Bad Habit // Machine Gun Kelly

Chapter 3

"You ready?" Paisley asked me.

"I don't know what to wear dude." I replied.

"Wear something hot like you did last night except it's a concert so not a dress." Sam replied. I nodded, looking through my clothes. We had an hour till we had to leave. I already had my makeup on and I took a shower. I just need an outfit. Paisley picked out an outfit and threw it on my bed. It was a black lace bralette, black shorts, and a red flannel. I put it on as Paisley threw me my black heeled boots that I always wear.

"That's good." Paisley said.

"I like it." Sam said.

"I love it." Christian said from behind them. We all turned to him.

"When did you get here?" I asked.

"Just now, but you look hot." He said. I rolled my eyes walking past him.

"Lets go." I said, grabbing the keys to my jeep.

We walked into the building with our VIP tags on. A security guard led us all backstage to wear Colson, Rook and his crew were sitting in a room.

"You have guests." The man told them. They all looked up. Colson smiled walking up to us.

"Hey, Rachael right?" He asked. I nodded with a smile, trying not to completely fangirl. He pulled me into a hug. "How was your birthday?" He asked.

"Honestly, the best because I got this." I replied. His smile grew.

"That's good." He said. He then greeted Christian, Sam and Paisley as Rook walked up to me.

"I'm JP or Rook." He greeted with his hand out.

"Rachael." I replied, putting my hand in his.

"I know, Colson wouldn't shut up about you since he saw you." He said, whispering the last part so no one else could hear. I could feel my face growing red. That's what happens when I'm embarrassed or nervous.

"Really?" I asked. He nodded. I greeted the rest of his crew before Colson turned to all of us.

"We're about to smoke, you wanna join us?" Colson asked us. I nodded.

"I'll join." I replied, sitting next to Rook.

"I'm good." Sam replied.

"I'll join." Christian said.

"Me too." Paisley said. Sam wasn't a smoker. Even though the rest of us smoked, she didn't. Weirdo.

"Let's see who can out smoke who." Colson said, looking at me.

"You're on." I replied. We all took turns lighting it and passing it around till Christian stopped first.

"I'm good." He said. We all laughed.

"Baby lungs." I muttered.

"Hey this used to be you till we hung out more." He told me. I rolled my eyes hitting the bong again.

"Colson, you're on in 5." The security guard told him. He nodded.

"You guys can watch the concert from backstage or go out to the crowd and sit front row." He told us.

"Let's go sit front row." Paisley said. I nodded.

"You guys can come back when the shows over and we can finish this." He told us, motioning to the bong. I nodded.

"We will." I said. The security guard walked us out and we followed him to the front row where we had to squish in.

The concert started and the first song that he sang was Rap Devil. Then GTS, going through all of the songs of Binge and some songs from Bloom. Throughout the concert he would stare at me and wink here and there. The last song was 27 which I started crying during because it's an emotional song. Colson saw and jumped down from the stage as the song was coming to an end and used his thumb to wipe the tear away. We just looked at each other for a minute before he got back on stage.

"Thank you guys for being a great show! I love you all!" He yelled, walking off of the stage.

"What just happened?" Christian asked me. I shrugged.

"I don't even know." I replied.

"I don't feel good." Paisley said, holding her stomach.

"We should take her home." Sam said. I nodded.

"Just let me say bye to Colson." I replied.

"No you shouldn't have to leave because of me. This is your one shot to hang out with your idol." Paisley said. I shook my head.

"Maybe I'll get his number." I said, walking backstage. I found the room that they were all in and knocked on the door. A shirtless Colson opened the door.

"Hey." He smiled. "Where's your friends?" He asked.

"Yeah Paisley doesn't feel good so I'm gonna take her home." I replied. His smile faded.

"Yeah I hope she feels better. It was nice meeting you." He told me. I nodded with a smile.

"You too. Thank you for probably the best night of my life." I said. He smiled. I walked to my car where everyone was waiting for me. Before I got in, we heard yelling.

"What's that?" Sam asked. I shrugged. I closed my car door, starting the car as someone knocked on the window. I looked and it was Colson. I rolled down the window.

"Colson? Are you okay?" I asked. He nodded, panting.

"Your number. I want it." He said.

"Well that's a way to ask for someone's number." I joked. I grabbed a pen and Colsons hand, writing my number on his hand. "Text me." I said. A smile formed on his perfect face as he backed up from the car so I could drive home.
