**Nicole’s P.O.V.**
**The Day Of The Concert**
I woke up with a message from Oli. I smiled as a read it.
From: Olober <3
Hey baby ;) Hope you slept well. Come to the place around 6:00 P.M. You guys will come backstage and spend about an hour with the rest of the band. A few minutes before the show starts you guys will move and go to the first row :D Also, you guys will come with us later and join the after concert party. You can thank me later. I also invited Mike since I know there is something going around you two, ;) Message me when you arrive.
It was already the day of the concert. The day where I will finally see them live and hang out with them later in the after show party! I knew right away that this day would be great. How did he know that there was something going about between Mike and me? Well, I mean we are not even actually together. We just happened to spend time together and there were just a few kisses. However we weren’t technically together.

Hey Oli :) I’m finally going to meet the whole band! :D Sorry about the fan girl, but you have to remember that you guys are like my favorite. We’ll be there perfectly on time don’t worry ;) Um, I don’t want to get you wrong however Mike and I are not actually together. We are just seeing each other. :P See you there my wonderful and sexy idol ;)
I got up and decided to get ready. I wore my Bring Me The Horizon tank top, black jeans, light blue vans and beanie. Crimson and I haven’t really talked after what happened. I got my earphones and decided to play my music at maximum volume. I didn’t care if you could hear the music even if you were like 5 feet away I just wanted my music. I clicked shuffle and “If These Sheets Were States” by All Time Low came up. I kept my head down and walked to the couch. I got no idea if Josh and Crimson were up and said something to me. My music just blocked them out completely. I lay on the couch and closed my eyes. I got no idea how, however I was able to fall asleep with the music just blasting my ears.
I woke up I think two hours later. I opened my eyes and took off my earphones still blasting music. I looked up and saw Josh and Crimson looking at me. I looked at the time and it was 4:30 P.M. Wow we really needed to get our stuff ready if we wanted to arrive in time.
“Umm, you finally woke up Nicole. How did you fall asleep with that music?” Crimson asked me. I started laughing because it was just weird.
“To tell you the truth I got no idea. Didn’t I tell you that I was fucked up? I can do stuff normal people can’t do, like listening to music at maximum volume and still be able to fall asleep. Anyway please don’t start jumping around however Oliver texted me and said the first of all we have to be there by 6:00 P.M. because he would bring us backstage and let us stay with the rest of the band for about an hour before the show starts. Also after the show ends we can join to their after concert party.” I said and all of a sudden their eyes widen up. They jumped up and started getting all excited.
“WHAT? Just wait a few minutes I have to get ready! OMG I’m going to spend not only a whole hour with them but also have a party! Wow I’m so happy that you are seeing with Oli! Thank you so much Nicole!” Crimson jumped and hugged me. Well, I guess she isn’t that angry at me anymore. Crimson left right away to get ready.
“Wow, this is amazing Nicole. I don’t know what to say. This day is going to be one of my favorites of all time. Um, however there is something I really need to know. What is going on between you two? Are you guys a thing or not?” He told me. Were Oli and I a thing? No, of course not. I was seeing Mike and Oli was just a friend. However in the past days we did get closer. We’ve gotten to know each other.
“Umm, to tell you the truth no. I mean yeah we’ve gotten to know each other. However he is just a friend. Plus I already need to get things figured out with Mike. I don’t even know if we are together or not. All we did was hang out and there were some kisses. However Oli and I are just friends.” I told him. He smiled and seemed to understand. He just hugged me. Crimson started running with all her stuff.
“C’mon let’s go, the last thing I want is to arrive late and make your friendddd sad.” She said while pulling Josh and me out of the house. She emphasized the word friend, however I decided to ignore it. He was my friend after all. We got the taxi and arrived to the place at 5:30 P.M. I took out my phone and messaged Oli.
To: Olober <3
Hey Oli, we just arrived. :) I don’t know where Mike is however I think he will arrive in a bit. So we are at the back part of the building. I want to meet the band so you better move fast. I’m afraid the fans will understand who I am and attack me :P
I put my phone and my pocket. I looked at Josh and Crimson. They were holding hands and looking at each other. I had to admit they were really cute together. I looked back at the door and saw Oli opening it and closing it behind him. He started walking towards me with a smile on his face.
“OLIII!!” I screamed while I was running to go hug him. His smiled widened while he opened his arms ready for the hug. I pretty much jumped on him while he lifted me up, give me a swirl and put me back down. In a matter a few seconds Josh and Crimson caught up. The fans started to get crazy once again.
“OLI I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!”
“YOU TWO MAKE A PERFECT COUPLE!”
“MARRY ME OLI YOU DON’T DESERVE HER!” The fans were screaming while he closed the door behind him. Wow those fans can be really crazy. I hadn’t noticed that Oli was holding my hand. His hand fitted perfectly in mine. It just felt so right. However I knew this was a bit wrong. I had to first fix the situation with Mike. I didn’t even know if we were together or not! We walked into the living room where all the other guys were. Matt Nicholls was the first one to get up.
