The crowd was still roaring by the time they had ran off stage.Tay was buzzing with adrenaline from head to toe, and found it impossible to stop shaking from shock and exhilaration. Cameron and Mike were bro fisting each other while Jordan and Rob were engaged in a painful looking embrace. It was their first ever time headlining the world famous Reading festival in England and there was no denying it had been a huge success. From start to finnish, the crowd was gripping onto every single word that came from Tay's mouth. They had every single person bouncing up in down in sync during 'The best thing (that never happened)' and roaring to the chorus of 'Long live the kids'. Tonight, Tay had never felt more invincible.
'Oh my fucking god! That was insane!' yelled Cameron is he barreled towards Tay and lifted her in up the air by her waist. She laughed then threw her hands in the air and tilted her head back; 'READING, WE FUCKING LOVE YOU!' The band membors whooped in joy as Cameron put her down on the ground.
'That was one of the best nights of my life, i couldn't even hear the music when they were singing along to 'Long live the kids' and I shit you not, I swear i saw some girls flashing me' babbled Cameron. Mike laughed and replied 'In your dreams, gayboy! I saw them too and I'm pretty sure it was for me since they were staring DIRECTLY into my eyes', Cameron rolled his eyes, 'You seriously calling me gay? You suck so many dicks a day that I'm surprised your saliva hasn't turned into semen'.
The guys roared with laughter as Mike rolled his eyes. 'Well why don't you check out my saliva then, Dickwad?' and with that he spat onto Cameron's pristine white converse. Cameron lept back and started swearing in anger while Mike pointed his middle finger at him. Tay rolled her eyes and retreated before things got out of control.
The air was as cool as a sheet of ice when Tay made her way down the stairs of the main stage. It was amazing how all the heavy machinery involved at festival concerts created so much heat. It was like a sauna when the group was on stage, with the thousands of volts of electricity travelling around enourmous speakers stood one on top of the other and massive strobe lights that went off around them after a drum or guitar solo. The sky began spitting little drops of rain onto Tay's jacket. She took her Iphone out and dialed the number for her parents house back in America. It took a few seconds before someone picked up.
'hello?' said a croaky voice from the other side.
'Hey Gran! It's Taylor', she smiled into the reciever.
'Honey! We've been missing you so much! Your parent's have gone out for brunch so you'll have to try them later. How's the tour going for you?'.
'It was so rad! We were headlining at the Reading festival. I just came off stage a few seconds ago. It was literally one of the sickest shows we ever played!'
Tay heard a crackled laugh from her Gran. 'I'm so glad your enjoying yourself out there. I hope you wore some ear protection. With those stupendiously loud speakers, I'm surprised you even have your hearing to this day!'
Taylor rolled her eyes. 'Yes Gran. We have earpieces that we wear on stage. I told you that like a thousand times!' Tay recalled one time that she stupidly invited her grandparents along to one of her shows in Pensylvania, and they had to leave ten mintues into the set because ' The music was so loud, i thought an earthquake was about to occur'. Since then, Gran was always nagging her on the volume of their concerts and to wear ear protection.
'I'm only trying to look out for you honey. I'm so sorry Taylor, but i gotta go. I need to pick your Grampa up from golf. I'll tell your mom to call you when she gets home. Have fun and don't make bad choices!'.
'Bye Gran' Tay whispered as the line went still. She felt a small lump form at the back of her throat as she thought of her Gran, driving in her old Ford pick up to collect her white haired Grandad.
Tay's finger hovered over the 'call' button on her phone, where the contact name read 'MY SUPA SXY BFF-EX GF. Tay wasn't in denial that everything in the contact name was true.
Yes, she personally thought Jenna was one of the most effortlessly sexy human beings on the planet and that you didn't have to be attracted to women to recongise that.
Yes, Jenna was also Tay's best freind and Tay was hers. They had instantly clicked when they met at the Warped Tour four years ago and had been inseparable up til now.
And yes, there has been some complicated history between the two singers a couple of years ago.
