Adrian's Story Chapter 13: The Concert, a vampire academy fanfic

Disclaimer: I don't own VA. I seriously can't afford to get sued.

A/N: This is it! The final show down. Not really the last chapter, that's up to you guys and the reviews. Try to keep up with this chapter. It jumps back and forth from Ayden to Adrian. Please enjoy. Thanks for the reviews! Fills me up with goodness! ^_^

Ayden was back stage with the band, waiting for their cue to come on stage. She was nervous. She wasn't sure if he'd be in the audience, but she had a pretty good feeling that he was. She knows Lissa and Rose were here, and wherever Lissa is Christian is too. So at least she has some fans out there.

She could hear the crowd roaring with excitement. This was big. She took big, deep breaths to calm her nerves. She hadn't preformed in front of a crowed in months, maybe even a year. She shook her hands, out of routine. The stage guy then handed her the guitar. She smiled a thanks to him as he helped strap it on her. She gave him a thumbs up to let him know she was good.

"You nervous?" Nelly asked coming up behind her. Ayden smiled at her best friend.

"A little." She admitted.

"Since this is our opening night, I don't blame you." Nelly said. Ayden nodded.

"Nelly, I just want to say I'm sorry." Ayden said. Nelly looked at her confused.

"Why?" she asked.

"Because of all this! The drama, for postponing your show, and I'm sorry, but I might leave the band." Ayden said. Nelly shook her head in disbelief.

"Why are you leaving the band?" she asked.

"Because I want to be with Adrian." Ayden's voice was small, but strong. She knew that what she had just said seemed stupid, but it wasn't to her. Nelly smiled at her.

"Why don't we compromise? You stay with the band until the tour is over, and Adrian can come with us." she said. Ayden's eyes widened.

"You'd seriously let him come with us?" she asked. Nelly nodded.

"He'd keep the boys company." she said. Ayden smiled and nodded, but then thought of a complication.

"What about Derek?" Ayden asked.

"If the guy is helping you win Adrian back, then I think he has the balls to get over you." Nelly said. Ayden nodded still unsure. "Just don't start making out in front of him." Nelly added. Ayden nodded again, but this time a little more confident in the plan. Then she sighed.

"This is if I get him back." she said. Nelly took her by the shoulders.

"Ayden, you will get him back. No guy could ever just blow you off with how your looking right now. Even if he were gay. I'm telling you right now, that every guy is drooling over you." Nelly said. Her statement made Ayden blush. Sure she was over exaggerating, but still.

Ayden was waring a tight black shirt that showed off all her curves, with a nice open purple sweater over it. Her jeans were black, that fit her butt. Her hair flowed down in waves with the top layer clipped back in a half up style. Almost like it was at the first concert, but this time there was more color. Maurice had dyed parts of her hair a light purple and blue that showed against her dark hair. Her bangs came down across her face, but positioned so it wasn't in her face. Briel had done a fabulous job on her make up. Black eye liner, dark purple eye shadow, smokey look of course. Her lips full with a nice shade of pink. She looked totally hot.

"Thanks Nelly." Ayden said. She hugged Ayden with a huge smile. Then Luke came by.

"Hey, girls. Ready? Five seconds 'till show." he announced. The girls nodded and got ready to go on stage.

Adrian stood in position. Lissa and Christian just came back and gave him the thumbs up. Adrian nodded at the both of them. Rose and Dimitri were probably still up in the control booth. He was amazed out how Dimitri didn't question his motives. He guessed he would have done the same for Rose. Mia was in the control booth. She was the one Adrian was relying on. She was the whole show. Adrian looked up at the control booth. Mia waved at him, and gave him a thumbs up. He could see Rose and Dimitri guarding. Adrian nodded at Mia, letting her know he was ready.

"And now, put your hands together for, the one band you all love! The Night Crawlers!" the announcer said. Adrian looked up to see the band getting up on stage.

