Max’s P.O.V.
My stomach growls, I could really go for a hoagie right now. Nah, pizza sounds better.
“Hey! Where have you been?!” Craig yells. “Come on let’s go have some fun! Lots of sexy girls around here! Let’s go check out the band currently playing first, before we play. Ha heh heh. Too bad I really can’t play though,” he frowns.
“Ugh..” Not that I didn’t mind, just I really have the munchies right now. I guess that’ll have to wait huh? “I’m starved dude, can’t I go eat first!?”
“We’ll grab a bite later! Let’s go! That band Ascensions is playing and I heard they’re fucking good. A female vocalist, aye Max.” Craig winks and shoves his elbow into Max’s side. That’s right I have her phone. A grin appears on Max’s face.
“Let’s go then! What are we waiting for!?” Max says with a sudden change of mood. They head off into the direction of the large screaming crowd and instruments playing. Max walking with whatever devious plan may be on his mind.
Lyly’s P.O.V.
Music and the loud screaming fans filled the air. It was a beautiful sound. It was something she always dreamed of. I was singing our last song for the day, it was so hot and I could feel the sweat dripping from my back. Something caught the corner of my eye when I was singing. Right behind the huge stereo away from the view of the crowd was the one and only standing there dangling something towards me with a smirk on his face. It was a phone. It looked familiar. I could see Craig poking his side saying something, I don’t know what. I turned my face back to the crowd, I need to focus. Our fans are going to end up thinking I have problems if I keep singing while facing the stereo. Better yet, they’ll probably figure out someone is there and will try and see who. The people to my right have a good view as it is, who knows if anybody noticed. I couldn’t help turn my head again in his direction and see him still dangling a phone and smirking. What the fuck? This guy must have issues. HA! ISSUES. I see now. Hahaha, I laugh in my mind. Then the laughter disappeared completely. The phone lit up and I could see a picture of me. It was my background. Without thinking I accidently spoke a little loud into the mic, “My phone!!” Without thinking I looked to Matt, who was still playing the guitar but looked back at me weird. The rest of the band was looking at me like I’m insane. Except for Brandon, he wasn’t looking at me at all. Some fans were cheering at my sudden outburst, I have no idea why and some were giving me that ‘what the f is wrong with you look.’ The rest were just waiting for me to continue singing. My face was flushed red. Right away I thought of a plan to not make me look insane. I spoke into the mic. “Ha ha ha guys, I’m certain you guys know Max Green!!” I shot a look in Max’s direction. Max was gasping. Hahahaha, yup, oh yes I did Max. I am going to do just what you may be thinking! “See my buddy Max dared me to say something random on stage near the end of the song and well, come on Max, come on out! You should try and sing the rest of this song with me. You said you wanted to! Folks this is my surprise to you!” With an evil smile I watched as he approached and the crowd had gone wild. I grabbed Terrence’s mic and handed it out to him. I felt so high and mighty.
Max P.O.V.
No she fucking didn’t! My mouth was thrown wide open by the sudden surprise she shot me with. The other side of the crowd has noticed me. I guess there’s no choice now huh? I walked over to her and made sure to give her an ‘I’m pissed’ look. I shove her phone in my pocket and take the mic from her hand. I clear my throat. “Hi guys! What a PLEASURE to be here right now. This band is truly amazing. I love their songs. Really. Al-“ I was suddenly interrupted.
“OH! He sure loves our songs! Isn’t he so kind! Now what’s your favorite song of ours?!” At this point she had a huge smile on her face. Okay, I got this! She thinks she can embarrass me in front of all these people, nope I don’t think so!
“My favorite song is actually this one! It’s so sad because you stopped singing! I like this song man, how dare you interrupt it! Come on guys, sing along with the song, girl why don’t you and the crowd start off!” With that, I let out a laugh. I have won. Her band starts playing and she starts to sing and the crowd is following along and thankfully I was here and listening to the chorus earlier so I know the words. She has that hopeful look on her face as if she doesn’t realize yet that she’s already lost this mini battle. I start to scream the lyrics into the mic. I turned to her and this time she did realize. Screaming/growling is very much a form of singing.
