Hey you guys I am sorry that it so late of an update and sorry that it's really short but I have been really busy with school. My mid-term just past and well it's been crazy ever since.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I needed air!
"So what you think so far?"
"They are great!" I stuttered out.
"I have been following these guys for a while. I know them personally, you see the lead guitarist..." she pointed Aaden, "I know his twin brother Rem way before he started this band. We had lost connection since high school but he just showed up one day and told me he was in a band and wanted to know if I would join....I told him no....I have my reason but away it was latter that I found out he had a twin. Rem and I reconnected our friendship again. I heard them play and I was really impressed. "
I stood there in shock. I took him as being a snob. How stupid of me? What must he think of me!
Victoria gave me a quizzical look. "Is everything all right? You look really pail." She was practically screaming these words out. The band was playing so load it was hard to hear what she was saying, I had to lean in just hear her.
"yeah I'm fine...' so I lied, I looked around me once more, the stage was angled that no matter where you stood you could see the band playing. I turned to look behind me there were tables and chairs, kind of like a café setting but more of bar look. There was a bar right behind me with a few bar stools that look like they were in need of repair. The cushion to one had a tear and the others just looked bent and out of shape.
"How... how did you not see or meet his twin brother?"
"Well it's a bit of a back story; you see Rem and Aaden could be well so different even though they look alike. Rem was the cocky sports type of guy while Aaden was more of let me hang around the library and or ride my motorcycle. I was part of Rem crew. You know how high school is...or have seen how it is on TV. The cheerleaders and the jocks hang together. It's always been that way but just because I was like that does not mean that I would treat others bad no I was the opposite everyone got a chance and sometimes a second chance no matter what they are. Rem was a good guy and sometimes we would have a Goth or some Nerd sitting by our table. It was kind and gentle and was accepting of others just like me. He would shut anybody up who would say a bad thing about another person. It was Aaden who fist pitched the idea of starting a band back in high school. It did not soar until after they graduate that Rem finally agreed only because he did not want be living off a sports scholarship. Well to be honest just like me he saw the potential of Aaden's band. Not only that but I think he did it because he wanted to feel a connection with Aaden... I think it's partly why....oh never mind, Just watch and you will know."
I was perplexed by the last part Victoria mentioned. The way that Victoria spoke of Rem, it almost sounded like she liked him. I wanted to know the rest. What was she not saying? Maybe I am reading too much into this. At the same time I wanted to run out but my feet stayed rooted to the ground, I could not escape. I closed my eyes wishing to be anywhere else but here.
"Hey try this, it's really good!" Victoria handed me a drink that looked blue, the blue you saw from cool aid jammers.
I took the glass from Victoria's hand. I sniff it before taking a huge gulp. I did not ask what it was I already knew it was alcohol. I don't know much and sad to say this was my first tastes of alcohol. I stood there drinking the whole glass without taking a breath. What a wrong thing to do, that was the worst and strongest drink to have for the first time.
Victoria looked at me. Shock all over her face, "for someone who does not know much...you drank that pretty face." Everything was going blurry, and the building was starting to spin on me. "You should have taken it easy. Was that your first time drinking?" I looked at her and gave her a blank expression and nodded. "Well this will be fun. Getting smashed at a concert is the best thing in life! But like I said you need to take it easy, you need to get smashed slowly." The waiter walked and she waved him over and asked for a few more drinks. "Okay with this next drink take your time drinking your drink and saviour it." I looked at her and nodded.
Five minutes later the waiter came back with our drinks. I took my drink from his tray and savoured the taste. I started the dizzy come back. The music was blaring and the worries I had a moment ago were starting to fade. I looked at the bottle I had to squint it was so dark in the bar or whatever the place I was. I was holding a beer bottle. It felt good, I felt so adultish.
I smiled at Victoria "I liked the last drink, it tasted like Koolade!"
"That is the best drink in life." Victoria was on her third drink. "ooh I should not have sstarted you on that one, it knocks you almost right out. It just that strong, but mmm is it every delouse. I got an idea let's move closer to them. This is sssomething you cannot miss."
Victoria took hold of my hand; my drink was sloshing all over the place. We were standing in the middle of a smosh pit or something like that. Everything about that day was a blur. I was getting quit dizzy and the music was blaring and all I remember is looking at Aaden playing and staring at his features as my head got heavy and dizzy with alcohol. I lost count of how many drinks I had.
I remember pulling away from the crowd looking for the washroom but not finding anything. Everything in the room was going around and around. I saw some men in the corner smile but I just swayed and almost fell on my face. I saw a flashing red sign and found myself standing in the cold. I turned myself around realizing that door was going to shut I tried to take a leap but my reaction was to slow the door closed leaving standing in a low lit alleyway.
I felt nauseated and sick and most of all I was freezing. I should not have listen to Victoria and worn this stupid skirt. I felt about now ridiculous and most of all upset that I was freezing my but off... I remembered about my ticket but I quickly realized that I had left it with Victoria.
I felt a wave of queasiness coming through. I quickly ran toward a box that was next to a big dumpster. I thought I had heard distant walking maybe walking into the alleyway but I would not know because the next thing I knew everything went pitch black....the dizziness went away.
