pt.2 I forgot what it belonged too so yeah
You wake up, not hearing your radio or cellphone, but the feeling of hot air on your neck. it was Jade, who was asleep. He looks so hto when he's sleeping XP. You get off his lap and strech, causing your shirt to ride up. You pull it down, making sure nobody saw. You walk over to the side of Hunters bed, you see him sleeping. He almost looks dead. You stare at him when you hear a noise behind you. You turn around, scared, to find.....ADAM SNORING!!!!!! You try so hard to burst out laughing. Eventually, you ran out of the room into the hall and laughed at nothing. You walk in to see Jade awake. You're still not trying to laugh. Jade walks over to you. Jade: (whispering) what's so funny? You: Adam's snoring. You then hear the same noise again and Jade's now the one not trying to burst with laughter. You then see Adam wake up. You two get serious faces on. Hunter then wakes up, making a moaning sound. Hunter: oooo my arms. Ow. davey walks in, drinking something but you're too lazy to look. Davey's then followed by the doctor. Doc: okay Hunter, you're free to go. So you guys leave, Hunters arms both in casts. Jade: you gotta get ready. You: why? where are we going? Jade: on tour...you're playing the bass, 'memeber? You then suddenley remember. You: yeah...i gtta get some stuff first, k? Jade: alright. Jade is now driving (thank God....Davey, i luv ya to death but you just need to drive better lol) and you're sitting next to him. You've never performed before. Your nervous and excited. More xcited then nervous, though. You pull in to the parking lot of the Kentuky Star hotel. You look at the sign. The same star is rising and falling. You love the motel. You love the creaky stairs and the tacky furniture. it just seems like........home. You get out of the car, running through the lobby, up the creaky steps to your room, where you see everything in it's place, like you left it. You then grab a duffel. You shove clothes in the duffel. Along with some makeup. You put in your laptop and grab your bag. You look at your room. Bare but messy. You: well, until next time. You then close the door behind you and proceed to the car.....Alright, so we left off where Jade brought you downstairs to see something...but what? ~!QUIZ STARTS!~ You follow Jade downstairs and into the living room to see.....ASH?!!? Your heart begins to rapidly begin to beat faster and you don't know wether to be sad or scared or anything. You: Ash....what are you-? Ash: I need to give you something...It was Brandons. You then see the guys leave the room because they can clearly see this is a "family moment". Ash hands you a folder. You take it and look at it. On it, it has written in sharpie BRANDON'S KEEP OUT...BEWARE...all that stuff and skulls to actually "scare you". Not caring, you open it up. Something falls out. You pick it up. It was a picture. it was a picture of you and Brandon when you went up to Maine for the day. You remember how happy he was. You hand it to Ash. She looks at it. Ash: you should keep it...we have others. You take it and place it down on a table. You then sit down on the couch. You look through. It was all these stories and drawings. Stories of how shitty his days were....how awesome they were....how boring that were...all that stuff. You then flip to a page where you see about a dozen porrly drawn winged demons...the bat-thing for the Art Of Drowing era. You remember trying to teach brandon how to draw it. You then see a very well-drawn one next to a paragraph. It read "MY AUNTIE ERIN IS THE BEST! SHE TAUGHT ME HOW TO DRAW THIS THING CALLED THE WINGED DEMON. I LOVE HER VERY MUCH FOR THAT. I MIGHT GIVE HER A DOLLAR. -BRANDON" You cover your mouth with your hand. You look at when he dated it. July 12. Last week. You then close the notebook and take the picture. Ash then hands you a frame. You put the picture inside the frame. Ash: i think i better get going. You: umm...yeah. thanks for this. Ash nods and gets up, closing the door behind her. You then look at the picture. You see your reflection in it. A single tear escaped from your eyes. You then hear Jade come in out of nowhere. He sits down next to you and takes a look at the picture. Jade: is that him? You: yup. Your voice is kinda scrathcy because you're on the edge of crying hysterically. You then stand up and walk upstairs. Assuming you and Jade are now sharing a room, you put it on a nightstand. You look at it one last time...really closely. His smile was so wide that it practically fit on his face. That's Brandon for ya. You have your arms around each other and you're sitting on a bench. You then feel someone touch your shoulder. You look up. it's Jade. You can see the sorrow in his eyes and feel the pity from his touch. You then look at the time. 7:30. You then get up and go in the kitchen. You grab a snapple. Sip and swallow. Sip and swallow. You force yourself to drink even though you're not hungry nor thirsty. You go in the living room and sit on the couch next to Davey. You see what he's watching. It's the TV guide channel to see what's on. You see Hard Rock Live is on. This week it was supposed to have The Darkness playing. You then snatch the remote and change it to channel whatever and you see them performing their song "Friday Night". Davey: ugh..MAKE IT STOP!!! You laugh and turn up the volume. Davey then runs away. You lower the volume and strech your legs on the couch, taking up all the room. You hear Adam laughing from the kitchen. You smile to yourself and get yourself comfy.
