THE REAL THING...

'It's my first time here' I thought. I was at the center of a very big stadium with so much people in it. It's like, it's gonna vomit all the people. If there's anyone here who's got a terroristic mind, it might get to his head that this is a very great place to plant a bomb.

Okay, enough with the psychopathic-mind-thing.

Today's July 11, 2009. I'm here in this stadium because of my bestfriend, Gray. She's an addict. Not into drugs.

She's addicted to this band since last year. After she heard their first very hit song (actually, after just two weeks I got tired of it because the radios won't stop playing it, it's like every hour, but it's a good song though) and knew who sang it, she won't stop pestering me. It's not a bad thing, she's my bestfriend and I know she's got that addicted-to-boyband-thing, it's just, it gets annoying after sometime.

So after 1 year of convincing me to come and see this band, as she calls it, I finally agreed just to shut her up.

"Gray! What time would this thing supposed to start?!" I was already almost yelling as I said it because of the loud screaming.

"Just a few more minutes! It's almost time!" she yelled back.

We were seated at the 3rd row on the center seats.

The lights went out. "What the?!" I was not expecting that. It was my first time in an event like this so I was pretty surprised when the lights went out. The screaming grew louder and louder.

"JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS! JONAS!"

"AAHHHHHHHHHHH! AAHHHHHHHHHHH! AAHHHHHHHHHHH! AAHHHHHHHHHHH!"

The sounds, chanting and screaming grew louder!

'Ok, so this' the start of it, I just have to endure it, for the sake of Gray' I told myself.

Then, there was the sound of the first chord of the song. And then it started.

Their opening song was "Paranoid", I really don't know the title of the song, I just figured it out because the fans won't stop chanting and screaming it. "Thank God, the lights are back" I told myself. Then, there stood at the center of the stage three teenage boys. At the center was the straight haired guy with the shades, and then at the two sides were his two curly brothers. I can't really remember their names. All I can remember is that they were called "The Jonas Brothers". They were named after their surname Jonas. Gray, again, told me that. She knows almost all the facts about the brothers. I don't have anything against them, I love music, but it's just too cheesy. Three goodlooking guys with an almost perfect fashion sense and a songs that are a really hit to teenage girls. Band as the fans call it but I would really refer them as a boyband. I don't have any grudge or secret hate to boybands, it's just as what I said earlier, too cheesy.

Then as the fans, including Gray, continue to scream and dance and sing-along with songs, I just sat there just listening to the songs and just watch as they performed. "they're actually not that bad. They sing with the band and play their own instruments. The older brothers plays the lead guitar, the middle brother sings the vocals and plays the tambourine and the youngest plays the guitar, drums and piano. Wow what an extra-talented guy. Playing three instruments in one concert. But still I consider them a boyband. I'm pretty sure they don't write their songs. I bet someone have written it for them.

After 2 hrs, they're already on the 2 last songs on the event. Turn Right and Black Keys. They were really energetic. It's like they don't get tired, even if 2 hrs had pass but they maintained the same energy they had when the concert was still starting. Ok, quite impressive. Some of the fans are now crying, including Gray.

"Hey? Why're you crying?! Is there anything that's bothering you?!" I asked her a little panicky because of tears streaming down her cheeks. "Hey?! GRAY? What's wrong..?"

"Nothing, I just got carried away by the songs. And ofcourse I just can't believe I'm facing them now. See them perform live! ohhhh! ASH!" she said to me.

"oh Gray, stop it. Alright, alright, I'm glad I came with you. I admit it they're good and they got my attention.." I told her, to stop her from crying, even though some of it was true though.

"Oh ASH! Thank you so much! For coming here with me! I really appreciate it! You are definitely the best friend in the whole universe!" she told me smiling widely.

"I already know that. Haha. Love you Gray!" I told her, this time it was all true. I really love this girl! She my best friend in the whole universe as well.

"I love you too ASH!" she told me back.

Finally the concert was over and the three brothers thanked the band and ofcourse the fans.

"This has been the greatest night ever! Thank you so much guys for always staying there to support us. You are the best fans in the whole world we wish we could come back here soon! We love you all guys..!" the older brother told the crowd, and he looked really sincere, so they really appreciate the effort of the fans.

"Goodnight guys! We hope you had a great night. We hope you enjoyed it! Thank you so much! Goodnight and thank you!" said the middle brother.

"Guys! You made this night possible! Thank you so much for always staying there for us! We really appreciate it. We hope you'll always stay there to support us! Thank You so much! And always remember! We LOVE YOU GUYS!", said the youngest one.

It made the fans scream more! Jump and cry! Wow! These boys really has charisma and all.

Then, they made there signature bow.