He saw Robby sit at his drums. Then he saw Celia get behind her piano. Then he saw Luke come out with his violin. Then he saw Derek strap on his base. Then Nelly came out. She didn't hold her guitar, she held nothing. She walked right up to the mic.

"Are you guys ready to rock?" she shouted into the mic. The crowed cheered. "I said; are you guys ready to rock?" she shouted louder. The crowed cheered louder. She laughed. "Alright! How you guys doing tonight?" she asked. The crowed went wild. "You guys are awesome!" she said.

Adrian couldn't see Ayden. Were was she? Wasn't she supposed to be up there with the band?

"Before we get started." Nelly said. "I'd like to introduce you to a very special friend. This person is the band's best friend. This person has been with the band sense the beginning. If you all would welcome her with open arms. Please say hello to, Ayden Fairmont!" she announced, motioning over to the side.

Adrian then saw Ayden come out on stage. All of his male hormones blazed. Adrian's jaw dropped at the site of her. Just looking at her was giving him blue balls. The way her pants fit her ass, the way her shirt showed her curves. Adrian took a quick intake of breath to calm himself down. He watched as Ayden waved at the crowed, her beautiful smile on her face.

"Ayden will be going on tour with us." Nelly said. "But that's not it!" she added. Ayden looked at her with a curious smile. "Today is her birthday!" Nelly shouted. Ayden kept the smile on her face, but it was obvious she wasn't happy about it. "So I want to wish her a very happy birthday, by letting her give you guys a kick ass show!" Nelly said. The crowed shouted happy birthday, and went wild.

"Thanks you guys. Hope you enjoy the show." Ayden said into the mic. Then she went to her spot on stage. She looked at Robby, and nodded. He smiled and raised his drum sticks. He beat them together. Then Ayden started the song.

{Fallen Away, by Marion Raven}

He comes to me
He comes to me and I'm already gone
He doesn't see
He doesn't see that we're hanging on

Blocking out the pieces of today
Trying to get back to yesterday

We're falling away
And there's nothing left but rain
No there's nothing left here
All I hear is silence as I say
We're falling away
We're falling away

Falling away

I go to him
I go to him and he's not really there
We can't begin
We can't begin to go anywhere

All is done, there's nothing left to say
Memories of his smile fade to gray
We're falling away
And there's nothing left but rain
No there's nothing left here
All I hear is silence as I say
We're falling away

And how can we care
When it is so clear
That we're not ending up where we're supposed to be
Let's just forget now
Let's forget somehow
Let's not regret all the things that we used to be

My eyes still blur
My eyes still blur from refusing to see
I'm just not sure
I'm just not sure that we're meant to be

We're falling away
And there's nothing left but rain
No there's nothing left here
All I hear is silence as I say
We're falling away
We're falling away

All I hear is silence as I say
We're falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away

Adrian watches as the smile on Ayden's face widens. She really does love playing. Adrian couldn't help but smile. He knew that with Ayden, he'd always be smiling. He looked up at the control booth to give Mia the signal, but the Nelly said something that caught his attention.

"Now, for the next song. Ayden would like to sing. She doesn't normally do this, but I'm helping her make emends." she said. Then Ayden traded off the guitar for the mic. She smiled at Nelly and took center stage.

"Hey guys. I know this a little bit of a mix up, but please bare with us." she said. She got hoots and hollers. The people loved her. Adrian smiled. Then Ayden continued. "I dedicate this song to a very special someone, who is very close to my heart. I shouldn't have ever let this person go, it was a huge mistake. So if he's out there, please listen to this song, and forgive me, Adrian." she said. Adrian could hear that her voice was a little shaky, but it wasn't from the nerves. She looked ready to cry. Ayden turned back to the band and nodded so they could play.

