Okay the reason I haven't been updating is because I am editing the 6 chapters because to be honest I could do better so sorry! :)
I'm still making this chapter short though as I can't really add much on to it besides Eve's constant babbling. :D
Chapter 1- Take a deep breath.
10...9...8...7...6...5...
'Eve, what are you doing?' asked Kim hesitantly
Crap, lost it.
Curse you Kim.
'Just getting ready, you know warming up, relaxing and stuff' I muttered towards her, looking down at my mud stained boots hoping she would leave me alone.
'Oh sorry I interrupted, just wanted to let you know I'll be at the back with Jared and his friends' She said cheerfully, even if she mentions her boyfriends name she has a look on her face like it's freaking Christmas already.
I quickly glanced up at her and she smiled at me with her perfectly white teeth,
damn do they like floss every minute?
Even the old men around here have pearly whites, it's not normal.
While debating this, Kim looked at me expectantly waiting for a response
'I don't think I'll see you Kim, I mean have you seen the size of those guys?' I said half-heartedly, I really wasn't in the mood to talk.
Your never in the mood
True.
Kim just laughed but she noticed the look on my face and gave me a more serious look
'Eve are you sure you want to do this? I mean you've only just arrived, I don't want to pressure you or anything, just want you to be happy and...' Kim started babbling which she normally does when she's upset
'Kim...KIM. I'm fine please don't get upset, I'm just nervous, it's just that I haven't done this in years, now run along to your monster of a boyfriend and let me relax' I tried to say it as nicely as possible given as I really wanted a moment or two by my self.
She smiled weakly at me, showing off her smile.
I felt a pang of jealously
I've spent years trying to convince Kim that she has an amazing smile and that she should use it more often
Guess my fucking advice worked
I really should stop giving advice.
' Your right, Good luck and er... break a leg?' Kim glanced at me with a brief smile she pushed past the red curtain and with that she was gone.
Break a leg?
Who says stuff like that?
Stop being a bitch
But I am a bitch
Stop having an argument with yourself
Sorry.
I let a out a quiet sigh trying not to think about what I will be doing for the next hour or that 'Jared and friends' will all be silently judging me seeing if I worthy of Kim's friendship. Or at least that what I thought, it's not like I've talked to them or even seen them properly.
Earlier I was tempted to push past the red curtain to see how large the crowd was but I thought that would be a bad idea, don't wont to freak myself out anymore than I already have.
Relax Eve, your just about to sing in front of a small crowd, sort of, you've done it before. Just breathe. Count. Do your usual crap.
Nothings better than giving yourself a little pep talk.
'Now please welcome a new girl around here with a great voice, Eve Winters, enjoy the show!' shouted a middle aged man named Tim, was it? Who gave me this stupid gig in the first place well actually Kim did...
'Eve?' Tim's voice murmured to me. Oh shit I have just been standing there like an idiot. I smiled at the crinkled tanned man's face and ran up to stool where my beloved guitar was pressed gently against it. During the whole run up I was taking quick breaths, trying to calm myself down.
4...3...2...1.
