Okay, here is the fourth chapter...Ashlie and Tommy havent really admit to their feelings yet, but Ashlie is admiting her attraction to him just not that she feels anything for him yet. See there is still someone in her life that she can't replace and is trying to but can't and I'll be working up to that but you find out for a while. Kay, I really would like some reviews...that would be awesome! But no flames please.
"Hello? Oh hey, Listen I'm really sorry about our date. I couldn't make it, something came up. Hey, how about this...I'm playing at the Vinyl Palace on Wensday and...oh I see ok well maybe some other time okay. Nice talking to you, and I really am sorry about it." I hung up with a scowl on my face. Ugh, he was a hottie too, damn that Tommy Q. Has to screw everything up, new nickname...Mr. Screw Up. Now that is funny, HA!
"So sorry about that date of yours, really but last time I checked- your career came above everything. Even personal life, got that?" He smirked at my increasingly bigger scowl.
"Take here buddy, when I say fuck you, I mean it. Got that?" I growled out as I watched him out of the corner of my eye glare at me.
"Oh shove it, let's just do this before you give me a damn heart attack, kay?" I said sarcastically, a bit of frustration laced into my tone.
"What is your problem? What will make you less stressed out, because clearly you can't function." He remarked a little frustrated too.
"Well, hmm let's see. I haven't talked to Jen about a certain problem I'm having yet..."
"What whould taht problem be?" He continued while I laughed.
"The fact I haven't had sex today...and it sucks! So unless you wanna help with this? Oh, you could just lay me down on that disgusting floor. Or we could go skinny dipping! Yep, don't know what the hell you could get in that water, but you'll get something! But its not just pleasure right?" I asked sarcastically throwing my hands into the mix this time. He just shook his head at me as he just told me to get back to work. I couldn't help but smile as I watched him resume his position leaning on his hood, watching me. But maybe that was all I needed...that little stress relief of yelling at Tommy. Hehehehe...you know what a girl needs what she needs man, there's nothing you can do about it...well he could help. I would not mind that at all! I continue to play, but a little more less drama added into it.
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
"Jen!! What the hell, did you steal my shoes again!?" I screamed as I thrashed about my closet looking for those pair of Pink triangle toes that I had. The ones with the little black bows on them, oh they were sooo cute!
"JEN!" I continued as I ran downstairs with hair still a little damp...I needed to style it, but hadn't gotten around to it yet. RAWR! Then I saw her sitting there, magazine in hand looking up at me with a smirk on her face.
"What the hell...are you doing looking at me like that. I know that look, what the fuck is going on?" I asked cautiously while backing up slightly.
"Relax...I'm not mad but hey just a little confused is all." She got up, briskly walking toward me the magazine seemed to be coming closer to my face...and this was freaking me out.
"Read." She ordered as I did as she asked.
"Oh my god, I'm in the tabloids now! Wow,..." I smiled looking at the picture and then realizing...oh shit.
"Thought you hated the guy," She laughed as she walked into the kitchen looking back at me, uh...hehehe. My bad?
"Um...he's not so bad I guess. What do you want me to say, Jen?" I looked down at the ground before trying to head back upstairs.
"Oh, no you don't! Get back here, tell me honestly what's going on? I need to knw this come on Ash..." I sighed, she did have a right to know.
"Okay...eh. I guess you saw what happened yesterday at the concert right? Well, after he left and you went to sleep and I took a shower right?" She nodded and I sighed in defeat again before continuing,
"Well, he caught me off guard in the shower..." I looked down after seeing her shocked expression.
"WOW...you guys, you know...well?" She looked excited...and I couldn't figure out for the life of me why.
"Um, why aren't you freaking out at me...cause he's my producer and like he's 22, and I'm 17." I asked in surprise myself, why wasn't Jen screaming her head off at me...but then again she always did surprise me.
