Shena is a punk rocker

"Shena, wake up! Wake up and look out the window!"The voice sounded firmiliar, but I was too tired to care. "Come on Shena, if you don't look now, you're going to miss it!""Ok, fine" I rolled my eyes open to see a large valley full of wildflowers, every one of them were beautiful, the sky was the bluest I've ever seen it, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. A clearly beautiful sight to anyone, but I wanted my friend, Natalie to feel bad about waking me up,"You've got to be kidding you woke me up for this?" I said, not able to look away from the window,"I was having such a good dream, too.""Sorry, I just thought you'd like to see the flowers, you can go back to sleep now if you want." she said"Too late now!" I said, standing up in our moving bus."Shena! Sit down! We are not at a stop yet!" My youth pastor yelled from the driver seat.I reluctantly sat down, and Natalie had a little smirk on her face."Shut up" I said in a joking way. I staired out the window again, waiting for us to finally reach... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ...our destination was Pheonix. I was so excited to be back in the state that started it all. I stood up in our moving bus and ran to the back to jump on top of my pile of sleeping friends."Wake up Natalie! Wake up and look out the window!" I said in a mocking voice in her ear."Ah, Shena, get off of me" she mumbled"Come on Natalie, wake up now or you're going to miss it!" I said in the same sing-song voice. This is a ritual we had on every trip, the first person to wake up gets to run up and say this little phrase to the person asleep and if they don't wake up, the other person gets to do something mean to them."Ok, Natalie Marie, you asked for it" I grabbed the bottle of icey cold water Nick was drinking and poured it all over Natalie. By now all of the other people asleep near Natalie had moved, they were quite used to this rutine. Natalie screamed. Jumping up from her now ice cold seat, she tackled me to the ground and hit me in my arms until I stopped laughing."Thanks, Shena. I needed that." She grabbed some clothes and walked into the bathroom.I just laughed as I walked over to Nick,"Thank you for the water, dear." I said with a polite smile.Nick was Natalie's boyfriend and our guitarist. He was about 6 foot tall, and had short brown hair. They're enguaged, which is making a lot of headlines right now.Natalie has the coolest look ever. She has long almost black hair and always has a unique style in dressing. She likes studs, animal print, and dark clothes. Today, she was wearing her black AFI shrit and red pants. She was wearing black and red Converse and everything matched well. She also had eyeliner and mascuerra on. She was never insanely tall, but not too short, she stands at about 5'6 and I hate her body style because she looks good in everything she wears. I stuck my tounge out at her as I walked into.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~ .....the bathroom in this truckstop was very nice. It had like 8 stalls, it didn't smell bad, and it was pink. I looked in the mirror and put on a fresh coat of eyeliner. I brushed out my hair, and examined every aspect of myself. I'm not fat, but I'm not a twig, either, I'd say about normal size. My hair is medium length, it used to be very short, but now it's about at my shoulders. I'm not drop dead gorgeous, but I make it a point to turn heads, and I'm usually the one that the hot guy spends the night talking to.Natalie and I walked out of the bathroom, follwed by Kate in a sad atempt to win back our friendship compleately. You see, Kate dated my brother, but first, she lied and back-stabed Natalie and I, and ever since then I couldn't care less about her, but she just tries so hard to try and get our attention. It's annoying, but I try to act like I care for the sake of my brother's feelings. Every once in a while, she acts like good old times, and I like her when she's like that, but then, she screws up, and ends up saying or doing something that completely pisses me off, but other than that, she's alright.Dave and Jon came out of the bathroom and started walking with us. Dave and Natalie have a little something going on, and Jon(my brother) and Kate are going out. I'm the only one who isn't dating someone from my church, because Jon and Dave are the only two guys who are always at youth with us. Plus, the other guys in our youth group are discusting and sorry to say, major losers. Every once in a while a nice, hot guy(or strapping young lad, if you will) will come along, and he and I will hit it off, but then, he either moves away, or just stops coming and most of my past boyfriends from other places already had their own churches. It's kind of depressing, but I don't let it get me down, I kind of like being the only one in the youth group without a boyfriend, it makes me the boss of everything, because eveyone always wants to listen to me.We walked out of the truck stop after buying drinks and snacks for the ride and got.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... back in the bus alone. I sat on one of the chairs toward the front. Then Jade walked on. "They're going to be a while in there. The cook screwed up the orders and Natalie's trying to fix everything." he said. "Oh, well that sucks.. so, where's Nick and Justin?" I replyed quietly at first. "Um, around..some fans saw Justin, and Nick's with Natalie." he sat down across from me. "Oh.." I said, quietly. I got out my phone and pretended like I was texting someone. I've always had a thing for Jade. My feelings for him only get better each moment. I feel like I could spend the rest of my life with him, easily. When we first met, I wanted to date him more than I wanted him to play guitar for us. He's the best looking person I've ever met. He's about 6 foot. Has long black hair and dark blue eyes. He has kind of pale skin and a great personality. He's the only person who makes me feel nervous, and even though we've been band mates for almost 2 years, I have never even brought it up with him. Out of all of