Interview prt.3 I love it thats why I"m posting it
Interviewer: Um, you guys still get the chance to catch Rancid in the Bay Area every now and then? I mean, excluding the tour you did with them a couple years ago.Jade: Um, Rancid hasnt played in the Bay Area for, the last time I can remember them playing in the Bay Area was Warped Tour I guess. Theyve been working on a new record right now and, every time we go to L.A., we go to L.A. a lot, Tim and Lars and all of us hang out, and Rob from the Transplants, and we hang out with them a lot. We dont get to see them very much live but uh, we get to, you know, hang out all the time, so thats great.Interviewer: Okay, seeing as this band, has had ten years in the making to where it is today, do you have any advice for high school, college kids who think they have something good, or any advice for what they should do to hopefully become what you are today?Jade: Id say just, play any show, dont, I think a lot of bands today dont want to pay their dues, they want to go right from being a new band to being on MTV, and being a huge band, its like, it builds character to be out there, and do years of touring, darn it, shoot, I mean shit, (laughs). Its, you need to experience the hardship, like this band has experienced a lot of hardship and paid a lot of dues, its made us appreciate where were at a lot more, so just, you know, take it slow. Practice. Dont write crappy songs. Write good songs. Dont be a crappy band. Dont catch SARS like all of us.Interviewer: Um, okay so what can fans expect from AFI within the next year, can you guys see yourselves going back into the studio, or are you gonna, after this US tour ends, are you going to go abroad to tour for the album, what do you have in store for the next year?Jade: Um, after this we do east coast, and then we go to Europe, and then we do Warped Tour and then we go to Canada, and then we go do festivals in Japan, back to Europe, and then another headlining tour in the fall. And after that I dont know. And were gonna be on Conan. And maybe Saturday Night Live. But I probably just jinxed the Saturday Night Live thing, because were waiting to hear back from them. So well probably get a call in about five minutes saying, no, youre not doing it. So were not going to be on Saturday Night Live. (laughs)Interviewer: Yet. Eventually, Im sure probably. Okay well Im sure a lot of people ask you about the name of the band, you know, changing it from A Fire Inside, shortening it to AFI, can you give us any inside information about the band name?Jade: It was actually AFI first, um, when the band was started, I wasnt in the band at the time, but we all grew up in the same town and hung out, and back then, we grew up listening to punk in the 80s and there were a lot of acronym bands. You know, like DRI and RKL and AOD and bands like this, so it was kind of like, that was like the thing, so being fifteen-year-old kids, of course they were like, oh, were gonna have an acronym band. And then eventually it became A Fire Inside, after several years.Interviewer: Speaking of the olden days, what did you do before you joined AFI, in those five years you were in high school together and before you joined the band? Jade: I went to school. I was at Berkely, and I graduated, and soon after I graduated they asked me to join the band. It worked out pretty well, I didnt have to actually exist in the real world at all, I went right from college to being in a band so, it was pretty nice.Interviewer: Whats your degree in?Jade: Social theory. Completely useless. So its a very good thing Im in a band right now.Interviewer: Um what about side projects, do any of you have anything going on like producing or playing in other bands?Jade: Id actually like to produce, I never really thought about it. But um, I have executive producer credit on our new album, so that would be cool. Id probably ruin somebodys record but um, I make, I spend all my spare time making electronic music, and Im really into it, and I have a lot of material, so if I was to do something Id probably put out an electonic album. So well see what happens.Interviewer: You do that, youd better work it to college radio, itll do well, Im sure. And also, youd have to come up with a kickass DJ name.Jade: I had one! What was it? I had a good one, I dont know why, we were just talking about it, but I cant remember. Ill be DJ SARS. Ill probably be dead of SARS by then, so I guess it doesnt matter. Posthumous album.Interviewer: Tupac put out like six albums after he died, so you could have a good career out of that. (laughs). So um, how about some closing comments, words of advice, words of wisdom, anything.Jade: Oh words of wisdom, I have no wisdom to impart. You guys are in college anyway, youre probably smarter than me so, go about your business. Go to hell!Interviewer: Um, thank you very much for doing the show with us, we really appreciate it, and we hope you have a good show tonight.