Lyly P.O.V.
We had finished and I was following Max, while the band packed up. I had told them that he had my phone and that I was going to go get it back. I tap Max on the shoulder when I caught up to him. I could hear him and Craig whispering. I clear my throat. “Ahem!” Max and Craig turn around.
Craig looks at Max and smirks, “I think I’ll go head up with the others in our bus eh.” He winks. I roll my eyes when he walks away, due to the fact that he was thinking of us like that.
“I think that there’s something you need to hand back to me!”
“Hm.. Something I need to hand back to you?” He puts his pointer finger to his head with a smirk. “Doesn’t ring a bell.” His hair was weirdly beautiful. Everything about this guy seemed beautiful to me. Something like a dream. Just as fast as my breathe was taken away, I snap back to reality.
“I don’t see why you’re doing this. Now can you please give me back my phone!”
“Aw, a little eager aren’t we?” He laughs. “What if I were to send some of the pictures you have on this to all your contacts?”
“What?! NO! Give me back my phone dam it! Don’t you dare send any of my photos out!”
“Afraid you’ll be seen for what you really are?”
“Give it to me! Where is it?”
“You have photos no one should see don’t you?” He smiles slightly.
“You looked through my photos didn’t you! Mind your damn business. “My face flushes red. This bastard! I could feel the heat of my face and knew instantly I looked like a tomato.
He smirks and bends down closer to me, his face only centimeters away from mine. “Ah.” He whispers. “So you HAVE been doing naughty things. What a naughty girl.” I can feel his breathe against my ear now. I don’t know how long I was left in a daze. But all of a sudden there was a small crowd around us asking for pictures and autographs and screaming “I love you.” “Marry me.” I come back to reality once again. I look his way and he has a smirk while signing an autograph, he turns to me and winks. Now I’m pissed! I turn away and begin giving autographs and taking pictures as well. When it was all done I had head back to our bus. I was greeted by a drunk Terrence.
“Oooh hey! You’re back!” He just about yells. Damon and Matt are sitting on the couch. I could hear moaning from the bunk room. Brandon. Matt begins to speak with a beer in his hand. Two empty cans were on the table. There were two unfamiliar male faces sitting on the floor. Probably people from another band, I thought to myself.
“Lyyyyylyy!” He says happily with a smile of that of a child. “Did you get your phone back?” I put my hand to my head. Fuck. I forgot! Dammit. I didn’t know who to be mad at, myself or him.
“Uh, yeah,” I lied. I quickly walked past the two strangers and introduced myself. I excused my rudeness. They seemed too drunk to tell me their names or too occupied with the fun they were having. I went into the bathroom and locked it. I turn on the cold water. I look in the mirror real quick. “You stupid ass, how can you forget!?” With that I jumped in the shower. “Damn my sister and her dares and bets!” I whisper to myself.
Max P.O.V.
I lay on my bed. I need it. The guys are all out. I decided I’d stay in. I got to buy a lot of junk food on the way back. That’s when I decided I needed it. I take a bag from inside my pillow case and put it into my pocket. I go into the bathroom and lock the door. I look into the mirror and then dig in my pocket. Something almost fell but I caught it. Oh yeah, I didn’t give her her phone back. I didn’t really look through her photos and I wasn’t really going to send anything out. I had just met her and she was really fun to tease. I slide the lock to the side. Well, it wouldn’t hurt anyone to look right? I mean she already must’ve sent it to someone anyways. I look through her photos and find nothing that I was looking for. I scroll back to one photo. “What in the fucking hell?” I burst out laughing so hard and couldn’t stop. So this is what she thought I’d send everyone. I almost dropped the phone from laughing too much. It was a photo of her with a baby blanket over her head and a pacifier in her mouth.
