Do you guys ever think about how when the band’s performances get posted online how like popular they would become like fan base wise rapidly? Edge of Great is already posted but then someone probably would have posted Finally Free as well and that performance blows up too. The boys are so astonished that they can become so popular so fast now since in their day it took a bit more to get like that.
There’s comments on the videos, it’s mostly complimentary about all of them, their fanbase has their own little nicknames for the boys being just drummer, guitarist and bassist. The boys ask Julie why people keep talking about boats when it comes to their Edge of Great performance.
“There’s not a ship anywhere in there.”
“Maybe it was the colors of decorations it looks like ship colors?”
“Why is everyone into talking about ships on a video about our performance?”
Julie is just like sweating that people keep pointing out the piano bench moment from Luke and her, she just distracts the boys to look at a new comment anytime they ask about it 💀
They ask her why people keep saying they are thirsty in the comments instead of just going to get a drink on their own time without bringing it up. It’s a lot of them asking why people are saying certain comments that make no sense to them but we obviously understand 💀
Do you think that some of their fans would notice Alex’s like rainbow pride bracelet and then be like “did anyone else see the pride bracelet on the drummer 🥺” and there’s just comments talking about that and how happy it makes them and then Alex would see those comments and feel so many ways
Bc I sUrE DoN’t think about that stuff more than an unreasonable amount of time 💀
warnings: my writing. it's short. i don't know, just enjoy this memory of 2020
Summary: Music lessons when you don't really need them
Luke and you were nothing more than friends of convenience, if that could even be called friendship.
Your parents were friends, he was terrible at…well all subjects and you had a crush on him so you pretended you needed to learn to play the guitar when you were already good at it. You were pretty sure he wasn’t interested, but he needed a lot of help with his grades so even though he seemed to dislike you, you helped him because you loved his parents and even with your hopes on the ground, admiring him was a nice thing to do when the person is hot.
— Damn, I can’t think about this today, y/n. Let’s skip to the music part.—
Luke. We have a test tomorrow and you don’t know how to do the rule of three.
— I know. But I just…can’t think with you here.— What? Am I the problem? You narrowed your eyes, offended. — It’s…you keep…staring at me like you’re going to say I’m doing it wrong.
He said, then his cheeks turned as red as a tomato. He noticed.
— Seriously? I didn’t even notice, sorry.Luke then closes his eyes and sighs.
— Why don’t we do this. You practice what I taught you last week while I finish this. Then we can do new things.
At that you got up and left his sight. Widening your eyes and sighing softly as you mentally slapped yourself for staring more than a normal person would.Without realizing it, your fingers began to strum the guitar absentmindedly while you thought about how obvious you were being and didn’t even notice that it caught Luke’s attention. You played well. No beginner knew how to strum a guitar so easily.
— You’re good.
His voice startled you and you jumped on the couch with wide eyes.
— What? No, you taught me this.
— I didn’t teach you.
— You did.
You insisted stubbornly.
— And you’re not a stubborn little thing.
He murmured, getting up and going over to you. He threw the notebook with finished exercises next to you and kneeling on the floor, Luke placed his hands with icy ring-filled fingers on your exposed hot thighs where the skirt didn’t reach and spread them, allowing him to get closer to you.
— Play for me.
He ordered and you swallowed hard.
— Luke…
His hand then went up your thigh to the hem of your extremely short skirt.
— Play.
So you did, you played a simple song and with trembling hands you stopped and looked at him who was staring at you shamelessly.
— You lied.
— I didn’t lie.
You lied in vain.
— If you wanted me around so much, you could have just told me, princess.
He said taking the guitar out of your hands and placing it leaning on the armchair next to him.
— You needed help, I had to invent something so you wouldn’t feel bad.
You provoked and his hands squeezed your thighs hard but not enough to hurt you but just enough to turn you on.
— You’re a little liar, aren’t you? I see how you look at me. How you come with these ridiculous little skirts to get my attention. I see how you keep biting your lip while I teach you to play and you pretend not to understand anything.You then fell silent, your cheeks red with shame he laughed, caressing your face and going down to your lips.
— Luke…
You sighed when you felt him kissing your neck with hot kisses.
— You didn’t deny it because you know it’s all true.— Uh-huh, you’re right.
You murmured until he stopped and joined his lips with yours.Without warning he switched your positions and sat in your place, putting you on top of him while his hands ran from your waist to your butt.
— Good thing you pretended. I’ve wanted this for a long time.
He said breathlessly between kisses and made you smile.
— You wanted to?
— Like hell.
— Good. Me too.
— Oh, I know, little one.He mocked and you moved away hitting his chest lightly.
— Shut up.
— Make me.
— Hey, Luke. Y/n needs something…
Luke’s mother’s voice entered the room so you jumped off his lap while his mother opened the door and watched you both with narrowed eyes.
— You don’t need condoms, do you?
She asked and your body sank with shame into the corner where you had thrown yourself.
— Mom. We’re just…learning chords, we’re fine.
— Uh-huh.She said and left without closing the door.
— Next time we’ll do it at my place, we have the studio downstairs.
