Circles

~3 hours later~

I was just hanging backstage watching PTV perform since we were up after them Jack hasn't left my side for the last few hours I am still so curious what this damn surprise is maybe I can get it out of Jack.
"Hey Jack ummm I was wondering what the surprise is I am actually really worried about it can you at least give me a hint about it cause I can't handle surprises too well." "I could, but Alex would kill me if I told you. Oh I should tell you there are two surprises for you trust me both are good." Just then Matt Flyzik the guys Tour Manager walked over to us, and yelled ALL TIME LOW ON FIVE MINUTES. "Looks like you are on in a few" I said "At that I am so yea see you on stage." Jack leaned down and kissed my cheek. I couldn't help, but blush at that moment because its when the the guys from PTV came backstage, and the guys from BVB showed up too just my luck.
"Good luck not like you'll need it tho" I stood on my tippy toes hugged him. and kissed his cheek back. "Neither will you, you'll do just fine trust me now I gotta go." Just as I turned around when Jack ran on stage Jake was standing there staring at me what is with him, and doing that I would love to know just as I was about to ask him he spoke up and said" What was that about Shaden?" I looked at him fuck he saw it "Oh nothing just he was wishing me good luck" he just nodded, and looked away seriously what is with him. CC just walked over, and put his arm on my shoulder as the guys from PTV told me they would hang back to watch and wished me good luck man I am so nervous.


Scott's P.O.V. 1262879723_2115_full

I was walking around, and heard some girls talkin' I can't believe I didn't win the contest to sing with All Time Low ugh, her friend said I know that Shaden chick that won sucks compared to you. Wait as in Shaden my x fuck I hope not. Might as well check it out tho. I know Anne's not a big fan of them, but they are the only semi good ones on at all for this time slot I walked up to the where the stage was, and flooded in once I think they are Pierce The Veil were done I managed to get me, and Anne to the front when the just came out the lead singer came out I remember seeing these guys with Shaden last year they were pretty good the singer started to speak, and girls started going wild.

HEY HOW YOU ALL DOING TODAY???
FUCK WHAT IS UP WITH THIS RAIN FIRST LAST YEAR, AND NOW THIS YEAR?? ANYWAY WHO'S READY TO DANCE??
The crowd around me was going nuts I shouldn't have come in here, but I have to see if its my x singing with them
about halfway through I think halfway through I don't know how long the sets go since this is my first time here but he turned to the lead guitarist I think, and said.
HEY JACK
YEA ALEX
DON'T YOU THINK ITS TIME TO BRING IT DOWN A NOTCH FOR A FEW MINUTES
I THINK SO, BUT YOU KNOW HARD TO BRING IT DOWN, AND KEEP IT DOWN
JACK I DIDN'T MEAN YOUR DICK
same morons as last time I thought to myself.
OH OH YEA LETS GET THAT GOING NOW
ALRIGHT SO ITS TIME TO SCALE IT BACK A BIT I KNOW THIS IS LIKE ON OF OUR OLDEST SONGS BUT I THINK IT MEANS A LOT TO A FEW PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THIS PERSON.
OH I KNOW IT DOES ALEX SO LETS YOU KNOW GET THIS STARTED!
all the other guys walked off the stage, and the singer Alex I think came back with a stool and an acoustic same with their lead guitarist came back too with an accoustic they started some song. I kinda recognized it Shay always used to play this song, and sing along when we lived together I really hope its not her I don't want to hear her singing don't get me wrong shes like amazing, and all, but I just can't hear it especially if its the song I think it is because then she's singing it from when we were together of fuck maybe she knows I am here I doubt it, but she might wait a sec it may not even be her might as well just shut up, and see. Just then he started to sing. Fuck it is the song.
He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Started making his way past 2 in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days

Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees
They had breakfast together
But two eggs don't last
Like the feeling of what he needs

Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs, she led him upstairs
*I heard a girl's voice doing back up it sounds like hers no no no it can't be her*
Left him dying to get in

Forgive me, I'm trying to find
My calling, I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm going to ask her to marry me

