~We all have something that's truthfully honest, but don't want to admit it because it's something everyone is expecting~

A/N I really encourage you to listen to the song 5 Colours In Her Hair if you havent becasue then you'd have an easier understanding of this chapter and try listening to it while reading cause it has a better impact and image of what the characters are doing. Do not own 5 Colours In Her Hair by McFly nor am I associated with them.

"How's everyone tonight!?" Ross exclaimed into the microphone that was placed on a stand in between him and Riker. The crowd hollered back in reply and Ross held his acoustic guitar in his arms as if it were his most precious item. Rocky switched from a black electric guitar to one that was bright green and made weird sounds when he plucked the strings.

"To close our performance tonight, we have a little song we'd like to perform that many of you may not know, but it doesn't mean it doesn't have that Cali groove, you know what I mean," Ross turned to face his brothers and they all giggled.

"You got that right," Rocky answered as he tossed his luscious, chestnut hair to the side before he began to play the intro to the unknown song.

"They would play this one," Rydel commented as I sat next to her and Ryland in our almost empty booth.

Do, do, dododo, do!

They repeated the word several times before singing and I already liked the song just by the first 15 seconds of it.

She's got a lip ring and 5 colours in her hair,

Ross dug his hands through his versatile blonde hair that stayed in perfect position no matter how you adjusted it.

Not into fashion but I love the clothes she wears,

Riker added in his voice by standing off to the side and speaking into the microphone while playing his bass guitar.

Her tattoo's always hidden by her underwear.
She don't care.

Ross and Riker stood back to back and slowly lowered their bodies until their knees were completely bent, then Ross popped up into the air with a spin.

Everybody wants to know her name,

As "name" was being stretched Ross and Rocky were spinning in circles while slamming on the strings of their guitars and Ratliff banged on the drum set as if there was no tomorrow.

I threw a house party and she came
Everyone asked me

Riker held the microphone stand out to Ross.

Who the hell is she?
That weirdo with 5 colours in her hair.

Ross clearly pointed in my direction but barely any body seemed to notice since they were more focused on their performance.

Seeing Ross actually performing was actually making even more attracted to him than I already was. The way his lips perfectly shaped every word, the blonde locks of hair that would stick up until he swifted his head to the side….What am I even thinking right now?

She's just a loner with a sexy attitude,

When Ross sang that verse, I swore he made direct eye contact with me for at least a single second. I took half of it as a compliment though.

I'd like to phone her cause she puts me in the mood.
The rumors spreading round that she cooks in the nude.
But she don't care, she don't care.

As they paused, Ross jumped off stage and onto a table with two teenage girls.

Everybody wants to know her name,

Ross spun his head I circular motions as he leaned into one of the brunette teenage girls. By the look on her face, she seemed entranced. Couldn't blame her.

How does she cope with her new found fame?
Everyone asks me,
Who the hell is she?
That weirdo with 5 colours in her hair.

As Ross leaped back on stage, Riker leaped onto another circular table, laid on his side with his guitar and ran in sideways circles, knocking all the table contents off. But those teenage girls didn't mind.

She was all I thought about,
The girl I couldn't live without.

The enthusiasm in Ross's performance died down a bit as he seemed to gaze off into some other universe, probably lost in his thoughts. Was this song directed towards some one?

But then she went insane,
She couldn't take the fame
She said I was to blame

Ross's facial expression showed pain and menace. This song was about someone.

She'd had enough
And shaved five colours off

Then we made direct eye contact for longer than a second.

And now she's just a weirdo with no name.

This song was about me.

Everybody wants to know her name.
How does she cope with her new found fame?
Everyone asks me,
Who the hell is she,
That weirdo with 5 colours in her hair.

You could tell the song was winding down because they all were on stage lowering their energy by standing still.

And of course, I was right.

Riker strummed a few strings as the audience began to cheer and applaud. It was like a mini concert in this place. The table of girls immediately ran up to the edge of the stage and on the tips of their toes, they begged for autographs and pictures.

"Maybe one day a guy can do something like that for me," Rydel mumbled as Ryland left the booth to pack sound equipment.

"Me too, girl" I commented as I took a sip of my sweet tea.

"I've never had a guy like me before," Rydel admitted as she held her head down and fidgeted with the bracelets on her wrist.

"Wait," I paused as I set my drink down. "You've never had a boy friend?"

Rydel shook her head as she lifted her drink and began to sip from the straw.

Rydel was gorgeous. What kind of idiot has never asked her out? It's girls like her that make me feel insecure about myself. My attention flickered to Ratliff that was approaching the table with a weird sway in the way he walked.

"What up, homies," Ratliff awkwardly asked as he slid into the booth, bumping into Rydel who bumped into me. "I'll let the blondies have the women, none of them have the ability to tame this." He ran his hands on the side of his body as he tilted his shades down. His arm flung around Rydel's neck and she shut her eyes tightly and giggled silently.

I wish I had a close guy friend like Rydel did. I'm such a loner back in Colorado.

With light breath, I blew towards the straw that stood in my drink and watched it spin in circles until my eyes flickered up to see Ross talking to an average height pretty blonde who's hair had straight brown streaks towards the tips. Her outfit was the typical design you'd see in California, at night, in a place like this.

Their eyes were locked and her hands were clasped in front of her, probably waiting for him to reach out to hold one.

"Get some, sister," Ratliff advised as I drew my attention back to him and Rydel who apparently saw me staring at Ross like an idiot.

"What?" I asked trying to act oblivious.

"C'mon. Don't tell me that you don't find Ross the least bit attractive?" Ratliff tried to get me to confess. Sure Ross was like a walking advertisement for Hollister, but so was the rest of his family.

"He's not my type," I honestly spoke. I was usually into the modest, comical and decent human beings. Not ones that save you then treat you as if they wished they could drown your face in a pool of hot water.

"What a shame," Ratliff sipped on the edge of his straw with his facial expression hidden behind his shades.

"Why? I mean he's doing pretty fine with the chick over there," I noted as Ratliff began to escape the booth and stretched out his shirt to cover the belt of his jeans.

"Yeah, but I thought he had a little thing for you," Ratliff spoke and my senses instantly focused on him. Rydel was in the corner smiling, probably knowing something she shouldn't and dying not to say.

"But he always hits on chicks. I'm nothing new," I reminded as I slid out of the booth and lifted my purse over my shoulder.

"I'm not so sure about that," Rydel finally spoke up as she followed Ratliff out of the booth and back to their families table. I stood, not knowing where I actually stood. I swallowed the excess amount of salvia I had in my throat and glanced towards the friendly bunch.

The rambunctious laughter came to an end and his eyes met mine. No movement or gestures were sent towards me, but we connected in some way. His eyes, filled with mystery glaring back at mine. What did it mean?

Everyone was cracking up and seeing Ross look genuinely happy made this warm part of me, feel something greater for him.

I don't know what it is about him that ties a knot in my stomach.

But I liked it.
