Started with a Dare

Started with a Dare • 2 years later...

I'm getting ready for my show tonight. Oh I didn't tell you? Well let me fill you in. I live in LA by myself and I'm currently on tour getting ready for my last show. Atlantic Records is my label and if you're waiting for me to talk about Jack, well it's not gonna happen. I decided to move on fro Jack, I was getting tied up in that situation so I just dropped it. I'm in the costume changing for my show tonight. I finally pick out something and change into it.

I got my hair and makeup done and went to warm up my voice. I had some new friends that came on tour with me, they're not performing or anything they're just here to keep my company. I have my friend Lauren, Lisa, and Marcus. Marcus and I are together, we've been dating for a year now. Today's our one year anniversary and I think he forgot. I kinda pushes that to the side for now. I grabbed my mic and the music started to play, everything turned off. The music, the lights, I got on stage and got ready. The music started again and the lights turned on, as I started singing. The fans went crazy and to be honest, I was surprised that they new all the lyrics to my songs. I was singing one of my songs that's basically about how it's so hard to find love without getting hurt, I wrote this song when I was in the Jack situation. I felt weird as I was singing this song, a familiar pair of eyes on me coming from the crowd. I walked around on the stage to see if I could find the spot I felt it most, it was coming from the front near the left side. I look around in that area and find the pair of eyes. The ones I loved, the ones that caused me pain, the ones that made me who I am today. Jack. I felt a sharp pain in my chest but I continued with the show. The show is almost over and I only have one more song to sing. I'm talking to the fans through the mic and all of a sudden I hear a guitar start playing, I got confused. I looked around and saw Marcus coming out on the stage walking towards me, while playing the guitar. He started to sing and I teared up, I thought he forgot. I felt so bad cause earlier, I was ignoring him. To be honest I didn't feel the same way I did when I met him, but I didn't want to hurt him. I go to him as he finishes the song. I give him a big hug and gave him a kiss on his cheek. 

Marcus: y/n....

You: yes baby?

Marcus: this year has been the best year of my life, and I want to be with you forever

You: Mar-

Marcus: no listen. I love you so much and I don't want to loose you

You: Marcus!

I could tell he was shocked that I yelled, his never heard me yell before.  

You: listen Marcus you're a nice guy and any girl would be lucky enough to have you, but that girl isn't me...

Marcus: what are you saying?  

You: Marcus...I'm breaking up with you...

Marcus: w-what? is there someone else?

You: no I'm just not feeling the connection we had when we met

Marcus: Oh o-ok 

He had tears in his eyes and walked off stage. Good thing the fans didn't hear anything. I walk back over closer to the fans and continued the show. I finished the show and went back to my lounge room, I got ready for the meet and greet. I changed and touched up my hair and makeup.

I went to the meet and greet area, I saw a huge line of fans waiting for me. I started the meet and greet and I got loads of gifts, took so many fun pictures. It was so fun until one point. Jack he was in the line with his friends, him and his friends were next in line. He looked horrible as if he got hit by a bus. He looked pale, really pale. He looks like he hasn't eaten in a while. Him and his group of friends came to me and he stayed quiet and stayed away from me, I grabbed his hand and pulled him into a hug. Honestly I missed him, I missed being in his arms. I whispered in his ear.

You: Hi Jack

Jack: hi y/n...

You: I missed you a lot

Jack: I missed you too

You: can I ask you something?

Jack: sure

You: why are you so pale?

Jack: me and my girlfriend got into an argument and I haven't eaten in days

I pull away from the hug in shock.

You: you have a girlfriend?

Jack: yea I do

You: oh

Jack: maybe you can meet her sometime here I'll give you my number and we can maybe plan something

You: great can't wait

I laughed awkwardly and we took a few pictures together. Soon enough the meet and greet was finally over I went back to my lounge room and changed into my hoodie and just some underwear. Me, Lauren and Lisa ran out to my tour bus and got in. Lisa told me that Marcus got a flight home. I've told the girls about what happened at the meet and greet with Jack, and they already know about them. I told them when we became friends. Me and the girls hung out at the front of the bus.

Lauren: you should text him

You: I'm not gonna text him 

Lisa: text him

You: I'm not gonna text him

Lauren: come on a girl, he's your high school crush

You: yea high school not now, plus he has a girlfriend

Lisa: you know what I'm texting him for you

Lisa snatched my phone out of my hands and started texting him, I got kinda pissed off but then again I would've never done it so I'm glad she did it. Me and Lauren huddled around Lisa waiting for a respond.

Lauren: look he replied

Lisa: he said 'Hey, wanna come meet my girlfriend this tomorrow?'

You: tell him I'm busy

Lisa instead of texting what I asked her to text, she texted back saying ' sure'. I looked at her and she started running to the back of the bus as I ran after her. Lauren stayed back laughing her butt off and I tackled Lisa.
