Circles

I walked to the front, and saw Alex there watching TV I wonder where the others went to
"Hey Alex where are the others?" "Oh they are outside with the guys from Pierce The Veil" "WHAT!!!!????? PIERCE THE VEIL I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO THEM ALMOST AS LONG AS YOU GUYS I'll be back in a min Alex" I literally jumped up, and ran to the door swung it open, and jumped down all I hear is Alex yell. "Shay don't go crazy fangirl on them please???" he pleaded as I ignored him then called back soon as I was out the door "Oh calm down Alex." Zack, and Rian look over at me really weird same with Vic, Mike, Tony, and Jamie. "Hey Shaden what was that about??" Zack said. "Oh you know Alex trying to get me not to fangirl over these 4, but I am not that bad just hyper to perform find out what this damn surprise is because you guys won't tell me by the way can someone tell me what it is now? And last, but not least I have been a fan of them since I was in like grade 9." (so freshman in the states). "Always nice to meet a fan, and another singer. Vic said turning his attention towards me. "Is this the girl Jack was going on, and on about?" Jamie questioned. "Wait Jack talked about me!?" "almost non-stop." Mike said laughing.
"wow" I started to blush a light pink damn it again I never used to blush now that's all I do god what is wrong with me now a days."So will someone tell me this surprise now??"I said impatiently. "We actually don't even know to be completely honest." Rian said

Alex opened the bus door, and call Rian and Zack to come in to the bus I figured I better go too. "Shay you stay there I need to talk to the guys about the surprise." Alex said. "Damn it Alex just tells me." I said finally frustrated. "nope now stay out there Vic can you keep her from being nosy." "Yea sure man." Vic said. "Ugh this so isn't fair" I slid down the bus, and just realized I haven't had a smoke yet guess it's smoke time hey maybe Andy will be outside the BVB bus, and I can chat with him. "Hey Umm guys can you take me to the BVB bus, so I can go have a smoke with Andy maybe?" I said hopeful. "Sure Shaden." Tony said. "I need one too so let's go, and I'm out can you spare one?" Mike asked. "No prob here." I said pulling out my pack, and handing him one "Warning they might be fairly light the woman at the store didn't give me the right pack "the guys walked me down to the BVB bus, and surely enough Andy was outside same with Jake. "Oh yea thanks for the smoke by the way." Mike said.
"Hey guys" "Oh hey your Shaden right?" Andy said. I just nodded just speechless I was talking to my hero someone that their voice has helped me so much, and kept me going through all my shit for the last 3 years just talked to me, and knows my name calm down stop fangirling Shay just calm down I said to myself in my head I decided to look over, and Jake was just staring at me like he’s lost in space, or something I wonder what that's about when he suddenly spoke up he must have caught me staring shit.

"So you excited to perform today." Wow in person his voice is even better, and he’s so much better looking up close stop it I can't be falling all over these guys I'll never see them again after today well almost never. "Yea I am beyond stoked to be here all of this is so surreal, and over-whelming." I said being honest. "Well you are waiting to go on stage you know you're going to be back stage with us?" He said. All I could think is I am going to be backstage with The Black Veil Brides one of my all time favorite bands, and my hero's, and some of the hottest men in music could this be any more amazing. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Andy talking to me waving his hand in my face. "Shaden Hello you in there." I didn't catch who was talking to me oh man how much did I miss this time? "Yea Yea I am sorry I was just lost in thoughts for a second" I said laughing. "Hey Umm can one of you bring her back we have to get ready for sound check?"Vic said rubbing his neck "Yea I guess" Andy said. "Thanks guys. Oh, and Shaden be at the stage in an hour you got sound check then." Vic finished "Kay thanks guys nice meeting you."
I watched as all the guys of Pierce the Veil walked off I turned back to Andy, and Jake, but Jake was pacing back and forward looking upset, but he was on the phone. "Umm Andy is Jake alright?? he looks really worried, or upset."I said "Oh uh yea him, and Ella are fighting a bit because she is so far away, and he has been really busy." He stated "Oh..... Okaiee ummm so what we gonna do for like a half hour?" "You of drinking age?" "Yea why?" "Want a beer, or something?" he asked? "Sure why not I'm not a big beer drinker I am more of a vodka killer" I said chuckling. "Cool let's get on the bus you can meet the others I apologize for Ash in advance." "He can't be as bad as his rep can he?" I said
"not really just a flirt" He stated. "Alright"

