CC's Point-Of-View

I paced outside the basement door, taking deep breaths. I'm nervous. Very nervous. What if I freeze? Will they like me? Will they hate me? I hope they don't... They're my favourite band. I've always loved them. Especially Ashley, for some reason.
“Next!”
I jumped, walking in and sitting at the drum set, staring at the floor.
“Name?” Ashley. I could tell it's his voice even if we were in a crowded room with everyone chatting.
I looked up, my eyes meeting his. “Christian Mora, but I go by Christian Coma, or CC.”
He dropped the clipboard he was holding, making a clatter as it hit the desk. “C-Christian...?”
I nodded, my eyebrow raising slightly. “Yes, Ashley...?” He shivered as his name left my tongue and I smirked. This should be fun... He shivers just when I say his name...
“So, CC, what are you going to play?” Andy asked.
“It may be a little out-dated, but for as long as I can remember, it has always been stuck in my head.” I started drumming, closing my eyes and smiling at the familiar music hitting my ears. Unconsciously, my eyes opened back up, meeting Ashleys. Why does it feel like this song is for him? Why does it--
“Okay, you can stop.” Ashley hissed.
My hands froze in mid-air, the drumstick twirling in the air. As it came down, I grabbed it, looking at Andy. “Did I do something wrong...?”
Andy shook his head. “No, that was wonderful. We'll give you a call later.”
I nodded, getting up and walking out. He hissed at me... Actually hissed. Does he... Does he hate me...? My head hung low as I walked away from the house, something wet hitting the top of my head. I looked up, seeing grey clouds forming, little water droplets falling to the ground. Great. Today must not be my day. First, my favourite person in the world turns out to hate me, and then it starts raining on the walk home.
“CC!” I turned around, seeing Andy on the porch. “Come back inside!” I shrugged, running inside, shaking my head to get my hair less wet.
“You're like a dog.” Ashley smirked. “You shake like one, and you come crawling back.”
“Ash--”
“Andy, I got this.” I smiled politely. “Look here, Purdy. I don't know what your problem is with me. For god sakes, we just met!” As that left my lips, it felt... wrong. I shook my head. “Look. I don't know what you have against me, but no matter what you say, I will never hate you. Well, any of you. To be honest, I'm a fan. I've always loved you guys. I could never hate any of you, no matter how much you guys hate me. I was looking forward to today, to meeting all of you, especially Ashley. He's my favourite. Although, if he has a problem with me, I'll just leave, and you guys can find a different drummer.”
As I turned around, someone grabbed my arm, electricity shooting throughout my entire body. “No, stay.” I turned to Ashley, raising a questionable eyebrow. “Don't leave. My mind has been fucking with me recently and I'm just confused.”
“How am I related to that though...?” Silence surrounded the room as he failed to respond, his eyes closing. “Ashley.... Are you alright?”
“Yeah...” He slowly opened his eyes. Those eyes... They look so familiar... I tilted my head to the side, my eyes never leaving his. “I'm fine.”
“Guys... You're not alone in this room.”
I jumped back, averting my eyes from Ashleys. “Wait, why did you call me back in here, Andy?”
“One, it's raining, and I don't want you to get sick. Two, we want you to be in the band.”
“Is we including Ashley?”
“Yes. We all want you in the band.”
“Alright.”
“We should all hang out today, get to know each other.”
“Sleepover?”
“Hell yeah!”
I laughed, looking at everyone. My favourite band is now my friends... Well, I hope they are...
“Who is sleeping where for when we watch a movie?”
“I'll take the couch.” Ashley and I said in unison. We looked at each other, tilting our heads.
“You can share.”
Ashley sat on the couch, legs folded. I sat next to him, bringing my legs up next to me, laying my head on his lap so I was lying down. His fingers tangled into my hair, gently running them through.
“What are we watching?” I asked, as the guys just stared at us.
“Titanic.” Andy answered.
My mind went blank as he said the name, a sense of fear filling me. “No!”
“What? Why not?”
“I've always been scared of that movie.”
“Why? It's not a horror...”
“Just... please...” I turned around, hiding my face in Asheys stomach.
“It's alright, CC... I'm right here...” He whispered. He wrapped his arm around my waist, trying to prove a point.
“Alright... Just never let go...”
He froze underneath me. As the movie played, I slipped into unconsciousness, Ashleys words being the last thing I hear.
“I'm sorry...”

I know it's short, but I can't think of anything. Sorry if it's a disappointment to many!
