Only Average (EDITING)

Chapter ten

Marie's P.O.V

I wake up in my California king size mattress that is basically a cloud. It's one of those mattresses that you can sink into. The only thing I hate about this bed is the fact that I have to leave it every morning. I sit up sadly and stretch waiting for all of my joints in my arms and back to pop. Then I sleepily walk over to my over sized bathroom. I look in the mirror and I look so relaxed. I turn the shower on and take off my big UCLA t-shirt and underwear. The water gets hot quickly and I immediately put my shampoo in my hair rinse, the use conditioner. After that I pour body wash on my loofah and wash my body. Then I shave. I get out ten minutes later and grab my towel off the hook beside the shower.

When I'm done drying off my body I wrap it around me and walk out of the bathroom and back into my room. Sarah is laying on my bed reading this months Cosmopolitan. "Hey, bitch. What's the move for today?" She asks while flipping to the next page and making a face. Probably hating the outfit one of the models are wearing. "I don't know. What's your boy toy doing tonight?" I ask looking through my dresser looking for something comfy for today and if we end of doing something later I can always change. "He has a show tonight, are you interested in going?" She says while flipping the page again. I can tell that she really wants to go but is acting like she does'nt care. That's so cute I think to myself. "Sure, I could use a drink." I say with a shrug.

"Okay!" She says with clear joy in her voice. She claps her hands together and runs out of the room like she's being chased by someone. I giggle to myself and walk into the bathroom to dry my hair and put loose curls in it. I put on light makeup and my eyes are popping really well today. I walk to my closet and find my steel grey dress that fits my curves really well and falls just below my ass, it has zippers on the sides and two on the front. I match it with a studded belt and a leather jacket. And to pull it all together I put on my black stilettos with studs on the heels. I love this outfit, and let's face it I really need to meet a guy. It's getting pretty pathetic.

"Hey, when is the show?" I yell to Sarah which is in her room now. "It starts at seven, but the band does'nt go on until nine." She replies. Okay, cool that means that I don't have to put on that sexy but very uncomfortable dress until seven thirty. Which means I get to wear my sweats and a tank top all day I smile to myself.

A few hours later we were ready to go, Sarah is wearing one of the band shirts like a true groupie but she made some changes to it, she wears a size small but bought a size large and ripped up the back and made it fit like a dress to hug her curves, she put on leggings to go under it and put on some grey vans. She did her make up with smokey eyes and a lot of eye liner with fake eyelashes. She looked like a rock star. I put on my dress and did my make up with black and grey eye shadow to match my outfit. I re-did the curls to give it more volume and we both looked awesome. The last thing I did was rip up some black tights and put them on under the dress since it is November and in the sixties. We get in my car and I drive us to the venue. We park the car in this pay for parking thing right outside the venue.

We walk into the venue and it's weird but looks awesome. I like the darkness of it and the crowd is crazy, I like that there are four bars, Especially since there is so many people here. Yay for no lines! Speaking of which there is a lot of drugs here! Like holy shit, I can't even grasp how this place stays open and does'nt get shut down. I guess the cops don't care I think to myself. It's nine o'clock and the band is about to play, so I go grab a Strongbow from the bar and follow Sarah upstairs so we can watch the band without getting punched in the face in the mosh pit. It's fun to watch, but I'm assuming it's not fun to join. Once we take a seat in the front the announcer yells "Here is what you have all been waiting for! Are you ready to be mind fucked?" He screams at the crowd. And they all cheer loudly. "Here is Only Average!" Then he exists the stage and the curtains come up. Wow, this is so cool, Sarah and I can see everything and the band looks so awesome.

Once the band starts, the crowd starts moshing to the music It looks so intense, I'm so glad I brought my camera this is something that needs to be recorded. The whole time they were playing people were jumping off stage and hitting each other and it looked so hectic and crazy, but at the same time it looked like a really fun time. When the band was almost done Luke yells into the microphone while breathing really loudly and sweat is literally dripping off of him. God he looks so sexy. "Alright you motherfucker's! It's time for the circle of death! You should know what to do!" He screams as they start their last song. Almost everyone in the crowd is circling and hitting and punching everyone, it looks so brutal and awesome that I wish I was down there now. I can tell that the band loves this. When the music stops everyone starts cheering and asking for an encore. I can tell that the band is exhausted and Luke looks like he needs a drink. "You don't get an encore..." Luke says tiredly, and the crowd defiantly didn't like that. So everyone starts booing. "But you get to stay and party with the band all night!" Luke finishes. Well of course he would say that, anything to be able to not drink alone I'm assuming.

The band walks back stage and the crowd scatters to do their own thing, bathroom, drink, smoke outside whatever. So Sarah and I get up to walk down stairs when this really attractive guy walks up to me "Hey, I'm sorry. I don't normally do this but can I get you a drink and possibly learn your'e name? I just can't help my self." He says looking me up and down. Which is fine with me since this is the reason why I wore this dress."Sure, but only if you tell my your name first." I said with one of my seductive smiles. "It's Dylan" he says holding his hand out. "And your's?" he asks while I talk his hand to shake it. "Marie." I respond confidently. "That's a really good name" he says as he puts in hand on the small of my back leading me to one of the bars in the corner. Sarah comes up beside me and whispers in my ear "Looks like your taken care of for the moment, I'm going to go find my man." I nod an okay and with that she disappears in the sea of people.

I turn back to him and he is so tall that he makes me feel safe to be close to him, he has that swimmer type body and I wouldn't be surprised if he is one. He has the brightest blue eyes I have ever seen and amazing light brown hair. He is just really good looking, way too good looking for his own good. "So, what would you like to drink?" He asks with a very sexy smile. "Hmm... How about a long island ice tea?" I respond, hoping that it is a good choice. "Sounds good to me, I'll take two long island ice teas please?" He asks the bartender. Wow, he is slick. We make small talk while waiting for our drinks and then once we get them, we go back up stairs and sit to where we are looking over the entire venue. "So what brings you here tonight?" He asks while looking at me from across the table. "My friend, the one from earlier, her boyfriend is one of the bass players in the band that played last." I say while taking my first sip from my drink, god it's so good. I forgot how good it was.

"Oh, really? Only Average?" He says sounding impressed. "Yeah, we met them a few nights ago and they just kind of hit it off. I became friends with the lead singer Luke." I said while looking over the balcony. "So would he be jealous if he knew we were talking?" He asked looking at me with another one of his sexy smiles. "Ha ha, that's a good one. No we are just friends. He is a total player." I say with a smile. As I'm looking over the balcony, I see Serena the girl from yesterday morning and Luke talking at a table. He left for a second and I saw her pulling something out of her purse. What the fuck? She puts it in his drink before he returns and I don't think it's anything good. "I'm sorry Dylan but I'll be right back, I have to go check on my friend." I say with a worried expression. He caught on to my mood change and replied "Here, I'll come with you. " I nodded an okay.

And with that, we went down the stairs as fast as we could, which was really difficult since it was jam packed with people. When I finally got down the stairs it was too late, I watched him chug his drink from across the room. As tried to get across the room to help him, I was about twenty feet away when Serena and him hop up and go outside. Shit. Think fast, I tell myself. I practically run outside and I see the cab driving away. Dylan and I jump in this cab that just pulled up and I screamed "Follow that cab! And make sure you don't loose them!" The driver looked confused at first and then replied "Sure thing, lady."