Andy walked over to the door I quickly threw my cigarette on the ground, and stomped it out, and walked over to Andy when I got on the bus I turned my head right then I saw Ash, CC, and Jinxx on the couch going over a schedule. They looked up, and saw me standing there CC jumped up, and ran over picked me up in a hug. "You're Shaden." He exclaimed "Yes, and well what is with everyone, and picking me up first Jack now you CC geez."I said laughing. CC put me down, and Ash got up walked over to me and picked me up, and threw me over his shoulder. "Hey cutie." he said. By this point I am so done with people picking me up. It’s bad enough I am scared of heights though he’s not that tall, but all this picking me up is bugging me. "Look its Purdy Porn by the way HI!!!!!!" I yelled in his ear "Damn she's louder than you CC." he said cupping one of his ears while still holding me. "Doubt that." CC claimed. "Wanna test that" I said with nerve challenging him. "You're on!!" He yelled. "Take it outside I don't want to go def you two" Jinxx said laughing at us two."Fine" I said pouting as Ash put me down. Just then Jake walked in looking kinda sad, but also really peeved at the same time so me being me I decided to see if he’s alright, but I didn't expect his reaction to be like this. He's supposed to be really nice, and kinda shy from what I heard. "Hey Jake are you alright you look kinda pissed?" I asked wearily. "Not your business so don't bother I am fine alright." He shouted at me. "I was just asking no need to bite my head off Sorry." I said backing up with my hands help up in defence. "Jake don't be so mean she was just trying to be nice." Jinxx stated "Sorry I snapped on you." With that he walked off, and slammed the door to bunk alley. "Okaiee so what we gonna do? And can I have that beer now?!"I asked happily. "sure but show me you’re ID I wanna be sure" Andy asked. "fine geez." I rummaged through my purse for my age of majority card to show Andy. I found it, and pulled it out, and shoved it in front of his face, and yelled "SEE!!" "Yeah Ash is right I think you might be louder than CC." He said cringing back from how loud I was. "Ha told yeah CC." I mocked "NOT A CHANCE." he yelled "Guys stop yelling." Jinxx said laughing. CC, and I looked at each other, and Both said "Sorry" at the same time which just made us burst out laughing. "Great we have another CC on our hands." Andy said laughing. "I don't think I can handle two CC's cause I don't need two people playing pranks on me, and bugging me." Ash said in an aggravated tone. "I heard of one putting all you hair styling stuff in a place you couldn't reach that was so priceless good one CC, and the fact when you asked Andy he moved it a little higher I couldn't stop laughing." I started laughing my ass off. "Yeah sooo funny and Shut it Shorty you're even shorter than me." He stated. "HEY I AM AS TALL AS JINXX IS SO I CAN’T BE THAT SHORT!!" I yelled. "I am not that short." Jinxx said still laughing. "To end this you're all short in my eyes." Andy said in a matter-of-factly tone
Ashley, Jinxx and I all turned to Andy and said at the same time "Shut up giraffe" he just laughed "wow you keep doing that." CC said

~Mean while Jake's P.O.V.

Man all me, and Ella have been doing is fighting, and I don't know why, and thinking Shaden is really good looking isn't helping I mean she has got the most beautiful Red hair she isn't a twig, but she isn't heavy set, she's a little cubby tho, and I wonder how she sounds when she sings she has to be good since she won.

Man what’s with all the yelling going on out there I put my ear to the door, and heard three voices yell "Shut up giraffe" guess Andy said something to Ash, Jinxx and I guess Shaden since the other was a girls voice.

I think I will go see what’s going on I walked out, and saw Shaden laid out on the couch with CC, Ash, and Andy sitting on her while Andy is holding a beer over her I didn't even think she was old enough to drink oh well thats good tho I know she's at least 19 wait stop it damn I need to stop thinking this way.
"One question why are you three crushing Shaden." I said "Damn bastards won't give me the damn beer Andy said if I proved I was old enough legally to drink here in Canada he would give me a beer, and I proved it then yea it went a long way to get to this, but Ashley will die if he doesn't get off my ass, and move his damn hand from it too, he will lose that hand, and I am pretty sure he needs it." She threatened.
Ashley jumped off, and moved his hands holding them up in defence as he said "I like my hands where they are at thank you very much!" We all burst out laughing I checked my cell shit Shaden's got sound check in 5.
" Uh guys we gotta take Shaden now" "No not my new best friend." CC yelled "If you get off me I could go, and I want my beer!!" She exclaimed struggling to get up with Andy and CC still on her. "Guys get off her come on." Jinxx said in a fatherly tone. which kinda made me laugh hes always taking on the fatherly role since the other are like giant kids. "She’s gonna be late if you don't, and I am blaming you three if Zack, and Rian ask." I said laughing. "So there" she said and stuck her tongue out she's adorable. Stop it you're with Ella you're fiancée the woman you love plus she likes Jack, and he likes her, and I'll never see her again after today. I watched Andy, and CC get off her, and start to walk to the door when Shaden spoke up "Heyy guys I better text Alex, or Jack and tell them to start, and I will be there soon." She said getting up fully following. "Sounds good, but let’s get going" I said. When we got outside CC stopped looked at Shaden what’s with those two all the sudden Shaden took off running, and jumped up on CC's back, and he spun her around all she could do was laugh, and scream geez she’s as loud as CC if not louder. I shook myself from my thoughts, and looked up she was still on CC's back, and Andy was acting like just as much as a big kid trying to jump on both of them this is why I love my band mates, and brothers. Good thing we will be at sound check in a min, but for some reason I just can't shake the thought of her especially right now with her beautiful blood red hair flowing around while CC, and Andy were goofing off. I looked over to Jinxx holding a Teal camera taking picture's. "Who's is that?" I asked "Shaden's it was on top of her bag I thought she's want a few memories like this."


