Terrible Things

Warped

“Who's All Time Low?” I yelled at Vic as I ran through the Warped Line up one more time on the us to the first venue.
“A band from Baltimore. They're really good.” Vic yelled back. “You'll love them.” I clicked the link to the wikipedia page and stared idiotically at the photography in the information panel. No. Way. “Carr?” I quickly googled the band and my images result was overloaded of photographs of Alex and Jack with Rian and another guy I couldn't place. Vic put his hand on my shoulder and nodded. “Yeah, that's them.” I shook my head. They had a band? Rian was musical? In the short three weeks I had kind of known the boys I had seriously lacked digging out a decent amount of information.
“What's wrong with her?” Jaime said as he climbed onto the bus. “Carrie, you look like you've seen a ghost.” I pointed to the screen and struggled to get the words out.
“A, a, Al... Alex.” I stammered. Vic looked at me questioningly and I watched the light bulb switch on his head.
“Alex Gaskarth is your Alex? Baltimore Alex?” I nodded and a stupid grin spread across my face. I squeaked and hugged Vic and then planted a kiss on Jaime's cheek. I ran to my bunk and pulled out my bag. Oh my god. In less than two hours I would be in the same tent as Alex and Jack. Holy shit. Holy mother fucking shit. My heart race increased ten fold and the boys giggled as I lined my eyes perfectly. “Apparently, three years isn't enough time to get over a dude, ay chicka?” I smacked Vic's shoulders as he tried to take my make-up from me.
“This is important to me Vic.”He burst out laughing.
“You knew the guys for three weeks? Haven't seen them in three years and now your acting as if your meeting Mayday Parade or something.” I turned and stared at Vic like he was an idiot.
“I am meeting Mayday Parade dick.” The next two hours went perfectly slowly and I prepared myself to make the best impression I could. I had a pair of tight red jeans on to match my hair and a jack daniels top. My hair was perfectly straight and my fringe fell perfectly across my face. I sighed in contentment and jumped off the bus to inform the admin that the band was here. I grabbed our parking assignment and directed the driver to the sight.
The site was right under a set of oak trees and the guys jumped off to start exploring. I had only one destination, and that was to follow the sound echoing from the stage in front of me. I would know that voice anywhere. I showed my pass to security ans climbed the stairs to stand back stage. Alex sat on a stool next to a girl I couldn't place and had a look of pain on his face as he belted out the lyrics.

“The neighbours said she moved away, funny how it rained all day, I didn't think much of it then, now its starting to all make sense.” Alex looks so passionate about this song and tried desperately to find a meaning to the lyrics. “Oh, I can see now, why all of these clouds are, following me on my desperate endeavour, to find my whoever, where ever she may be.” The girl stood with her mic and started to sing.
“I'm not coming back,” Juliet. “I've done something so terrible, I'm terrified to think but you'd expect that from me. I'm mixed up, I'll be blunt. Now the rain is just washing you out of my hair. And out of my mind. Keeping an eye on the world, so many thousands of feet off the ground...” Oh. I rushed over to the set list which was sitting on the amp and asked the guitar tech what number it was. I looked down the list and stared at the name. Remembering Sunday. It was a song about Chloe. Holy crap. I stood side stage and waited for the band to finish their set. Alex waved goodbye to the crowd and nearly crashed into me as he jumped side stage.
“Oh, sorry,” He stared at me. “Carrie?” I laughed.
“Nice song, Gaskarth.” He continued to stare. Jack ran in behind him and waved hello to me, totally unphased. He pushed past and then turned around.

“Carrie?”

Notes

Ohhh look who Carrie found!

Comments

This story is so good! OMG. I just found it and started reading it yesterday, and haven't stopped. I just caught up with all of the updates you have of it and really love it.
It's a very dark fan fic. Specifically with the first half, honestly one of the darkest I've read actually... like with that curse of everything happening on Sundays? Man... and you just kind of kept it up too. It was just very dark, and sad, but... different. And I really like that about this.
The second half seems to be deviating from that a little bit, but I sensed that coming back with the babies thing. I mean, not that I want anything to happen, but I almost feel you had something bad happening planned with the pregnancy. Perhaps not, perhaps that was just to raise some of the tone as opposed to keeping it happy go lucky, who knows. But I found it interesting how you did that.
I'm glad that Alex and Carrie finally got together, with the first part of this I was just screaming GET TOGETHER until they finally did. lol. And I was happy. :)
I found it a bit odd how they just took in those fans though. On a realistic writing level, the oddity of this story was the curse thing. But adding the fans thing in too, it just... it didn't really fit. Especially considering legalities and all of that. I feel like it was a little too easy that they gained guardianship.
But overall, I have enjoyed Alex and Carrie's love story. I'm sad to see it was never finished, so I'm leaving this comment to let you know if you ever do choose to finish it, I will be here to read, for sure. I'd love to see how it all ends for these two. Even if it's just a final chapter wrap up or something; I understand what it's like losing inspiration.
But yeah, sorry if this comment sounded harsh at all, but just wanted to leave my honest thoughts. I think you're a truly great writer, though, and hope you have at least kept up with it in your free time. :)
