Description
The rush of the crowd. The heat of the lights. The sound of music echoing off the walls and hit us over and over again with each note. The smell of musk from the bodies dancing before the stage. The lights blinding your vision. I loved the sense of it. I loved being on stage and playing music. My music that I wrote for my band and play it for people to enjoy. My fingers played the chords that Aio had wrote for the songs I wrote. Her voice sang the lyrics with emotion. Kair banged the drums to the rythem. Jill sat in a lumbered postion playing the bass line to the song, giving it balance. We were yin and yang in this place. An even balance of chaos and calmness. Nothing really mattered except the music.
"Soft red lips,
that remind me of strawberry roses,
brush up against mine.
Like heated death and frozen anger creating chemistry between you and me."
Aio played back up guitar behind the beat of my guitar, but sang the lyrics upfront while I sang on the back up. We were dressed for the part.
Aio's long black hair flowed like her black mini vampire dress with red trim on it and leather boots. Fake fangs showed over her teeth, but did not harm her singing.
Kair's dirty blounde hair was short to her shoulders. She had on a black spagetti strap with black booty shorts and thigh high boots matching Aio's.
Jill had blounde hair that was up in a messy bun with peices of hair sticking out. She had on a purple corest and mini skirt with black heels.
I had long red hair in a ponytail with bangs over my eyes, that didn't harm my playing. I had on a black hoodie with a red shirt underneath and black jeans with converse.
We each had our own thing. At times we tried to match for our concerts, but sometimes Aio and Kair would fight for hours as Jill and I practiced and waitted to go on stage.
"Your golden eyes hold me,
you silver fangs love me,
making my heart go wild.
Somewhere for us where werewolves howl,
witches cackle,
and vampire kisses prowl.
These are the keys of my world."
The bodies started to catch onto the song and sing along. What I hoped for. I loved hearing someone sing my lyrics and like them. It was all I wantted. It made me feel like I accomplished something. Maybe something not so big, but something none the less. I wasn't good at anything else then writing and playing music. That was it. That was all that mattered.
"They remind me of bleeding roses,
glowing brightly.
It makes my hands quiver and my legs shake creating chemistry between you and me.

Your golden eyes hold me,
Your silver hands love me,
making my heart go wild.
Somewhere for us where werewolves howl,
witches cackle,
and vampire kisses prowl.
These are the keys of my world."
The voices started to harmnize with Aio and me. They tried to make it sound like our voices. They wantted to be on stage like us. To be us.
"They are my life,
making everything worth while.
All I see is red and soft,
I wish it were forever."
Jill started bobbing her head to the beat as Kair started slowing the beat down.
"Werewolves howl,
witches cackle,
and vampire kisses prowl.
These are the keys of my world. "
Aio's last note lingered in the place as I ended the last note on my guitar abruptly.
A grand applause broke out and we all bowed, happy that they were happy. The curtian closed and we put our stuff down.
"Woah...that's the best crowd we've had in a while.",Aio took out the fangs, us all knowing she would be wearing them none stop for fun if she could.
Kair nodded,"I loved the energy. Like striking a match! It fired me up!!",she threw the drum sticks in the air and catching them. Jill nodded,"That song is going to be a great hit soon!",she nudged me while I smiled.
"Maybe...but I want to make it longer and better...",I crossed my arms.
"Girls!!'
We turned to see our manager, Max, my older cousin. He was part of a small label corporation and was trying to get us to a bigger one, so we would be world wide and we'd have a better job and more chances to meet his favorite bands. Music was something that ran in the family. My mom used to be a singer on Broadway and my dad had a small band before I was born. They were great. I had their songs on my ipod along with the songs my mom sang on Broadway.
"Max!!! You got us a great place man!!",I gave him a high five with a smile. He grinned, he looked alot like my Uncle John, an old rocker from the 80's.
"I do the best for my little cousin and her fantastic friends. Oh! I got good news!! Guess who wants you to perform with them here tomorrow night?"
We all looked at each other.
Aio spoke first,"Fallout Boy?"
"Paramore?",Kair cocked her head to the side.
"Phantom Planet?",Jill leaned closer, curious.
