TOMMY:
I don't know what to fucking do anymore. I might as well just sit in this dingy pathetic place i have to call, my, apartment. Well at least its a roof over my head, for now. I might as well sit here and rot though. Most people are oblivious of my existence, i have no job, hardly any cash, hardly any food and no fucking career! Career, slightly my fault. But still, the band wasn't gonna get anywhere, any they weren't going anywhere far to say the least. I'm probably kicked out next month, i have nothing else. Just my guitar,bass,clothes and tiny body. Im basically a fucking elf. I can't go stay with my mom, she thinks im a fag because i wear eyeliner and creepers. Elevated creepers...i hate my shortness at most times... Im not a fucking fag iv'e banged 6 chicks this year!
But i seriously need to find something to do with my pathetic life. I need to find a new career. That i enjoy. I can't exactly get a job, i have too many tattoos apparently. My poor excuse of a life... I want to be in another band, but a more successful one, and i need to earn money to live.
I walked down the cold Burbank streets, in a pair of black skinny jeans, black and white vampire shirt and my stripey jacket. As well as my not-so-high creepers. Looking around for any job offers, or any auditions or shit. None. I feel so fucking useless right now its unbelievable.
My phone vibrated in my pocket.
"Hello..?"
"Tommy, it's Alli. Come over ASAP!" She begged down the phone.
"Okay,Okay. Give me 10 minutes"I sighed.
"Kay Kay! Byee!" She squeaked before hanging up.
Allison is one of my bestest and closest friends. And she's an amazing singer, She was on American idol at this year, and she was amazing!
I knocked on Alli's door.
"Heyy!" She giggled hugging me. Allison is so outgoing its unbelievable.
"Hiya" I said softly hugging her back. "You okay? You seem pretty hypo today boo!" I chuckled.
"Yeah i guess you could say that. I got someone you should meet, i know you love music and i know your job/career surfing at the moment. This could be your big-break if your okay with it" She said happily. I was pretty unsure, but oh well. This may be, my big break.
I nodded as she pulled me into her lounge. Where i saw a tall, black haired man. Known as Adam Lambert, he was also on idol. And he has an amazing voice.
"Hey...I saw your cover of Ring Of Fire last night, it was pretty damn awesome. I'm Tommy-Joe by the way" I smiled. I nearly choked, he's so amazing. I held my hand out for a shake. (Not like that you perverts!)
"Hey Tommy, Thank's that really does mean a lot to me. When idol finished, we all got automatically signed to a record label, and i need a band. Well i just need a
bassist now. Are you up for it?" He asked coolly, shaking my hand.
Oh fuck, thank the fucking heavens. This is what i really needed! I nodded frantically.
"Yeah! Hell yeah i'll do it!" I laughed loudly. Allison smiled. "Guys should we order a take-out or something and watch a movie?" Allison asked.
"Sounds like a plan" Adam sighed. Sitting on the sofa. I sat on a chair in the corner.
Adam fiddled with his phone for a few minutes, which gave me a chance to stare at him more than i needed too. He was an interesting looking guy, mysterious blue eyes, a look that could pierce anyone's gaze, and he was quite alright. I'm comfortable with calling another man attractive, i mean, i'm comfortable with my sexuality. I can call another guy attractive, but i wouldn't date one. Plus he was an amazing singer.
He looked up and flashed me a smile. "So what music do ya like?" He asked. I rolled my eyes, i liked so many different types of music and artist's it was just weird.
"Well...I like Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, Mainly rock and metal music. But occasionally pop and glam-rock too" I sighed. "You?"
"The same as you actually, but i love glam-rock a lot aswell" He laughed. I chuckled. We we're getting to know each other, which was pretty cool. He was really easy to get on with, like, i feel a lot of sympathy for him aswell, after personal photo's of him and an ex boyfriend we're leaked. That's not the nicest way to 'come out of the closet' Nosey bastards should of waited until he was ready to come out to the world.
"Anyway, the me and the band are all meeting up tomorrow, you coming? They'd be stoked to meet you. You got an amazing sense of style from what i see. And Allison said your amazing at bass and guitar. So, you in?" He asked, raising a brow cheekily.
I blushed slightly. "Yeah, im in. Deffo!" I chuckled. Reclining into the leather chair.
"Guys the fucking take out's closed!" Allison groaned, pouting like a small child, this always made me laugh. She sat on the end of the sofa, pouting for another five minutes. I had to try extremely hard not to laugh. It was so funny. Her arms crossed over her chest and a pout on her face.
We eventually gave up and went out to buy some tacos. [SIDENOTE: Which are amazing]. And we went back to Alli's to watch a horror called 'Panic Button' Which was shit. I fell asleep, unaware that my head was resting on Adam's shoulder. I was down and out.
"Tommy wake up" I heard a voice say. My eyes quickly snapped open.
"You fell asleep, was the movie really that shitty? And you we're sleeping on Adam!" She laughed. Adam chuckled. "At least he didnt dribble all over me, like a lot of other men do" He boasted, chuckling. I chuckled dryly, sitting up and adjusting my position. I don't even know when i sat on the sofa between both Adam and Alli. Strange...
