Hey guys. I'm so pissed. I had typed the chapter and everything deleted because my mom's stupid laptop has so much windows and stuff opened. I never saved so when I had a few more sentences let tit just deleted. Ugh. Sorry. Im just venting. Anyway, if you have any ideas for the story, let me know. Thanks for the reviews and comments, their always nice to see, Asher.
Chapter 8
Four's Point of View:
Fall Out Boy. My favorite band. Staying in the same hotel. In the same room. Staying in the same hallway as us. Helping us. Our mentors. Fall Out Boy is here! Tris and I share a knowing look as we walk over to them. Tris better know what to say because I am at a loss for words. They turn around just as we get close to them.
"Hey guys." Pete says.
"Yeah, what's up?" Patrick says.
"We're good, thanks for asking. How about you?"
"We're great, thanks. Its good to be back in our hometown for a few weeks instead of having to travel to so many places. We are still working but we can visit our families and friends." Andy says.
"You know, we listened to you music and watched your videos. They were great. I like the name, Dauntless. It makes sense and I can see your style matches the name too." Joe says pointing to our black clothing.
"Yeah we also watched your competition too just to get a feel for it. Your many competitors are Erudite and Abnegation." Andy says.
"Yeah, Amity is too happy. More for kids and stuff. Candor is too honest in their songs. They talk about the perfect girl or guy and when you listen to the words you get grossed out that you don't want to sing along." Pete says.
"I agree. The only reason Abnegation and Erudite are your main competitors is because their managers are out for blood. They don't play what they like. They play what's most popular. Abnegation is the slow songs. Best for special occasions and for adults. They love them. Erudite is all about technology. They think the world is changing so they are doing just that. But everyone loves it. They are starting to break away from the instruments. But you guys are better and will win this war. Its the battle of the bands right. Five Bands, One Week." Patrick says.
"Well thanks guys. It means a lot that you believe in us that much. How about you guys get situated and we will go back to our rooms. When your ready we can talk and you guys can meet the rest of the group." I say.
"Sounds good. We are staying across from you so we know where to go. We have a huge packet of information. I think we have to read it with you guys or something so we can do that over dinner." Pete says holding the big packet up.
We say goodbye and then head to our room. We can hear a faint yelling coming from our rooms and we laugh.
"I wonder if they even know we left." She says.
"Yeah, well lets find out." I say.
We count to three then open the doors quietly going to where we were last. I lay on my bed and text Tris.
Four: Well?
Tris: No idea I was ever gone. LOL. Hbu?
Four: same as you. Are they still yelling.
Tris: yeah, om going to stop it now
Four: me too
I put down my phone and grab the boys throwing them out the door. I see tris doing the same thing and we look at each other and laugh. We lock the doors so they can't come back in. I start diving the drawers to the dresser and throw their clothes inside. I put their shoes and sweatshirts in their section of the closet. After that I throw their bathroom stuff in their spot and head back into the room. I grab their bags that contains the rest of their stuff throwing it on their bed. I unlock the door and guys file in. They are still yelling and theres a faint yelling from the girls still outside when I close the door. I count down fro five in my head and the yelling stop as they look around and in the drawers.
"What " Zeke starts.
" The " Will says.
" Hell!" Uriah finishes.
I fixed it. The yelling outside stops but continues into the girls' room. In five seconds the yelling stops and soon the girls open the door between our rooms and sit on our beds. I sit down next to Tris on my bed and my arm brushes hers. Electricity runs through my arm and I quickly move over. She blushes and looks at me with those beautiful eyes. She gets a text and when she reads it, her face gets more red and she glares at Christina. I look away. I think I'm falling for Tris.
"So why did you guys do that?" Christina asks.
"Because we didn't want to hear you and I know the other guests, fans and Fall Out Boy did;t want to hear you either." I say.
"What did you just say?" Uriah says.
"That we did't want to hear you guys yelling." Tris replies smirking. I smirk too.
"No about Fall Out Boy. Are they here?!" Marlene shouts.
"Yup." Tris and I say.
We hear screams and questions and we zone out. When they quiet down expecting us to answer we don't know where to start so we just tell them what happened. Then, there's a knock at the door and I open it to see Fall Out Boy on the other side.
"Hey, welcome." I say.
"Hey Four, Tris, Dauntless. There's more than I thought." Pete says.