"Ozzy Osbourne?",I guessed from the top of my head.
I got crazy looks.
"What? I just said the first thing on my mind.",I crossed my arms and looked away from them. Can't something think aloud in piece?
"Well...you three are close.",Max pointed to the others,"They are on Fueled by Ramen and Decaydance..."
We so wantted to be labeled under one or the other. It was our dream.
"Panic at the Disco."
"Panic at the who what?"we all cocked our heads to the side.
"Panic at the Disco. They're a new rising band. They're style is close to yours and they were here tonight listening. They like you guys. They might even put a good word in for you."
This got our attention. It was typical fanism to be band. Meet a popular band, befriend them, they put a word in, you get under a fucking awesome label.
"Awww...then they won't really like us. They're use us."
We all turned to the voice to see four guys about our age standing not far off on the stage.
"Girls, meet Panic. Panic, Blood Is My Alibi."
They walked over and we all shook hands.
"Brendon Urie.", this guy had Aio's eye immediately.
"Spencer Smith.", he was the drummer, and caught Kair's attention, wantting to learn more from someone proclaimed as important as he was.
"Jon Walker.", bassist, that simple and he looked like the interetsting type. Jill smiled at him.
"Ryan Ross.", eyeliner and wierd designs on his face. He was the hottest guitarist I had ever met.
"Aio Ariko.",Aio smiled, fangs back in her mouth.
"Kair Price.",Kair gave a peace sign, she had been around me to long.
"Jill Pitt.", she gave a curtsy, the proper girl in the group.
"Alice Espanosa.",I smiled, giving my ultimate famous lazy hand wave.
Max smiled,"So...tomorrow night it is."
"I guess then we'll be see you tomorrow night.",Ryan have a soft smile and I felt my face turn read as Panic turned and walked off, talking amongst themselves.
Max started getting our stuff togathe with some other people that worked with us.
"Oh..."
"My...."
"God..."
I hung my head as my three friends giggled. I hated it when they did this.
Aio had hearts in her eyes,"Brendon is such a hottie."
"Spencer is so handsome!!! He can be my drummer anyday!",Kair had a far off look.
"And Jon is just...",Jill sighed, doing a small dance.
My eye twitched at them, they were so....typical girls with love at first sight. Just a small crush. Nothing was going to happen. They should know that, they had been with some many jerks I lost count. They weren't whores or anything, they just jumpped ahead of themselves. It was when the guy only wantted sex they noticed they misjudged them and ran off. I didn't date. I never did. Wait for my knight in shining armor come save me when I need him. Yeah, there were guys I liked and had crushes, but I never went head over heels for someone. It was just childish.
I sighed and started messing with getting my guitart ready to put away,"You guys are so...easy...man lord."
They snapped to reality.
"C'mon Ali. Let us have our fun.",Aio whined. She whined to get me to be on her side. I only got on her side to make her shut up.
Kair hung her head,"We can't help it. You of all people know that!"
"Right!!",Jill nodded. She always agreeded with Kair.
I continued what I was doing,"I know. Okay? I do. More then anyone else, I just want you guys to be careful for once atleast.",I got my guitar and whires and everything and headed out back to Aio's car and put it in the back seat.
I closed the door and strechted, the night air felt nice after a stuffy stage performance.
"Alice...am I right?"
I turned to see Brendon and Ryan.
I nodded,"And Brendon and Ryan.",I pointed to each in turn. They nodded with smiles.
"So, Max said you write the songs. Am I right?",Brendon asked. I nodded,"Yeah. All of them. I know they're no good and all-"
"No! They're great!",Ryan interrupted. I looked at him with surprise,"Come again?"
"They're good. I meant to tell you earlier, but I forgot about it. The other's were kind of...drooling alot.",he laughed, elbowing Brendon who had a grin on his blushing face. I laughed,"I noticed. The girls do that alot. Don't worry about them. And thanks."
"No prob. See you tomorrow.",they walked off with a wave. I waved after them. They were pretty cool.
After a few moments the others came out and Aio and I got in her car and we headed to our apartment.
"Maybe things will look up."
I nodded,"Perhaps."
