Note: I listed this under AU because I'm kind of inventing my own timeline, rearranging the chronological order of actual events in order to suit my plot. Bear with me!

Note: If any of you are familiar with the band Incubus (whose lead singer, Brandon Boyd, is the inspiration for, you guessed it, Brandon), you'll notice that I yanked one of their song titles for the concert scene in this chapter. However, the band is not at all meant to be portraying themselves in this story. Whereas in reality, Incubus is a fairly popular band, in the story, they are relatively unheard of. Just wanted to clear up any potential confusion.
