simone was a girls' girl through and through; she collected women as friends like they were pokemon going out of style. there was nothing that she loved more than a good friendship with another woman, and that was exactly what she had with luci. they just.. meshed well together, and even though luci was a few years older than her, that didn't stop them from being such great friends. "i'm so glad you enjoyed the show! it was the first time i performed a few of those songs for a live audience, so it was a little nerve wracking, but i'm glad everyone seemed to love it." the excitement coming off of luciana only fueled her own. she quirked up an eyebrow. "wait - another fight? when was the first one? you know what.. don't even tell me. let's try to focus on the fun and not the drama." she hugged her back firmly, her hand rubbing against her back in an affectionate gesture. "lead the way! i have no idea where anything is - i didn't have time to scope out the festival earlier."

                          feeling  arms  around  her  ,  luciana  looked  back  before  a  huge  smile  pulled  at  the  corners  of  her  lips  at  the  sight  of  simone  .  once  she  was  facing  her  ,  luciana  reached  out  and  grabbed  her  hands  .          ❛      simone  !  you  were  so  good  !  literally  ,  showstopper  stats  !     ❜        and  luciana  𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐘  believed  that  .          (     she  was  insanely  talented  .     )         there  was  no  taking  that  away  from  her  .  not  only  did  she  write  𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐍𝐆  music  but  she  put  on  𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐍𝐆  shows   ,  not  to  mention  her  live  presence  .          ❛     are  you  kidding  ?  can't  wait  !  honestly  ,  i  probably  𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐃  to  keep  you  by  my  side  .  everyone  is  losing  their  shit  out  here  !  next  thing  i  know  ,  another  fight  will  break  out  or  something  .     ❜          she  spoke  before  pulling  the  other  girl  into  a  hug  ,  pulling  away  shortly  after  ,          ❛     it's  so  good  to  see  you  ! we have to go get some celebratory drinks after that amazing set you just had !     ❜

the designer didn't bother trying to stifle the snort that slipped past his lips, matching it with an eye roll that couldn't be described as anything else but fond. no matter how much grief they gave each other or how much they bickered and argued, tristan would always hold a special place in dontaz's heart. "yeah, you better bask in it as much as you can, because it'll be a cold day in hell before it ever happens again. compliments from me are precious and not easily given." he could practically feel the high energy coming off of tristan in waves. it filled him with a little happiness knowing that someone he cared about was finally getting to have their moment, and that he was obviously enjoying it. "ha!" he laughed, the sound loud and heavy. "not at all. listen.. i know that you've been in love with me for the longest time and you're just starting to accept your feelings, but you and me.. it could never work. i could never be with a man that uses coupons."

simone couldn't help but laugh at sasha's quick recovery, shaking her head in amusement. "i'm glad you're looking forward to them! i am too. there's so many different artists performing tonight.. it's going to be like hitting shuffle on my spotify playlist - you never know what genre you're going to get." she affectionately rubbed her hand against the hand that squeezed her arm. "hopefully you won't be disappointed by what i bring to the stage."
Tumblr media
"no, not really," sasha even shook her head in response to simone's question though she was also quick to realize that made her seem uninterested which was far from the case. "i'm excited for all of the different sets!" she explained, "oh you're telling me. i feel like i'm melting," she laughed, "i can't wait to see it," she reached out to give simone's arm an excited squeeze.

the smile on dontaz's face widened considerably at their answer, watching as abel took the drink from his hand. "you and me both." he cocked his head to the side, a playful glint in his eyes. "now why would i ruin the surprise like that? don't you trust me?" he asked, before letting out a laugh. "i'm just fuckin' with you. it's just a little bit of tequila. it's a festival after all, right? had to bring out the good stuff."
Tumblr media
"well, you don't have to tell me twice," abel laughed as they eagerly accepted the frozen drink from dontaz. "i'm a sucker for all things frozen," they added. though, it wasn't entirely true. "a secret ingredient, you say?" they arched an eyebrow, "do i get any hints? or do i have to guess what it is?" they took a sip of the drink.

simone had to admit that having friends that never failed to hype her up was one of the biggest reasons why she had so much confidence in herself and her music. they always sung her good praises, even the ones who were more brutally honest than others. even if her music wasn't their tastes, they still gave her positive feedback and, when it was needed, constructive criticism. "please, now you're just trying to flatter me." the words were playfully, dripping in fake modesty as she waved the other off. "i'm so glad that you enjoyed my set though! i actually haven't performed in a bit, so i was a little rusty." and by 'a bit', she meant in a month or two. which, in the grand scheme of things wasn't a long time. "you know what? you're absolutely right. i should be celebrating - and you're going to celebrate with me."

"hm? oh, i'm fine! don't worry about me. a little push definitely isn't enough to take me out." he politely waved off their concerns with a wave of his hand. "i hope i didn't hurt you or anything. i know i'm not exactly small." with his taller frame, it wouldn't be a surprise to him if he had accidentally caused her harm. "or your shoes." he glanced down at their shoes, frowning a bit. "they're cute. way too cute to be ruined because of some asshole at a festival."

dontaz was no stranger to relationships. at his age, he had been involved with plenty of people both romantically and sexually, and while a good amount of those relationships were fly-by flings, a few of them were serious and lasted a solid amount of time. but like most things, both good and bad, they came to an end. although his dynamic with luciana never really ended. they had stripped away the relationship aspect of it and left behind the sexual aspects of it; which dontaz didn't mind. however it seemed to be something that plagued luci. as much as she tried to seem indifferent to his presence, dontaz couldn't help but bask in the fact that he still had the ability to make her flustered, even after all this time. "seems as if us running into each other is fate.. or you're just hard pressed to seek me out whenever you know i'm around." a grin tugged at the corners of his mouth. "did you miss me that much?"

