After growing up leading a life of crime, Jason never thought he’d make it this far. He clutched his drumsticks in his hands as he waited backstage with the other band members. They were about to perform at their biggest show yet.

Jason was an average drummer. He didn’t practice super hard or cared too much. He just thought it was cool. And Jason wanted to be cool, so why not play the drums? But playing alone turned out to get very boring very fast. So when his friend from the streets asked Jason to be in a band with him, he jumped at the offer.

This was his chance to be a big shot. He met the bassist, and he met you- whom he took particular interest in.

You guys played together for months, building up to get to this moment. Interviews, post-jam session burgers, sitting on rooftops and listening to music together. Now, Jason glances at you backstage, and you look like you’re freaking out. He raises an eyebrow.

“Hey, what’s with that look?” Jason asks with an awkward smile.