“Hey Nicole! Nice to see you again.” He said while hugging me. Nicholls was so sweet. He smiled as he introduced himself to Josh and Crimson that were almost in panic.
“Hey I’m Matt, just call me Nicholls since there are two of us here. Nice to meet you both.” He said. In the mean time Matt Kean got up.
“So you are the Nicole I heard a lot from – uh never mind. I’m Kean nice to actually finally meet you.” He told me and hugged me. Um, what did Oli talk about me? Never mind I hugged Kean back. Now it was Jordan’s turn.
“Hey, I’m Jordan. Pretty much the newbie of the group but I like it here. It’s a pleasure to meet you.” He gave me a warm smile and hugged me. Now the last person was Lee. He seemed a bit shy.
“Hello, I’m Lee. It’s, um, it’s nice to meet you Nicole. I hope you have fun tonight.” He told me and hugged me. Wow I didn’t get all those hugs all together in a bit of time. Lee looked at Crimson. She was like about to faint or something.
“Wow, Crimson you okay?” Nicholls asks. She was about to explode or something. She was just able to nod and turned to josh. A small squeal escaped her mouth. Josh sighed.
“Baby, Crimson calm down. They are HUMAN BEINGS you know. They are not aliens. They are just like us. Calm down.” She nodded and hugged him. I looked down on my phone and got a message.
From: Mike :)
Hey baby, I think I just arrived. Sorry if I’m like a few minutes late. Would you come get me? I’m afraid these fans will kill me if I stay here any longer. :P
I turned to Oli. He was staring at me and smiling.
“Umm… Oli, Mike just arrived. I will come back in like a few seconds. I have to save him from the dangers of your fans you know.” He smiled and nodded. I ran up to the door opened it and closed it right away behind me. I looked around and saw Mike in front of me. He smiled and walked towards me. The fans started getting crazy again.
“IT’S HER!”
“YOU STOLE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!”
“FOR HOW LONG HAVE YOU TWO BEEN DATING?”
“WHY DO YOU GET OLI?”
“I SHIP NICOLI!!!” The fans screamed, as I was able to close the door. Mike was looking at me furious. Please tell me he wasn’t thinking that what the fans had said was true.
“Um, can you please explain me what was that over there?” He asked me. He had his arms crossed across his chest.
“You believe them? C’mon they are fans. All they need is a picture of us together and they think we’re a couple. We are JUST friends. Calm down Mike.” I told him trying to calm him down. However I knew that it wasn’t working.
“Oh so now the fans are crazy? You are one of them remember that! What is Nicoli then?!” He started to scream now. I felt my throat getting dry and my eyes starting to water.
“Oh come on! You actually think that Oli and I are together?! We have only met! He is MY FRIEND! We are NOT together!” I started to scream back while warm tears running down my face.
“YOU THINK I’M STUPID OR SOMETHING! You know what? Don’t even try to come back to the shop! YOU ARE FIRED! I don’t want to hear from you anymore! BYE NICOLE! It is over!” He screamed as he left me alone crying. How could he do something like that?
I turned around and saw Oli standing there. I bet he was there the whole time and heard the whole conversation. Oli started walking towards me while more tears covered my face. Well, great job Nicole. It was supposed to be a great day and you are crying in front of Oli. Just good job Nicole. He came and hugged me.
“Calm down Nicole. Everything will be fine. Cry it will make you feel better later.” All I was able to do was nod while I buried my face in his chest. I was getting his whole shirt wet and I hated it. He didn’t seem to care at all. I just continued sobbing my heart out on him. He just remained there letting me cry. Then he took my head and lifted it. I gave him a faint smile. However you could still see that I was sad.
“Hey, everything will be alright ok? I already asked Josh and Crimson and they said yes. Would you like to come with the guys and me on our tour? There will also be Pierce The Veil being our guest band. We will have a great time I promise.” My face lighten up with those words. I was going to spend a whole tour with them. Wow, how can I not say yes? I tried to speak but nothing came out of my mouth. I just nodded and buried my face once again in his chest. He bent forward and kissed my forehead.
“C’mon let’s go. There about 5 minutes until the show starts. You have to go to the first row and I have to change this shirt.” He told me while he cleaned my tears with his thumb. How can anybody be nicer than this? I shouldn’t be thinking about Mike anymore. I had Oli, his band, Crimson, and Josh. I nodded and smiled. I walked down to the bodyguards as they brought me to the first row next to Crimson and Josh.
**So what do you guys think? I hope you liked the chapter and the story so far. Right now I’m in Frankfurt and I went on YouTube. I wanted to watch Drown by BMTH. I clicked on the video and then this came up “Unfortunately, this video is not available in this country because it could contain music, for which we could not agree on conditions of use with GEMA.” I mean it’s only MUSIC! I feel sad about this now :( Feel free to give me any advice **