"you're welcome! i always give props when they're deserved, you know? and you definitely deserve them. honestly, i don't think bass players get enough credit from people who aren't musically inclined. it's such an important aspect of music.. half the music the world loves would be shit without bass players." she nodded her head enthusiastically, her hands clapping together. "yes, i loved it. i could tell you were feeling yourself out there - as you should. i hope it's not the last time you decide to let loose."

the differences in personality between the two of them were more than enough for outside eyes to judge their friendship. people who knew both tristan and nigel were oftentimes confused and shocked by how close the two of them were. even though nigel wasn't the most affectionate person, verbally or physically, he held his friendship with tristan in very high regard. even though he had his questionable habits and behavior from time to time, nigel would still go to bat for him. just as much as he would call tristan out on his sometimes shitty behavior. "oh damn.. i haven't heard that song in years. are you guys going to put a spin on it, or keep it close to the original?" he snorted under his breath. "remember who you're talking to.. who else would i tell?" not only did nigel not have that many friends who he would go gabbing off to, but he was good at keeping secrets.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
                      there  was  something  calm  about  being  around  nigel  .  a  calm  that  tristan  didn't  have  a  lot  of  when  it  came  to  the  people  in  his  life  or  the  𝐒𝐈𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒  he  put  himself  in  because  . . .  he  wasn't  a  calm  person  .  always  flinging  himself  into  the  fire  at  any  given  moment  .  but  nigel  was  a  breath  of  fresh  air  . . .  or  maybe  they  were  just  a  breath  of  reality  .  a  snap  back  to  how  things  𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐘  were  instead  of  this  very  𝐍𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐄  outlook  that  tristan  could  have  on  the  world  at  times  .  a  smile  pulled  at  the  males  lips  as  he  looked  over  at  nigel  .  he  was  excited  about  performing  .  this  was  one  of  the  first  big  and  more  𝐌𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌  type  events  or  gigs  his  band  was  able  to  get  .           ❛     we'll  probably  play  our  most  popular  songs  and  then  a  cover  of  untouched  by  the  veronicas  . . .  alessandro  is  𝐎𝐁𝐒𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐃  with  that  song  or  something  .     ❜          he  shook  his  head  before  laughing  .          ❛     but  you're  not  allowed  to  let  anyone  in  on  the  insider  details  .  if  you  do  ,  you're  gonna  have  to  live  with  the  fact  that  you  ,  as  one  of  my  closest  friends  ,  have  betrayed  me  .     ❜          the  brunette  joked  .

nigel offered the other an apologetic, half smile. "my bad. no, i should've been paying more attention. i'm not a fan of people who cut in lines.. they're the scum of the earth. i'd hate to be one of them." his words might have been dramatic, and his tone might have been a little flat, but it was obvious that he was joking. "you can go ahead - one more person in front of me won't make much of a difference."
Tumblr media
as usual, roman was distracted, this time by the passing festival goers and their brightly colored outfits, the food in their hands, pretty much everything. he'd completely forgotten that he was in line for food himself until nigel said something. "oh shit," he blinked, "yeah i was but you're good man," he smiled, "i should probably pay more attention."

"i'm using my powers for good by giving you one of these water bottles, right?" nigel asked, a soft chuckle escaping their lips as they shook their head. "and i wouldn't say i'm lucky... just blessed," he joked, lips quirking up into a smile. he unscrewed the cap on the bottle of water when she took the second one, bringing it up to his lips and downing a good portion of it. "what's there to do around this thing? ...that doesn't involve a lot of people." finding something to do at a festival that didn't involve hoards of people would be quite the task, but nigel was up for it if she was.

eyes low from the weed and alcohol that coursed through her system, she was surprised when a familiar face approached her. tristan was the last person she expected to willingly interact with her, especially with the amount of tension that lingered between them whenever they were in the same vicinity with one another. she bit back a sarcastic response to the praise he gave her. "thanks.. so were you." simone couldn't lie. tristan was talented and knew how to put on a good show; she had to give him his props where they were due. she hesitated at the question, her lips parting to respond, before she cut herself off. did she really want to accept his offer? her immediate thought was no, but the substances flowing through her bloodstream lessened her inhibitions and made her a little bit more susceptible to being swayed. "you know what? yeah.. okay, i'll take that drink. do you remember what i like?" she asked, quirking up an eyebrow in jest, testing to see if he still remembered her drink of choice - anything with vodka in it.

"you're asking me?" simone couldn't help but be surprised, albeit a little amused, by the question. as far as any of the people she associated with knew, she avoided tristan like the plague. he was the last person she wanted to keep tabs on - or at leas that was what she consistently kept trying to tell herself. "um.." she took a second to think about it. "not up close. i saw him disappear into a room backstage like an hour ago, but that was the last time i saw him. why?"

"watch where the fuck you're going!" dontaz snapped at the person who had not so graciously bumped into him, forcing him to step into someone else's personal space - and right onto their foot. he turned to the person he had unknowingly assaulted, flashing them a smile. "sorry about that. some people," he cut his gaze sharply over to the back of the person who had caused their collision, before looking back at them, "don't know how to be aware of their surroundings."
