I gripped onto the mic as I stared out at the audience, our audience. Cass was standing next to me, breathless, like I was. We had just finished our last number, for our last show. I could feel the sweat forming from my tight grip on the mic.
                          
 
                          
“Thank you, Toronto!” Cass screamed when she realized I wasn’t ready to speak. “It’s been quite a ride, huh? I mean, we would have never expected for our first tour to turn out like this.” She paused, letting the crowd shout back answers and just yelling. She glanced at me, and I shook my head. She sighed and turned back to the crowd, continuing without my input. “When we first heard about touring some states in the US, we were so excited. Who knew that since then, we traveled to Australia, made some stops in England and Asia, and even a few in South America and Brazil? Then, we were requested to do some more shows in the US. And now, we’re finishing our tour in Canada!”
                          
 
                          
All of our fans screamed and I could briefly make out what some of them were saying.
                          
 
                          
“We love you!”
                          
 
                          
“Collision’s bae!”
                          

                          
"Encore!"
                          
 
                          
I tightened my grip on my mic as I stepped forward, next to Cass. She looked at me, noticing my presence beside her. She gave a look of assurance, grabbing my hand in hers and nodded at me.
                          
 
                          
“Along this journey, we have met so many amazing fans, like yourselves, and we can’t thank you guys enough. Because without you guys supporting us, we won’t be where we are. We wouldn’t be here with you guys.” I paused, feeling myself getting worked up. “We have also made some very good friends, best friends actually.”
                          
 
                          
I looked at Sammy, Nate, and Michael, whom I invited to come on the last stops of the tour with us, in case I needed him for some help, which I did. I motioned for them to come up on stage again.
                          
 
                          
“They have been there for me through thick and thin. I know that sounds cheesy,” I laughed, and everyone else laughed along with me. “But, it’s true. Without them, I wouldn’t have the courage to do what I’m about to do. Someone should get this on camera and put it on Youtube. I assure you that it’ll be worth it and worth sharing.”