the guys, he and I get along best, he and I can talk for hours and not even realize it, and I look forward to every minute alone with him.. We've never touched each other before and when we're alone, I have to try with all of my being to not tell him how I feel."H-hey, you excited?" I asked after about 5 minutes of silence. "Uh, yeah.." he said looking up from his phone. "hmm, me too.." I locked eyes with him but glanced away really quickly. We both pretended to look at our phones. I would look at him, then look away when he glanced at me and he would look away when I glanced at him. We locked eyes again. I smiled and quickly looked away again. "What am I so afraid of?" I thought to myself, "Say something to him!" He got up and went into the bathroom. "Blew it.. he probably doesn't think that way, anyway."I closed my phone, and sat in the booth in the very back. I looked out the window. "S-shena?" Jade said from the middle of the bus. "Yeah. I'm back here." silence. I put my iPod on. He walked in and stood at the door. He looked out the window, and closed the door. He took out one headphone and whispered in my ear "I want you to hear this." You can believe the iPod went off. "Well.. Shena, I don't know why this is so hard to say.. I like you. I mean, I have some feelings for you, and I-I don't know if you feel the same.." He stood up "And, I-I, well- I..." He looked me in the eye, leaned in and kissed me. I didn't resist. This was like a dream come true. I leaned in and said "You don't know how long I've been waiting. I feel the same way." I smiled at him big at first, then I felt nervous again. "You're special to me." he whispered. He held me in his arms and we sat there for a moment. My heart started to beat faster. He lightly kissed my neck and I knew where this was going to go. I whispered, "I want to feel your heart beating with mine.." I caressed the side of his face and brushed his hair out of his eyes, "I love you." He kissed me, "I love you, too.." He took my hand "How long have you known?" "Honestly?" I said quietly, "Since the first time I saw you," I put my other hand on his chest, "I knew that we would be together someday." He looked down at my hand, then up at me and smiled."Me too.." He layed me down on the seat gently. He caressed my face,"Really..." he kissed me,"I love you." He took control and I could tell he wanted it, too, but just then, the door flew open and Natalie and Nick walked in. Nick looked at the now shirtless Jade, then down at me, laying underneath,"Oh.. wow!" He said laughing as he walked away. Natalie stood there wide-eyed. "So, umm.. yeah.. then." She turned around a stepped out, leaving the door open. I sat up and looked around, fixing my hair. He put on his shirt. He looked down. I looked down. "H-hey, let's talk about this, do you want to?" I said. The bus started moving. "Yeah." We smiled at each other. We both sat down. Natalie and Nick walked in. "Ah, that's what I like to see.. fully clothed people." Natalie said sitting next to me. "So are you guys together now or what?" Nick said sitting down. "Umm, well.. Acctually.." Jade said looking at me, then at Nick, "I want to be.." He looked over at Natalie,"Acctually, if you guys don't mind, I'd really like to talk to Shena for a minute." "Yeah, sure.." they left. "Shena.. I knew since the first moment we met that I wanted to spend my life with you. You're so beautiful and I just can't be with anyone else.." I looked at him with wide eyes. This seemed so unreal,"and, well, do you.. will you.. will you be with me forever? Be my-" "Yes!" "-wife?.." His face lit up as he jumped to his feet "You will?!" I stood to my feet and took both of his hands, "Yes! I feel the same way! I just didn't think you did because you're always dating someone new and we're in a band together, and well, I just didn't think you were inter-" He kissed me, "Of course I'm interested. I always have been. It kills me to see you with other guys." I laughed and hugged him,"Oh!" "I love you!" "I love you!"We both yelled it over and over again as we kissed. Nick came back into the room. The bus stopped. "So, umm, what's going on?" Nick asked. "Oh, we have great news." I said holding Jade,"We- Oh, wait, why did we stop?" Natalie walked in,"Oh, we had to, they wanted to check the trailer because they can't remember if they did a good job of tieing in... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... the drums were heard really loudly on the radio, it must have been "As I Lay Dying" or someone like that. We had just arrived in the parking garage of the Hotel we were staying at, I was so exicted as I looked out the window."This is going to be SO fun! I can't wait to see our room, I hope it's nice!" I said loudly."It's going to be, don't worry about it." Natalie said.We got inside and our youth pastor checked us into the hotel. We got on the elevator and went up to our floor. We walked out and into..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... The hallway went on for a long time. I carried my bass inside, and was followed by a stage hand with my amp. Stage hands helped us with everything.We walked outside where the line was already formed. We love the fans. I turned the knob, and... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... We stepped outside. We were finally at the conference where live bands would be, and great speakers would talk about so many interesting things. We took our seats and awaited for it to finally start. I heard a great band would be playing.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... first, we had to go inside. We watched the fans pile in. I was so excited, it was like the first time all over again, and I warmed up my voice. Finally, we waited for the time to come. Finally, everything was ready, it was time to go.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... On stage, the band entered. The screams filled the room as I jumped to my feet. The band had the biggest smiles on their faces. Finally, the show began, I.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .... Played like it was our last show...
