"So, we'll see you guys at the party?" Kendall asks.
"Yes," Jo says, smiling.
"Alright, bye!" Kendall says happily, kissing Jo once more.
"Who should we ask next?" Kendall questions me as we walk away.
"What about Jade, Megan and Keri?" I suggest. Kendall nods and leads the way to Jade.
We find her running around the track.
"Hey! Jade!" I call, watching her stop quickly.
"Yes?" she asks.
"Would you like to come to our party?" Kendall asks smoothly.
"Sure. When is it?"
"Friday, in the apartment, at 6 and it lasts all night, or until you leave," he smiles.
"Okay," she says. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'd like to get back to running."
"Bye," he says, smiling. "Now who?" he asks.
"Megan," I state happily. When I first moved here, she and Keri were extremely nice to me. So, I've always considered them good friends. Don't get me wrong, I like Jade, too, but we don't talk as often as Megan, Keri and I do. We find Megan sitting by the pool with Jo, the Jennifer's, Camille and Stephanie.
"Hey Megan," I smile.
"Hey!" she says a bit too loudly.
"Will you quiet down?" the blonde Jennifer says angrily.
"Oh shut up miss prissy," I say. Megan laughs.
"So what did you need?" Megan asks.
"I was wondering, well, Kendall was wondering, do you want to come to his party?"
"Will Carlos be there?" she says.
"Of course," I laugh.
"Then yes!"
"It's Friday, in the apartment, at 6," Kendall quickly adds.
"Okay!" she says happily.
"C'ya!" I say and walk off to find Keri with Kendall. We find her sleeping in a chair by the pool.
"Keri, wake up," I shake her.
"Mmmm," she groans.
"Get up," I say, shaking hera little bit harder.
"What?" she says sitting up.
"Kendall is having a party,"
"Oh," she says, pulling her bikini top down a little bit.
"And I was wondering if you wanted to come?" Kendall asks.
"Sure," she says lazily.
"It's Friday, in the apartment, at 6."
"Mhm," she says. "Can I go back to sleep now?"
"Sure," I say. "Bye."
"Are we done?" Kendall asks.
"I don't know. Are we?"
"Yeah," he says. "Do you want to come back to the apartment with me?"
"Sure," I agree. "Who's all there?"
"The usual. James, Logan, Carlos, mom and Katie." I nod and start walking back to his apartment.
We finally arrived when my phone rang. It was my manager.
"Cheye!" Effie screams in the phone.
"Whoa, Effie, quiet down, hun."
"Sorry." She clears her throat. "The Midway wants you to play for them. You know, your band? That you have been neglecting?"
"I have not been neglecting them!"
"Whatever you say, but they want to do to strictly covers. The bands they want to the songs to be from are: Forever The Sickest Kids, Alesana, All Time Low, Bring me The Horizon and Mayday Parade."
"But all those bands have guys as lead singers. I'll have to change the lyrics from like her to him, or whatever."
"So? You want a gig, don't you?"
"Yes, Effie, I do," I say through my teeth.
"Then get over it and do it."
"Fine," I say. "When is it?"
"Tonight. At eight." I look at the clock.
"It's six already!"
"Then get ready," she says, and hangs up.
"Sorry guys, I have to go. I have a gig tonight at eight."
"Could we come?" Carlos asks.
"Sure. Can you drive me to the Midway?"
"Isn't that a bar?" Logan asks.
"Um, yeah."
"Then how could we get in?" James asks.
"Fake IDs."
"Isn't that illegal?" Logan says, anxiety colors his voice.
"Yeah. So?"
"I gotta get new friends," Logan mumbles under his breath.
"Ready?" Kendall asks.
"Yes," I say, pushing my black bangs to the side.
"Get in the car," Kendall says, gently shoving me towards the door.
WHEN WE ARRIVE~
Effie pushes me on stage.
"What am I supposed to sing?"
"Any songs from the bands they want." I nod and walk up to the mike.
"Hello, guys, we're Horizon of Doubt. Our first song we will be singing is My Worst Nightmare by Forever the Sickest Kids. And yes, I changed the lyrics a bit because me singing about a girl would be somewhat awkward."
"Whoo Horizon of Doubt!" someone screams from the crowd.
"Our first song will be My Worst Nightmare by Forever the Sickest Kids." I smile as my other bands members play the opening chords.
"I shoulda known better not to wait around. Why did I come home?"
"Because I hate it here," my backup singer sings. (Haha obviously.)
"I shoulda known better not to wait around. I'm getting rid of my phone."
"And I made it clear."
"I shoulda known better not to wait around." I wait for my cue to start singing again. "Never did, never did I love anyone other than you. But secretly I always want to see you cry so I push you until you do. I shoulda never came, I shoulda never, shoulda never came to you, you insisted for me to. Crossed the line and didn't mean to. I take it back. If I thought I'd make it work. Never did, but I meant to. I, I, I give up… I never did what you said that I did, when I was gone for so long. I never said what you did was either right or wrong. It's wrong. You dreamt of her.*" I wait for my part to come back in, feeling the rhythm of the music.
"If it's just me, adjust me baby. Find the words that define these feelings. Don't roll your eyes when you look at me, hard to talk when you're looking at the ceiling. Push through; push through baby, everything we've been through lately. I'll be there when you close your eyes. Hold you tight; say goodnight. I never did what you said that I did, when I was gone for so long. I never said what you did was either right or wrong. It's wrong. You dreamt of her.* I never did what you said that I did, when I was gone for so long. I never said what you did was either right or wrong. It's wrong. You dreamt of her.* I, I needed, I, I, I needed someone to talk to and you, you needed, you you, you needed me to hold you. I, I needed, I, I, I needed someone to talk to and you, you needed, you, you, you needed me to hold you. I never did what you said that I did, when I was gone for so long. I never said what you did was either right or wrong. It's wrong. You dreamt of her.* I never did what you said that I did, when I was gone for so long. I never said what you did was either right or wrong. It's wrong. You dreamt of her.*" I exhaled as everyone clapped and cheered.
I'll do other songs in the the next chapter. * = I changed HIM to HER.
