Ariel's P.O.V.

We all ran down the road at around four PM we all raced into a small music venue. We where playing at 5 Emma was gonna play then Me and lastly Patty was going to play.

I was in denim shorts, a punk ain't dead it just went pop tank top and knee high converse shoes. My hair was big and poofy and my makeup smokey.

I walked up to the bar and sat on a stool.
"What can I do for you?" A bar tender asked me
"Actually me and two of my friends are gigging here tonight and where wondering who to inform about our arrival."
"Well I guess I could just sign you guys in and then you can go set up. Can I ask you and your friends names."
"Well I'm Ariel Howell-Lester and my friends are Emma Blackery and Patty Walters. Emma plays at 5 I'm on at 6 and Patty at 7."
"Thanks love. Your stage is next door just go in."

We walked into the room with around 45 minuets to set up. I sat my guitar down on the floor took it out the case and put it on the rack they had provided us. Patty and Luke pulled two amps up and onto the stage for Patty's set. We got all our stuff on stage and got time for a quick pep talk and a hug.

Karim, Jason, Patty, Luke and I sat down at a table whilst Emma took to the stage. Emma walked on in an everybody hates me t-shirt and black skirt with her black converse making it feel more like Emma. She sung the promise, perfect, fuck you Google plus, go the distance, I've been worse, misery business, the only exception and undercover lover. 

Emma came off stage and pulled me up their with her.
"For my last song I wanted to play a song with the next artist that's on tonight. My amazing friends and wonderful workmate Ariel. This is a cover of the song really don't care."

You wanna play, you wanna stay, you wanna have it all
You started messing with my head until I hit a wall
Maybe I should've known, maybe I should've known
That you would walk, you would walk out the door, hey!

Said we were done, then met someone and rubbed it in my face
Cut to the part, she broke your heart, and then she ran away
I guess you should've known, I guess you should've known
That I would talk, I would talk

But even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh oh oh I really don't care
Even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh oh oh I really don't care
Oh oh oh I really don't care

I can't believe I ever stayed up writing songs about you
You don't deserve to know the way I used to think about you
Oh no not anymore, oh no not anymore
You had your shot, had your shot, but you let go

Now if we meet out on the street I won't be running scared
I'll walk right up to you and put one finger in the air
And make you understand, and make you understand
You had your chance, had your chance

But even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh oh oh I really don't care
Even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh oh oh I really don't care
Oh oh oh I really don't care

Yeah, listen up
Hey, hey, never look back,
Dumb struck boy, ego intact
Look boy, why you so mad
Second guessin', but should've hit that
Hey Emma, you picked the wrong lover
Should've picked that one, he's cuter than the other
I just wanna laugh, cause you're tryna be a hipster
Kick him to the curb, take a Polaroid picture

But even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh oh oh I really don't care
Even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh oh oh I really don't care
Oh oh oh I really don't care

We finished the song and she walked off stage I played song without a name, rebel love song, balled of the Mona Lisa, young volcanoes, bad girls club, and had Patty come sing The only exception with me.

Patty played his set and we left the bar.
We all danced and skipped our way home laughing at each other and how stupid we all are.

Patty and I had fallen on to the sofa with each other and patty pulled me into a giant hug and kissed my forehead.
"Heres to Air's first gig, may it be the first of many amazing performances by a fucking amazing girl!" Patty shouted
"To Ariel!!!" Luke screamed so loud I think I am deafened after it. We all laughed and hugged each other.
"I can't believe that in three days we are all not gonna be together. Until summer. I can't believe we are almost done school. I can't wait to just fuck everything." I said sounded far to happy for 9pm.
"Well what are our plans for our next two full days?" Emma asked
" I think we should try to take over the world." Jason smirked.
"Not gonna happen Jason. Now if you don't mind I'm gonna call it a night I could sleep for years" Emma smirked.

We all took off upstairs and went to bed. I lay on the bed letting the cold air hit me. Boy am I lucky to have such a great life.