I love A.F.I

story
So we left off where you were getting up to see who was at the door...alrightie then.~QUIZ STARTS!~ You open the door to see.....Davey and Adam. You: uhhh hi? Davey: where's jade? You notice there's a little bit of concern and nervousness in his voice. You: he's here, why? Adam: Hunter got hurt....he's in the hospital. You hear charging footsteps behind you. Jade: what happened? Davey and Adam begin to run down the old, creaky stairs. You run after them and jade follows behind. You four get in Davey's car and Davey pulls out of the Kentucky Star hotel parking lot. Jade: what the fuck happened? Adam: Hunter was being a jackass and ran across the street and got hit by a car. Your heart sinks and your face flushes. You feel like you're gonna cry. Davey: we're hoping he isn't hurt........or dead. You cover your mouth with your hands and gasp. Jade notices. Jade: you okay? You: i sould be asking you that.....Jade: he'll be fine. He puts his arm around you and starts to rub your back gentley. Davey then starts driving so fast you think you're all gonna crash and blow up. You guys arrive 5 streets and 2 tickets later to St. Lawrence Hospital, where Hunter is being taken care of. You 4 burst through the front door and run up to the lady at the front desk. You: (pant pant) we're here to see Hunter Burgan. Lady: okay...let me see where he is. She pulls out the keyboard and clicks all the keys like she's trying to race typing with the girl next to her. Lady: yes, yes....Hunter's in very bad condition. You heart sinks once again, this time making a single tear roll down your face. Jade then starts to rub your back again, trying to get you to calm down. Lady: he's been in the emergency room for 3 hours now....i'll let you know when you can see him. Davey: ok, thanks. You go sit down in one of the taky, pink chairs in the waiting room. It made you think of the ones in the Kentucky Star lobby. You bury your head in your hands and begin to cry. You cry for Hunter. You cry to Jade, Davey, and Adam, you cry for your parents, who also died in the hospital. You then see Jade sit next to you. You hug him, hoping he'll give you strength to face your weakness. Sorrow. You feel Jade begin to lightly stroke your face. It feels relaxing, taking some of that sorrow off your shoulders. You see Davey and Adam standing, talking to one another, looking not too happy either. You then hear the lady at the font desk call Jade. You hear her say you can see Hunter now. You follow everyone down a long hallway with the same salmon pink-colored doors. You then see Adam turn into one of the doors. You look in. You see Hunter lying in a bed, tubes up his nose and both of his arms in casts. Fuck. He won't be able to play bass. You then turn and cry into Jades chest. Jade puts his arms around you was you weap from the painful sight. Davey rubs your back, also. You then hear a ruffling of sheets behind you. You turn around. You see Hutner open one eye. Your heart leaps with joy. Your ego now begins to sing to you. ALLELUIA! ALLELUIA! You see Adam walk over. Hunter: (whispering) what happened? Adam: i told you to always look both ways before crossing the street. Hunter shows a weak smile and you walk over and stand next to Adam. Hunter looks at you, both eyes fully open now. Hunter: Hey Erin.....long time no see, huh? You smile. Your too happy for words. Your presence is joined by a doctor with a big nose and thick-rimmed glasses. Typical doctor. You all take notice and look at him, waiting for him to say something. Doc: okay, Hunter, you seem to be in very bad condition. Jade: tell us something we don't know. You jab him in the stomach so he'd shut up. Doc: anyway, both of your arms are broken in 7 places. Davey's eyes go wide, Adam raises his eyebrows, Jades mouth, along with yours, drops in shock. Adam: the who'll play the bass. You all stand there wuiet. Jade the looks at you. You raise an eyebrow. You: what? do i have something on my face? Jade: you know how to play bass, don't you? You eyes grow wide. You do. You: you want me to.........no. i couldn't. Davey: you have to. Hunter: i'll teach you everything, as soon as i get outta this damn hospital. You smile at his comment. You: fine, i'll do it. Everyones faces light up. You: but if you get tomato's chucked at you because i'm not Hunter, don't cry to me. Jade looks at you like this (-_-), which makes you laugh. You look at the clock on the wall. 11:30. Man, you're tired. You see Jade sitting in a chair and he motions you to come over. You walk over and sit in his lap and put your head on his shoulder. You can feel and smell his breath. Minty ;). You look up at him. Jade: you tired? You: no...i'm exshaused. Jade smiles and kisses you on the forehead, sending shivers up your spine. You rest your head on his shoulder and drift off....soon falling asleep.
