Avril-
Knock, Knock!
“Come in!” I shouted as I put on my eyeliner in my dressing room. Evan came into the room, yawning. You could tell he was tired.
“It’s 15 minutes before the show. Matt told me to remind you.”
“Oh, ok. I’ll be out in a little while.”
“Ok. I’ll wait near the stage entrance for you.”
“Ok. Oh, and remember, don’t fuck up!” I told him this before every show and each time, he found it funny. Evan smiled a bit at me and then quietly left the room.
I went back to putting on my makeup. I was almost done. I was putting on my eyeshadow, my last addition to my makeup, when I heard another knock on the door. I thought it was Evan, coming back to tell me he forget something. He always did that.
“Come in.” I hollered. The door slowly opened and when I saw who came in, my heart dropped. I felt my palms grow sweaty. It was Deryck. For a minute, we just stared at each other, not saying anything. It was becoming quite awkward.
“Hey, Avril.” He said this looking at the floor, almost shy. I never saw him shy before. He looked so cute.
“Hey.” I said. I also looked down and noticed that my legs began to shake. I tried to regain my composure but it was almost impossible.
“Um, Avril, I was wondering, if, um, you would like to, um, join me tomorrow for a night at Spider Club.”
I looked up shocked at what he just said. I thought I was dreaming. I had to make sure I wasn’t imagining things. “Excuse me?”
“Would you like to go out with me tomorrow?”
I felt my heart drop further into my body. I could feel my cheeks grow hotter by the minute. I hated myself for feeling this way. I couldn’t just stay normal. “Like on a date?” I felt so stupid but the words were just coming out of me like water. I couldn’t even think about them first.
“Um, yeah.”
“Oh, um, okay. What time will you pick me up?”
“I was thinking around 6:30. Is that alright with you?”
“Yeah, sure.”
Deryck smiled at me and came closer. I froze and just stared at me. I wanted to let out a scream; I felt like such a baby. But, whatever, I wanted him so bad I guess it was normal to feel that way.

Deryck-
I walked up to her. She turned her back to me, facing the mirror, continuing to put on her makeup. “Um, Avril?”
“Yeah.” She turned around again, facing me. She jumped. I guess she hadn’t noticed how close I had gotten to her. My body was pressed up against hers and her lips were about 5 cm away from mine. I stared at her lips, wanting to kiss her. I wanted to hold her. I wanted to touch her. I wanted a lot of things. But, it was too soon to do anything. She would probably get offended if I went too fast with her. So, to respect her, I didn’t do anything. She began to blush. She looked down at the floor and then quickly looked back at me. She stared at me for a very long time, almost in a trance. Then, I realized that she was waiting for me to tell her something. After all, I had called her over for a second time.
“Oh, um, so I guess ill see you tomorrow?”
“Yeah, sure. I’d love to see you tomorrow.”
“Great.” I looked at her and smiled gently. She was so beautiful. I just wanted to hold her close to me and kiss her passionately. At that moment, I turned away and walked out of the room.

Avril-
What was I thinking? How could I say that? “I’d love to see you tomorrow?” It sounded so weird. It sounded almost desperate. But, whatever, I looked forward to tomorrow. I couldn’t wait. For once in my life, my dreams were becoming reality.

Deryck-
I was walking down the hallway when Stevo stopped me. “I saw you come out of her room. Did you ask her?”
“Yeah.” I smiled and blushed.
“And…?” He was waiting for me to go into details but I didn’t feel comfortable just yet to tell him everything.
“And…she said yes.”
I didn’t wait to hear Stevo’s response. At that moment, I walked over to Cone and began a random conversation about our next album. Inside, I couldn’t wait for tomorrow. I braced myself, knowing that one mistake could mess up everything. I just wanted everything to go great. I hoped that it would.
