*Casey's POV

Where do I even start on introducing myself ..  I guess it would be smart to start with my name..haha...... I'm Casey, Casey Phillips. I'm 25 years old. My family is originally from the U.K But when i was about 12 we had moved to the states for my dads job...nothing like good old Texas, (he said rolling his eyes). You see I never wanted to move cause that would mean leaving my friends and family here . Anyway lets get back on track. Moving to the states wasn't ideal, honestly I hated it, I was in middle school and you know how kids in middle school are.. It sucked being the new kid..

    I had a hard time making friends, I don't really know why I had never had trouble before. I was a loner up until my freshman year in high school, that's around the time i started to get into my music, so i joined the band. I know didn't really help my case with the whole friends department.. but their was this guy Kyle , he had transfers from  another school a couple weeks ago ,and for some reason he wanted to be friends with the skinny drum player in the corner.. 

   Everything was great for awhile and up till my senior year in high school it wasn't that bad, But I was stupid enough to fall for my best friend, the main problem with that is that, he didn't even know I was gay, i was afraid he would leave and I didn't want to chance it, but i had finally decided to tell him how I felt. It was about two weeks before graduation.. I know stupid timing.... it was about two weeks before graduation, me and Kyle decided we would go out for pizza just relax befor all the pressure of our final exam in a few days, as were eating I couldn't help stare at him, he notices and i swear my face looked like a damn tomato,..... "Whats up Case" he asked, then i blurted it out like word vomit "I'm gay" i quickly coved my mouth I didn't mean to say it like that but i just couldn't hold it back anymore....

   You should have seen the look on his face, I don't even know why i told him the next part maybe to just get it of my chest, "Theirs more I've liked you for a while now and I didn't want to tell you cause i didn't want to lose our friendship but i cant hide how i feel anymore it's eating away at me". ....... after what happened that night I didn't even want to go to school anymore let alone walk the stage at graduation.  Maybe ill tell you someday but not right now... I couldn't really handle much after that happened... I ended up moving back to the U.K., to escape my problems.

   I end up staying with my cousin Lex till i got back on my feet. He even helped me find a job at those music store.. I got even more into music then i was before.. I had actually meet some really cool people over the years... from the day I meant Allison, Derek and Allisons little brother Issac at the store, it's like we instantly clicked, we were all really into music, Allison sang, Derek played quitar, and of course I have always been the drummer.... and Issac well he just liked anything that involved music. All my days consist of music and working out i was determined to not be that tiny little drummer like i was in high school. I even found a new love for tattoos.. I had completely changed over the past several years but i like to think it change me for the better. 
    
     A couple years ago me Allison and Derek decided we wanted to start a band, we didn't know if it would take us anywhere but we gave it a shot, posting weekly videos on YouTube, under the name Some Day Dreamers and i was suprised at how many views we were getting and after a couple months we started playing at bars and party's, and that's what we did for a while but  last summer we were playing at sweet 16 party, and at the end of the party the dad of the birthday kid approached us "here's the rest of the money for performing tonight". " thanks" i said. Then what he said next surprised the hell out of all of us " Look I'm gonna be honest, i was hesitant to hire a band, i know nothing about but my daughter is a huge fan of yours she wouldn't even let sample any of your music before hand something about seeing is believing, anyway i own a entertainment company that books bands and such for high end clients, and i have a few party's looking for bands i think you guys would be perfect for" I swear we all had stupid looks on our faces.. Allison was the first one to speak "are you serious " "very serious , he's my card think about and give me a call in a few days and let me know if your up for it" " thank you so much" " your welcome hope to hear from you soon "

   So of course we called him.... and up till recently we played party's all the time at least 3 times a week, we played at high end party's...after a doing that for about 6 months we decided to some smaller gigs around europe... I guess we just wanted a chance of pace for a little while.. tonight is our last show for the summer, were gonna take a few months to breathe and just think about where we want the band to go next, I'm currently sitting at a bar in Paris where are last show is gonna be Issac set this up for us, him Allison and Derek are outside getting some fresh air,  i got my drink and decided to go start setting up for our set tonight. I'm almost done when Allison and Derek come back to help finish up and as were setting up their talking about this friends Issac meant the other day and invited here....... "Casey you should have seen the friends Issac brought they are sexy af" Derek was going on about, then Allison chimed in " to bad they are both gay" Derek started to pout " no fair you and Casey always gets the hot ones" "i thought they were both gay" "well ones a lesbian and the others gay same thing" " how do you even know that? Did they just straight up come up to you and tell you they batted for the other team." I said rolling my eyes " well no but i can just tell you know my gaydar is on point.. remember when i ask you if you were gay... i could just feel it in my bones" I couldn't help but roll my eyes at that one too because she not wrong.

     The manager came back stage to tell us its time to go on. As were walking on the stage my eyes scan the room like it always does to see how many people are here, as I'm getting ready to sit behind my drums my eyes go over towards Issac, i always give him a thumbs up befor a show I don't know why just a random tradition i guess but befor i even get to do that i meet eyes with the stranger sitting with him i dont know why i cant look away but he has me frozen in place.  I dont know what it is about this man but the fact that he is staring right back at me, has my heart going crazy.  I didn't even realize that we had started to play our song, I had to pull my gayze away from the handsome stranger, but all i knew in that moment is that i need to know who he is........
