Cassie:Why are you telling me this?

Sebastian:When I think about him, I find myself staring at the stars. I don’t know what the fuck I’m looking at, and I can’t name them like he could, but it makes him seem closer

Sebastian:Makes me feel like he’s still here even if he’s not

Sebastian:Reminds me of before things fell apart

Cassie:Thank you

Cassie:I needed that

Sebastian:You’re welcome, babe

Cassie:Good night, Sebastian

Sebastian:Night, Cassie

Sebastian:Did you miss the show?

Cassie:No, I’m here

Sebastian:Where?

Cassie:Trying to find my way backstage, watched from the crowd tonight

Sebastian:Why? You’re with the crew, you can watch from the side of the stage if you want, better view

Cassie:Agree to disagree

Sebastian:?

Cassie:Backstage is nice, but sometimes you need a little screaming, sweating, and grinding

Sebastian:You got me there ;) so where are you now?

Cassie:With Quinn heading to a door… no idea, we’re lost

Sebastian:What letter is above your head?

Cassie:G

Sebastian:Go to J, that’s closer, I’ll meet you there

Cassie:Only if I survive the sea of boobs. You better have Adrian get you extra sharpies, looks like a busy night for you ;)

Sebastian:Very funny

Cassie:Calling it like I see it, rock god

Sebastian:See you in a few, strange girl

Cassie::P

Sebastian

I’mcrawlingoutofmy skin with anticipation while waiting for Cassie after the show. Halfway through my set I realized all I could think about was her bubble gum pink hair. I kept looking to the side of the stage, trying to catch a glimpse of her, but she wasn’t there. Apparently, I should have been searching the audience.
