 7:50. "Guys we gotta go." Jason said starting to freak out "Jason calm down,dude. Haha we are gonna be fine." I said patting his shoulder. We were all picking up our coffee when we heard "Flight from L.A to New York is now boarding." On the intercom. "Shit!" Jennifer screamed as we all picked up out stuff and began running. We were all laughing and trying to keep up with each other. I tripped over Mj a few times because se was running so slow. We made it over and handed the lady our tickets. We walked onto the plane and began finding our seats. We all ended up sitting far apart from each other,which seriously sucked. I walked over to my seat and noticed a guy sitting in the seat next to mine. I awkwardly cleared my throat as I sat down. "hey,well it looks like we are gonna be flight partners today" I said laughing awkwardly. "I guess we are...um I'm norman." the guy said, with a raspy voice. "Hey,I'm victoria." I said smiling. This guy looked familiar but I couldn't really tell because he was wearing RayBans and a hat. I began to buckle up my seatbelt and I noticed the guy staring at me. It made me nervous and I didn't know what to do so I ended up making a fool of myself by giving him a childish smile. He laughed while buckling his seatbelt. He took off his hat and glasses then looked at me. Oh shit. Dude...that's Norman Reedus haha. "Oh dude I know you. You're on the walking dead." I whispered. Norman gave me a panicked look. I couldn't help but laugh. "Haha dude,don't worry I'm not gonna flip shit on you or anything...trust me I know the feeling." I said as I put my hand on his shoulder. The panicked look on Norman's face went away. "really,how so? He asked with a smirk. "Oh well I'm in a band." I said with a smile. "Really?! That's rad! What's the name of your band?" He asked. "Umm our band is called 'Hearts At Home'" I said shyly. "That's cool,vic...where's the rest of the band?" norman asked with a grin on his face. I looked down and blushed "they're up there." I said pointing to the row all the way in the front. "We all kinda got split up. Haha" I said. "Wow, now all of you are heading to New York?" Norman asked. "Yeah,we just finished our tour last night." I said proudly. "That's pretty cool." He said. After than we stood silent and listened to the pilot speak on the intercom,letting us know that we were now taking off.
We were now in the air and me and Norman began talking again. "so you live in New York?" Norman asked. "Yep!...so why are you going to New York?" I asked. "Umm I live there and I am going to a convention to do a signing/meet and greet." He said. "Sounds fun." I said,chuckling. "It is. You should come! You know,visit me and stuff" Norman said,laughing. "Haha maybe I will!" I said. "Promise?" Norman said with his pinky out and a smirk on his face. I sighed and playfully rolled my eyes "fine." I said as I interlocked his pinky with mine. "I'm gonna hold you to that." Norman said. I laughed and shook my head.
I took out my song writing journal and began writing something I had thought of.
'Well I'm so tired if the rain
Falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet
But not enough to let me drown'
I felt a pair of eyes on my and I looked up to see norman staring at my journal. He looked up and me smiled "you're a great writer" he said "ehh it's nothing." I said shrugging my shoulders. "May i?" norman asked gesturing to my journal. "Sure." I smiled pushing my journal over to him. He took it and started reading all of my lyrics. "Hey,what is this one about?" He asked pointing to one of my songs. I looked over at the journal. "Oh,Bulletproof Love?" I asked. "Yeah." He said. "Umm it's about my ex boyfriend..haha." I said awkwardly. "Oh. These lyrics are pretty deep." Norman said. "Yeah I know..haha." I noticed our heads were really close to each other,i looked up and saw mj smirking at me. She started making kissie faces at me and I gave her the 'Can You Not?' face. After a few minutes of him looking through it he handed it back to me and asked "you wrote all of this?" "Some of it,yeah...some of these I write with my band mates." I said fiddling with my pen. "It's really good." He said,smiling. "Thanks....Enough about me,tell me some things about yourself,norm." I said nudging him. He giggled. "There's not much to tell." He said rubbing the back of his neck. "Of course there is! There's always something to tell! Ou know,what kind of cereal do you like to eat?,what's your favorite animal?,stuff like that!" I said "okay well,I'm Norman. I play Daryl Dixon on The Walking Dead,i have a son named Mingus,my bestfriend is my black cat,I live in New York,I like to eat chocolate and I love South Park." He said chuckling. "Alright that's good! I said laughing. "Wait wait wait! Now it's your turn!" Norman said. "Fine fine!" I said. "Okay,I'm Victoria,I'm the lead singer in a band called 'Hearts At Home,I too live in New York,I have a grey cat,I love to play instruments,and I like to buy jars of applesauce." I said proudly. The last one made Norman burst into laughter. I couldn't help but laugh with him.
For hours We began playing little games like 20 questions,Rock paper scissors,thumb wars and I spy. We were laughing and having fun.Norman is adorable,he's like a kid at heart and I loved that.i think I like him.I looked over at Norman and he was fast asleep. I felt my eyes getting heavy and I eventually fell asleep.
"Hey,vic...wake up." Norman whispered. I opened my eyes and stretched. "Are we landing?" I asked. "Yeah in like,5 minutes." He said. "Okay." I said. I started putting all of my stuff away in my bag. We started landing. "Well this is probably one of the most fun flights I've ever been on." Norman said. "Oh you are very welcome,norman." I said playfully. Norman laughed. We landed and began to walk off the plane. My band mates made it out before I did so I walked with norman. He put his shades and hat on and we walked to the baggage claim together. "Hiding from paparazzi?" I asked. "Pretty much haha" norman said. A bunch of people were crowding around Norman and I and were snapping pictures of us. "Oh god,this flash is killing me." I said as I was covering my eyes. Norman then pulled out another pair of shades and handed them to me. "Thanks" I said as I put them on. I grabbed my suitcase as Norman Grabbed my hand and said "c'mon." The paparazzi started snapping pictures of Norman and I holding hands. I was definitely gonna see that on the internet later. Norman and I made it outside and began waiting for a taxi. "So I'll see you...whenever this convention is?" I asked. Norman smiled at me and said "haha lets see,today is Friday...sooo I'll see you on Sunday." "Haha alright." I said. A taxi pulled up and Norman let me take it. "See you Sunday." I said as I got into the taxi. "See ya then,babe!" Norman said as he closed the door. Holy crap did he just call me 'babe'? After the few seconds of me fan girling,I told the taxi driver my address and he began driving.
