Matthew
Iam nervous, I know that she will only arrive in half an hour and that freaks me out.
We had a checkup a few days ago and both she and the baby are fine. I still can't believe we're going to be parents. I feel blessed, happy, ecstatic, complete and loved.
"Matt, stop pacing back and forth, you make me nauseous." Faith tells me, shaking her head.
"How do we get her to go on stage?" I ask looking at her. “Angel isn't stupid, she'll know we're up to something. It was pretty damn hard to keep things from her."
"I'll take care of that, you just relax."
“So, we're ready! Everyone wanted to be part of the surprise for Angel," Gabe informs us, going to sit next to Ice, I wonder when they will tell us that they are dating.
"Perfect, now we need her," I say inhaling.
"She is on her way here, don't worry," Craig says, hugging Amy.
“She's here, she's here! God I'm so excited." Kate squeals, making Dean laugh.
The minutes pass and when she arrives with Chris it is as if she lights up the entire backstage. The crowd starts calling us and after a quick kiss we go up on stage one at a time.
As always singing relaxes me and I finally feel more at ease. I see her dancing and singing our songs and I am so happy. Her support, not only as SMD but as my woman has been that extra push to improve.
We take a break and go backstage to drink and hug her, but I can't find her.
The crowd goes crazy shouting her name and I see her there, in the middle of the stage greeting the fans.
We reach her and I hug her, kissing her head. She takes my microphone and I look at Gabe who shrugs and mimics "no clue."
"Good evening guys! Are you having fun?" she asks and the crowd shouts yes.
“That's what I wanted. I'll take you just a few minutes. I know you can wait for the DarkHeaven to sing again but I need to share something with you," she says, winking. “Everyone come here please." she tells us, and we surround her.
"This year has been crazy, and it is thanks to you that I have the honor of delivering the Diamond Disc to the Darkheaven."
I think I have not understood correctly, and I look dazed. "Matthew, are you here with us?" she asks me, and I approach her, who gives me the diamond disc with the name of the band and our first CD.
“Wow, I'm… oh my… I'm speechless. Sorry guys, I'm totally shocked."
And I really am, she didn't tell me anything.
"Congratulations! Although the CD has only been released for three weeks, the sales have been amazing," she says, smiling at me.
"I don't know what to say, I'm still in shock, thanks guys, thank you so much."
“Well, now, I'll take this back. You have a concert to finish," Angel says, kissing me as she takes away the prize. It takes me a couple of minutes to recover from the shock when it is replaced by adrenaline.
We continue with the lineup and if I was nervous before, now I am even more.
The time for the last song arrives and after a sip of water I see Faith calling Angel, whispering something in her ear. Angel shakes her head, and it looks like Faith is begging her, and eventually Angel gives up. When Angel turns her back on Faith, Faith raises her thumbs up.
I approach Angel who explains that Faith has a sore throat and is losing her voice and she has asked her to replace it.Great plan, Faith!
I take her hand, heading to the center of the stage with me.
"Apparently we have a new member in the band for tonight," I announced it to the public and I know they were looking forward to hearing us sing together. After our video on YouTube fans have requested more and we have made them, getting a lot of views.
"I'm not a new entry but just a replacement for tonight, our Faith has a sore throat, and we don't want her to be voiceless, don't we?" The screams of the crowd are impressive.
