Never Gonna Let You Go
Chapter One
Nicole's POV
It started out as a regular week before tour. My alarm going off at 10 am so I can get my busy day started, realizing that i only had an hour to get ready before i met up with Vinny to start packing for the My Small Package Tour. I got the job selling merch for All Time Low because I have been best friends with the guys since freshman year of high school and pretty much helped them start the band. We've gone through everything together; deaths, break-ups, dating, all the usual stuff.
I rolled off of my bed and check my phone, 3 text messages and 2 missed calls from jack. "What could he want at 10 in the morning. He's never up that early" I said to myself. I dial his number and get a quick pick up from the other end.
"NICOOOOLE" Jack yelled. How he had this much energy this early, I had no idea. But I had a grin on my face just hearing his voice.
"Yes jack, what was so urgent that you blew up my phone so early dickhead?" I groaned tiredly into the phone.
"Well, Jeff really needs help with the lights this tour and I know Melanie is good with that type of shit sooo...the band was wondering if you could ask her if she could come on tour with us"
"Are you fucking kidding me? YES!" I screamed. "Im so excited, finally there will be more girls on the tour so im not stuck with you guys the whole time!!"
Dont get me wrong I love the All Time Low band and crew but i'm a girl and I need my girl time to do some shopping and gossiping.
"HEY! What is THAT suppose to mean? You love us!" he said in his upset puppy dog voice. "Oh shut up jack you know I love you guys but now I can actually have a girl on the tour to do all the girly shit you guys wont do with me"
"I let you dress me as Vicky T for halloween that one time!" he said eagerly. "You know what I mean jack, but I gotta go meet Vinny so we can get all the merch shit ready for tour! Ill text you late jacko. Love ya"
"Love you too kiddo BYEEE" he yelled as he hung up the phone. I really will never understand how he has all this energy.
I got out of bed and headed towards the shower reminding myself that I had to call Melanie and ask her if she'll come on tour with us. She will probably say yes seeing how she just got fired from her last job because she told a costumer to "fuck off." That is what I loved about Mel, she had no filter. She is one of the nicest people you will meet unless you piss her off and if you do I would watch where you sleep at night. I step into the steaming hot shower and just stand there for a moment going through all the things I needed to do this week. I had to start packing, go shopping for all the stuff i'll need for tour, get all the the merch shit done, and make time for Charlie, my boyfriend, before we set off to the first city.
I've been dating Charlie for almost a year now. He's such a sweet and genuine guy, but he gets angry pretty quickly, thats his only downfall. The guys dont like him very much, for reasons that are beyond me. They've never given me a valid reason why though. All Alex says is "He doesnt deserve you, you're so much better than that" blah blah blah. I guess they're just trying to look after me, I mean they do treat me like their sister after all. Even since high school they've always been weary about guys I date. I remember in our junior year I dated this kid name Keith. The boys absolutely hated him because he never formally introduced himself to them. I personally think they didnt like him because he was captain of the football team but they'd never tell me.
I get out of the shower and immediately call Melanie. "Hey Nicole, whats up girl?" Melanie says in her cute little british accent.
"So i've got really, really, really-" Mel cuts me off "JUST SAY IT" she screams into the phone. "Alright alright, well the band wants to know if you would help Jeff with the lighting this tour".
"ARE YOU SERIOUS? Oh my gosh! Yes, that would be amazing! I was praying a job would come up soon! Thank god" she sounded like she was pacing her room, she was so excited.
"Okay great, ill call Matt and let him know you're coming so he can set everything up. Remember to be ready by sunday because that's when we leave. Make sure you have all the equipment and ill have Matt email you all the shit you'll need" I said kind of rushing the convo so i could get on with my day.
"Perfect, thank you so soo sooo much lovey! Cant wait to be on tour with you and the boys. I'll talk to you later!" she says and she hangs up.
Still in my towel I go and change into my NYC crop top and my jean shorts and start doing my hair and make-up. I look at the time and its 10:46. Fuck. Im going to be late meeting up with Vin. I quickly grab my keys to my car, grab my bag and quickly leave my apartment.