"Yeah, there's Tris and I the singers, guitar players and pianists, Zeke the bass, and Uriah, the drums. Then there's Will, our camera guy and sorta kinda our manager. Then there's the girls who are our designers and stuff." Tris says.
"Cool." They say. They walk in and stand by the door.
"So what was all the yelling about." Andy asks. Tris and I smirk. i'm about to answer but Tris beats me to it.
"Clothing and our own areas in the room." She says.
"Oh. I remember those days when we fought over stuff like that. Good times." Patrick says.
"Maybe for you." Andy and Joe say.
"Yeah we always won our play fights." Pete says high-fiving Patrick and they all laugh.
"Okay well I thought we could go to the recording studio down the hall so we could hear you guys in person." Pete says.
"Sounds great." I say and everyone nods following Fall Out Boy out the door.
When we get there, Zeke finally speaks up.
"How about you guys go first."
"Sure, why not?" Joe says.
They set up and when they start to play I immediately recognize the tune. Miss Missing You.
Don't Panic
No not yet
I know I'm the one you want to forget
Cue all the love to leave my heart
It's time for me to fall apart
Now your gone but I'll be okay
Your hot whiskey eyes can fan the flames
oh and i'll burn a little brighter tonight
Let you fire breathe me back to life
Baby you were my picket fence
I miss missing you now and then
Chlorine kissed, summer skin
I miss missing you now and then
Sometimes before it gets better
The darkness gets bigger
The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger
Oh, we're fading fast
I miss missing you now and then
They stop the song and we set up.
"That was great!" Tris says and we all nod in agreement. As we are deciding what song, I start the perfect song. I repeat the beginning and they join in the second time. It was great. The song is Love the way you Lie By Eminem and Rihanna. Tris sing Rihanna and plays piano and I rap Eminem's part.
Tris:
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Four:
I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there's a steel knife
In my windpipe
I can't breathe
But I still fight
While I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right
It's like I'm in flight
High of a love
Drunk from the hate
It's like I'm huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer
I sufficate
And right before im about to drown
She resuscitates me
She fucking hates me
And I love it
Wait
Where you going
I'm leaving you
No you ain't
Come back
We're running right back
Here we go again
It's so insane
Cause when it's going good
It's going great
I'm Superman
With the wind in his bag
She's Lois Lane
But when it's bad
It's awful
I feel so ashamed
I snap
Who's that dude
I don't even know his name
I laid hands on her
I'll never stoop so low again
I guess I don't know my own strength
Tris:
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Four:
You ever love somebody so much
You can barely breathe
When you're with them
You meet
And neither one of you
Even know what hit 'em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah them chills
Used to get 'em
Now you're getting fucking sick
Of looking at 'em
You swore you've never hit 'em
Never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's face
Spewing venom
And these words
When you spit 'em
You push
Pull each other's hair
Scratch, claw, bit 'em
Throw 'em down
Pin 'em
So lost in the moments
When you're in 'em
It's the rage that took over
It controls you both
So they say it's best
To go your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
Cause today
That was yesterday
Yesterday is over
It's a different day
Sound like broken records
Playin' over
But you promised her
Next time you'll show restraint
You don't get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave
Out the window
Guess that's why they call it window pane
Tris:
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Four:
Now I know we said things
Did things
That we didn't mean
And we fall back
Into the same patterns
Same routine
But your temper's just as bad
As mine is
You're the same as me
But when it comes to love
You're just as blinded
Baby please come back
It wasn't you
Baby it was me
Maybe our relationship
Isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe that's what happens
When a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is
I love you too much
To walk away though
Come inside
Pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don't you hear sincerity
In my voice when I talk
Told you this is my fault
Look me in the eyeball
Next time I'm pissed
I'll aim my fist
At the dry wall
Next time
There will be no next time
I apologize
Even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the games
I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to fucking leave again
I'mma tie her to the bed
And set the house on fire
Tris:
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
We finish the song and everyone claps. Fall Out Boy gives us tips but not many. Just a few things. We all head back into our rooms and get to bed. I lay in my bed thinking of the competition and how I know we are going to win. We have to. But most of all, I think of Tris. I mean, How could I not. But I'm scared to ask her out. What if she doesn't have the same feelings. I guess I'm going to have to find out.
Remember, send me any ideas you have. Whether they are songs or things to do. We will be playing truth or dare soon so send me your truths and dares. Thanks guys, Asher.