{Had It All, by Kathrine McPhee}

Why'd i have to go and be a fool again
Why'd i have to go and make a big thing outta nothing
I didn't know what i had
'til you were gone
It was right in front of me
All along
And now those days a same old story
I'm feelin' more like faded glory

I had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinkin' there was more there i needed to find
I had it all baby
To give it away
Blue skies sunshine and butterflies
Those were the conditions that i left behind
Why did i let it go to waste
I had it all

So where are all the fireworks i thought I'd see
I still haven't found the magic i was lookin' for that made me leave
Oh no
I traded in my comfort zone
For empty nights of bein' alone

Why did i believe that a little voice
Led me down the path to this bad choice
Why don't i listen to the angels
When they sing oh yeah they sing
Oh yeah oh

By the end of the song Adrian was crying. He never knew that Ayden felt that way. He thought she hated his guts. He knew now, that what he was about to do was going to be worth it. He signaled up to Mia, and she nodded, she was also crying. Then the lights on stage went dim, and the crowed cheered their freaking heads off. Then slowly, a beam of light shown on Adrian. He looked up on stage, his gaze locked on Ayden. He raised the mic in his hands to his mouth.

Ayden's breath caught at the site of him. Her stomach flew up to her chest. This was so not happening, was it? She couldn't believe what she was seeing. She saw Adrian raise a mic to his mouth. She waited for him to say something, but instead he started to sing. He started to sing the happy birthday song, no music in the background, just his voice. Although he was a bit off on a few notes, Ayden couldn't help but smile in disbelief.

Adrian saw her smile, and his heart stopped beating. He continued to sing as he walked towards stage. The crowed parted as they saw who was singing. A few smiles, a few shocked faces, and some just pure entertained. Adrian walked on stage and faced Ayden as the end of the song came. Ayden was just staring at him now, she looked him up and down. He didn't pay any attention to the rest of the band, all he saw at the moment was Ayden.

Ayden reminded herself to breath. She stared into Adrian's green eyes. The eyes that she loved so much. She looked at the man that she loved so very much. She couldn't help the feeling inside her as she looked him up and down. He was in his usual attire. Black dress shirt, sexy messy hair, jeans, all his godly sexiness. As Adrian ended the song, she could feel her eye's start to prickle. She couldn't cry, no matter what.

Adrian finished the song, and stared at the woman who held his heart. He looked into her dark eyes. He could get lost in them for days. He wanted to reach out to her. To caress that beautiful face, to kiss those full lips. But he probably get slapped for that. He smiled down at her, and started to speak.

"Happy birthday Ayden." he began. Ayden stayed quiet. "I want you to know, that I did listen to your song, and I loved it." he said. A hint of a smile came across her face. "I also want you to know that, if anyone needs to be forgiven, it's me. I did something stupid, and I hurt you. But please understand that I've been beating myself over that sense it happened. I love you Ayden, with all my heart. Please forgive me." he said. The crowed let out a few "awe". Ayden looked at him.

"You know you did hurt me, really badly." she said. Adrian nodded.

"I know, and I'm sorry. But I've never done anything like this for a girl, except for you. Ayden I love you and I promise, if you give me a second chance," Ayden stopped his rambling.

"You didn't let me finish." she said. He stayed quiet. "What hurt me more, was leaving you." she said. More awe's from the audience. "Adrian, no guy has gone to such lengths to get me back." Ayden went on. "But your not just any guy. You're my guy." she said. Adrian smiled.

Ayden got up on her toes and brought Adrian in for a hug. Adrian immediately wrapped his arms around her. Feeling her familiar presence. He hugged her tighter, swearing never to let her go. Then, from the crowed, came one word.

"KISS!" someone shouted. Then they started to chant it. "KISS! KISS! KISS! KISS!" Well the two didn't want to disappoint the fans.

Adrian pulled back and took Ayden's face into his hands. She smiled up at him. He smiled back. He leaned down, and placed his lips to her's. She kissed him back, more passionately then she ever had before. She wrapped her arms around his neck, as he pulled her closer to him. The crowed was going wild!

When the two pulled back they smiled at each other, both so full of love, they had to say it.

"I love you." Adrian said. Ayden's heart skipped like five beats.

"I love you too." she said. Adrian smiled down at her, his heart beating so fast he might die. He brought her in for a second kiss.

This was the best concert of their lives.
