Fame | Shawn Mendes

Chapter 77; Ideas & More Ideas

I was in my dressing room and in just eight minutes I was supposed to get on stage. I was now wearing a cropped sweater that matched with the shoes I had already on for meet & greet.

Other then that Ellie & Lena just did little touch ups before I met up with my band, Evan and I lot of other people, including my dancers.

I connected my phone to a wireless box and let 'Drag Me Down' by One Direction play. Everyone started singing loudly to loosen up a little and Evan told me we were going live in a few seconds.

For the intro we had decided to take me idea and film my way to the stage and just before I'm about to go on it'll cut off and a little video is being played with cool effects like really fast or some things rewind and all that cool stuff. It'll show parts where I meet fans or have an interview and also parts from rehearsals the past two weeks.

I loved the video and at the end there is going to be a countdown that had multiply pictures of me and my band showing up five fingers, then four and so on. In the middle of the huge screen are going to be huge numbers that count down from 5 and with each number passing there is going to be a noise. Like a heartbeat.

Anyways, I was so damn nervous.

The little red light on the camera showed me that we were live and fans could now see what's happening on the screen. I heard loud screams, making me grin as I jumped around singing One Direction.

A technician fixed our in ears and everything before we were good to go.

We made our way to the stage and I quickly took a sip out of my bottle and high fived or hugged a few people on the way like Ellie & Lena for example.

"I'm so nervous," I whispered to Theo who wrapped his arm around my shoulder and messed with my hair a little.

"Me too," he admitted.

I waved at the camera and the screams got louder. We were almost there and I said good luck to my band and my dancers before hugging Evan who handed me my mic and quickly making my way under the stage where I crouched down and blew a kiss to the camera before the live part ended and the video was playing now.

I did a last warm up and rubbed my hands together, nervously.

Let's do this.

-

First show was amazing. It went really well and I loved every second of it.

I was now laying in my hotel bed just staring up at the ceiling and thinking about what a crazy life I was living.

My phone rung and I had an incoming call from Ethan.

"Wassup Ethan," I said and put him on speaker so I didn't have to hold the phone to my ear.

"I have a question. It's important," he said, sounding nervous.

"Shoot."

"I want to propose to your mother. I'm asking for you blessing, Mila."

I was quiet for a bit. Ethan wants to marry my mom? He's going to be my mother's husband and the father to my siblings.

"Mila?"

"Yea, right sorry. Uhm, of course," I said with a smile on my face.

"Really? That means so much to me Mila. Thank you," he said and I could clearly hear that he was happy about it.

"When and how are you planning on doing it?" I asked since I really wanted to be there when my mother gets engaged.

"I'm not sure yet. I want to make it special. That woman deserves the world," he said with such adoration in his voice and couldn't have said anything other then yes when he asked for my blessing.

"I might have an idea," I said suddenly and started to fill him in on what I had in my mind for this special occasion.

-

"No! This is my bunk!" I exclaimed as Evan was moving his stuff into the bunk that I had already claimed.

"Well, there's no sign that says it is," he shrugged with a small smirk on his face.

I glared at him and tried moving his stuff but he ended up throwing me over his shoulder while tickling me to death.

"I'm gonna tell Ethan," I pouted and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Oh no, please don't. Imagine what he will do to me," he joked and I continued pouting before getting into another bunk and glaring at him while dangling my feet from the top bunk.

He laughed and got into the bunk that was once mine. We all had our lights turned off and so I did as well. I heard someone walking around so I took a glance and saw Adam entering the bathroom.

How lucky I am to have the bunk across the toilet.

I went on my phone and checked my Instagram and Twitter, reading comments about my concert. I also saw some videos and I have to say that I really nailed all my dance moves that I tried so hard not to forget.

However, I miss touring with Shawn and his crew.

They've grown on me and it was hard leaving them behind but it was Shawn's crew and now I had my own. My own touring crew.

Theo, Kyle, Adam, Nick, Evan, Erik (my photographer) and I were sharing the bus. Erik was new to the whole touring thing and he only knew Evan so he was still trying to get used to everyone.

On the other bus we obviously had Ellie, Lena and all the dancers so if I ever need to get rid of the boys I could always jump on the other bus and hang with the others.

Ethan and my mom are actually flying out to come to the London shows. That was also why Ethan had called because he wanted to know when and where they should come.

There was also a surprise but I can't talk about it right now.

Touring the world is so much fun but the part where I miss my family and friends was such a burden. I can actually handle it quiet good but sometimes everything is just crashing down and you wish you had someone there with you that isn't, at the moment.

Since I'm just at the beginning of this tour I'm so hyped and excited that I don't think much about anything negative at the moment. Which was good.

I texted a few people before I went to bed and fell asleep rather quickly.

I got woken up by Kyle who told me that we had arrived in Germany. It was eight in the morning and so I got up to get myself ready. We had a day off today which was good so we had some time to explore the city a little.

I went downstairs to the kitchen area and made myself a bowl with cereal and milk. I sat down with Theo, Adam & Kyle and started eating while scrolling through my Twitter feed.

"Mhh, I know what we can do today," I said all of a sudden.

"What do you have in mind?" Theo asked, looking kinda like he already knew it was crazy. But I don't think it is. I've thought about it for months and I've always wanted a one someday so might as well be today.

"I want to get a tattoo," I grinned.