Shaden's P.O.V.
I was on CC's back he, and Andy were running around jumping everywhere on the way to sound check I was having so much fun we were coming up to the stage. Andy, and I were singing Andy just started screaming like in perfect weapon so I joined him which made Alex, and the guys look up, and our way Jack took off his guitar, and jumped down, and ran over I jumped off CC's back, and ran over, and jumped in to Jack's arms he started to hug me, and spin me around.
"JACK WHY ARE YOU SPINNING ME AROUND" "I don't know, and I had no clue where you were it kinda scared me plus I was bored without someone to do something crazy with." "weellllllll I am here now!! , and being up here is great you know, but could you um maybe put me down now?"
sure. He put me down, and then looked down said to me "I didn't know you were a screamer", and winked at me. "JACK! and I thought Ash was bad!" *face palm* "lets go practice the song you goof." Ash called out "Hey I am not that bad by the way don't you need your camera!" as he threw it to me I managed to catch it just as Jack grabbed my hand, and took off up to the stage man his touch is like fire on my skin, but yet I don't want to let go I look back over to Jake, and the guys Jake looked a bit pissed what's with him, and his moods he’s like a hormonal pregnant chick with his emotions. soon as we were up on the stage Alex passed me my mic, and we got rolling I looked down, and saw a few bands there besides BVB I saw OM&M, Sumo Cyco, PTV, SWS, Paramore, and The Nearly Deads there watching and looked back a bit and saw Asking, and BOTDF walking up with Jeffree Star wow some of my fave band standing there watching me perform what I wasn't expecting was to look off to the side, and see Juliet Simms Walking over to Andy I am singing her part oh I hope I do good I looked to the other side where Zack was and saw Beau Bokan, and his wife Lights standing there with Matty from MMF, and Shane Told from Silverstein you think they would see me later, but no they were here I guess the Guys must have really talked about me. My part was coming up, and I couldn't believe it I am so nervous about this Jack came over to me and said "hey Shay you alright?" “yea I'm fine just nervous" "don't worry you'll be amazing as always just do your thing." he said as he walked away.
God Jacks the best it was just coming to my part Alex then said "I'd like to welcome the winner of our contest some of you know her, but this is Shaden Heart." it’s now, or never time to sing my heart out, and give it my all these are my hero’s below me.
I took a couple of shaky breaths, and started to sing.

I'm not coming back (forgive me)
I've done something so terrible
I'm terrified to speak (I'm not calling, I'm not calling)
But you'd expect that from me
I'm mixed up, I'll be blunt, now the rain is just (You're driving me crazy, I'm)
Washing you out of my hair and out of my mind
Keeping an eye on the world,
From so many thousands of feet off the ground, I'm over you now
I'm at home in the clouds, and towering over your head

Alex came back in and finished
Well I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home

I looked at Jack, and he come over and hugged me, and turned me to everyone I heard CC screaming like a nut job Skye was smiling, and clapping I look at the rest they were all clapping, and yelling at how awesome I did I can't believe it, but only one persons opinion mattered at the moment Juliet's I jumped down, and was showered in hugs till CC ran in, and put me on his shoulder, and yelled "BACK BACK YOU VULTURES" "CC damn it you crazy goof put me down." I shouted at him. He set me down, and I walked over to Juliet I really hope she liked it. "Hey Juliet" "Hey so your Shaden!" "Yup so I know this may sound stupid, but your opinion at the moment is the only one that kinda matters what did you think did I live up to what you can do?" "Actually you did great watch your vibrato though it will get you other than that it was amazing I am surprised someone so young has a voice like yours you got talent." "Why does everyone think I am so young I am 19." "Hey take it as a compliment cause when you get to be near my age like 25-30 you take it as a compliment people saying you look young." "True that" I started to laugh a bit with her "Juliet I will catch you later"


I was walking away when someone grabbed my arm I turned, and Jake had a hold of my wrist there was like electricity flowing through our hands weird."Great job up there Shaden that was really amazing I didn't know you were that great of a singer." "Thanks Jake by the way just to tell you, you are my favorite guitarist of all time, but please don't tell Jack I said that he'll pout like a child all day." I said laughing then finished my sentence. "Oh by the way being told that is like having Amy Lee, Avril Lavigne, or even Hayley over there telling me I am good it means the world to hear that oh, and I am sure they guys want you on stage now." "Shoot yeah I'll talk to you when you are waiting for your turn to go up later. he said as he took off to go on stage with the others, and I yelled back. "Okaiee see ya later"

As we walked back I was thinking two days, and my life has done a complete 180 degree turn for the best, and it will only get better when I perform, but how much longer would it last knowing my luck, plus with my ex being here this happiness won't last too long.
