Friendships Never End

~5 year later~

It has been 5 years we got signed, 5 years since I gave up on all contact with my friends in SD, 5 years and I have 1 sleeve, a leg, and my back covered in tattoos. I am 20 and still single and I only hang out with guys, how ironic. We are getting ready for our biggest tour we have ever been on, we will be there with 4 other bands. Pierce the Veil, Bring Me The Horizon, Sleeping with Sirens, and Motionless in White. We already knew Motionless in White due to the fact that Jake and Chris are cousins. We have spent a lot of time with those guys and I became close to Ricky Horror to the point he is like my big brother. I was packing all of stuff for the tour when Ricky walked in my room with a box in his hands. "I got you a present to wear on stage." he said handing me the box. I opened it to find a black t-shirt with white lettering that said 'I LOVE RICKY HORROR'. He started laughing and I put it on his head. I walked downstairs and saw Chris right away. "Chris what did I say to you about letting Ricky buying me presents." "To always watch him when he does why?" "Because he bought me a shirt that say I love Ricky Horror in all caps." I said smirking. "RICKY QUIT BUYING SHY THINGS THAT SAYS SHE LOVES YOU! GIVE IT A FUCKING REST MAN!" Chris yelled since Ricky was still upstairs. He walked down with his head hanging down, "I put a lot of thought into this gift." He said plopping down on the couch as I walked back to my room. I finished packing 30 minutes before our bus arrived.

We would be sharing a big bus with Pierce The Veil since the had 4 members like us. I threw on the Ozzy Osbourne sweatshirt Mike loved and put on the black skinnies and Vans that Vic bought me. I put on a necklace that Kellin bought me and all of the bracelets he bought me too. I missed them but I know they have all moved on from me. I grabbed my bags and walked downstairs right when the bus arrived. I walked outside when I saw a familiar face walking off the bus, "Vic?" "SHY!" he yelled running towards me embracing me in a hug, "I missed you Mi hermosa rosa." (I missed you my beautiful rose) He said still hugging me. "I missed you too, I thought you guys would forget me." I said looking down. "How in the hell could we forget the girl who's life we have saved 5 times?" he said releasing me from the hug. I shrugged and he yelled towards the bus "MICHEAL CHRISTOPHER FUENTES GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE!" Mike opened the door "VIC I AM FU- SHY!" he yelled running towards me and lifting me off the ground. "Jesus Fucking Christ since when did you get this tall Whiskey Hands." He smiled after I called him the old nickname I gave him after he would always have a whiskey scent on his hands. He placed me down "we'll see I hit this thing called puberty, I also-" "LALALALALALALALALALALA I DO NOT WANT TO FUCKING KNOW MICHEAL!" I yelled with a disgusted look on my face. Vic grabbed my bag while Mike carrierd me to the bus. He set me down when someone instantly wrapped their arms around me engulfing me into a big hug, it had to be Jaime. "I missed you too Jaime now please let me breathe." I said trying to get out of his grip. Mike turned to me and looked at my shirt "I can't believe you still have that sweatshirt, you know I still have your Ozzy t-shirt." I nodded smiling remembering when I let him borrow it but forget to get it back. Vic looked at my jeans and shoes "Oh my god you still have those, I thought you would just throw them out after you left" "Nope. I wear these jeans a lot actually and I didn't wear the shoes before because I didn't want to get them worn out, I kept them for a big tour like this." I said looking down. Jaime picked me up and set me in a bunk, "this will be your bunk as you see we decked it out with Pantera and other band posters, also it has a DVD player right up here." He said pointing towards it. "Thanks Hime-time, I think I am going to sleep since I stayed up all night packing, tell the rest of my band mates I'm sleeping." I said yawning, he nodded and shut the curtain for me. I wrapped myself up in a Star Wars blanket I brought and slept on my Jack Skellington pillow.

I woke up to somebody poking me, "Fuck off." I said turning the other way, "Well that is rude counting that I was just going to tell you were here." Mike said leaving me alone. I groaned and jumped out of my bunk almost face planting, my shirt went up and Mike gasped. "I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAS TATTOOS, LEMME SEE THEM ALL!" He gushed as he started fan girling. "I you will see them after I change don't worry." I said as I grabbed my clothes and walked into the bathroom locking the door. I changed into a cropped tank top and short shorts. I walked out of the bathroom and Mike, Vic, and Jaime gasped as they saw all the tattoos. "Oh yeah. I kind of have changed a lot since I last saw you guys." "You can say that again, you have tats, sexy curves, and a Monroe Piercing." Mike said smirking while he checked me out. "It's not nice to stare Michael" I said smirking, then he walked in the room. The one and only, Tony Perry. I stood up and tried to run when he grabbed my hand, he made me go to the lounge with him. "Shy I am sorry for what I said 5 years ago, I am sorry that I hurt you with all the words I said. I want to be friends again." He pleaded "Please forgive me." He said with hope in his eyes. "I forgive you Tony but promise me you won't say those things again." I said, he nodded and we hugged. "D'awwww they made up!" I heard Mike say as he smilied. "Yeah we did, know if you don't mind I am going to meet the other band beside MIW. " "okay but be back for dinner" Vic said in a motherly voice. I laughed and walked off the bus, I saw somebody standing in the distance but I ignored them. Instead I took out my pack of cigarettes and pulled one out. I placed it between my lips and lit it with my lighter, I inhaled and blew out the smoke. After I finished my cigarette I walked towards a bus that said Sleeping With Sirens on the side in big white letters.

I knocked on the door and someone with long black hair opened the door. "Shy?" "Kellin?" I questioned and he hugged me. "I missed you so so much Shy." "I missed you too Kel." I said as he released me, his band members walked in and introduced themselves "I'm Jesse." "Justin" "hey I'm Gabe" "and I am Jack." They all said shaking my hand. "Shy I can't believe you still have that necklace and all of those bracelets." "I could never get rid of something that reminded me of my friendship with someone who let me spill all of problems out to without making fun of me or ignoring me when I needed them." I said with a smile. I hugged Kellin one last time and told him I was going to The BMTH bus. I walked over to the next bus, I was about to knock when a familiar face hugged me. "I missed you Shy." "I missed you too Oli" I said as he released me from the hug. We talked for an hour and I went back to our bus. We performed and afterwards everybody went to party on the MIW bus except for me. I sat in my bunk and watched movies on my little DVD player. I was going to go to sleep when someone walked on the bus, they opened my curtain I little and I knew it was Oli. "What's wrong Oli bear?" I said as I put the DVD player back up. "M-my fiancé cheated on me" he said breaking down. "Come on and get in the bunk with me." He did what I said and cuddled up next to me and cried. After 5 minutes he calmed down and we started watching movies. After the second movie we fell asleep with Oli's arm wrapped around my waist and my head resting on his chest.
