I woke up after Mike's grip around my waist became tighter, I smiled. I missed Mike, I missed everyone and when people I knew saw me they didn't know it was me. His eyes fluttered open and he looked down at me smiling. "I am happy you're back Shy." He said kissing my forehead. "Mike, is it okay if I get on the next flight to Seattle, I miss grieves." I said giving him puppy dog eyes and pouting my lip. He had a look of disagreement "I will dye my hair black again." I said hoping he you say yes. "Fine, but be back by next week for warped." He said kissing my nose leaving spit on it on purpose. I frowned and wiped my nose off, I will get him back. We got up and walked downstairs where Vic was making French toast with whipped cream. "MY FAVORITE!" I yelled making him laugh. I sat down at the island and waited for Vic to finish. Mike sat on my right and Tony to my left. Jaime was across from me with Vic next to him. We were all eating and talking while I thought of my revenge. "Hey Mike, you got a little something right here." I said pointing to a spot on my face, I wiped it. "No there's not." He said as I took a big spoonful of whip cream and put it there, "Now there is." "SHYANA ALEXANDRIA JOHNSON!" Mike said as I ran upstairs. I went into Vic's room and locked the door. I fell on the floor laughing when the door burst down, I got scared and hid in the closet. "Shy, I won't hurt you. I am sorry for breaking down the door, I forgive you so you can come out." Mike said opening the closet. I stood up slowly, I walked downstairs and the guys had a suitcase of my clothes packed for me. "Have fun in Seattle." Vic said handing me the plane ticket.

~A few hours later~

I walked to the familiar house and knocked on the door, grieves opened it and hugged me instantly. "I missed you Shy. Where did you go?" He asked pulling me inside. "I was harassed and threatened by Kelly and her friends." I said as he hugged me again.

---

It was 5 and the bus will be here at 6, I needed to wake up the boys for warped now. The first to wake up, Vic. I went into his room quietly and starting shaking him, "Vic you have to get up." "No, cuddle." He said pouting like a little kid. I gave in a we cuddled for 5 minutes, then we went into the kitchen. Vic woke up Jaime and Tony, while I filled a bucket with ice and water to wake up Mike. They all stood outside his door while I got closer and closer with the ice water. I made a count down with my fingers, "3.2.1" and I dumped the water onto Mike. "WAKEY WAKEY!" I yelled running out of the room. I could here everyone laughing. Soon I heard somebody chasing me, I had nowhere else to run and ended up in a corner. "Come give me a hug Shy." "No." I said as Mike got closer. He hugged me and I squealed because he was cold and wet. He released me and I changed my clothes, after I finished the bus was here so we all got on and started our journey to Texas for the beginning of Warped Tour. The whole way I slept, technically I wasn't honestly the tour manager. I was just the one to make the sets and get them stuff if they needed anything.

When we got to Texas we were greater by two bands, All Time Fucking Low and SWS. Kellin hugged me and lifted me off the ground. Jesse squeezed me so tight and I ended up biting him again, "Jesus, why do you always bite people?" Jesse asked. "You got in my personal space, you were in my bubble, also I couldn't breathe." I said making everyone laugh. "Hi I am Alex, This idiot that thinks he is a woman is Jack, and those two are Rian and Zach. We are All Time Low and throw quite awesome parties." He said as him and Jack hugged me and Zach and Rian waved. Next came a guy with long black hair with blondish streaks in it. "Hi, my name is David." He said shaking my hand. "SHY! WE NEED WHISKEY FOR TONIGHTS PARTY!" Mike yelled at me, I groaned and got back on the bus grabbing my keys for the rental car. I said my goodbyes and David decided to go with, "I take it you don't drink." "Well I have had some bad past experiences but I still drink." I said while we walked up the aisles. I got Jack Daniel's, Fireball, Jameson, Vodka, and many more. David was super excited and I just wanted to drink away the thought of Casey.