— Next time I see you, you won’t be teaching me boring subjects, princess.

Everyone was ecstatic. People were jumping, yelling, screaming the lyrics of Sunset Curve's songs. Their concerts were always the one to look forward to, and that's rich coming from you, seeing that you have been in almost all of them.
The fact that your boyfriend was their lead singer and guitarist was just a bonus. Their songs never failed to make someone dance like nobody's watching.
Luke's eye was locked on your as he sings his solo. the stupid smile never wiping off his face.
This interaction made girls close to you scream, thinking he was looking at them, when in fact he was looking at you and you only.
The venue was not that big but the people in the audience were loud enough to think otherwise. The stage was close to the crowd so Luke could walk towards you. eye contact never breaking, he was lost in your eyes and you were lost in his.
He honestly almost forgot the chords he was about to play and you almost forgot you were surrounded by roughly 30 girls.
He starts to walk slowly until he's in front of you. you had to bite your lip to stop you from bursting out laughing by the faces the girls made. their faces fell when he stood right in front of you.
but Reggie and Alex smiled at the utter joy radiating from you guys. From being best friends who completely denied their feelings for each other to not being afraid to show people that you guys were totally head over heels for each other.
When his solo ended, he didn't move an inch from where he stood. You guys continued to stare at each other lovingly, but when Alex beat his drum in a pattern you and Luke knew so much you snapped back to reality.
It was not the first time this happened. Luke has constantly forgotten about performing when you're there. and he wasn't ashamed of it in the tiniest bit.
you broke the stare and looked over luke's shoulder and saw Reggie and Alex giving you the look.
you rolled your eyes playfully and shook luke's shoulder lightly making him snap out of his daze.
"you're still in a show babe." you said to him, slightly yelling over the loud music.
his grin turned upwards even more if that was possible and moved to his original spot. but not before kissing your cheek.
The girl's eyes widen and look at you guys in surprise, jealousy and disgust. The disgust part was directed to you and you only.
but you didn't care. you didn't give two shits about them. your boy was up there doing the thing he loves most and that's all that matters.
Luckily for Luke the song was almost over, and when the lights started to dim, Alex was softly hitting the cymbal indicating the song's end.
"we're sunset curve! tell your friends!`` Reggie said to his mic before they bowed down and ran off stage. more like luke, ran off stage. Reggie, Alex and Bobby just shook their heads and followed after luke.
being faster than luke, you arrived first at the lounge area where they would hang out after a performance.
you were on the couch waiting for your best friends and boyfriend.
the door flung open, revealing a sweaty, grinning luke patterson. his eyes are practically sparkling at the sight of his girlfriend.
"babe!" Luke exclaimed, feeling more than happy to see you.
you stood up smiling at the joyful boy as he jogged towards you lifting you up and spinning you around making you laugh.
The action made you feel like the happiest girl on earth.
he puts you down and leaned his head down, softly connecting his lips with yours.
kissing luke is probably one of your favourite things to do. no matter how much you do it, the butterflies never go away or slow down.
"y/n, you need to stop coming to our shows dude." Bobby said, interrupting the sweet moment.
you and luke's head snapped towards bobby, "what why?" you asked, baffled, kind of offended at how his tone sounded.
"yeah why?" Luke sneered, as he wrapped a protective arm around your waist.
Bobby looked at you both in disbelief. "you're clearly distracting him!" he exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air.
a laugh made its way out of you, as you said, "oohhh."
Reggie and Alex snickered behind Bobby at Luke's face. He looked like he was about to smash a car.
"Relax, Bobby, we figured that out already." Alex assured as he pats Bobby's back.
Reggie sat down at the sofa beside Alex and said, "yeah, if Luke was too distracted, Alex would play an extra beat. it goes like this 'ting tung tung bap' " he said, trying to imitate the sound which made you laugh.
Alex turned to look at Reggie, "exactly." Alex said, clearly impressed at how well he imitated his beat.
"Yeah, it will take a lot to get rid of me." you said, smirking.
"yeah, over my dead body" luke hissed, he's basically shaking from annoyance.
"Chill, I was joking." Bobby panicked, recognising the hostility in Luke's voice. it was the same voice he used on guys who were hitting on you, and he's not even flirting!
you laughed and intertwined your fingers with luke's that was gripping your waist. He instantly calmed at your touch, the familiar feeling made his insides fuzzy.
he looked down at you, to see you're looking up smiling at him, eyes filled with adoration. the boy smiled beforeleaning down, "a pretty damn gorgeous distraction." he muttered before sealing your lips together.
Usually, when I hyperfixate on someting, I have some really random ideas of art projects to make based on it. Most of the time, I don’t really have the motivation or the patience to make them, so I just don’t. But, sometimes, I do. And, most of the time, it ends up so cursed. (But, honestly, this one is not that bad.)
Anyway, at the time I made that fanart, I had a big hyperfixation on that show. And a saw something somewhere (probably tiktok, but I’m not sure) that said that Luke, Alex and Reggie had the same vibe as Alvin, Simon and Theodore. And so I made a drawing of them as the chipmunks.