Chapter 7 is the one I finished this is the ending of Chapter 8
You see Jade come down the stairs. You sit up so he can sit next to you...Like he does. You can feel Jade starring at you so you look at him...and sure enough, he's looking at you. ~watch, someone's gonna come running through here screaming like a mad-man~ you think ~ and if that actually happens....that will be so awesome~. Sure enough, Hunter's running and screaming like a prick while being chased by Davey and Adam. You get pissed because you can't hear the TV. You then turn up the volume so loud it almost made everyone down the STREET go deaf. Everyone then shuts up and you turn it down. You: THANK you. You then get pissed because it just ended and you don't know who'll be on next week. You: oh sun ova bitch! But you then see the band LOSTPROHPETS' logo. You're guessing they'll be there next week. You: oh...nevermind. That makes Jade giggle. You end up watching TV until 11:30 with Jade. You get tired and decide to go to bed. You then stand up. You: *yawn* i'm going to bed, ok Jade? Jade: alright. You then give him a quick kiss and go upstairs. You then walk into your room to see....THE GUYS GOING THROUGH YOUR STUFF!!!!! You get so pissed. But it's just so comical you HAVE to watch. You hide in the doorway. You see Hunter pick up one of your thongs (yes, thongs). Luckily, it's one you've only wore a couple times. Hunter: now that's gotta hurt. Davey: you should try it on. You face the drops of any expression. There's NO way anyone's wearing your undies besides you. You then stand in the doorway. You see a guitar case (with no guitar in it) near where you're standing. You knock it over, making a noise. They then turn around and see you. They're more mortified than a deer caught in headlights. Hunter: how long have you been standing there? He then hides you thong behind his back. You: long enough. What the hell are you doing? They were silent. You: that's what i thought. You walk over to them. You: goodnight. You push them out and shut the door. You look and see they went through EVERYTHING. They went through your bag, your clothes, they even discovered your tampons. Ever since that inncident on the tour bus, you carry twice as more. You shove it all in the bag and throw it on the floor. You then pull off your shirt and your pants. You then slip on some plaid pajama pants and are too careless to put on a shirt. You then climb into bed and turn off the light next to you. You then rest your head on the pillow. It was nice and comfy. You felt at home again. You then suddenly hear the door open. You sit up. You see no one. You then see something fly in and hit you in the head. It was too dark to see what it was. You then hear uncontrollable giggling. You grab whatever it was and throw it out in the hall. You scream FUCK OFF and slam the door. You then climb into bed and try to get comfy again. You then hear silence. You begin to doze off when you hear the door open again. This time, something really hard was thrown at you. You see it's a book on....SAFE SEX?!? You: *screaming really loudly* SUN OVA BITCH! You then throw the book out in the hall and slam the door again. You then climb into bed, again. You then hear someone at the door. You grab a bat that was on the floor and sneak near the door. The door opens and you beat whoever it was to death. You jump on top of them and see it's...JADE?!? Oops. Jade: WHAT THE FUCK???? You: oh shit....i thought you were someone else. Jade: well...i'm not. Now i'm awake. You: i'm sry. I'm gonna kick their asses tomorrow. You then note what position you guys are in. You get a little uncomfortable and stand up. You then have to go to the bathroom. You ecuse yourself and go into the bathroom. You do whatever and you walk out and see a little square on the floor. You think it's a sticky note. Can't be. But you realize it was the thing that was thrown at you. You go into the bathroom to look at it. the light reveals....A CONDOM!!! Dun dun dunnnnnn. You then remember the safe sex book, also. Those bastards. You then hatch an idea. You run into your room and see Jade taking off his shirt. XP. You: Jade....Jade: yeah? You: those bastards chucked these at me...You hand hi the book and condom. Jade: assholes. You: fuck.....but i've got an idea. You tell jade and he likes it. You then head out with Jade to....