We got back to the venue and I saw Austin standing talking to Mitch Lucker, I haven't met him yet but I love his music. Him and Austin are friends, I brought all the stuff onto the bus and ran up to Austin. He wasn't paying attention but Mitch was, I put my finger up to my lips and he smiled. Austin was talking to Mitch about something when I poked my fingers into his sides making him scream like a girl. Me and Mitch started laughing and Austin was pouting, "The wasn't nice Shy. You a meany." He said like a three year old. "Hmmm. According to me that is what I was taught was nice. My mommy told me to scare you." "Who the hell is your mommy?" "Alan." I said as he marched off towards Alan. "Seriously, Alan is your mom?" "No, but I couldn't think of anyone else at the time." I said smirking, Mitch hugged me, "I like you already and I have only know you for five fucking minutes." He said smiling, "also Austin talks about you a lot, I heard about the faking your death thing too." "Well in all honesty I did want to die, but I just couldn't bring myself to it. I have tried 5 times before but I just couldn't fucking kill myself." I said as Austin started stomping toward me, I hid behind Mitch. "Shy, Alan did not tell you to do that. Who did?" "I did. I saw her behind you so I smiled letting her know to go ahead." Mitch said smirking, Austin got a look on his face and I jumped on Mitch's back. He started running and set me down, he told me to go to the ATL bus. So I ran to there bus and started pounding on the door, Jack pulled me in. "Since you have come on our bus you must sing us a song." Jack said smirking. "Get me a guitar." He gave me a guitar and I started playing my favorite ATL song. Remembering Sunday.

He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Started making his way past 2 in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days

Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees
They had breakfast together
But two eggs don't last
Like the feeling of what he needs

Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs, she led him upstairs
Left him dying to get in

Forgive me, I'm trying to find
My calling, I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm going to ask her to marry me

Even though she doesn't believe in love,
He's determined to call her bluff
Who could deny these butterflies?
They're filling his gut

Waking the neighbors, unfamiliar faces
He pleads though he tries
But he's only denied
Now he's dying to get inside

Forgive me, I'm trying to find
My calling, I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm going to ask her to marry me

The neighbors said she moved away
Funny how it rained all day
I didn't think much of it then
But it's starting to all make sense
Oh, I can see now that all of these clouds
Are following me in my desperate endeavor
To find my whoever, wherever she may be

I'm not coming back (forgive me)
I've done something so terrible
I'm terrified to speak (I'm not calling, I'm not calling)
But you'd expect that from me
I'm mixed up, I'll be blunt, now the rain is just (You're driving me crazy, I'm)
Washing you out of my hair and out of my mind
Keeping an eye on the world,
From so many thousands of feet off the ground, I'm over you now
I'm at home in the clouds, and towering over your head

Well I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home

They all clapped and I handed Jack the guitar, "You. Sing. With. Me. Now. 5 minutes. Get ready." Alex said shoving me off the bus. I ran back to our bus and changed into an awesome outfit. I was hopping trying to put on my shoes when I fell down. "What's the rush Shy?" "Alex wants me to sing Remembering Sunday with him." I said putting my shoes on a getting up. I ran back to the ATL bus where they were waiting. We walked to the stage and I stood side stage waiting for Alex to call me on stage. He called me and we started singing on stage.

~Later at the party~
None of the guys were near to stop me so I decided to entertain our guests. I grabbed Fireball, Jack Daniel's, and Jameson and chugged all three at once burning my throat. Everyone cheered and clapped, then David took me to dance. We went outside and starting dancing, soon we got bored so we went to his bus and started watching movies. He made me take some medicine before I fell asleep laying on his chest. I woke up surprised I didn't have a hangover, David was snoring a little and I giggled lightly. He woke up and smirked, "What's so funny missy?" "You were snoring." I said and he groaned. I got up and walked to our bus where a ton of people were passed out on the floor, including Mitch. I walked to my bunk to see a naked Mike and some naked slut making out. I slammed the curtain shut and ran back to David's bus. He hugged me when I burst out crying, nobody was on the bus so it didn't matter. "What's wrong Shy?" "I have had feelings for Mike for a while and I was planning on telling him this tour, but instead I found him and some naked girl making out in my bunk." I said sobbing into his chest. He rubbed soothing circles in my back when Mitch walked onto the bus. "What's wrong honey?" He asked as David moved seeing if Mitch could calm me down. "I have had feelings for Mike for a while and I was going to tell him this tour. But instead I find him and some naked slut in my bunk." I said crying into his chest. He started rubbing circles into my back, "well then he doesn't deserve a sweet beautiful girl like you." He cooed into my ear. I finally started to calm down when Austin, Alan, Tony, Vic, Jaime, and Kellin walked onto the bus. They asked what's wrong, "why don't you go ask Mike and his slut." I said as Austin balled his hands into fists but relaxed the. As Tony, Jaime, Vic, and Kellin stormed off the bus. Me, Mitch, and Austin started writing a song that we would sing/scream later on. After we finished Mitch and Austin had to leave, the had interviews and signings to do so it left me and David.

