After the grand reopening of the Moon Theatre, the crew better known as the "Theatre Family" became loyal performers.
They all love, care, and support each other (minus Mike ). What happens when one day, Buster decides to get back into the dating game?
Will it be one of his performers or someone else?
Thing is, he doesn't really know if this girl likes him back.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
It was just a normal day at the new theatre, everybody was glad of what they achieved in the past concert. Everybody rose to fame, and they were so proud.
Meena, Rosita, and Gunter got so famous, but at some point they got forgotten from social media.
Mike, well... no one knew about him, he never talked about it, but it seems like he's got lots of fans out there.
Johnny and Ash, were never forgotten. They both continued to make songs about their life, they have lots of story to tell, that both released individual albums recently, and a duet that everybody died for.
Buster couldn't be any happier to hear all these news, he was proud of his performers and proud that he made them this way. He loved them all, but one of them more than the others, right his crush. Everybody loved him in return, they were all a family, nothing will change that...
Buster watched her singing her heart out on stage with her latest hit "Into it". He loved everything about her; her punk style, her voice, her body, her attitude, her ability to defend herself, and... everything.
She finished her song with a loud strum of her guitar, then opened her beautiful blue eyes that locked with his own.
"How's that?" She asked placing a hand on her hip
"Huh? Oh, awesome! Just like the usual. Uh, Mike you're next" Buster said breaking the eye contact.
Ash walked off stage towards Meena and Johnny.
"Did you see that? I told you there is something wrong with him"
"We noticed" Johnny replied "Same thing he told me after my performance, and he wasn't even paying attention, he kept looking backstage"
Ash sighed and shrugged "Maybe something is bothering him or whatever" They stayed in silence watching Mike preforming "Let's face the music and dance".
They noticed Buster secretly glancing backstage, then back at Mike. The trio looked at each other
"That was weird" Meena spoke up
Ash and Johnny shrugged
"Let's practice or do something else, better than stalking him or whatever, how does that sound?" Johnny asked looking at the girls
"Sure thing" Ash said as Meena nodded
"Bravo Mike, amazing performance!"
"Tell me something I don't know"
Buster rolled his eyes at his comment and raised his voice so that everybody could hear him
"Lunch break everybody!"
Good, he thought to himself an hour was good enough to rest his thoughts and talk to Eddie.
He watched Meena, Johnny, and Ash chatting away arguing on which restaurant would they like to go .
Meena sat there silently and Johnny and Ash's lives could be heard from China. After a couple of minutes, Johnny gave up claiming Ash as the winner.
"Guys, Let's not waste more time. So what was the restaurant you wanted to go to Ash?" Meena asked
"I'm glad you asked, Meena. We are going to Fire Grill! It's been my favorite since I was a child"
"Great." Johnny rolled his eyes "let's get going then"
"Oh come on J," Ash smirked "I promise you'd like it"
"Okay. I trust your opinion"
"Then. Let's get going"
"What was it that you wanted to tell me, Buster?"
Eddie was in Buster's office sitting on his desk and watching his friend pacing around
"Eddie I... don't know. It's weird, why her?"
"Who her?"
"...Ash"
"What's up with Ash?"
"Eddie" Buster wined "I think I like her"
"So what?"
"Eddie, she's 17 or 18, and I'm 27 years. There's an age gap"
"Wow. I never expected you to like her...what is it that you like about her anyways?"
"Everything. Her voice, her eyes, her body, even her rude-punk attitude"
"What am I saying? This is for sure an impossible relationship"
"You never know, maybe she likes you back?"
"No Ed, it would be weird for me just going up to her, confessing my feelings and then? Get slapped in the face. I don't want to risk her life or mine either"
"Get out of this depressing world, where is the old happy-go-lucky Buster that I know?"
Buster smiled
It was true, he loved her a lot that he can't get her of his mind. But in the same time, he doesn't want to have those feelings for a teenager that was broken a few weeks ago for God's sake. He sighed, he has to move on with his life, leaving those feelings behind and try his best not to think about her.
"The only way to get that Buster back Eddie," he sighed "Is to forget my feelings about her, and that will take a hell lot of time"
"Nah. If you want to gain her heart, I'm gonna help ya. But if you want to move on, I'll still help you. But just an advice," Eddie got up and headed for the door and opened it "Don't let fear stop you from doing the thing you love"
"Actually Ash, this place turned out really good!"
"Told ya, J"
"Yeah. It's pretty tasty"
The trio was enjoying a great lunch break together. They enjoyed each other's company, despite being the youngest in the theatre family.
After they ate, they decided to walk around until it was time to leave. When they got back to the theatre, they practiced more, then each of them went to separate ways.
Since Ash forgot her train pass at home, she decided to go walking enjoying the evening weather. Then, her thoughts got thrown back to today's events, and some particular animal, Buster Moon.
Why on earth was he the one on her mind? Sure like the rest of the family she liked him, but it was a little more.
She tried thinking otherwise, but failed. Why him?
The answer is that, he was the one who supported her the most, who believed in her, who made her who she is today. She was glad, now she got real gigs at some clubs, fans all over social media, and a tour coming up. Life is perfect
Ash got closer to her apartment and spotted someone she hated with all her might. Yeah well, life is perfect if only he would stop coming here every evening.
Lance was sitting in front of her doorstep looking at the ground with deep thought. He didn't seem to notice her until she walked past by him
"Wait Ash!" Ash turned around and faced him, arms crossed
"Why are you here?"
"I just, thought we could talk for a moment?"
"I'm not taking you back Lance"
"Come on Ash, just give me a second chance, please?"
"Never" Ash replied stubbornly
"I left Becky, if it makes you any happier?"
"No Lance, you cheated and I'm not buying any of your lame excuses."
"It was a one day thing"
"Still. I entered that stupid contest just for US Lance, but you in return, cheated on me with that girl in OUR apartment." She couldn't hold it anymore, she started tearing up. She tried staying strong, but failed miserably.
She unlocked the door leading to her apartment and slammed the door in his face
Her dark, cold, quiet apartment. She threw her keys on the plate next to her door, and made her way over to the kitchen.
It was a one day thing, he had said. Did it mean that if I didn't go home early that day, we would've still been together, and I wouldn't have known.
Ash was so deep in thought, that jerk cheated on her and that's final, she's never taking him back again.
She heard constant knocks on the door, it was Lance for sure. She wasn't going to open up, instead she tried going to sleep, but failed. How bad could this get? Well, it wasn't the first time.
She heard his knocks and shouting for her to let him in, but never in a million years was she going to.
This noise only came to an ending when it was 4:00 a.m and she had practice at 6. Oh joy, she thought.
