If you you think that this man right here is a douche bag, you are sadly mistaken. Craig was the sweetest most humble person I have EVER met (and I’ve met a lot of people.) I was shaking, a total nervous wreck to be meeting my hero in life. I was holding back tears, no matter how stupid it sounds he just means that much to me. Escape The Fate means that much to me. When I finally got up to him he gave me a big hug and that’s when I started crying. He looked at me and I thanked him for everything and told him how amazing the show was. He gave me another hug and I started crying (again) and I told him that his music gives me a reason to wake up and live my life. A reason to not go over the edge. He grabbed me and kissed my forehead twice and pulled me into a huge hug for a bit and I kept saying thank you. He hugged me so tight and it was amazing. He was like “Aw, sweetie. I should be thanking you because I get to do what I love for people like you. I’m glad you decided to keep living. I really am.” so I gave him the letter I wrote him and he was all “Ooooh, I’ll read this later! ;D” which lightened the mood. I took a picture with him and then said my good bye which resulted in yet another hug. (Who can get tired of Craig’s hugs? Not me that’s for fucking sure.)
And then I walked away, broke down and Tori had to hold me. c: Then we found Elle and she had to hold me as well. I mean I was as calm as I could be with him but I just..I couldn’t stop the tears or the words. It was just there.
So now I’m here, reminiscing and wishing I could do it all over again. I may not look the cutest in this picture but right now I’m happy to be alive and things are okay.