We watched TV until I had to get ready, I fixed my makeup, changed my outfit, and fixed my hair. I jumped onto Mitch's back and he ran to the stage. We stood side stage watching, "OKAY GUYS, ME AND MY FRIENDS Shy AND MITCH HAVE A NEW SOMG WE JUST WROTE TODAY! IT'S ABOUT ALL OF THE SHIT WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH, COME ON OUT HERE GUYS!" Austin yelled into the mic as me and Mitch were both handed microphones. "THIS SONG IS ABOUT THE PEOPLE WE HAVE DEALT WITH IN OUR LIVES! SLUTS, BULLIES, HATERS, AND EXES!" I yelled into the mic "THIS SONG IS CALLED WE WILL STAND UP!" Austin yelled into the mic as the music started.

I have dealt with this shit for to long
I have been cheated, broken, hurt, and torn apart
But now I will end it all, I can fend for myself
Every time I fall I will get back up on my feet.

You have pushed me around and told me all this shit
I was gone for so long because I couldn't take it
I faked my own fucking death because of you
But now I will fight back, if you get to close you will be the one hurt
I am done with this shit, I swear to god if you fuck with me I will break you fucking nose and knock out your teeth

You thought you could talk us down but we will stand back up
I have hurt so many now but you're the only one That is hurt now
You thought you could take us down but we will stand back up
I have you in the ring but I am the one the wining

I have rose above you now and you still try to bring me down
I am up here making my way to fucking fame
While you are stuck working at a shitty ass job.
I am making this music and rocking out
While you dance around a fucking pole with barely any clothing

You may have been my bully once before
I had to look up at you and you beat me around
Now you look up at me and your the one being beat around

You thought you could hurt us again but we will stand back up
I have had enough pain that I can't even be hurt anymore
You thought calling us names will hurt us but we will stand back up
I have been called it all so you could never say a fucking word to hurt me

We will stand back up!
We will stand back up!
We will stand back up!

We will stand back up even if you push us down
You can't hurt us anymore, we are unbroken
We have all these people by our side
You have nobody so I would run

Fucking Run!

Fucking run as fast as you fucking can, because we will chase you and hurt you just like you hurt us

We will stand back up!
We will stand back up!
We will stand back up!

We will stand back up even if we fall down
You can run but you can't fucking hide
We will not back down
You will not be able to have anyone hold us back
We won't back down, we won't go down without a fucking fight
We don't go down without a fight, or until someone bleeds
You may try to be our friend
But we can never forgive you

We will stand back up!
We will stand back up!
We will stand back up!

We may be the outcasts but we will stand back up!
We may be broken but we will stand back up!
We may be hurt but we will stand back up!
We may have scars on our arms but we will stand back up!
We may have fallen down but we will stand back up!

We!
We!
We!
We will stand back up!

The crowd went wild and we all smiled, me and Mitch walked off the stage and he hugged me. "Ewwwwwwww, your covered in sweat." I complained while he laughed. I walked to our bus and took a shower, ignoring Mike. I was fixing my hair when there was a knock at the door. "Who is it?" "Alan." I never realized how long I had been in here. I opened the door only wearing a bra and thong, Alan has seen me in this before so I didn't have to worry about putting on more clothes. He walked in, "I am glad you stayed clean of cutting. I was worried and when the guys said you have been in here for a long time I thought I should check on you." He said looking down trying not to look at my chest. I told him to keep looking down and I changed my bra to a strapless one and then put on a tank top with the sides cut and a pair of short shorts. I said he could look now but he had to leave so I hugged him goodbye.

