|Entry#22: Dear Lance|

Dear Lance,

I finally get to see you guys at the Stadium Hall. I couldn't afford the tickets but when my mom gave me them the morning of the concert, I went berserk. If you don't get this email on time, you'll probably see me in the front row screaming your name with my friends Lisa and Trevor. Lisa is a big fan of yours. She has all of your designer clothes and band t-shirts. She even has all your albums including the special editions. Trevor likes your music and he has started to play guitar just like I started to play bass. So we were gonna start our own band. I just wanted to say that you're really cute and I wish that you lived down my street instead of in Maine.

From Cassidy

Dear Cassidy,

One of our stage crew member's name is Cassidy. Stadium Hall is one of my favorite sights to see. The stage is so big and you could jump around and everything! The amp bar is pretty cool too. Your parents sound cooler than mine. My parents would never do that even if I killed myself. Lucky for you that I'm replying to this because it's only 2 o'clock PM and there's already a line of people outside. People always yell my name at concerts. But they also yell everyone else's name too. They scream and I just smile. So maybe I will see you and your friends. Be sure to buy the band T's at the show. It would be great to meet you guys.

From Lanc3

Lance angrily shut the laptop. He glanced out the window and saw nothing. Someone knocked on his door. "Lance! Get out here! The M&G fans are here!" Harvey cried, glancing back and forth between Lance and whatever was behind him.
Emerson pushed the door open. "Get the hell in here. This is the most important day of our tour days."
He sat up and glared at Emerson. "What about Day? What are we going to do about-"
"GUYS! DAINA'S HERE!" Someone shouted.
A crowd of people screamed. Lance already knew the meet and greet people were already backstage.
The top of Daina's black and purple head was visible. Emerson smiled and pushed her shoulders.
"Hey, guys." Daina smiled. "What are you up to?" Two girls screamed as Daina reared closer and a couple of boys yelled her name.
Emerson spoke with a group of kids that dressed similar to him.
Josh chatted with a few of his own fans.
Lance left his room. The many girls screamed his name and they rushed to him. It was their first tour and they already loved him.

They all left to the general admission standing area.
Daina, Josh, Lance, and Emerson met up before the first band, Killa Boy, went out. Jason hopped up and down.
"Day, we were worried sick about you. Where were you?" Emerson asked.
Daina laughed. "Are you serious? I told you guys that I was going out to eat something. I was starving and I was sick of the van food."
Josh wrapped an arm around Daina. "Now that we all know where Day was...let's get going. Jason needs to warm up."
Jason laughed. "Oh, thanks. That helps a lot."
"You're welcome and I know." Josh laughed.

Daina took her purple and black guitar, tightening the strap around her neck.
Lance also strapped his guitar, making sure his guitar could play the notes on the right pitch.
Emerson played his warm-up with his bass while having the crew fix his ear piece.
Josh played the air drums while listening to his own music in his iPod.
Cassidy and Lina pushed Josh to his drumset.
Harvey plugged in Daina's guitar and gave her a thumbs up.
Darren turned on the amp bar and all the other lights and amps.
"You ready?" Cassidy asked.
Josh nodded his head and took off his shirt.
Emerson stood on the side of the stage waiting for the lights to dim once again so the darkness was just as fine.
Lance and Daina stood on the other end of the stage also waiting for the lights to dim.

"Are you guys ready to rock?! WITH THE DEADLY SINS?!" The announcer yelled into his mic. Daina ran out on stage first and Lance ran out after. One light was showing on Daina and the crowd started going. "Could you ever? Would you ever? Can you ever...kill me. Could you ever? Would you ever? Can you ever..." A light flashed on Lance as he grabbed his mic and screamed, "KILL ME!!"
They all started playing.
"And these lyrics could never wake me up. But can they take up my time. Take. Up. My Time." Daina backed away and played her guitar.
Lance walked up to her mic and started singing, "Why don't you understand? These questions in my head. I just can't get you out. I just won't let you leave my head."
They kept playing and Daina ran over to the edge of the stage. The crowd was reaching out to her but she couldn't stop playing and talk. She had a concert to finish. She had a boyfriend to have fun with.
"These questions in my head! I just can't let them out! Why won't you get out! I kept on screaming out!" Lance screamed. Daina laughed as Lance almost tripped over the wire. She went over to his mic and sang with him. "You took my hand. You made me understand it all. And I just don't get it. Why won't you leave...me...alone! Why won't you just go! Why not just go alone! You love her and not me!"
Daina stopped playing and took her own mic into her hands.
"So, you guys like this concert?" Everybody screamed as they kept playing the beat. "We're Deadly Sins. And we would like to say, our sins are for you to listen to...and as deadly as they are...keep listening!"
Two girls and one guy kept screaming Lance's name and Lance smiled. He laughed.
Cassidy. Lisa. Trevor. Some fans they are.
