The next morning, I woke up to a text from Chris.

"Sorry I left without waking you up and telling you, you just looked so peaceful and rested. Anyway, last night was an amazing experience, and I mean it, I hope I didn't hurt you too bad ;)  when you wake up, me and the guys will be at this cool clothing store three blocks down from the hotel called "Vamps", hopefully you'll get to us before we leave. I love you. :*"

I smiled at the text and sat up slowly because my body was sore, especially my legs, from last night. It was wild and amazing, we went on for hours! Of course I was still naked so I dashed to the shower, changed into a skeletal black tank top, skinnies, vans, and a black beanie, flat ironed my hair, and did my make up, and headed out to find "Vamps" on the way there, I stopped by a cafe to grab a banana strawberry smoothie, and a muffin and continued my journey. I finally find it and enter the store. I was immediately addicted, they had everything there! Clothes, shoes, band merch, (especially MIW), make up, and sooo much more. I felt like I was in emo heaven. It took me awhile to find the guys, considering that the store is as big as half a mall! They were by the band merch. I hugged them all and asked what they were doing.

"Chris is trying to find a Bleeding Through jacket, he's been doing this for almost an hour now," Balz replied.

"You know, I don't understand why they have every other fucking band except bleeding through!" He says.

We all sigh and roll our eyes. Ricky's eyes grew big as he looked at my arms and shoulder blades.

"What the fuck happened to you?!" he says pointing at my skin. I look and sees the scratches that Chris left me from last night, Chris saw them and nervously bit his lip.

"uhh...they were from last night, when I was running...I fell into some bushes..." I lied.

" We didn't see them last night..." Ricky said suspiciously.

"Well, that's because they were fresh, now they're becoming clearer to see," I continued.

Ricky narrowed his eyes and then walked away from the group, wandering into the album section.

Chris finally found a Bleeding Through jacket and fangirled over it.

"I FINALLY FOUND IT, IT'S THE LAST ONE!!" he says as he walks for the check out counter.

Later that day, we were getting ready for our show at our last warped for the summer. After putting on the body paint and make up, Ricky pulled me to the side and quietly talked to me.

"So....have you thought about...us yet?"

Before I could speak, we were announced to be on stage, we ran behind the guys on to stage and played "Abigal", during the entire performance Ricky kept looking at me. I begin to feel bad again because he has deep emotions for me, and I'm not sure how I feel about him. I do like him. But I love Chris. I mean, I'm pretty sure I do. He makes me laugh, smile, he's such a sweet guy. I'm torn between the two. I immediately got irritated with my self, but I continued with the show. I looked out into the crowd and saw someone very familiar. I get closer to the edge to get a better look, the fans went crazy, I squinted my eyes and noticed that it was James! He flashed a huge smile at me, and waved wildly, giving me a thumbs up. I smiled at him. Chris and Ricky looked at me, then at James. They both looked jealous, I immediately walked away from the edge and did my usual back to back with Ghost, then we stood on the edge again.

The last song we played was Infamous. We all were sweaty and tired, but we kept going without slowing down. I looked out into the crowd again and watched James in the mosh pit. He looked like he was having so much fun. He eventually came back to the front, and cheered us on, keeping his middle finger up with the rest of the crowd. James and  smiled and Chris saw us again. After the song was over Chris made us stay on stage.

"Wait a minute, hold on," he spoke into the mic. We all looked at each other in confusion. He spoke into the mic again.

"I have an announcement to make to the fans, it's about me and Liz..."

he takes a deep breath, and hopes off the platform, bringing me closer to him, putting his hands behind my back and kisses me. The crowd went insane! He broke the kiss and smiled at ne me, then looked at me, then at James. James was still smiling, clapping and whistling. I looked over at Ricky. His arms dropped from his guitar, his face immediately turned pale, and ran off stage. Chris looked back confused after I ran after Ricky, telling him to wait up.