"Eh,...you've dated older." She laughed at my expression as she walked upstairs but turned back to me,
"You guys look cute together, babe." and she winked...SHE WINKED AT ME...ugh dirty bitch. But I loved her and I knew she would be planning something...I knew it, I had one of those bad feelings. But, that didn't stop me from smiling.
"Yea, JEN. Wanna find those pumps for me?" I asked, completely accusing her of that "borrowing them without asking" policy of hers.
"Ugh...the pink ones with the black bows?" She laughed nervously as I gave her the 'NO the other pink ones with the black bows' look as she continued to laugh anxiously.
"Hey, you said I could borrow those!"
"When! When I was DRUNK!" I shouted at her, very upset and frustrated...this was going to be fun...JOY.
"Actually...yes." She smiled...in the same fashion, still laughing nervously.
"UGH...That doesn't count! I was Drunk!"
"But you still said yes!" She laughed as I chased her around trying to get my heels back. Oh, she was so going to get hers.
We both ended up collasping on her bed as we laughed together.
"Go get ready rockstar." She smiled at me, as I returned it effortlessly and genuinely while I walked over to bathroom. She was busy getting her outfit together.
"Oh god...Jen.! Look at what time it is!" I screamed from our bathroom as I came out...My hair was completely straight...the ends of the layers flipping up slightly and my bangs parted to the side again. I had light black eyeliner at the corners of my eyes and shimmery pale pink eye shadow covering the rest of it. I had a baby pink Babydoll with a black tank under it, the babydoll had a promient V-neck and was longer the the tank was...I was the same shade of my eyeshadow and matched perfectly with my shoes. I wore faded black skinny jeans similar to the ones I wore to the concert but darker and more faded in certain areas. The stiletto heels I were wearing were identically to the teal ones I wore yesterday but a different color and had a pink bow on them. I had a long black beaded necklace around my neck that reached down to my belly button, and had a black belt on my pants with a silver buckle of a rose. That's kind of what I felt like a light pink rose..I felt like I was just blooming and getting my color. This was my first gig as a professional rockstar...and I felt like I was on cloud nine! Nothing compared to this...nothing, not even that hot producer of mine. Ugh...I really need to stop thinking about him.
I took in Jen's appearence, she was wearing a beige no shoulder strapless shirt that was made of a stretchy material and was clinging to her waist like a second skin but really loose around the chest area. She had a pair of dark brown khakis that flared out but were tight around the butt, so she didn't need to worry about that! Her shoes were Darker brown pumps with rounded toes and 3 1/2" heels. She was wearing light brown eyeliner with brown mascara and shimmery beige eyeshadow with a shade dark brown at the corners of her eyes. It really made her light brown eyes stand out alot, it was what you would call eye poping. Pun fully intended. She had her hair pinned up in a intricate bun that you could tell took a long time to style but it looked absolutely beautiful on her. I smiled as I ran over to hug her.
"You look so pretty Jen! Wow, Some guy is gonna be up on that!" I joked as I wiggled my eyebrows at her, winking slightly as we got ready to leave. We finished out looks of with coach. Both of our Purses were larger, hers was brown, the coach ergosignature framed satchel in the khaki/chocolate color. Her wallet was matching except it was bronze instead of the chocolate brown color. Mine was black but not completely, the signature stripe mulitfunction tote. It was the silver black/white/black color. We cherished those purses dearly. They were parting gifts from her parents...well my adoptive parents because hers adopted me. So she is technically my sister. Best friends and sisters...what else could we ask for?
"Alright, you ready to go girl?" I asked as she nodded and we left our new home.
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
I sat there in the now larger than before dressing room, it was bigger than the one I had at the contest...my life before this was all flashing before me up till the concert...everything I had accomplished musically. I couldn't believe God had given me all of this...I just wasn't used to having such good things happen to me and now they were it was chemically unbalancing me you could say. Good thing I was still sane...nothing like my mother.
"Knock knock, how's my rockstar doing?" I looked up to see no other than Tommy Q standing there smiling at me.
