Seven Hours Later...





Maria Smith






It was around seven o'clock Maria and Alex had gone back to Alex's place to get ready for the concert, Maria was in the bathroom finishing putting on the last of her makeup, she was really excited for the concert tonight as Maria finished up. She opened the door as she spotted her clothes that she had chosen to wear for the evening Maria reached for her leather jacket and started putting on the torn pair of jeans. Maria enjoyed her moment at the memorial with Alex as she looked down at her girlfriend, she was really happy that they had met one another, at first when she came out her parents weren't that accepting about it but they eventually warmed up to her lifestyle and they had gotten along again.

Maria opened her phone again seeing that it was a text from Kristina again, there was apparently some sort of sickness going around in her school, and that classes were canceled for tomorrow. She sent a quick reply back to her sister as Maria headed down the stairs, it was certainly a weird little home but Alex was happy with it, and so was Maria she started to think about moving up to DC just to be closer to Alex.

Seeing Alex Maria quickly snuck up on her and wrapped her arms around Alex's waist she gave her a smile as she backed up for a moment. "So are you ready to get going?" Maria asked.




Riley Ridgeway






Riley sat in the back of her tour bus, it was certainly an exciting night like always something that she always looked forward to singing in front of her fans. She sat in the small bed across from the TV as there was yet another story of these bite victims being sent to the hospital and that there were some rioters going on at other parts of the country. Apparently there was more police brutality against people, there was even a leaked video of an officer shooting a man that looked like he was covered in blood and shambling slowly towards him.

There was about twenty minutes left before her show was about ready to start and already the venue for the concert was filled with people, Riley decided to head out and sign somethings for the guests. As Riley came out she headed towards one of the small makeshift fences seeing people holding pictures and albums of hers to sign. She made her way towards them and started signing and shaking some hands along with some pictures with the fans.
