CONVICTED: chapter 8

POV-Janelle-“Who is this, Janelle?” Gerard asked. Oh boy, I’m so dead. “This is Shadow, she was my cell mate in prison, I mean jail.” He sighed, and I wasn’t sure if that was a good sign or not. I wasn’t really sure why exactly, but I really didn’t want to screw this thing up with Gerard. I think Bandit is just getting inside my head. Shadow stood, a said: “Okay, well are you going to help me or not?” I smiled, all joking matter intended. “Do I really have a choice?” I laughed to myself, and looked at Gerard, who was looking at me wide eyed and shocked. “What?” I asked, sometimes he is a very confusing man. For several seconds he didn’t say anything. But when he finally did , I could hear the surprise and concern in his voice. “WHAT, your going to help this crazy woman!” See what I mean, I sighed and said very calmly:” Gerard I have no other choice, Shadow has helped me out a lot when we were in jail.” “Fine, but just be careful okay?” “Promise.” I turned back to Shadow, and asked her what she needed help with. She said she just needed a place to stay till she can get a place and a job and such, Gerard said it was no big deal if she stayed with us as we went on tour. I found that very shocking because he just made a big deal over me helping her, boys can be very complicated. We all walked back to the bus and Mikey greeted us as we shuffled into the living area. I introduced Shadow to the guys even though she already knew who they were, because like me she was a huge MCR fan. I was amazing how many bunks this bus had, but Shadows bunk was right above mine.
POV- Bandit- we finally arrived in Dallas, Texas, which was our first stop on tour. That morning of their first concert, I had beaten all the guys, even Shadow and Janelle, to the bathroom, I felt very proud, because the guys take forever to get ready, I think most of the time they just stand there, looking into the mirror at their reflection. But because today I was the first, I took my time. I showered and, got dressed. I was in an unusual happy mood today, so I decided to wear my long black hair in ponytail. It was early June so I wasn’t missing any school, but it was very hot outside. I normally wear long sleeves anyway, but today I decided to wear my Chronicles of Vladimir Tod tank top, my black basketball shorts, and of course my Converse. It seems everyone on this bus only wore Converse, its funny how things work out that way. I put on my eye-liner and mascara, and headed out of the bathroom. Everyone was still sleeping, so made some coffee and sat at the kitchen table. I looked at the clock it read : 8:30am. Wow, I was up earlier than I thought. When the coffee was done, I poured myself a cup, and grabbed my pencil and some paper. I sat back at the table and while drinking my coffee I began to draw. I didn’t know what I was drawling, but I figured ill find out when I’m done. I didn’t even notice Frank walk in the room, till he said, “Good Morning Bandit.” I looked up and him and smiled, “Good Morning Frank.” He gave me a funny look, and then smiled, not a very big smile but a smile. “What?” I asked curiously. He took a sip of coffee. “I like what you’ve done with your wardrobe today.” He said. “oh, yeah I was feeling very happy this morning for some reason. I guess its cause of tonight.” “So, your existed for the concert tonight.” “I guess you could say that, I mean I haven’t seen you all perform before, that is if you don’t count those videos mom use to show me when I was younger and dad wasn’t home and i was crying for him.” Frank laughed to himself, and mumbled under his breathe. Frank went back to the bathroom, and then Janelle came sleepily into the kitchen. She poured herself some juice. “Good Morning Janelle.” “Good Morning Bandit.” After Janelle finished her juice she woke up Shadow. When Shadow came into the living room, she asked my for the morning paper. I handed her the paper and her and Janelle made some calls. Then they told me to tell dad that they were going house hunting and they didn’t know when they would be back, but it would be before the concert.