"Fine...I um, rewrote the lyrics." I saw his surprised expression flash across his face but then returned to normal.
"So you took me up on my advice. Good to know."
"Well, you seem to know what you're doing so, yeah I guess. You're lucky I don't just do that for anyone so consider yourself special." I smiled as I paced around the room, panicking slightly. He walked over to me and gently took my hand in my own, he treated me like I was so fragile and I could break easily.
"You know, Ashlie..you can talk to me anytime you need to. I'm here for you despite the arguements. I can tell you're a good person and that your just a little rough around the edges." He made me smile in spite of the nervous breakdown that I seemed to be having today. I was a wreck..ugh god.
I could feel the tears coming and...shit! Oh my god...he's see me crying and completely run away from me no...this is not how this gig was supposed to go. Oh SHIT.
But then I felt the pad of his thumb whipping my tears away, I looked up to see him smiling and I threw my arms around his torso as I let those few tears slip.
"Thanks Tommy." I smiled while I looked up at the man I was seeming to really like now. Before I knew it...My lips were on his and nothing was holding me back. I kissed him with everything I had within me at that moment. He was responding to it...but then there was a knock on the door.
"Ashlie, its time come on." I heard Ej say as she came in.
"Well, at least I don't have to dress you!" She smiled in relief as she pulled me out as I grabbed my guitar...looking back at Tommy a smile on my lips. All the tears were now gone, with new found vigor I walked out there proudly to perform..my life, music.
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
I looked out at the audience to see Tommy with Jen, smiling at me as Georgia and Ej were together at the other side. I heard Jen shout,
"Knock em dead Girl!" I heard the crowd roar with excitement...and I found my confidence as I sang looking at Tommy, a geniune smile reaching my lips...and my heart.
"I've
been sitting in the dirt (for 24 hours)
I've forgotten what im
worth (for 24 hours)
Said that you'd be here last night.."
I'm trying to shake you from my skin (for 48 hours)
Clean
up this mess i've been put in (for 48 hours)
I'm guessing you
can't always win
I'm guessing you can't always win
Chorus
I
can't have anything I want
They say I'm just too young
But
it's not my fault
I'll find my own way home if I gotta
I'll
make it all alone if I gotta"
"You still think she's not our girl Ej?" Ej smiled as Georgia laughed while they watched the audience scream my name...
"I'm not so trustful with my friends
I'm on the road
alone again
I guess im tired of giving in
I'm sick of
wishing you were near
You've gone your way, you've made it clear
Why do I feel you everywhere?
Why do I feel this everywhere?
Chorus
I
can't have anything I want
They say I'm just too young
But
it's not my fault
I'll find my own way home if I gotta
I'll
make it all alone if I gotta"
"She's made for this you know, look at her. She's amazing. She was born to do this." Tommy said to Jen enouragingly as she whispered,
"I know, she always was. No one could even hold her back..not Shain, not her parents. Not even me if I wanted to...but I don't want to so it's ok." Jen smiled at Tommy as they watched me get the crowd screaming and jumping, calling my name.
"Who's Shain?" He asked in curiosity talking to Jen.
"She'll tell you when she's ready. Don't push it though or you'll destroy any chance of having her in your life." Jen said cautiously, really hoping he took her advice and didn't do anything rash.
"She cried on me." He said softly as Jen looked at him in shock as he filled her in.
"She never cries in front of anyone, even when she's really upset...well theres that one exception. Not even her own sister has seen her cry, that woman is a heartless bitch. We both hate her with a passion. She done nothing but hurt Ashlie. That's why she is the way she is, Tommy. So many people have been jealous of her and done things you wouldn't believe, its amazing she's still smiling. I could never be as strong as that girl right there. She's come so far, and I know she won't stop until there's no where to go...even up."
