Status: I don't know anymore.
I Really ***ed It Up This Time, Didn't I, My Dear?
Not your fault but mine
I pulled my stuff behind me as I got on a plane to head off to my new job. I can't believe i was actually gonna be traveling across america photographing rock band. I headed to my gate and boarded the plane. I wasn't a big fan of planes, but you gotta do whatcha gotta do. I looked through my phone, Waiting for the plane to take off. I decided to look through my camera roll. So many pictures of me. I don't know why. I'm not very fond of my appearence. Not very tall, about 5'2, Rib length dark brown hair with straight across bangs. I've had those since i became fond of Zooey Deschanel, my one true love.I was very pale and thin. A good amount of tattoo's. Stretched ears. Thin scars from accidents over the years. I was wearing my lucky sweater from when i was about 11,It's pastel purple with with dark gray cresent moons all over it.I'm suprised it still fits,I'm a 21 year old girl but then again, i haven't grown that much in 10 years. I had vibrant green eyes. Not like a neon but like a light mint color.I had thin legs and small feet. My feet were pale, but a few shades darker because i have a tan line from wearing toms for 4 years.
My hair wasn't done in a fancy way. Just brushed with a gray beanie on. While the plane was in air, i decided to listen to some Music. When the first song came on, A smile formed on my light pink lips. It was Decemberism by Man overboard. I mouthed the lyrics as the song played.I looked up the band i was going to photograph
"Of mice & men"
I got the job because a friend of mine was their tour manager and their photographer quit so they needed one so he hired me. I don't mind being their second choice, I am used to it. I looked them up on tumblr. The boys in the band were very handsome,Especially the ginger one. I have to become his friend.
The airplane ride was quick and soon i found myself at the airport. I looked around and saw Andrew,my friend who gave me the job
"Andrew!" I squealed while running to him
"Jillian!" He mimiced me
"How was the flight?" He asked me as we walked to the car
"Good, boring but good." I shrugged
"I feel you. When we get there, the boy should be at sound check, and the merch girl will be setting up so you can get situated on the bus before they come back" He spoke as he drove
I nodded
About 10 minutes later we pulled into a concert venue's parking lot
"Welcome to the Of mice & men bus" He said as he opened the door
The bus was nice, But with a bunch of men, it will probably get very dirty
"This is Tino's, This is Austin's,This is Justin's,This one is mine,This is Gloria's" Andrew said as he pointed out bunks
"This is Alan's" He said while pointing to one that was below one that was up top
"And this is Your bunk" He pointed at one that was below Alan's
"Alan is a light sleeper, sometimes the bus is loud all night and we keep him up. Those nights he locks himself in the back lounge with some ice cream and his blankets and 500 days of summer"
That sparked my immediate interst
"He likes 500 days of summer?" I asked softly
Andrew sighed and led me to the back lounge
In there sat a framed poster of Zooey deschanel and Joseph gordon-levitt from 500 days of summer. But instead of Joseph's handsome face, The ginger boy that i've seen in photographs face was photo shopped onto the poster. My lips formed a small smile
"You can take a shower,a nap. Do what ever you want dude.I have to go check up on the boys, Make sure they're not fucking around." He laughed, humor lacing his voice
"Thanks again Andrew" I said, looking down at my feet
"Hey, we've been friends for 8 years, call me drew"
"Nope" I said popping the p
"Ok well i'm gonna go" He said
"Have fun" I hollered
"Yeah right" He hollered back
I shook my head and grabbed a pair of leggings,underwear,a denim button up shirt and my toiletries and walked into the bathroom. I turned on the shower and hopped in after undressing. I sang to myself as the hot water rolled down me
"Looking for a letter, Trace it in the sand, Nothing was lost on the way, I couldn't stay, holding your hand, Hours on the sidewalk, Staring at the sun"
I turned off the shower and got dressed. When fully content, i did my hair and light make up. I covered my dark circles that laid under my eyes from long nights battling with insomnia.
I grabbed my camera and sat down on one of the couches that was in the front of the bus
"Who are you?"
I looked up to see a girl.She had long red hair, a ton of tattoo's and big stretched ears
"I'm Jillian" I said
"The new photographer?" She asked
"Yes" I said quietly
She nodded and sat down on the couch next to me
"Well, the boys are pretty nice and will like you. you seem nice. I'm not used to having nice girls on the bus" She said quietly
"Oh?"I asked
She nodded
"The only girl thats around her, besides me, Is Alan's bitch girlfriend lydia" She said and laughed
That made me giggle
"She's a bitch?" I asked
"Yeah. When she comes on tour, she kinda just sits there and whine" She said
"I understand" I said
"You know what, I have a feeling we're gonna be great friends" She laughed
Soon the boys came onto the bus and i met all of them
"so where in california are you from?" Austin, the tall one with many tattoo's asked
"Huntington beach" I said happily and smiled
"So am I" Gloria and Alan said at the same time
"Stop that" Gloria said
"You first"
"Ass face"
"Dick butt"
"Guys stop." Austin hollered
"I'm sorry" Gloria muttered
"I'm sorry too" Alan muttered back to her
"Brother and sister. Fuck that" Austin laughed
ok so alan and gloria are siblings. so i wont be as confused
Soon enough, the boys were playing. I was getting perfect shots.Some of my best. Better than some i've taken through my whole 3 year career. Pictures of Alan and Phil shredding. Tino pounding the drums. Austin climbing on stuff. It was all so perfect.
Soon, everyone was back in the bus, drinking and partying
I wasn't much of a party person, so i was sitting on the floor of the bunk area with 500 days of summer playing on my laptop
"You like 500 days of summer?" I heard a voice chirp from behind me. I turned around to see Alan, with a smile plastered onto his face
I nodded quickly
"My favorite"I muttered
"Mine too."Alan replied while sitting next to me
Maybe this was going to be good after all.