Even though she doesn't believe in love,
He's determined to call her bluff
Who could deny these butterflies?
They're filling his gut

Waking the neighbors, unfamiliar faces
He pleads though he tries
But he's only denied
Now he's dying to get inside

Forgive me, I'm trying to find
My calling, I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm going to ask her to marry me

The neighbors said she moved away
Funny how it rained all day
I didn't think much of it then
But it's starting to all make sense
Oh, I can see now that all of these clouds
Are following me in my desperate endeavor
To find my whoever, wherever she may be

Hey everyone I know you know we had a contest, and thats why we are doing this song this was her submission, and welcome our new friend Shaden Heart!

Wait it can't be I looked over, and surely enough it was her, and her bright blood red hair wow she's even lost more weight well lets see what fun I can have with this.

"WHY DID YOU PICK THIS TALENTLESS WHORE WHAT SHE FUCK ALL OF YOU TO GET HER CHANCE."
She looked down, and saw me, and started to tear up, and started to sing while the guitarist glared me down then gave her a sympathetic smile wonder what thats about.


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
*She said pointing at me.*
I'm at home in the clouds, and towering over your head

Wow she was actually amazing better than she used to be, but no way will I let her get a good moment she doesn't deserve it from when she left me the first time.

[Alex Gaskarth:]
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

The guitarist walked over to her, and kissed her she was kissing back what the hell!!
"Well that was a surprise I thought I was going to surprise Shay with something, but I guess Jack had his own surprise for her Hey Jack, Shaden you done sucking face I'd like to get on to the surprise." Alex said
"Oh right yeah Hey Shaden wait Alex you wanna tell her, or should I?"
She suddenly spoke I thought she went mute.
"Would you guys just tell me already."
She said impatiently she hasn't changed I chuckled at that, and Anne looked at me weird, and I just shrugged it off..

"You tell her man." Alex said
"Alright so we decided that we were going to have you sing alone, and do your two favorite songs what do you say to giving it a shot, and putting on a show for everyone" Jack said
"OH MY GOODNESS GUYS YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE THIS IS JUST TOO AMAZING, but sure so I am singing therapy, and Get Down On You Knees And Tell Me You Love Me right?" She questioned after her momentral spaz fit.
"well what else would you sing !" Alex said.
"Haha true that Alex So umm mind if I say something quick before I guess we do therapy?" She asked him
"go for it"
"Well this song is so close to me, and it has helped me through so much for the last like 4 years, and it got me through a tough break up he's even here in the crowd today he was my first love, my first everything but he broke my heart almost 5 months ago he was some major arrogant jerk he's the one that shouted out at me. I never felt beautiful because I've been bullied all my life, I was never told I was beautiful till him, but in the end it was all a lie he told me. I was abused 4 years ago, and this is when I found this song I've been a fan of these nut jobs here for almost 7 years, and this is one of many songs to describe me, and my ex fiancee this song had convinced me years ago to go get help for self harm to get help for anorexia if you don't feel beautiful raise your hand! See look around? all of you are amazing never let someone get you down, don't even let yourself hold you in, and down because we all feel down sometimes, but as I've learned from some very special people in the last 2 days you can make it long as you try you are beautiful no matter who you are in your own way never let an ex, a bully, even your parent's friend's family anyone tear you down just be who you are." As She finished tearing up a little speaking of a touchy subject that I know she went through hell "so now lets do this song, and guys I can't thank you enough for all this you are truly amazing friends I can't imagine my life without you guys, or well the guys from BVB now here we go This is Therapy.

My ship went down
In a sea of sound.
When I woke up alone I had everything:
A handful of moments I wished I could change
And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade.

In a city of fools,
I was careful and cool,
But they tore me apart like a hurricane...
A handful of moments I wished I could change
But I was carried away.

Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can keep all your misery.

My lungs gave out
As I faced the crowd.
I think that keeping this up could be dangerous.
I'm flesh and bone,
I'm a rolling stone
And the experts say I'm delirious.

Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can take back your misery. She Sang

she walked down to the edge got on to the speaker closest to me, and pointed at me in the crowd mouthed this is all to you Scott she started to sing again while she was crying.

Arrogant boy,
Love yourself so no one has to.
They're better off without you.
Alex sang: (They're better off without you.)

Arrogant boy,
Cause a scene like you're supposed to.
They'll fall asleep without you.
You're lucky if your memory remains.

She started to cry

Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can take back your misery.

Therapy...
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can choke on your misery.
"Well isn't that something different let's get this party back up and running." Alex said.
"I agree things are a bit to slow even for my liking and Alex don't let me sing this one alone" I said laughing.
"That's wh.." Jack was cut off. "Don't even finish that Jack." I said pointing at him sticking my tongue out.
"Alright you two lets just do the song." Alex said causing both Jack and I to turn to Alex sticking out our tongues out.

*As the music started up She started to shake her hips like she used to as she did that she started cuing in the claps with the crowd before making the count down with her fingers out towards the crowd *

I've been played a fool four, three, too many times and
When did lust for you become an organized crime?
I tried to keep you honest, babe, but I was just a pawn
You played the part so well, it hurts to know you're gone

* She ran over to the bassist leaning on him shaking she shoulders before jumping off from there spinning her body and head in a full on dance spin.* (Wow she's gotten good over the last few months I know she's been doing dance for a while)

Did you mean it? Could you feel it when you broke into my head?
Did you fake it just to break another stranger in your bed?
Was it worth it? Was it perfect when you up and left me cynical?
Like you planned it, you're a bandit.
Just a no good, two-bit, filthy, rotten criminal.
*she made my hand like a gun motion putting it to her temple before making the fake shot before running off from in between the bassist, and Alex*
*She skipped over past Alex sliding her finger across his shoulders having He looked over smiling as she reached Jack looking back at him smiling*

Ouuh
Let me count the ways; I six, seven, ate my words
Right from your silver plate, we checked in, checked out, checkmate
I couldn't keep you honest, babe, 'cause I was just a card you played
The draw so well, it hurts to know you're gone, you're gone, you're gone
* she Leaned on Jack before kissing his cheek running off to the front standing on the front speakers near the edge*

Did you mean it? Could you feel it when you broke into my head?
Did you fake it just to break another stranger in your bed?
Was it worth it? Was it perfect when you up and left me cynical?
Like you planned it, you're a bandit.
Just a no good, two-bit, filthy, rotten criminal.

*As it came into the guitar solo she ran past Jack doing the claps sticking out her tongue out at him climbing on top of the small riser for the drummer shaking her head as the solo picked up as the bassist moved to the middle as Alex, and Jack stayed on the outside tossing the guitars across the bassist jumped in the middle as she jumped down off the riser through the middle and ran out to the front leaning forward to step on the rail right by me singing the next line*

Did you mean it? Could you feel it when you broke into my head?
* she looked back to Alex nodding her head to the crowd and he smiled nodding she then turned back falling into the crowd just a short bit away from us.*
Did you fake it just to break another stranger in your bed?
Was it worth it? Was it perfect when you up and left me cynical?
Like you planned it, you're a bandit.
Just a no good, two-bit, filthy, rotten criminal.
*kids started to push me to the front*

Did you mean it? Could you feel it when you broke into my head?
(I couldn't keep you honest, babe)
Did you fake it just to break another stranger in your bed?
*they pulled her back and put her on stage where she ran over to Alex*
(Cause I was just a pawn you played)
Was it worth it? Was it perfect when you up and left me cynical?
(I couldn't keep you honest, babe)
Like you planned it, you're a bandit.
Just a no good, two-bit, filthy, rotten criminal.
*She leaned on Alex out of breath*

"Thank you so much everyone. This was the best experience of my life" she said going to head off. That Jack guy came over and hugged her, and kissed her head what is going on with them who cares I am going to the meet, and greet making him forget her she'll be alone, and more fun to mess up even more finally she'll be done with it all.
