Some Place Quiet

A few signatures and pictures later my manager, Earl or 'Lemongrab' as we call him because he's so sour all the time, ran up to me looking furious. "What the hell are you still doing here?!" He yelled out as I just got finished hugging a fan as she took a picture of us.

"The fuck is your problem?" Earl was weird, he had almost bleach blonde hair what was spiked up to the starts. He always wore bright colors with sunglasses covering his soulless eyes. He didn't give a shit about any of us either, it was all about the money to him.

Lemongrab shoved a finger to my chest. "You were supposed to be at the after party thirty five minutes ago! What the hell are you still doing here?!" He yelled out.

"I'm signing fucking autographs alright? Relax, it's not a big deal." I said bluntly as he looked like I had just offended his great ancestors.

"Not a big deal? Not a big deal! This is unacceptable!" He screamed so loud everyone around us went silent, my bandmates stared at us.

Earl quickly grabbed my shoulder with his right arm and pulled me in and whispered roughly, "Listen kid, you want to be famous? You want to be rich? You want that fame? You go to after parties, that's were all the famous people are, alright? Cause when you go there, and you meet them and get on their good side they'll spread the word out about you. I invited a lot of people for you to mingle with so get on that god damn bus!" He whispered out through clenched teeth as he pushed me back and let me go. I looked to my left to see Guy with a disappointed look on his face, not disappointed in me but disappointed that we have him as a manager. I looked to my right and saw Keila and Bongo had the same look as well.

The sectary guard then yelled out, "Shows over people, go!" I heard a wave of disappointment through the mouths of people who just wanted me to look at them for two seconds.

I looked down to the concert floor, as I stared down at nothing a pair of feet were standing in front of me. I slowly lifted my now heavy head up to see a women I have never seen before. The lady had half black half blue hair that was cut right above her shoulders with the bangs cut right above her eyebrows. She had a nose ring along with black glasses. Her outfit was cute, Black combat boots with socks that went up to her knees along with a black skit with our bands tee shirt on under a black jacket.

"All I've ever wanted was a hug from you. But, you look like you need one more than me." The lady said, she was just a fan. What Earl didn't understand is that I cared more about the people that care for me than the rich and famous people who cared for themselves. Just then one of the large men grabbed her by the arm and was about to haul her off. "Wait!" I yelled as he looked at me for a minute as he slowly let her go.

I quickly wrapped my arms around the women who was shorter than me, as did she. This is what I wanted. I didn't care about the money, or the fame, or the glory, I just wanted this. I held onto this women harder than I held my guitar. When I let go I gave her a small kiss on the cheek. "Thank you." I said softly. The women smiled from ear to ear as a bump hit my shoulder, I looked to see Guy signaling me to the bus. I looked at the women then at the small crowd of people who still waited my attention.

"I love you all, please get home safe. Thank you L.A!" I yelled as security pushed the crowd of people trying to grab me back. All at once the fans started screaming and pushing their way to get to me.

I walked slowly, with my head down back to the tour bus until Keila bumped her hip into mine. "Hey, I know you hate leaving people like that but hey, you've got a cutie in the bus waiting for you." She grinned. I almost forgot about Bonnie and her crew.

"Wait how did you know?" I asked as she wrapped her arm around mine.

"Cause she was cute and quiet, that's your type." Keila said.

I rolled my eyes. "I don't have a type, I like who I like."

Kelia just glanced at me with a smirk, "Whatever you say, Marcy."

When Kelia and I made it to the tour bus I moved aside and let Kelia go in first, I took a deep breath. Nervous was an understatement to what I was feeling. Bonnie was different, I think, I don't know. And maybe that's why I'm so intrigued by her, I can't understand what she makes me feel and that feeling of wanting to know is taking over me.

It took three steps and I was on the bus, I looked up. The bus had one long couch connected to it on the left and right side with space in the middle to walk. In the back was one room that Keila and I usually shared while Guy and Bongo slept on the couches. The bigger purple haired women was sitting on the right next to Finn and the lady who asked me to sign her breasts. On the right side of the couch was Bonnie with Lady and Jake. The group hushed down as soon as my bandmates and I walked on.

"Who's ready to get fucked up?!" Bongo yelled out taking a seat on the arm rest on the left couch. Bongo was simple, he was short and kind of fat with a black afro not as big as Keila's, the drummer also had a solid black goatee like his hair. He never wore anything flashy just something to keep him comfortable. A shirt and a pair of jeans would work just nicely for Bongo anyway. He was free as well, free to do whatever, whenever, which meant partying until the break of dawn.

I glanced at Bonnie who had happen to be looking at me as well, I grinned, and she smiled. I walked to her as confidently as I could without looking like a total douche. I squeezed in next to her, we were all crammed up into a tiny little space but I liked it, it brought me closed to the pink haired lady. Once I got comfortable a familiar voice was in range.

"Who the fuck are you?" Earl yelled out as he stood in the front of the bus.

I looked up at him. "Chill, okay, they're with us." I said annoyed.

Earl looked at me with that shocked look again, god that look pissed me off. "Oh yeah? Everything's real great right? How the fuck are they going to get in?" Lemongrab said bitchy through his body language, one hand directed at them and one on his hip. Fuck. I don't know how to get them in.

