OHIO'S OWN REVISED
Summary: Finn Hudson and Blaine Anderson, two of the most well known names in music, hailing from Columbus, Ohio the two are now on their world tour, when they meet Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel.
CHAPTER ONE: TICKETS AND TOUR BUSES
Kurt Hummel and Rachel Berry were sat in their small Manhattan apartment watching interviews on Entertainment Tonight when someone knocked on the door. With a groan Kurt got up and let Sam and Mercedes in, Sam had an envelope in his left hand and his one year old daughter in his right arm.
"Hey Sam, hey Cedes, what brings you guys here?" Kurt asked taking Kaitlyn from her dad and into his own arms.
"Well dear friend of mine, you remember that contest we had about a month ago? For the Ohio's Own tickets?" Sam asked dropping onto the couch next to Rachel.
"Yeah what about it? You're not here to tell us we lost are you?" Kurt replied looking at Sam seriously. Sam worked at a local radio station CWYZ 98.7 FM, and a few weeks previously they had held a contest for two tickets to the Ohio's Own concert here in New York, Ohio's Own were a band fresh out of Columbus, Ohio, who found fame through YouTube quicker than Justin Bieber. The band consisted of Blaine Anderson and Finn Hudson. They had been Rachel, Kurt and Mercedes' favourite band since their first video on YouTube.
"Actually I came to give you this, empty it out on the table." Sam said with a grin. Kurt took the envelope and poured its contents out onto the glass coffe table. A letter slid out followed by two strips of glossy paper and two two lynyards with cards inserted into them. Kurt and Rachel leant forward and looked carefully at the items on the table. In front of them laid two tickets labled:
OHIO'S OWN
W/ SOUTHERN BELLE
JULY 2ND 2014
DOORS OPEN 7:00 PM
PRESENTED BY CWYZ 98.7 FM
The two sat up pin straight and turned to Sam who sat grinning like a cheshire cat.
"There's more, read the letter, and no it isn't from the radio station, trust me." he commented simply as Kaitlyn crawled into his lap. Kurt picked up the letter and began reading it out loud.
"Hey Kurt and Rachel,..."
Congratulations on winning the tickets and VIP Backstage Passes! We're excited to see you guys after the show and have a little chat with you, it'll be great. Now, a bit of information, your seats are front row center, so you'll see us pretty good... we'll make sure we dress nice. Sorry that the letter is so short, we will have more to say on show night, we promise!
Once again Congratulations to you both!
Blaine Anderson and Finn Hudson
OHIO's OWN
"Oh my god this is great! You guys are coming too right?" Rachel asked looking at Sam and Mercedes.
"Girl of course we are! That's my favourite band right there! Our seats are right next to yours, Sam here is interviewing them on the 4th." Mercedes grinned, the concert was in two days on the Friday.
"What a way to start the summer huh?" Kurt chuckled as he put the tickets, letter and passes into the envelope and stuck them to the fridge.
"You bet, we'll be lining up around three, and I know that sounds early, but trust me, with this concert, we'll want to be early." Sam explained. Kurt and Rachel nodded. "So meet us there at three, see you guys then if we don#t see you before."
"Alright, bye guys!"
"See you later." Once the door was closed Kurt and Rachel went to bed excited for the start of summer and the upcoming weekend.
Friday rolled around and Finn Hudson was sat at the table on the bus looking out of the window as the sun slowly rose over the horizon. Blaine slowly padded out of his small room on the bus with his curly hair stood up in all directions.
"How come you, of all people are up this early?" he asked sitting down with a heaping pile of lucky charms.
"First stop on our first ever tour, too excited. That and I've never been to New York." Finn said with a smile as he reached over and took a marshmellow from Blaine's bowl.
"How many times have I told you not to do that?" Blaine sighed shaking his head and continuing his eating. Finn laughed and grabbed his laptop to do his usual morning social network browsing.
"Hey Blaine, Kurt Hummel, he's the one who won the contest here right? Him and Rachel Berry?"
"eah eye." Blaine said around a mouth full of food.
"I'm on Twitter and he mentioned the band in a tweet, it says 'Great start to the summer, OhiosOwn concert tonight! It'll be great!' I'm going to reply to him, man I'm pumped for tonight!" Finn said excitedly as he typed, Blaine laughed pulling on his glasses to read the paper.
"Yeah it's gonna be totally awesome." Blaine exclaimed as the bus begand to slow down and the on the bus intercom buzed on and Mike, the bus driver, spoke over it.
"Guys, we're driving into New York City right now, we'll be at the venue in twenty, if you want a good view of this get to the front." his vioce informed them.
"Coming Mike!" the two yelled jumping up and running to the front and bursting through the divider door. They fell onto the bench seat beside Mike and watched as the city unfolded in front of them. Skyscrapers loomed over them and cars lined the streets already.
"Toto, I have the feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." Blaine said in amazement.
"Huh?" Finn asked, a confused look on his face at Blaine's comment.
"Wizard of Oz reference Finn." Blaine laughed, Mike grinned, trying not to laugh at the two men, slowly the bus slowed down and stopped in front of the venue as Tina, their tour manager, jumped onto the bus.
"Morning boys! Alright now come on, off the bus and inside, this show is officially on the road!" she grined pushing them off of the bus and into the venue to look at the stage set up for the rehearsal.
