pov: Julia
The lights came on the the singer started singing the opening song but it sounded distant to me. my band was up next and i had to prepare myself I was the shy guitar player in the back it took them a lot to get me to join the band. My best friend is the lead singer and she was the one that finally convinced me to join the band. After I finished mumbling to myself the normal "you can do it" and "pretend you're in the basement performing for your friends and family" I was ready. I opened my eyes just as they called out "next after the break waters falling" after he said the name the whole crowd screamed. Oh I forgot to mention this was not just a sign up and do your best type of concert it was the "the waters falling world tour" we had just finished the intro singers. we walked on after the break and there was a huge screaming the almost broke my eardrums but I was used to it and I also had earplugs in like normal. After a couple of songs we walked backstage again and were told that there were seven people with backstage passes. Everyone but me started shuffling into the meet and greet room exempt me because I don't do well with that kind of thing just then the person doing the list today stopped me
"you too" she said stopping me. I normally didn't have people write me down for who they wanted to meet the most what that had never happened before but it was part of the arrangement that I didn't have to meet and greet if none of the VIPs wrote my name down if they did then I would have to go to the meat and greet it was as simple as that
"what!!" I responded after a few second of silence.
"3 people wrote your name down" the list lady said opening the door to the m&g room (that is what we call it) I shuffled in the door closing behind me.
"Why you here" my best friend Alyssa said.
"Some people write my name down specifically 3 of the seven."i responded.
"Weird, want chips Julia" said Eric the only guy in the band he was the drummer.
"Ya, toss them here" i responded. Eric tossed me the chips I opened the bag and started eating them. Just then the VIPs came in and walked excitedly up to the person they wanted to meet the most. Just as said three of them waked up to me and started asking questions pretending I had lost my voice I wrote them down in my notebook. Everyone else in the group slowly left when they were done being questioned until I was the only one left. Then the three people there for me asked the weirdest question ever
"who do you work for" their voice strict and intense all of a sudden.
"W-what um magic music industry" I said hastily
"wrong" one of the others snapped back
"I-I don't know what your talking about" I said back
"tell us who you really work for" the one that looked like the leader of the group said through gritted teeth.
"Um-a" I pressed the inter com button
"security" I shrouded into the intercom a hint of panic in my voice just then all three of them looked around the leader punched me in the gut and the world fell black as I was being put over one of their shoulders and rushed out the door.