"I better get going..." I groaned. Standing up. "Why?" Allison whined like a child. She's only like this when she want's something, and she clearly wanted me to stay. But i couldn't, i gotta look up some of Adam's music on the internet, so i can learn the bass tabs and shit like that. "Because i gotta go practice" I said firmly but softly. I looked up at Adam, who smiled.
"Fiiiiiiiiine!" Alli moaned. I shook my head and hugged her. "See-yah tomorrow then, Adam" I said happily. "Yeeeaapp" He yelled through the door before i left through it. "Bye guys!" I yelled.
I got into my apartment and sat on the sofa. Thinking about what just happened. Well that was fucking weird. My phone vibrated in my pocket, better not be Alli asking me to go back round, she's so naggy sometimes. Its amusing, i learned to get used to it eventually.
I pulled my phone out, it was from a random number. I read the text. "Hey Tommy, Its Adam. Alli gave me your number. If that's okay with you. See you tomorrow then :] x"
Oh it's only Adam. I saved his number and text back. "Okay, See ya tomorrow then Adam...Hows you? x"
"Im great thanks, you? Cant wait to see how good you are at bass tomorrow! x"
"Im alright thanks :) ^V^ x"
I tossed my phone to the side and picked up my bass. The song 'Fever' Really caught my attention. It's really energetic and looks fun to play. It wasn't really that hard to learn, took me a few minutes to correct my positions on the strings and frets and shit, but yeah, it was really easy. Then i listened to it online and it sound's amazing. Well, if i can stay in his band, it'll be even better, i'll have a career, i'll actually be earning money, and doing something i love.
I grabbed my laptop and surfed through youtube, wow. Adam, Really is a star, i wonder what his hole album is like?
"Adam! x" I text him
"Yes Tommy?x"
"I need your album before everyone else. I strangely learn songs by ear...Can i have it, please? Pretty Please? x" Wow im such a ponce some times, but oh well. I can also be persuasive.
"Yeah Tommy, i'll give it to you tomorrow, okay? Be at the San Diego function hall at noon x" He replied.
Okay. Got that sorted. Hmmm, what now. I stood up and looked through a pile of old dvd's, box sets, and a few video games. I honestly didnt know what to do. I was bored. Very bored. I should get a pet!...Wait...no fuck it, i can't, i can hardly take care of my self, let alone a pet. I could adopt a dog...
I was having mixed thoughts right now. I was lonely, i needed something or someone, to pursue my thoughts. I thought again about earlier, i do admit the movie being extremely shitty. But how i fell asleep on Adam's shoulder was another story. Which i didn't know, i have no idea how it happened. But it did. Well iv'e got fuck all to do, i might as well go to the quiet bar out on the outskirts of L.A and have a whisky. I don't fancy getting drunk, but that bar is my quiet place, hardly anyone goes there. And plus the bar owners daughter, is pretty hot. Although i don't seem to phased in saying that at the moment, why..? Oh fuck it.
I grabbed my keys,phone and iPod. I had quite a nice car, although she did need a new paint job. I had a jet black mustang GT, with the two rear windows tinted. My car, also one of my dearest friends. Well she never complains! Don't judge me...
I got to the bar, it looked pretty empty, there was a few people, and there was...Holy Shit! Since when did Adam come here? What the actual Fuu...CUT MY FUCKING THOUGHTS!
"Bloody hell, fancy seeing you here!" I laughed, sitting on the bar stool next to his. He jumped slightly.
"Hey Tommy, didn't know you came here!" He laughed. "Yeah i do...sometimes. Only now and again, just to chill out. I used to come here to kind of, stare creepily at the Bar owners daughter, but i gave up on my chances with her" I laughed. He laughed with me.
"Can i help you?" The bartender asked.
"Erm, Can i have a jack daniels please?" I asked. "Adam what do you want?" He raised a brow.
"Nah i'll buy my own, my treat." I said, i winked at him. "Okay, can i have a scotch, with ice. Please?" He asked. He seemed to be a little nervous. i wonder why. I handed the bar tender the money and handed Adam his scotch. "Cheers" I said softly, grinning.
I am honestly surprised to see Adam here, i thought he'd be like all the other artists, oh well, most of them. Partying and getting laid by a new person every weekend. I know that sounds harsh, but its pretty much true. "Sooo, Lambert, how ya doing?" I asked cheesily. He giggled a little. "Im fine Tommy, thanks for asking" He sighed. It looked as if something was bothering him. But what...?
I like Adam. I think we'll be really good friends. Best friends! I sound so camp right now its unbelievable. For a gay man, Adam ain't bad, he's not even camp! Wow a straight dude camper than a gay dude...Does that make any sense?...No i didn't think so either...
I got home, and i felt a twinge in my stomach. I felt strange. It was a feeling i hadn't felt before if im honest. Never. Oh well, i better not dwell on it. I got a rehearsal slash meeting tomorrow with Adam and the band. Can't wait!...
