"Josh, what is this?" Charlotte laughed, holding the phone case in her hand. It was plain black with "I prefer the drummer" written in white lettering and a white silhouette of a drum set.

"And this," Josh handed her a tissue-wrapped gift.

She opened it and pulled out a white tshirt with "say no to drugs, say yes to drummers" written in black.

"This is so wonderful," Charlie laughed. "I'm going to wear it."

She changed out her current shirt for the gift from Josh. For the concert, she was wearing a pair of jeans, the new shirt, and a flannel tied around her waist. She had on her black sneakers and put on a long necklace with a red stone at the end.

"You look beautiful, as always," Josh grinned, pulling her in for a kiss. "You should get to the pit now, so you can get close to the stage."

Charlotte was in the front of the pit, reaching to the stage like all of the other fans. When Josh set up his drum on the crowd, he threw a wink her way; he knew where she was because he had spent a good part of House of Gold looking for her. The girl directly behind Charlotte nearly fainted, thinking that the wink was for her. The girl's friends glowed with envy.

A security guard lead Charlotte backstage to the room labeled "Spooky".

She opened the door, greeted with sweaty and shirtless Josh. A grin broke out on her face and she rushed over to him, pulling him into a kiss.

"You were amazing!"

Josh smiled down at her, "Thank you."

"That part where you and those gas mask guys were playing on those marching snares," Charlie breathed. "Drumline guys are hot."

"Are you flirting with me?"

"I most definitely am. You should kiss me."

"Should I?"

"Yes. Because you're shirtless and hot and sweaty and I'm cute and funny and wearing a shirt that says to say yes to drummers, that you gave to me."

"That's a very valid argument," Josh grins, leaning in.
