-----------------------------------------Chapter one: white lines---------------------
The lights seemed hot on Paige's face, she could feel a bead of sweat drip down her face. Her stomach seemed to be turning up what she ate for dinner. Paige loved to sing, so she didn't understand why she felt so nervous. She knew that it wasn't the fact that almost every set of eyes in the bar where on her. Paige grew up doing performing arts. Her parents thought that it would be a good idea if their daughter possessed some kind of talent. So they threw her into band classes and singing lesions. Then it hit her; maybe it was a certain set of eyes that made her feel queasy.
The true was, Paige was in love with someone that barley knew of her existence. Paige had only talked to her twice, however somehow Paige knew her life wouldn't be complete without Alex. Paige wasn't sure if it was Alex's smile she noticed first of if it was her chocolate brown eyes. But what she was sure of, was the fact that she melted every time she saw them. Paige was also sure that those chocolaty orbs were starting holes in her.
Paige turned her attention back to the screen in front of her. She noticed that white letter popping up on the screen and for a moment forgot the song that she was about to sing. But the letters turned yellow and Paige knew that she couldn't disappoint. So singing along with the yellowed words Paige finially figured out what the song was. And when it came time for the chours Paige sang with all her might.
"white lines, and headlights in my eyes
White lines, I'm ready to drive all night
White lines, I'm waiting 'till I'm in your arms
White lines, will bring me home."
Paige finished the last verse of the song and climb the step while avoiding everyone's cheers and applause. All Paige really wanted was to forget about those eyes and the pressure of collage. She sat down at the smoking section of the bar and reached into her purse. She felt someone come up beside her and sit in the chair next to her. Paige found her cigarettes and pulled one out and set the rest of them on the bar. She fumbled around for her lighter when suddenly a voice came from next to her.
"Here.." Paige looked up and she was face to face with those eyes.
"Thanks." Paige said taking the lighter form Alex.
Alex was about 22, her skin tone resembled coffee with milk in it. Her hair was kept very short and she wore glasses. She stood barley over five foot tall. And weather or not she knew it she was everything Paige ever wanted.
The bar was quite minus some poor guy pouring his heart out with "I'll Be". Paige took a drag of her cigarette and started off in the distance.
"You know you have a really good voice?" Alex said letting the smoke roll out of her mouth.
"You think so?" Paige said attempted to stay cool.
"Oh yeah.. Your name's Paige isn't it?" Alex said flicking her ashes in the ashtray.
"Yeah, and yours is Alex." Paige said matter-of-the-factly. But all she really wanted to do is come out of her skin.
"oh, you know me do you?" Alex looked over at Paige and smiled.
"Oh.. No.. I just." Paige's eyes got as big as quarter's and her voice jumped about an octave higher.
"It's alright hun. It's called flirtation." Alex said standing up and patting Paige's leg. She grabbed a pen and a napkin from the behind the bar. She quickly wrote something down and slid it towards Paige, before taking off towards the stage.
Paige reached for the napkin and pulled it towards her. She squinted her eyes to be able to see what the tiny print said. Finally she made it out in the darkness and it simply said.