They held hand then raised it up and bowed simultaneously and then stood up again properly. And then they were gone.

As the people started to file out from the stadium, we remained on our seats. We waited until the crowd was thin enough for us to get out.

When we decided to get out we realized we have been there for almost an hour that only us were left inside the stadium.

We were to absorbed in our talk that we haven't got the track of time.

"HEY! It's almost midnight! Gray we have to go!" I told here as I stood up.

"Yeah! Time really fly when one's having fun!" she told me back. We stared at each other and both laughed.

As we prepared to get out, something caught my attention. Someone's playing an acoustic guitar backstage. It grabbed me from the present world. Someone's singing to it,

"Turn right, into my arms. Turn right, you won't be alone. You might, fall off this track sometimes, hope to see you on the finish line"

The singing stopped, someone's grabbing my hand. "Ash! Are you alright?! Hey!" Gray said trying to catch my attention. I was not listening to her. I stood up and started to walk towards the music I was hearing. I was approaching a door, with a sign "dressing room" on it. "Ash, what are you doing? Where are you going?" Gray tried to question me, but I was not paying her any attention. "Ashley!" she whispered to me, trying to grab my hand. The guitar sound grew louder and clearer. Then I heard a voice humming with it. The voice is cool and relaxing. It feels like I'm floating. The voice was very angelic. It has so much emotion flowing from it. It feels like I'm dreaming. Then I opened the door without knocking. The person playing is on his back when I entered. When he heard that someone is in the room, he stopped playing. Then I was back on the present. "Ashley!" Gray yelled after me. I turned to face her. "Huh?" I asked her confused. "Excuse me?!" the guy asked and then I turned to face him. Then, Gray gasped "hammp! NICK?!" she asked, shock. "Huh?!" I asked again, confused. I looked from Gray to the guy standing in front of me. I had really no idea what Gray was talking about. "Ashley you know him?!" she asked me. "Who?!" I asked her back. "Him!" she said pointing to the guy in front of me. "No. you know him?" I asked Gray. The guy seems confused just like I am. "It's NICK!" she told me. "HUH?" I asked her again. The guy called nick waved and smiled at us. Then I turned to face Gray again. "Nick who?!" I asked her. "Jonas! You idiot!" she told me amused and embarrassed.

Then something clicked in my mind. Oh! God! What the! I told myself. I wanted to run from the room and curse at myself. I am such an idiot!

I turned to face Nick. Now you know his name you idiot! He smiled at me. "Hi!" he told me. "Hello, I'm so sorry. So sorry. I didn't mean to invade you r privacy. I am so sorry. I hope you could forgive me.." I kept blabbing to hide my embarrassment, and humiliation. He smiled at me again amused and embarrassed, "It's ok…?" he looked at me with that what's-your-name look. "Ashley, Ashley McLoughlin" I told him. "It's ok Ashley, totally ok. No harm done. If there's anyone who should feel embarrassed, it should be me." He told us. "Huh? Why?" I asked him totally confused.

"I should've locked the door, it's my responsibility" he said sincerely. "No, it's not your fault, it's mine, I should knock before I enter I room, and I didn't do it. I invaded your privacy" I told him, a little irritated with what he said earlier. "So what can I do to mend what I did? Anything, then I'll make it up to you. I promise." I told him. "No, need for that I won't let you do anything for me." He told me. "No, no… I should do something. Don't argue! I want to do it." He looked at my bestfriend to ask for some help to stop me from doing things, but he was unsuccessful. Gray knows me, once I want to do something, nothing can stop me. "Okay, okay. I'll think about it. So Ashley and ?" "Gray, Gray McGreene" Gray told him. "So Ashley and Gray, especially you Ashley, before doing anything for me, would it be too much to invite both of you to dinner with my family?" he asked. I was surprised at how calm and respectful he is. "Sure, sure. We would like that. So much." Gray said before I could answer. He led us to the door, and opened it for us. "Thank you!" me and Gray said it at the same time. Then, when we were out of the stadium, Gray grabbed my and, "WHAT?"

"Don't ruin this, alright?!" she told me. "What would I ruin?!" I told her back.

"Just be good alright? This is the best gift you'll ever give to me! Have a dinner with the boys I admire the most?! It's like I'm dreaming!" she told me with so much excitement that I have to bite my lips to hold my laugh. "Is there any problem?" Nick asked us while opening the door of the car. "Nothing! I just said something to Ashley. Right Ashley?" Gray told nick while squeezing my hand tightly. "AW!" I whispered to her. "Yeah, Gray's just telling me something not so important." I told nick while glaring at my bestfriend. Nick just smiled and signaled us to climb in. So me and Gray looked at each other and decided to follow Nick's gesture.
