After Tonight

Another notes: Returning to my roots with this one. A simple love story. Unlike my others Beth will be the star of this one. Andrea is her sidekick.

1. Party

"This party is so lame," I said looking over at my best friend Andrea. She was having a good time holding on to her boyfriend Shane.

Mine was unable to make it. I was getting annoyed by how busy Philip stayed all the time. I knew he had a daughter, but he could hire a babysit once a week to go out with me. That was not unreasonable, I told myself.

"It's good for your career. You won't be the next Taylor Swift or Katy Perry seating at home. You have to make connections," Andrea encouraged me.

"She's right. I know you are wishing you were with that boyfriend of yours now, but you can do better," Shane said not teasing.

"Thanks," I said rolling my eyes. They were right though I was here to meet people.

"Look there is Daryl Dixon," Shane said point him out to me. Andrea and Shane weren't in the music bussiness. They were here as my guests. Still they knew who Daryl was. Everyone did. He was a famous music producer. Famous groups from Weezer to Train had recorded at his studio. Daryl was a big deal.

"You should go talk to him," Andrea encouraged me.

"I don't know. I mean I don't want to bother him,"I whispered.

"Think about your music career. The worst he can say is no. You have to atleast try," Andrea encouraged me.

"You are right. I am going to go talk to him," I decided taking a deep breath.

You can do this, I told myself feeling my nerves getting the better of me. Was it because he was so famous or goodlooking that I was getting butterflies in my stomach? I could not tell for sure.
