After breakfast he headed back over the aquarium so the boys could warm up acoustically before it opened to the public. The only available area that was semi private for the warm ups, was in the back of the aquarium, by the dock. The boys had no other choice but to take that opportunity to practice quickly before it hit 9am.
While the band practices or warm ups before a show, I always sit by and watch. I'm usually centered right in between their congregation on stage, or sometimes, if the show is in an arena, I will sit in the first row. After all the practicing is said and done, I give pointers and tips about their practice performance. Times like these are when I feel like a little helper of the bands'. Today's practice was short, sweet, and simple. Two songs on acoustic guitar, just enough warming up to stretch out Joe and Nick's vocals.
I was excited for the show to start at noon. My mind was on Natalie though, the blonde girl from the dream. I wonder if she was going to show up today. Joe did tell her it was at the pier, at noon. Part of me couldn't wait until noon to arrive, just so I could see if she ended up showing up, and the other part of me wanted to stay clear from the crowd, not wanting to run into the girl of Joe's sexual tension in my dream. To be honest, I have no idea why I felt so anxious towards her in the first place. I was over the idea of ignoring Joe, since that was just humanly impossible for me. Joe was like a brother to me, and that's all he will ever be towards me. I suppose I was just looking out for him, though it didn't feel like it one hundred percent. The only thing I knew was that I wanted her to stay away from Joe, as far away as possible really. And the very last thing I wanted to be brought up was Natalie. I didn't want Joe even mentioning her name. But of course, my wish did not come true.
