Walk Away I'm Okay

The Good Life

I stood on the side of the stage, it was our last show of the tour. I had my guitar around my shoulders in my hands as CiCi, Dan and Eric were in place. The crowd was going crazy.

I looked over at my Dad who was watching me with a grin. Before my hands started to play the song we were starting off with the show. Making my way onto the stage with the lights shining out towards the crowd. I reach the microphone before the lyrics were set to start.

"The good life is what I need
Too many people stepping over me
The only thing that's been on my mind
Is the one thing I need before I die

All I wantis a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
The good life

I don't really know who I am
It's time for me to take a stand
I need a change and I need it fast
I know that any day could be the last

All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life

Hold on, hold on, I always wanted it this way

(I never wanted it this way)
Hold on, hold on, I always wanted it this way
(We didn't ask for it this way)
I always wanted it this way

The good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
The good life."


I let out a scream before we started with a cover of my dad's band's song. Making the crowd go wild. As I played the chords by heart with a wild grin on my face as Eric came towards me with his twisted grin on his face towards the the microphone.

"Caught up in this madness too blind to see
Woke animal feelings in me
Took over my sense and I lost control
I'll taste your blood tonight


You know I make you wanna scream
You know I make you wanna run from me baby
But know it's too late you've wasted all your time

Relax while you're closing your eyes to me
So warm as I'm setting you free
With your arms by your side there's no struggling
Pleasure's all mine this time


You know I make you wanna scream
You know I make you wanna run from me baby
But know it's too late you've wasted all your time

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring
Cover me, unwanted clemency
Scream till there's silence
Scream while there's life left, vanishing
Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire
Perishing.


We've all had a time where we've lost control,
We've all had our time to grow,
I'm hoping I'm wrong but I know I'm right,
I'll hunt again one night.

You know I make you wanna scream,
You know I make you wanna run from me baby,
But know it's too late you've wasted all your time.

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring,
Cover me, unwanted clemency,
Scream till there's silence,
Scream while there's life left, vanishing,
Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire.
Perishing.
"

I took center stage and CiCi met me as we mirrored each other. Before I licked her cheek causing her to stick out her tongue at me. Before I walked back to Eric who grinned at me as I continued to play.

"Some live repressing their instinctive feelings,
Protest the way we're built don't point the blame on me.

Scream, scream, scream the way you would if I ravaged your body,
Scream, scream, scream the way you would if I ravaged your mind.

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring,
Cover me, unwanted clemency,
Scream till there's silence,
Scream while there's life left, vanishing,
Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire.
Perishing.
"

I swear the crowd got louder once we finished the song. Though we didn't stop there we kept going giving them one of the best shows we did on the tour. At least that's what I thought.

Skipping After Show

I was gulping down a bottle of water and whipping the sweat that had grew on my forehead. When I felt strong arms wrap around my waist as I was soon hoisted into the air. I squealed as I looked down and noticed the monster tattoos.

"DAD put me down!!!" I screamed while laughing as he twirled me around.

"My Daughter is pure genius!!" he called out to the chuckling roadies and stage hands.

"Put me down!!" I laughed out.

He finally put me down kissing my sweaty forehead.

"Your amazing Jordan you know that?" he said with a wild grin.

I shrugged. "well I did have a great inspiration his name you know is Synyster Gates, he's badass at the guitar." I said with a grin while walking towards the buses. He chuckled.

"Oh really? How'd you learn those badass moves then?" he asked

"Lots and Lots of practice, and it helps that I have some Gates blood running through my veins you know?" I asked while winking.

He chuckled and wrapped his arm across my shoulders.

"It does doesn't?" he said with a grin.

"Yup!"

"JORDAN!!"

I looked over at the parking lot seeing Dan running towards me.

"What?"

"J-Ji T-The R-REV praised me." he stuttered with wide eyes.

I tilted my head at him. "Huh?"

"THE REV PRAISED ME HE MY FUCKING IDOL PRAISED ME LITTLE OL' ME!!!!" He screamed before taking off faster then he came. My dad and I watched him as he screamed at the passing people.

"Well that's interesting?" my dad muttered.

I just nodded. "That's Dan for you." I mummer.

"JoJo" I turned my head smiling once I see Leo standing there with a grin on his face. My dad let me go and gently pushed me towards Leo.

"Go on I have to find Jimmy and make sure he's not scaring any kids." he said with a grin. I smiled and went towards Leo who placed his arm over my shoulders smiling down at me.

"That show was great JoJo." he said kissing my forehead.

"Thanks you guys did awesome too." I giggled

"I'm actually glad it's the last of this tour." he said quietly as we walked slowly towards the busses.

"Why is that" I asked

"Cause it means I get to take you on a proper date Miss Haner." he said bowing towards me with a grin.

"Yay!" I clapped at his little bow. He just rolled his eyes before sweeping me literally off my feet and over his shoulder.

"Oh hush you, or I won't take you anywhere and we'll just sit in your dad's living room playing games." he said

I hummed before giggling as he poked me in the side.

"But I like that idea." I squealed as I tried to get away from his finger.

"Nuh uh!!" he said

"Yeah huh!"

"What are you two on?" I heard from beside us turning my head I see Eric standing there holding a water in his hand, his hair looked wet and his clothes were changed.

"Air!!!" I exclaimed while Leo put me down on the ground.

"Maybe we should just let you sit in your bunk for a little while." he said with a grin.

I widen my eyes before hiding behind Leo.

"No!!! I like air and CiCi is probably making it smell fruity." I gagged at the thought of CiCi's over smelling perfume she caked on. I swear if she wasn't my best friend I would kick her butt for it.

"She's in the shower so I wouldn't enter unless you want to gag." Eric said as he walked off.

I smiled over at Leo who was looking at me.

"Soo about those games and going out?"

He just grinned and soon I felt his lips on mine, which brought a smile to my face.

'God I love this boy.' I thought.
