Rockstars

Chapter 3

Brandi's POV

"I still can't believe we did it guys! Holy shit, we got the deal! This is unreal, actually......" I tuned out of Melanie's babbling. It was the morning after the big record label meeting, and we had gotten the deal. We were still shocked and so excited. We had a concert tonight too.

We had the whole day to waste away, until we had to be at the Grand Stadium at 7pm. We had another concert. It was a little smaller then the previous. It started at 9 pm, so it would end very late.

"Walking down the streets in my new dark jeans," Melanie started singing suddenly, practising one of our newest top hits.

"Saying woah! You wouldn't know!" I sang my part.

"That I was from the country, and not the city, baaaaabbbbby," Melanie chanted on.

"I was walking down Rodeo Drive, watching the scenes flash by!" I belted.

"Celebrities were passing by, and none of them seemed to mind, me being there!"

"Oh, Baby!"

We finished the song fairly quickly, and for the rest of the day we just sat inside, and relaxed.

"Get in the dressing room!" A lady named Melissa shouted at me. Calm the fuck down, chikita. It wasn't even 7pm yet. We shouldn't have even been at the stadium yet.

"Okay..." I said slowly, sidestepping the stressed out person. Maybe I should have brought her an energy drink! I headed over to 'the closet'. My personal stylist, Jade was one of my favourite people on the planet. She knew exactly what I wanted to look like, and she knew my style better than I knew it, you could say.

"Hey!" I waved to her. I was in closet, which was a large room with all the clothes you could imagine.

Jade was a short woman with straight, jet-black hair and almond-shaped, green eyes.

"What's up, Brandi?" She called, giving me a one-armed hug. She never hugged with two arms, and now, thinking back, I realized I never did either.

"We got signed with Hallem Records!" I burst, my eyes lighting up. Her jaw dropped open.

"Oh my God! That's amazing! Congrats, girl!" She squealed. I thanked her and then we finally headed to a dressing room. I left my jacket and my other belongings in the dressing room and went out to search for some articles of clothing. We found some ripped boyfriend jeans, that hung low on my waist. Then, we grabbed a red and black plaid shirt, tying it around my waist. then grabbed a black crop top that fell just above my belly button. Once I was dressed, I had to head to hair and makeup, which actually took a long time.

After an hour, my hair was pulled up high into some kind of braided bun thing; I didn't know what they did. My makeup was natural. My skin was glowing, my cheekbones were highlighted, my eyelashes were dark and long, and my lips were smeared with beige lipgloss, which I despised. After all that, we went into rehearsal for about forty-five minutes. We got through each song once before the fans started flowing in and we had to enter the stage......

~~~~~

After the concert, we fled off the stage and went out the back door. Well, only Sarah and I. Melanie and Olivia stayed and chatted with Sean. We walked down the alley to the front of the stadium. No one was outside, since the fans were still inside. Technically the doors didn't open to let them out until 11pm, and it was quarter too. It was sort of caging them in, I'll admit, but the doors had to be locked to people couldn't get in.

Suddenly someone yelled, "Look who it is!"

Shit, Shit, shit, shit. Oh fuck. I glanced at Sarah in worry, and I could see the concern in her gaze as well.