I stayed in the bathroom just chilling on the floor when Mitch walked in. "What are doing?" "Chilling." "On the bathroom floor?" "Yup." I said looking up at him. He picked me up and brought me out to the front. "Well if I can't stay in the bathroom I will go find David" I said about to walk off the bus. "Shy, do you like David?" I was about to say no when Jaime yelled "SHY LIKES DAVID!" "JAIME LIKES ALEX!" I couldn't resist, his face turned red and I ran off the bus to the BC bus. I started pounding on the door "DAVID ANTHONY SCHMITT OPEN THE DOOR!" I yelled. He didn't answer and I I didn't know what to do so I climbed onto the tool of the bus too the back where I knew a window was open. I jumped through the window and David shut it behind me. He shut all the windows and locked the door, Jaime was pounding on the door. "SHY LIKES DAVID!" He yelled running off. "You like me?" "No." "Oh really, so what would you do if I did this?" He asked before crashing his lips onto mine, he could read me like a fucking book. I started kissing back and soon his arms were wrapped around my waist and mine around his neck. Soon he unwrapped his arms and soon were placed on my hips, my hands wandered and need up playing with his hair. Soon he had me pressed up against a wall, he glided his tongue across my bottom lip begging for entrance. I opened my mouth and we fought for dominance, of course he won. After he finished exploring my mouth, we pulled apart gasping for air. "So do you like me?" "No, I love you." I said kissing his nose. He smiled and we walked to the lounge cuddling up and watching a movie. "Do you want to go on a date tonight?" "I would love to David." he smiled and kissed me.

I had to leave and go to the guys set. I watched for five minutes then I started daydreaming about me and David, I was snapped out of my thoughts to somebody snapping their fingers I front of my face. "Earth to Shy, where are you in that little world of yours?" It was Juliet Simms. "Sorry, I was just day dreaming." I said while she pulled me to a rental car, "where are we going?" "The mall to get you an outfit for your with David." She said starting the car, BVB came on and we started singing along. I knew she was Andy's girlfriend and in all honesty I was fucking happy for them. She took me to Forever 21, "Do they call this place Forever 21 because it takes forever to find a freaking outfit." I complained. Juliet laughed and we continued shopping.

~50 hours later (according to Shy)~

I changed into my Outfit and put on my makeup. When I walked out I got stares from everyone then Mike got a look in his eyes. I could tell he was beating him self up because he looked down when I looked over at him. I walked off the bus to see David, "thank god you wore that, I thought we would have to go somewhere fancy. But I don't know what fancy place will except a couple with tattoos, snap backs, and piercings." He said smiling. I smiled back and we ended up going to a board walk place. We got strange looks from people but we ignored them, until one girl had to say something. "David, why are you hanging out with her? You could find someone way more pretty than her? I mean look she is fat,ugly and -" I cut her off with a punch to do the jaw, the next thing you know I am beating the shit out of her. Then I was put in a cop car, I fucked up big time. Luckily I wasn't intoxicated, I was just arrested for assault.