"I'm paying for it. You better leave or will be extra late." I said bluntly. Earl took a deep breath about to speak before he shook with anger and yelled. "Start the bus!" As he marched off. I watched and grinned.

Just then a light tap was felt on my right shoulder, Bonnie. "Hey, you don't have to pay for us." She said not wanting to be a bother.

I grinned, "You are my guests, I'd be honored to spend some money on you, princess." Bonnie smiled from ear to ear and mumbled, "Oh my god." Through her smiles. The bus started moving slowly and we took off.

"Did you call me princess?" Bonnie smiled looking into my eyes. I didn't notice it until she was so close to my face that her beautiful eyes were a piercing light blue.

I smiled. "Yeah, it suits you." The lady with the pink hair just smiled as she turned her head to her friends that were calling her.

Conversations were going on all around me, my bandmates were asking questions to the group and the group was asking questions as well. I could feel my eyes start to get heavy, really heavy, I was so exhausted for some reason. I could feel my head start to go down but I did nothing about it, my eyes slowly closed. Everything around me was getting dark and blurry, peoples voices turned into slurs.

"You okay?" That sweet voice asked as I shot up.

"Yeah." I said as awake as I could. "Just a bit tired." I lifted my hands above me and stretched, I grinned as I slyly put my arm behind Bonnie on top of the couch. "You ready to party?" I whispered into her ear. Bonnie grinned and glanced from my eyes to my lips. "Hell yeah I am." She whispered back, I didn't notice it until she was right in front of my face that we were getting closer.

"Bon!" The women with the purple hair yelled. Bonnie quickly faced her and pulled away from me. "My phone died, did you bring a charger?" Bonnie shook her head, probably too embarrassed to speak.

"Hey." I whispered to the pink haired lady. "You want to go somewhere more quiet?" I genially asked.

Bonnie looked around her, "Yes please." She smiled.

I held out my hand and she gladly took it, her hands were soft like a warm comfy blanket, her hand fit perfectly into mine. I guided her across the room as my bandmates and some of Bonnies annoying friends were whistling and making nasty remarks. As I opened the door to the bedroom I looked back to see Bonnie sush everyone still with that absolutely stunning smile on her face.

I opened the door for her as she walked in and looked back at my bandmates, I said nothing and instead held up both my middle fingers and mouthed 'fuck you' as I shut the door.

I saw Bonnies eyes light up as she stood still and looked around her. The room was small but it had a bed in the center back against the wall, to the left was my side that had all of my clothes and stuff around it, to the right was Keilas stuff. Keila and I had decide to make it look a little prettier and added lights hanging off of the walls. There was also a stereo to the left as we walked in that Keila had put. The back wall was my favorite part, the whole band participated when we first got it to make the back wall look like a galaxy. It was beautiful, pink, purple, blue, and black colors spread around amazingly. I was pretty proud of it.

"This place is beautiful." She said as she twirled around to me.

I smiled, "Thank you."

"So," I said walking over to the bed and sitting on the edge. "Did you like the concert?" Of course she liked it she wouldn't have followed me if she didn't.

Bonnie smiled with delight, "I did."

"You have a favorite song?" I smiled.

The pink haired lady sat beside me on the mattress, "Hmm, I love when you sung the cover of 'Dead Inside.'"

I shook my head and smiled, "You like Muse?" Muse had always been my favorite, the lead singer Matthew is a genius and a god at the guitar, he is what I inspire to be. He talks about everything, outer space, love, hate, fear, aliens, he's just a genius.

"Duh." She said smiling. Just then a song popped into my head, there's no way she hasn't heard it before.

I grinned as I got up and stood in front of the stereo. I only had to hit play for it to immediately play 'Blackout.' I saw Bonnies blue eyes light up like I have never seen before, "Marcy, this is my favorite song ever, how did you know?" She asked with a new gorgeous smile on her face.

"I had a feeling." I said as I gave her my hand, she gladly took it and stood up with me. "One thing that you don't know, or anyone knows about me princess, is that I kill at slow dancing." I grinned.

Bonnie rested her right hand on my left shoulder as we both held out our opposite hands. "Is that so miss 'rock and roll?"

I smiled as the slow beat kept us in time. Both of our legs swayed our bodies around like feathers floating in the wind. Bonnie was different, I still couldn't tell what it was about her but she's just new and I when I'm around her I have no worries.

'Don't kid yourself

And don't fool yourself

This love's too good to last

And I'm too old to dream'

I looked into Bonnies eyes as we swayed back and forth around the small area. Her head slowly sunk into my shoulder, her cheek laying on my chest. I only looked down and closed my eyes, listening to the music.

'Don't grow up to fast

And don't embrace the past

This life's too good to last

And I'm too young to care'

The guitar solo came up as I pulled Bonnie away from me, she looked scared and disappointed at first until I spun her in a circle, she smiled when she came back to me. Our bodies, faces, so close to each other. I could feel her breath against me. Her eyes darted from my eyes to my lips, we were so close to each other, I wanted to be closer. As we got closer and closer to each other the song was also reaching its climax. When the song hid its climax and the lyrics started again, I felt Bonnies lips collide with mine.

'Don't kid yourself

And don't fool yourself

This life could be the last

And we're too young to see'
