"Can you here my echo, echo."
I stood in the backstage peeking at the enormous crowd. My sister was on my left, Echo, and my best friend on my right, Faith. Faith was unknown to me. I glanced around the crowd. "Ever." My sister glanced at me. She was only 15. Nevertheless, a sophisticated 15. She had strawberry blonde straight mid back length hair in a high ponytail. No bang, fair skin, and emerald green eyes. "Where's Faith?" I ask, closing the curtain.
Faith stepped forward. "Here" She smiled sweetly.
Faith had short wavy red hair to her shoulders, pale skin, and emerald green eyes. She was oldest. She will be 18 by tomorrow. She looked the part of it as well. She was pretty. Faith is very pretty to be exact.
Therefore, that leaves me.
My name is Ever. I do not think too much of my appearance but I will describe it to you from the basics. I have mid back length jet black hair with neon blue highlights, tan skin, and emerald green eyes. Unlike Faith, they are natural. I can be sweet, yet people tell me I can be stubborn. I am only 17 years old. Living my life to the fullest is my motto. And I am. Faith, Echo, and I are a girl group. Cheesy really. However, everyone loves us. Today was our final concert. We decided to disband after the death of my parents. They had died in a car accident 7 months ago. And nothing has been right. I believe we were supposed to die but somehow a miracle happen and we survived, along with our little sister Evelyn. Faith has to go to college anyway.
Singing was a big passion of mines as well as the rest of us. It came naturally. It was a miracle that I met faith the day of our audition to be in this group. We became friends on the spot. There was another member.
Ashlyn. She was gorgeous. Ashlyn has blonde curly hair, tan skin, and crystal blue eyes. The sweetest person you would ever meet. What happened to her was horrible. My mother helped us cope with the lost of our friend. Ashlyn died the night after our biggest concert. She was killed. Ashlyn had been gun down by some unknown person a year ago. The odd thing about it is, the person was never found. They gave up on finding him. Mother named Evelyn after Ashlyn. All our names were unique in a way. After Ashlyn died, everything seemed to begin falling. Like someone planned everything about us. It got scary to a point. I thought I was being followed one night, to only find out my parents was killed in a car accident the next.
Somehow, we are dealing. Echo and I are planning to move to California to live with our aunt. After tonight, our singing career is over.
"Ever." Echo glared at me. I zoned out again.
"It's time to end this." Faith smiled sadly.
All three of us took one another hands. We put our heads together.
"This is it." Faith smiled.
"May we come together if we get the chance to sing again. Together!" Echo grin at Faith.
"Blue!" giggled Ever.
"Yellow!" yelp Echo, happily.
"Orange." Smirked Faith.
"You guys are weird." Said our manager as she walked passed us.
We all burst into laughter.
"I'm going to miss this." Faith stood up straight. We did the same.
"You? I'm going to cry so much tonight." Echo hugged herself.
"Let's give everyone a hell of a show. And I mean it." I smirked.
"On three." Faith smiled at me.
"Three!" Echo grinned.
"I guess on one." I sighed.
"Two." Faith smirked at me.
"One!" I smiled at them both.
"Forever!" someone called. We all looked at the man we know. "It's Showtime, girls." He smirked.
Echo winked at us as she stepped out onto stage as Faith and I got into position on a different surface.
We heard Echo sing into the microphone. She sounded amazing.
I put my microphone to my mouth awaiting my turn. Faith winked at me as she began to lift to the surface of the stage.
Music began playing.
"Waited a long time for this,
Feels right now.." I heard Faith speak into the microphone.
"Uh, uh, ha. Allow me to introduce ourselves. I want you to come a little closer. I would like you to get to know us a little better. Meet the real us." Echo spoke into her microphone.
I felt myself lifting along with the lift. As I lifted, I began giving the crowd a taste of what they were in stored for. Our introduction.
"Sorry I ain't perfect
Sorry I ain't give a (what?)
Sorry I ain't a diva
Sorry, Just know what I want
Sorry I'm not virgin
Sorry I'm not a slut
I won't let you break me
Think what you want
Oh eh Oh." I sang.
"Sorry you can't defy me
Sorry I break the mold
Sorry that I speak my mind
Sorry, Don't do what I'm told
Sorry If I don't fake it
Sorry I come so real
I will never hide what I really feel
No eh oh
Hmm, So here it is
No hype, no gloss, no pretense
Just me." I sang confidently as I walked down the middle, center stage singing.
"So here, it is no height, no gloss, and no pretense. It's us, Forever."
The crowd erupted into cheering.
I hugged Faith one last time, really the fifth time. I know she is probably tired of my hugs.
"I'm seriously gonna miss you, Fai." I smiled sadly at her.
"Me too. I promise to visit you guys in Cali." Faith hugged her back, smiling. Her ride pulled up.
"We'll miss you so much!" Echo hugged her.
Faith blinked back tears. "I'll see you guys later." She ran to her ride, tears falling.
She gave one last wave before getting into the limo. Echo hugged herself to me.
"Ladies, your flight." Said their manager. Echo and I looked at him before nodding.
"Let's go, Eva." Echo said.
My still echo, echo…