Don't
wanna spend my time
Watching the world go by
I think I'd
rather die
And I dont got a plan
Don't wanna justify
To
stay where I stand
Something I won't deny
Chorus
I
can't have anything I want
They say I'm just too young
But
it's not my fault
I'll find my own way home if I gotta
I'll
make it all alone if I gotta
Chorus
I
can't have anything I want
They say I'm just too young
But
it's not my fault
I'll find my own way home if I gotta
I'll
make it all alone
24 hours
24 hours
24 hours
24
hours
24 hours"
I finished the song with everyone screaming and appluading me, Tommy
smiling genuinely at me, happiness in his eyes. Jen screaming her
head at me. I walked up to Tommy after I put down the Guitar on
stage.
"Thanks, Tommy. That meant alot to me." I smiled as I hugged him, Said my thanks to Georgia and Ej , pulled Jen to the door and left. Tommy was left standing there in shock...that she just left., and he took after her.
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
"Jen, I cried on him...I don't cry in front of anyone! I don't get it...I never cry in front of anyone except you. I just don't get IT!" I shouted in frustration when we walked through the door of our apartment. It was nice...home now. The kitchen had a bar area with stools. From the kitchen you could see into the living room because it was open. Top knotch appliances, granite counter tops. The tile was custom and very beautiful, white and gray swirled cloudy look. The living/family room was the one that could be looked into from the kitchen. The whole apartment was expensively furnished...everything they had was nice thanks to their parents until they got settled and in case of emergencies. They shared the master bedroom and used the other one for a office. That was on the second floor which was a loft kind of thing with the master bedroom connected to it. By the front door, there was a small bathroom and a closet next to that. Then, There was the dining room through a hallway that connected to the living room. But next to that hallway were the stairs leading to the loft. All in all it was pretty big and luxurious for a apartment.
"You know it's nice to have a place of our own..don't you agree? No rules or curfew...it's nice." I laughed as she followed me upstairs plopping down on the bed next to me. Jen started to change so I went downstairs and put some music on...I mean to honest we liked all kinds of music...we just had to be in mood an most times we weren't so we did undermine pop alot...some of it was fun to dance to and just let go and have fun.
"Its like I've waited my whole life for this one night..." I heard Chris Brown sing from the stereo and I started to squeal...I loved him. He was absolutely amazing, and nice to look at too. I moved towards the door and had this weird feeling and opened to see Tommy there.
"Tommy...what are you...?" I asked as he replied...
"Can I come in and talk to you?" I nodded and let him in and started dancing to the music...my hips swaying provactively while moving over to the refrigeratior, I felt his eyes on me and looked over,
"What?" I exclaimed, agitated he was looked at me like that.
"Thought you didn't like my music?" He looked at me critically as I corrected him.
"It's not your music, it's Chris Brown's..ugh. He is fine isn't he Jen?" I shouted to Jen.
"Oh god yes!" I heard her yell down to us, and she had me cracking up...'god I love that girl' I thought to myself.
Tommy just shook his head at our antics and still watching me dancing this time the song was I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry, yep I like this Song.
"So, what's you wanna talk about lover boy?" I snickered as he scowled at me as I sang the song. He still shook his head at me.
"So you coming out of the closet to me?" He smirked as I rolled my eyes.
"You know it! Jen aren't I an amazing kisser!?"
"Yea you are girl!" She laughed with me as his little plan failed him.
"Well, I wanted to talk about us,okay. We need to...figure things out." He finished as I nodded in agreement, we did need to regardless if we didn't want to. It was one of those things where you had to suck it up and just do.
"So?" I commented as he continued,
"I don't know what to think Ashlie, you still a minor and I don't to jepordize anything so I think we should just stay friends for now." He looked down, I could see the sadness in his eyes..but only briefly and then I decided to liven things up.
"Fine..so what about having fun once in awhile? Kidding kidding." I laughed as we just completely had fun and did stupid shit the rest of the night.
The more I hated to admit, I was slowly falling for Tommy Quincy, and I didn't know to stop myself and grab onto something.
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
