So my name is Spencer Carlin, I'm a 22-year-old designer for a music studio, I'm 5'5'' with long blonde hair and blue eyes. I live on a coastline of the pacific in Ventura California. I moved out when I was 18 to go to school in Santa Barbra, I finished college in 3 years with my degree in design and landed this job. I now live in my dream loft and wake up every morning to the ocean. I get sent out almost weekly to do a meet and great with a new band or sit in on a photo shoot that I will be editing. I have some pretty awesome friends who are constantly at my place because as they say, "its nicer of all of ours so shut it". I don't mind though, I'm never a fan of always being alone. Last but not least, relationships, I'm single, date around sometimes but never really found anyone that gave me those butterflies or made my heart race. So here's my story:
"SPENCER!! Hurry up, we're gunna be late and you know the boss man is going to be there!"
"Hold on Adien I'm finishing my make-up, Ryan said this band was going to be the hottest thing since The Beatles, plus he said they are all extremely hot!"
"Now are you looking at guys or girls today, you really need to make your mind up, I mean have you seen me, you would look amazing with your arm latched on mine"
"Aiden your hot and you know that but your like my brother, that would be so weird, I mean do you not remember high school, been there tried that. I seem to remember that horrible date ending in me puking in ur Nissan"
"True, but you are one confusing lady Spence, you had it all with Alex, I mean he was about to get on one knee and propose and you dump him, you not only dumped mister rich studio director but you left him for Brit, the surfer chick who didn't even have a job!"
"Aiden Alex was nice but I just wasn't in love with him, I want that irresistible, heart racing, butterflies kind of love."
"But do you want that with a guy or a girl?"
Aiden was always questioning me on my sexuality; he never understood how I could leave a guy who was rich and head over heels for a girl who spent her days on the beach. O and Aiden by the way is my best friend, we've known each other for about 10 years, he transferred into my 7th grade class from New Jersey. We instantly became best friends and have been inseparable since. Now we work together at the same studio, Aiden is the head of the booking, he goes to concerts all the time to check out up and coming bands and bring them in. So not only do I do all of our companies advertising campaigns for the bands and the photo shoots but 90 of the time I have a word on who is a thumbs up and a thumbs down because Aiden always drags me to the concerts.
Tonight was different though, Aiden and I were both excited because the owner of the studio found this band and instantly signed them, which he has never done before. So tonight Adien and I are supposed to go with him to do a meet and greet with the band at a local club and hear them play a set.
Aiden and I are now walking to the club, its only like a couple blocks away so we decided to walk especially since Kris aka big boss man loves to by us rounds all night, he says it just makes us more comfortable.
"but Spence she's so hot, and wants me so bad, is it that wrong?"
"Aiden we work with her, do you know how awkward it would be when you guys have sex and then have to come in and see each other at work!"
"True, but you have to admit Spence, you'd totally do her"
"Nope, not my type at all"
"Ok Spence, here's one I haven't asked, What IS your type?"
"Well first of all my type is totally not the fake bimbos with too much makeup, if you can wear no makeup and still take me breath away, it's the best. But my type would be a beautiful dark haired girl who I can look at and get lost in. I guess I just want a girl who knows what makes me weak in the knees."
"Well good luck with that Spence, I wish that girl existed but I can't seem to find any"
"Exactly why I'm single, I'm sick of wasting time with people I feel nothing for."
"Yeah I agree, but don't tell anyone I said that because I got a rep to keep up"
With that Aiden and I were walking into the club where you instantly hear the live music just beginning.
"Aiden is that the band we're hear for, I thought they went on at 8, its only 730"
"That's what I thought but maybe thats not them"
As Aiden and I walked into the club the music rushed over me and made a tingle go down my spin, her voice was perfect and sang the deep meaningful words like she felt every one of them. I couldn't see her through the crowd but knew that the person behind that voice was going to be just as beautiful. Just as Aiden was pushing through the crowd in front me , he stopped, as soon as I stopped I looked up and our eyes locked, it was an instant feeling of floating. I had never felt this before just looking into someone's eyes. She continued to sing...our eyes never left one another.
