RAVEN'S POV
My knees were shaky along with my hands as I walked backstage. As soon as all of us were off, I jumped up and down like mad and ran at Josh who welcomed me into his arms. I muffled my screams of joy in his shoulder as he hugged my tightly, tears streaming down my cheeks. I didn't care what I'd look like and I didn't care what the other bands thought. I was so overjoyed and incredibly happy, nothing could me bring me down. I was too high for that.
"I can't believe it! We just performed at the Vans Warped Tour! Can you believe it?!" I said as I sobbed into Josh's thin white t-shirt and making it wet with my tears.
"I know! I know!" I could tell he was trying his best to be calm, but the evidence of excitement in his voice was unmissable.
"That was crazzzzyyyy!!!!" screamed Ross as he turned our friendly hug into a friendly group hug.
"We did it guys! We're doing it! And we get to do it again and again and again and again!" grinned Jeremy as he joined the hug.
Last to join was Katrina "Ahhhhhhhh!!!!! I'm so proud of us!!!!"
We all group hugged for a while and then watched My Chemical Romance performing.
"We could be perfect one last night, and die like star crossed lovers when we fight and we could settle this affair, if you would shed your yellow take my hand and then we'll solve the mystery of laceration gravity, this riddle of revenge, please understand it has to be this way!" sang Gerard. I couldn't help but hear every single little flaw in his voice. All these imperfections made his voice......... well..... perfect. I hated to say it, I really did, but there was something so captivating about the lyrics and his voice singing them. The crowd went crazy for them and My Chemical Romance really knew how to interract with their audience, we could learn a thing or two from them.

"Oh maaaaan...... he is soooooo hooooooottt" drawled Kitty.
"Kat" I said "Remember what I told you on the plane?"
"Yes, I know, I have a boyfriend, but he won't know about me having an innocent little perve...."
"Whatever" I sighed.
"Come on, you know he is hot"
"Too drunk, not my type" I dismissed the issue casually, pretending to check for dirt underneath my fingernails.
"You're so shallow" hissed Kat.
"I'm not shallow, I'm just trying to carry out the promise I made to my dad"
"About not spreading your legs for any emo band member thingy?"
"Yeah. And shut-up about it, would you?" I mumbled.
"Alright, alright" laughed Kat "But you like him and I know it"
"Kitt-ey!" I whined.
"I'll be back, just gonna go get a snag off of the barbie" she laughed in a mock Australian accent.
"Alright mate, be back soon"

It was well and truely dark outside by now and My Chemical Romance had just finished. I stood up to greet and congratulate them all.
"You guys nailed it!" I smiled as I wrapped my arms around Rays neck and pulled him in for a hug. I looked over at Kitty as I hugged him and she had an astonished look on her face. I looked solidly back at her. I then went to hug Mikey, Frank and even Bob who decided to be cheeky and slide is hand a little lower down my back than the odd friendly hug, but I didn't go to hug Gerard. I just shook his hand.
"No hug for me?" He smirked.
"Why? Do you want one?" I growled.
"Maybe I might"
"Then just say so"
"I'm saying so, you just don't want to give me one"
I decided to hug him for the sake of my poor ears having to listen to his whinging. I wrapped my arms around his neck too, like I did with Ray and I could smell alchohol and tobacco on him. But for some reason, I really didn't want to let go. My hug with him lasted a little longer than the usual friendly hug would last for, but there was something, and I didn't want to let go. I felt his hands slide softly down to the small of my back and I took a step back and looked him in the eyes. They were actually...... really..... pretty....!! I wasn't supposed to feel like this but I could tell he was feeling something too. No, shut-up Raven, what the fuck man?! You don't want Gerard! You're not into drunk assholes, remember?
"This probably looks a bit awkward" I said, looking away from him.
"Probably" he frowned, looking away from my own eyes too "Ciggy?"
"I don't smoke" I said.
"Pussy" he smirked as he cracked open another can and downed it.
I knew it was disguisting, how much he smelt of alchohol and tobbaco along with caffine, how much he drank, how greasy his black hair was and the stage make-up added, but I couldn't help but feel almost attracted to this sort of rebellion in him.
"Am not!" I retorted, placing my hands on hips in a sassy manor so as to make a statement.
"Smoke with me then" he said, fumbling around with his pockets to find his pack of cigarettes.
I glared at him, a sick feeling coursing through my stomach at the thought of putting that thing in my mouth.
"No," I said firmly.
Gerard just rolled his eyes and folded his arms across his chest, turning away from me.
"Still a pussy"
"Fuck off Gerard" I growled.
"What's going on here?" asked a concerned looking Ross "Lay off her alright, or you'll have me to answer to"
Gerard just half smiled at Ross in a deceptive way before lighting up a cigarette and walking forwards towards the drummer. Ross took a step back as Gerard got uncomfortably close, taking a big puff of his cigarette in front of Ross' face.
"Stay away from me" Gerard spat at him before sharply turning his head to look at me "and you too"