When I got to the police station I was allowed one call. I called Austin, "Hello?" "Hey Austin it's Shy. I kind of am at a police station." "What?! Why?!" "Ask David and he will explain. Tell Pierce I won't be out until tomorrow." "Okay......" And with that I hung up. The officer put hand cuffs on me and took me to a little place where other people were. I was told to sit until they came and got me, David had me stuff including my hat so nothing bothered me. I was sat next to a familiar green head, "Jackson?" "Shy? Oh sorry I forgot Sh-" "Jackson I faked my death because of Kelly. Now why are you in here?" "Defacing Property, I was spray painting and got caught." He said with a chuckle. "Why the hell are you here?" "Well I am the person that gets the PTV guys stuff when they need it and I write set lists. I was on a date with David from BC when a girl told him he could do better and said I was fat ugly and before she could finish I collided my fist with her jaw. Then I beat the shit out of her, so I am in here for assault." I said looking down. "You know, you would think I would be used to it but honestly, I'm not." I said laughing a little. The officer approached me, "You are free to go due to the fact that she wasn't seriously injured and you didn't fight us, you actually are the only person we didn't have to use force to stop fighting. Since all I had to do was pull you off of that one girl you honestly don't have need to be here Mrs. Johnson. And remember if you have any trouble with anyone with harassment then talk to me." The officer said with a smile as he took off the handcuffs. "Jeff?" "Yup, I moved out here after my wife got assigned a new job out here." He said as I hugged him. I walked out to see David. "How the hell did you get out?!?" He asked hugging me. "Well 1. She wasn't hurt badly 2. I didn't resist arrest or try to fight the cop 3. The cop happens to be an old friend." I said smiling and he smiled back. "Well, do you want to get back to our lovely board walk date." "SHY, REMEMBER USE YOUR WORDS NOT YOUR BODY!" Jeff yelled as we walked away. "I WON'T!" I yelled back. "It was a thing in my middle school, I used to kick this on kid and the Vice principal always told me that." I said as David intertwined our fingers. We walked to the board walk and started playing games, David won me a stuffed Rottweiler and turtle. We got ice cream and he ended up with some on his nose.

We walked back with our fingers intertwined, everybody was partying so we had the bus to ourselves. We watched A Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline, and any other Tim Burton movie we had. We had shut the lounge door and locked it knowing the guys would be back drunk. After we finished the last movie, I pecked David on the lips and went out he window to my bus. I opened my curtain a little making sure no naked people were in it. And fucking great there was. So I shut it, luckily none of my important stuff was in there. My blankets and pillow were in the lounge, all my other stuff was in my suitcase, backpack, or purse. I grabbed a pair of pajamas, my backpack, my purse, and my Star Wars blanket and pillow. I walked back to the BC bus and crawled through the window to the lounge. David was still there and when he saw me he smiled. "Wanted to stay with me?" "Actually Mike and the slut were in my bunk again. I am kicking his ass tomorrow, I can't go into my bunk anymore thanks to him. Luckily none of my stuff was in it except for 1 shirt, a bra, and a I mean panties." I said while David smirked. I told him to close his eyes, "Please don't make me, I want to see all your tattoos." He pleaded. "Fiiiiinnnnnne." I said pulling of my shirt and shorts. He was amazed by the tattoos on my arms and shoulders. I turned around and let him see the others, "Why can't those be your Pajamas." He groaned, I giggled and just put on an oversized shirt I owned. I wiped off my make up and put my hair up in a messy bun. I sat on David's lap and rested my head on his chest, he rested his chin on my head. We watched Family Guy, at about 3 in the morning we fell asleep wrapped in the Star Wars blanket.

We we woke up the next morning to Austin and Mitch knocking on the lounge door. I sprang up and put on my pajama shorts before opening the door. "Shy, you have to head back to your bus." "But it's so far away" I complained waving my arm out in front of me. Instead of telling me to suck it up, Austin grabbed my stuff and Mitch picked me up bridal style. They brought me to my bus, I realized I forgot my blanket and pillow on David's bus but I didn't care. "So how did you get out jail last night?" "Apparently I got off the hook since I didn't hurt her badly, I didn't resist arrest lot fight the cop, and the cop was an old friend." I said while Austin and Mitch were surprised. "Also I believe I found an old friend their." "Who?" "Your cousin Jackson, he was in there for defacing property. He was caught by the cops when he was putting Graffiti on a wall." He got a shocked look on his face while Mitch looked confused. Austin pulled Mitch off the bus and I went to the lounge, I wrapped myself up in my other blanket and laid down on one of the fancy pillows we keep on the couch. I fell asleep almost instantly.

