living on the edge

Chapter 5: Magcon Day One

It was only about ten minutes after trying to fall sleep that I realized I was tossing and turning the whole time. I sighed and sat up looking at Mahogany who was passed out with her head into the pillows. I grabbed my phone and texted Cam hoping he was still up.

iMessage

Hey, you still awake?

iMessage

Cameron Dallas: I am, the guys aren't though. Can't you sleep?

iMessage

No, Mahogany is snoring crazy loud. haha

I didn't hear back from him after that, so I thought maybe he fell asleep until I heard a light knock at the door. My pajamas were just a navy blue t-shirt with a black cami underneath it, and black and white sport shorts. I opened the door to see Cameron standing there with the biggest smile on his face. "Come on." he whispered grabbing my hand. We snuck back into his room and he grabbed a bag of chips and two foldable chairs.

"Where are we going?" I asked as we quickly walked up a few flights of stairs. "You'll see." he winked opening a grey door. I walked through with him behind me. He took me onto the roof of the hotel. The city was lit up with cars and buildings and the night sky. We sat on the chairs that we brought up and ate the barbeqcue chips. "It's so pretty up here." I said peering over the ledge of the roof. "How'd we even get access to this?" "Bart got us the key before we came." Cameron told me shoving a hand full of chips in his mouth. I laughed.

Cam: "You ready for tomorrow?"

I thought about going on stage, and meeting fans, and acting silly.

"I'm excited, yet really nervous. What if I mess up or something?"

Cam: "You're not going to. Once you get up there you'll be fine with all of us. And if you do, that makes it even more funny. Magcon isn't scripted, mistakes are the best."

I leaned over and rested my head on his shoulder. "Thanks Cam." I could tell he was smiling down at me when I said that. "Well well well, what do we have here?" a voice said from behind us. Cam and I looked back and saw Nash and Taylor walking out onto the roof. "Guys, can't you just leave us alone?" Cameron groaned. "I'm sorry, did we interupt something?" Taylor asked sarcastically. "Yeah, you kinda did-" I cut Cam off "No, you guys are fine. We should probably get some sleep though." I grabbed my chair. "Wasn't Mahogany snoring though?" Cameron asked walking to Nash and Taylor with me.

~Morning

beep beep beep. My annoying alarm went off at 6:00am. I turned it off and got out of bed, looking down at my hands I was literally shaking I was so nervous. My outfit for today wasn't fully planned out. So far I had on my ripped black shorts and black high-top converse. "What shirt should I wear?" I asked myself rummaging through my suitcase. "WAAAKE UP LEXEE." I heard Matt sing outside of my door. I laughed a little. "I'm up." I said opening the door.

I was still in my shirt I slept in. "I don't know what shirt to wear." "Where this." Matt said handing me a white t-shirt. I held it up & it said Jack&Jack in black writing. "We always wear each other's merch." "Thanks." I smiled. He left me alone to change into it. I put on my makeup and finished getting ready. It was already 6:30 by then, so I grabbed my phone and ran out into the hall to meet the rest of the guys.

Taylor was wearing his tie-dye muscle tee, Jack&Jack were wearing nashty shirts, Shawn was wearing a red Magcon sweatshirt, Carter was wearing a grey one, Nash was wearing just a plain blue tee, Matt was wearing a shirt that said 'Dallas' on the back, and Cameron was wearing my baseball tee that said Brooks on the back. I smiled and poked Cam on his back.
