Forget Your Mistakes
I've Always Got You On My Mind
As expected, Hot Chelle Rae gave the crowd everything they had. The crowd screamed, they laughed, they cried, they screamed some more. But once I saw Jamie stand up and take a microphone, I knew something was up. "Oh, Alex," he sang, "Would you please make your way over to the stage?" He turned around to look at me as I wildly shook my head no. But, lucky for Jamie, Ryan was there to help me walk on stage. And by walk, I mean he had to throw me over his shoulder. When Ryan put me back down, Jamie pulled me closer to him and draped his arm on my shoulder. I glared at him as the crowd stared at us.
He turned to address the crowd, "I don't know if any of you noticed, but there was one song on the new album that we didn't play tonight." The crowd erupted in screams and applause as I just stood there. "I wrote this song a little over a year ago for this beautiful lady right here, and I only thought it would be appropriate to embarrass the shit out of her and sing it to her in front of all of you tonight," he grinned evily. I stole the mic from Jamie, "Does anyone know how to drum, because after tonight, Hot Chelle Rae's going to need a new drummer." The crowd laughed as Jamie pulled up a stool and took the mic again, "I love you, too, Alex."
He pulled me over and sat me down and smiled, "Now, just relax and enjoy the music." I couldn't look anywhere but at my shoes. He ran backstage to grab Ryan's guitar and when he came back out, he made me look up at him before he started playing.
He sang through Keep You With Me along with the crowd and when he played the last chord, he sat the guitar down on the stage and pulled me up into a hug. The crowd awed at us, but when Jamie kissed me, they went absolutely crazy and I couldn't help but smile.
Jamie thanked the crowd and picked me up and carried me off stage. Once backstage, I hit Jamie's arm and laughed, "Jamie Christian Follese, don't you ever do that to me again!" "I actually think I'm going to have to make it a regular thing now. I mean, they already know it's our song. It's only a matter of time before word gets out and people will be expecting it every show," Jamie smirked. "I hate you," I smiled. "I love you, too," he laughed.
