These Big City Dreams Are What You're About (Christofer Drew Fan Fiction)

Chapter 29: Nevershoutnever!

UPDATE TIMEE!!! :D

---Chris's POV---

I sat in my room and thought, thought about my name that I should call myself.

"Come on, who's gonna wanna listen to some skinny, blond twig named Christofer Drew Ingle? I sure wouldn't." I remember people teasing me. I got angry just thinking about it.

"Seriously, who would? Would any one listen to your little whiny ass?" The words still rang in my head.

"No, never!" I would always shout back.

"Come on." Kaitlyn encourged me. "Don't say that."

There. I had the first word. Never. Never...what? Never Say No? No. Never....

NEVER SHOUT NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I smiled and wrote it down in my notebook. It was perfect. Nevershoutnever! Thats better. Now I have a name to call myself when I preform my private show at the venue this weekend. I was so excited!

I picked up my cell phone and dialed Kaitlyn's number.

"Helloo?" Her voice on the other end said softly.

"KAITLYN!!! I GOT IT! I GOT IT!" I was so happy that I jumped up and down.

"Got what, babe? Stop yelling! What are you, five?"she giggled.

"I got my stage name! I'm Nevershoutnever!"

"What? That's great! It's a cute name and really describes you,"

I couldn't stop smiling. Finally, I'm what I've always wanted to be. I'm a musician, I'm livin' the dream. This weekend is going to be amazing.

---Few Days Later!!! :D (The weekend!)---

"Christofer, wake up! You have your preformance today, remember! Don't be late!" My mom knocked on my door.

Yes! Today's finally here! I got dressed in the outfit I had already picked out the night before; my black and white striped shirt, my blue jeans, sandals, and my lucky peace sign necklace. I combed and straightened my light blonde hair. I grabbed my guitar and put it over my shoulder. I'm officially a music artist.

I left my house and got into my car. I reccieved a text from Kait saying she would meet me there. I needed her support. A rush of panic swept over my body as I pulled the brakes to start my car. I was nervous. I pictured it; a bunch of teenage girls, just staring at me, expecting me to be the next teen idol. I could already hear their laughter at something stupid I'd do. I needed something to calm me down. I took a few deep breaths, and reached in my pockets for my pack of cigarettes. I know its probably not the best thing to do before you sing and all that, but whatever.

I walked into the venue. It was small, and it looked like a classroom. There was a bunch of girls and some boys sitting around on the floor. Colorful ballons were spread all around the room and a sign that read "NeverShoutNever!" was hung up over the stage where I would preforming later. I felt welcomed and happy.

I felt someone poke me from behind. Startled, I turned around and stared into the brown eyes of Kaitlyn.

"Babe! You came!" I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Of course I came! Do you think I'd miss your first show?"

"I'm glad you didn't. I need you here so much." I said to her.

"Chris, I'll be over in that audience cheering you on. I'm always here to support you."

"Thanks-before I could finish my sentence, a woman's voice called,

"Christofer? Are you ready to preform?"

I froze. I was SO nervous. I know I'm going to mess up somehow. "Okay, I'll be out there in a minute."

"Bye! Good luck!" she kissed my lips and walked to the sea of kids waiting in the audience.

With a pounding heart, sweaty palms, and an aching stomach, I approached the front of the "stage" where everyone was waiting for some seventeen-year-old guy from Joplin who calls himself, nevershoutnever! to preform. I felt so awkward....

Everyone cheered as I walked on and sat down with my guitar. I kept my eyes on Kaitlyn the whole time, who was standing in the back and smiling at me.

"Um, hi. I'm Chris, and uh, I'm from Joplin..." I began to awkawardly tell the kids about me and my new EP which was The Yipee EP that they can download on iTunes. Damn, I'm an awkward fool....oh well, they seemed to enjoy it.

"So, I'm gonna play about...nine songs. This one's the sixth one on the EP and it's called Smelyalata."

"I know that I've been dancing around the truth, but tell me what the hell am I supposed to do..." I began to sing. Some joined in. It felt amazing knowing that people actually listen to this skinny blond twig named Christofer Drew Ingle.

I played other songs like heregoesnothin, shesgotstyle, bigcitydreams, yourealltalk,yourbiggestfan, trouble, cute without the e,and more of my original songs. Once I was finished, everyone clapped and cheered. This was one of the best feelings ever. People actually enjoy my music and get something out of it...interesting....

Thats it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you liked? Comment? Vote? Thanks!!!