--Feels like I have always known you
And I swear I dreamt about you
All those endless nights I was alone
It's like I've spent forever searching
Now I know that it was worth it
With you it feels like I am finally home
Falling head over heels
Thought I knew how it feels
But with you it's like the first day of my life
Cuz you leave me speechless
When you talk to me
You leave me breathless
The way you look at me
You manage to disarm me
My soul is shining through
Can't help but surrender
My everything to you
I thought I could resist you
I thought that I was strong
Somehow you were different from what I've known
I didn't see you coming
You took me by surprise and
You stole my heart before I could say no
Falling head over heels
Thought I knew how it feels
But with you it's like the first day of my life
You leave me speechless
When you talk to me
You leave me breathless
The way you look at me
You manage to disarm me
My soul is shining through
I can't help but surrender
Oh no
My everything to you
You leave me speechless
(the way you smile, the way you touch my face)
You leave me breathless
(it's something that you do I can't explain)
I run a million miles just to hear you say my name
Baby
You leave me speechless
You leave me breathless
The way you look at me
You manage to disarm me
My soul is shining through
I can't help but surrender
My everything to you
My eyes have never left hers, and I hadn't noticed Aiden was starring at me.
"Spence, Spencer--Hellllloooo?" Aiden said waving his hand in front of my face making me break contact with the girl on the stage.
"Hey, what, sorry, whats wrong?"
"You tell me, do you know her or something?"
"who?" I say wanting to avoid the fact that the singer and I had locked eyes for a good 4 minutes.
"Ashley, thats ashley, the girl from the badn we're here to sign"
"Wow, Ryan was right"
"Right about what?" Aiden says confused
"She is gorgeous"
"Uh Oh, I see Spencer eyeing the girl we're here to sign"
"No, I mean, I dunno shes gorgeous you can't deny that."
"well anyway, there's Ryan" Aiden says pointing to the private couch and table in the corner, he was sitting there with his assistant on the phone and siping a mixed drink
Aiden and I made our way over to the table as the next song started, it was a change in tempo from the last one and I instantly recognized it-- It was my favorite song...and she sang it perfectly.
We're both looking for something
We've been afraid to find
It's easier to be broken
It's easier to hide
Looking at you, holding my breath
For once in my life I'm scared to death
I'm taking a chance letting you inside
I'm feeling alive all over again
As deep as the sky, under my skin
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
Maybe I'm wrong, I'm feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love to feel for the first time
The world that I see inside you
Waiting to come to life
Waking me up to dreaming
Reality in your eyes
By the middle of the song we had sat down and I had my eyes glued to the stage, watching her tap her foot perfectly to the beat as she sang. I could hear Aiden adn Ryan talking but I wasn't sure what they were talking about.
Looking at you, holding my breath
For once in my life I'm scared to death
I'm taking a chance letting you inside
I'm feeling alive all over again
As deep as the sky, under my skin
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
Maybe I'm wrong, I'm feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love to feel for the first time
When I finally peeled my eyes off the stage I turned and listened to the conversation the guys were having
"-wow I can't believe you two are dating now"
As the last sentance was said my stomach sank, is Ryan dating this girl?
"yeah she finally agreed, believe me it took awhile, I had to promise I'd bring my signing manager to have a listen tonight to see what our studio could do for her"
"I thought you said spence and I were supposed to come becasue we were for sure signing her, I mean shes awesome no doubt, but was this supposed to be an audition?"
"Kinda, I wanted to make her nervous tonight to see if she could perform under stress, she passed"
"So Ryan, you and her are dating?" I asked
"Yep"
I instantly grew quiet and again looked towards teh stage to again be in an eye lock with the girl that Ryan was with. It kind of made me sick to hear this, I know how Ryan is, he uses women.
We're crashing
Into the unknown
We're lost in this
But it feels like home
I'm feeling alive all over again
As deep as the scar that's under my skin
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
Maybe I'm wrong, I'm feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
Like being in love to feel for the first time
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
Like being in love to feel for the first time
As the song ended my drink had come and I had already drank it all, Aiden and Ryan contiued conversation about work and I just listened to the next two songs which seemed to just get better than teh first ones. Finally two drinks later I was engaged in conversation with Aiden about the band and what I thought about her...
"Aiden there is just something about her, I mean shes amazing, no doubt in my mind about signing her.
"I could tell, you couldn't take your eyes off the stage"
"Here she comes" I say watching her hips sway from side to side
As she approached teh table Ryan, Aiden and I stood
"Theres my girl" Ryan says as he grabs her and kisses her.
I watched as he kissed her and she jsut seemed kind of annoyed with it.
"Ashley, this is Spencer, Aiden and you already met my assistant Cory"
Ashley reached out her hand and shook Aidens "Its so nice to finally meet you, Ryan has told me a lot about you
She then turned to me and as our eyes met I felt that tingle down my spin one again.
"And I have seen your work all over, I'm a huge fan" Her voice was amazing and as we shook hands we got lost...It was that moment I knew I was in trouble...
The girl had me at hello.
