I sat backstage at my older cousin's concert, feeling bored out of my mind.
It's my 19th birthday, and my cousin Max refuses to let me do anything I actually want.
He's more protective of me than my parents are!
But then, it might have something to do with the fact I have a major crush on the lead singer of his band: Craig Mabbitt.
At this particular moment, I'm just watching them play from offstage. They're playing Picture Perfect, and then they've got one last song, which is You Are So Beautiful.
When they finished the song, Craig stopped to address the crowd, so I brushed the bangs of my firey red hair side to get a better look.
"Alright you guys, we've got one more song for you tonight!" Craig shouted.
The audience gave out a mix of boos and cheers, and Craig chuckled. "All great things must come to an end!" he smirked, making me giggle.
"For this last song, I want someone to come join me on this stage." he announced, "She's a good friend of all of ours, and I want you all to meet her."
Craig turned to face me. "Destiny! Come on out here birthday girl!"
The crowd started cheering, and I could feel butterflies gnawing away at my stomach as I hesitantly made my way over to him.
Craig pulled me to sit on a platform with him, and I felt Max's eyes burning into my back.
"Hope you all like this song!" Craig grinned, then started singing, keeping his arm around my waist the entire time.
I could have found
A better way
You know I never
Should have stayed
I could have done
The things that I believed
Were wrong
(You know you're wrong)
Now you're saying that it's late
It doesn't matter what I say
You know you're just another
One of my mistakes
Ahhh
You are so beautiful
You are the kind of girl
That has the chemicals
That makes me fall in love
Beautiful
You are the kind of girl
That has the chemicals
That makes me fall in love
So now I'm feeling
Like a slave
I'm locked away
Inside this grave
And now I'm hoping for a way
I can be saved
(I can't be saved)
You know that there
Will come a day
When I'm just gonna
Have to change
You know you're just another
One of my mistakes
Ahhh
You are so beautiful
you are the kind of girl
That has the chemicals
That makes me fall in love
Beautiful
You are the kind of girl
That has the chemicals
That makes me fall in love
You know I found
A small paper
You lied about
You lied about
You know I found
A small paper
You lied about
You lied about
You lie to me
Lie to me
You are so beautiful
You are the kind of girl
That has the chemicals
That makes me fall in love
Difficult
So very typical
You are the kind of girl
That makes me fall in love
Fall in love
The crowd cheered like crazy when the song ended, and Craig hugged me. "Happy birthday, Destiny." he whispered sweetly.
"Thanks." I blushed, hugging him back. "Goodnight everybody!" he shouted into the mic, then led me and the guys offstage.
Craig pulled me aside, asking to talk to me. "What's up?" I asked shyly once we were alone.
"I um, I wanted to tell you something..." he told me awkwardly, "Destiny, I um... I like you." he admitted, his cheeks turning pink.
I smiled at him and hugged him tightly. "I like you too." I confessed, kissing his cheek and pulling away.
His arms snaked around my waist to pull me back, making me giggle. "Destiny, will you be my girlfriend?" he asked hopefully, and I nodded.
"Of course I will."
Craig smiled largely and lightly pressed his lips to mine, just in time to hear Max yelling, "CRAIG WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!"
Max stomped over to us, and my happiness was erased, replaced by anger and frustration.
"What the fuck do you two think you're doing?!" Max growled at us.
"Converting oxygen into carbon dioxide." I replied sarcastically, smirking at him.
His face literally turned red with rage, and I honestly thought steam was about to start shooting out his ears like a cartoon character.
"You!" he hissed, pointing a finger at Craig, "I told you hands off my cousin, she is off fucking limits!"
Craig stammered, searching for the right words to say, but I stepped up. "You're not my dad, you don't get a say, Max.
"If you really care, you'll be happy that I'm happy." Max opened his mouth to speak, then shut it when he realized I was right.
"Whatever." he muttered, storming away. I giggled at him, then turned back to Craig. "So, where were we?"
