the months on the road had taken their toll on evelyn and the band, but as the tour neared its end, there was an undeniable excitement that pulsed through them. however, the anticipation was not solely tied to the final concert in perth; it was about reuniting with sam after what felt like an eternity, even if they saw each other two months ago, and had been talking almost every day.

as the singer called sam to share the news of her imminent arrival in perth, the joy in their voices was evident. "i can't wait to see you," the striker exclaimed. "i'll be back in a couple of days, just in time for your concert."

"that's perfect!" evelyn replied, a smile evident in her words. "we've got backstage passes ready for you, and you can meet the band. it's going to be amazing."

the day of the concert arrived, and the girl was practically buzzing with energy. she had made arrangements to pick up sam, not just for the concert but for the sweet reunion they both craved in their hometown.

as she headed to sam's place, her excitement reached new heights. the thought of seeing the footballer again after the long tour filled her with a warmth that surpassed any fatigue she might have felt. she welcomed her with open arms, the familiarity of their connection instantly putting them at ease.

"guess what i brought you?" evelyn grinned, holding out one of the tour merch shirts. "you're wearing this tonight. no negotiations."

sam laughed, taking the shirt from the girl. "well, if it's coming from you, how can i refuse?" she playfully nudged her girlfriend, her eyes filled with affection.

evelyn smirked. "good choice. now, put it on. i want the full experience," she said, half joking, half not.

the striker didn't hesitate. right there in her living room, she began changing into the shirt, leaving evelyn momentarily surprised. despite their history, sam's carefree attitude always managed to catch her off guard. she couldn't help but appreciate the view, a flush creeping onto her cheeks.

once she was dressed in the merch shirt, the singer's eyes lingered on her for a moment longer. "you look amazing," she admitted, a mix of admiration and adoration in her gaze.

sam flashed a mischievous grin. "well, it's all for you anyway."

the girl chuckled. "i'm glad." as the banter continued, the air between them seemed to crackle with familiarity and comfort.

the drive to the concert venue was filled with laughter, their conversations seamlessly blending into the familiar connection they had developed over the years. the excitement in the air was infectious, and evelyn couldn't shake the feeling that this night was going to be something special.

as they arrived at the place, the buzz of anticipation surrounded them. backstage, the band members greeted sam with genuine warmth. it was a moment of convergence, where two significant parts of evelyn's world collided. the footballer, with her easy charm, quickly endeared herself to the band members, and it wasn't long before they were all sharing stories and laughs.

max, with an enthusiastic grin, couldn't contain her excitement. "finally get to meet you after hearing about you for almost a decade!" she exclaimed.

"it's great to finally meet you too," sam replied. "i feel like i know you all already from evelyn's stories."

carlos and alex joined the gathering, offering warm greetings to sam. the friendship between the band members and sam quickly erased any initial awkwardness, and soon they were conversing as if they had known each other for years.

as the clock ticked down to showtime, the singer stole a moment alone with her girlfriend amidst the backstage chaos. the air was charged with anticipation, and sam couldn't help but feel a surge of pride for evelyn and her bandmates.