I slept for what seemed like forever, but was actually 5 hours. Tony was hitting me with the stuffed turtle David won for me, "You never told me you got a stuffed turtle." "Yeah because David won it for me last night." I said sitting up and stretching. "Well we are here so you can go back to his bus." He said while I got up instantly and grabbing my clothes walking towards the bathroom. I changed quickly and combed my hair after taking it out of the bun. I walked off the bus walking into a giant, also known as Austin. He handed me a monster and I walked to the BC bus. I looked into the lounge to see David sleeping, he was snoring a little again. I giggled then climbed through the window, with Austin helping me because I was tired and had a monster in my hand. I carefully stepped onto the couch and stepped onto the floor, I unlocked the lounge door and walked out going to the kitchen to find Kyle "Let me guess, gonna prank David to wake him up." "You know it." I said smirking. I grabbed some ice cubes and put them into a container with some salt making it colder. I walked back to the lounge, I carefully took the blanket off of David. I lifted up his basketball short carefully then I dumped the ice cubes into his shorts. I went to the door and ran out to the front of the bus. You could her him yell, "COLD! VERY VERY COLD!" He came running out of the lounge jumping around. He ran to the bathroom and into the bathroom he locked the door. He called for me, I went to the door. "Yeah babe?" "Can you get me a new pair of boxers and basketball shorts since you were the one who dumped the ice down my shorts." "Sure." I said walking towards his bunk, I grabbed his pair of hello kitty boxers and his red Nike shorts. I knocked on the bathroom door that opened up enough for me to hand him his boxers and shorts. I handed them to him and walked back to the lounge with a towel to wipe up any spilt water. Then David walked in, "That wasn't nice." He said pouting. I shut the door and locked it. "I sowwy." I said hanging my head. "You have to make it up to me." "How should I make it up to you?" I already knew the answer after he started kissing my lips. He shoved me against the door and put his hands on my hips, I put my hands in his hair. Put one hand on the small of my back, he started deepening the kiss. He slid his tongue across my bottom lip begging for permission. I opened my mouth and we fought for dominance, he won again. He explored my mouth and we went back to regular kissing. Soon we pulled apart gasping for air, he smiled and kissed my neck. I held in a moan that was going to slip out, he kept kissing me neck. "You know I won't stop kissing your neck until you moan." He said smirking. He started to kiss my neck again and after he found my sweet spot I let out a little moan. He smirked and kissed my lips one last time. He had to go to a signing then it was his set.

I went back to our bus to hear Tony, Mitch, Austin, Alan, Jaime, Vic and Mike yelling. This is just fucking great. Soon some girl walked out, "Stay away from Mike he's mine." She hissed. I looked her in the eyes and punched her in the nose, she yelped in pain and fell to the floor. Everyone came running out of the bunk area, Mike rushed to the girls side while everyone else smirked. He took her to the medical tent, "Thank You for punching that bitch Shy." "Hey she had to tell me Mike was hers when obviously have no I treat in him anymore. Maybe due to the fact he can't keep it in his pants and does it in my bunk." I said sitting down. Soon Mike came in, "WHAT THE FUCK SHY?!" "NO MIKE, WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY THE HELL DO YOU KEEP FUCKING HER IN MY FUCKING BUNK?! I AM DONE WITH THIS FUCKING SHIT I QUIT! I CAN'T BE ON THE SAME BUS AS MIKE AND THAT FUCKING SLUT!" I yelled the last part a little too loudly but I didn't care. I grabbed all of my stuff and walked out, I ignored the calls for me and I went to the BC bus. I put my stuff in the lounge and went to their set, when David came off stage and saw me he smiled, I gave him a weak smile back. "What's wrong babe?" "Well I kind of punched the slut mime keeps fucking in old bunk, I quit my job, and I do-" "you do have a bus to stay on because you can stay on mine. And you do have a job, you're our merch girl." He said smiling making me smile. We walked back to the bus and he put my stuff in a empty bunk and said I will sleep in his bunk with him. I was happy David is letting me stay here.

We ended up watching movies for about 3 hours. I walked outside of the bus and everything was nice outside, until the slut I punched marched up to me. She tried to slap me but I dodged it. She tried to punch me but I caught her fist and threw it making her punch herself in her face. I put her in an armlock "You listen to me bitch. Leave me the fuck alone, and if you ever fuck with me again or try to slap or punch me. You will get your fucking ass kicked." I growled into her ear while she nodded and ran off after I let go. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up to see Mitch, he had a big smile on his face. We fist bumped and he actually had video of the whole thing. Apparently when you grow up loving MMA you learn a few things. He went to show some people the video and I walked on the bus. 'My life is fucking great.' I thought smiling.

Notes
