The previous night!

Syd's POV

It's about 10:30 and I am just getting to the club oh god my dad is annoyingly stubborn because I am suppose to be grounded he put on his new security system. It has sensors on all the windows and external doors, which all link back with alarms to not only his office downstairs but an off sight location my guess is probably in the LA office, as well as if there is any breach's a message is instantly sent to his mobile detailing it. A minor annoyance and I am late because of it took me two hours to hack it so I missed my lift and had to walk to the club, and to add insult to injury it cost me my PDA, to hack the system. Well I'll be able to get out easily from now on and I'll just use the code on my dad's largest credit card which he was stupid enough to let me borrow two months ago to order a new one, thank god for FedEx it will be here within the week.

I call to TR and Geoff as I approach they wave me in the club pass the dozens of people lining up outside. 'I love being with the band it has certain perks.' The bands on again and the drumming base literally shakes the ground as I walk in girls and guys look my way girls just glance at me while the guys take good long looks of me up and down I might blush if it doesn't happen every time I walk or dance in a club, ever since I've been dating Noah but not because they know who I am Kas said it's because I am more confident. 'Yeah sure anyway I've stopped trying to analyse it I just end up with a worst headache than the music's giving me I've learnt to just ignore it.

I see Kas over the other side of the club and know Noah's not on stage at the moment. I can't see him so I head over to Kas, who is quickly becoming my best friend. For the last couple of months I really haven't seen Francie and Will apart from when I make it in to school which means 5th period and I am too tired to even notice anyone, usually Noah picks me up after too so it's hard to see them. Tomorrow I'll go see them both I miss them.

"Syd, sweetie haw you been I heard you got booked."

"Yeah, my dad picked me up though it's all good."

"He must be pissed though right?"

"A little."

"Hence why your so late you missed Noah's first show, he wasn't very happy."

"Oh I'll make it up to him later, do you know where he is?"

"No saw him a while back but…."

"What?"

"Nothin, lets sit down."

"Kas what's wrong?"

"Nothings wrong I just wanted to know how far you got with Noah is all."

"Oh, no further than the last time you asked. Why?"

"Oh well I was just wondering, cos, he's told you he's been sighed, right?"

"Of course he called me; I am his girlfriend why wouldn't he tell me?"

"No reason, it's just… ok … this is what it is …"

"Kas will you spit it out already."

"Okay, okay… its just … I've been round here a lot longer than you have and I know I mean… I've seen it before when groups get sighed they become… hot stuff you know?"

"Yeah of course I know its great for him."

"Yeah but you see most guys especially… the lead signers… well they kinda get caught up in the action and the excitement of it all and well…"

"Kas what are you tryin to say?"

"It's just that…" I see her look over my shoulder and I follow her line of sight and see Noah, my Noah with a girl on each of his arms and one practically drooling all over him. She's leaning right up against him in front of him while he leans on the stage ignoring the band above them and with guys from his band all round him with similar Blond, big busted, half naked sluts draped all over them. I can't help to swallow at the sight, Noah isn't even trying to get them off him he's even looking like he's enjoying it. Of course he's enjoying it he is a guy. Yeah a guy with life size poorly dressed Barbie's all over him while he has a girlfriend.

"Syd, once they get sighed-"Kas stops talking as soon as she sees my face I turn away from it barely able to contain the tears from streaming down my face.

"Syd honey, aw sweetie." Kas moves so she's perching on the table in front of me as I will with every partial of my being not to cry. Kas holds my arms and leans her head against the top of my bowed head trying to comfort me; it really isn't working very well. She stops takes a deep breath while I begin to quietly whimper pathetically. "Stop it!" she says to me quietly yet forcefully, at the sudden change in her demure I look up at her, her face is hard and she has her jaw clenched she looks into my eyes and says in a quiet, serious, commanding voice;

"Listen to me. You love him right?" not trusting my voice I simply nod scrunching my face up to try and prevent a sob from escaping my thought which I can feel quickly and strongly building.

"Then you have to keep him." My eyes shoot open and look into hers. 'is she crazy I can't compete with them, even if they were regular babes I would be no match let alone three of them.'

"You can do it. I know you. You walk into a room and without even trying to all eyes are on you. You are worth 100 of those flimsies. You understand me?" I just shake my head at her; there is no way in hell any guy would pick me over them.

"Yes you are, the only reason Noah keeps you around, isn't because he love's you it's because of this ability you have and to keep him you are going to have to use it. The only reason Noah got the sighing is because of you he has to take you as part of the contract because when he walked in to the studio with you on his arm they all noticed you that's what they need for him to grab the investor's eyes. He needs you. You understand me?" I just nod thinking that she's just talking out her ass, she's my friend she is suppose to make me feel better its her job.

"You also have to give him the things that he wants and can get from them and not you." A laugh escapes my lips and I ask her;

"What's that a number for a really bad plastic surgeon?"

"No. if you want to keep him you need to sleep with him." 'oh god no' my face screws up again and before a word can make it out of my mouth Kas buts in saying more forcefully;

"Yes you can. You can do anything. The way you can get everything you want; him and to get away from your dad, is to give him everything he wants. You are a hundred times better than all three of them. All you have to do it use what you have to get what you want you are going to pull yourself together, wipe away these tears," she says wiping my face strongly, "put on your best sexy face, strut over there dismiss the bimbo's without even glancing at them and show Noah why he's yours." I can do that I can, I've done it before, apparently without even noticing, I want him, he's mine, and no blond fake thing is going to change that.

I take a deep breath look into Kas's eyes where she is staring right back at me and says quietly "That's my girl you go and show them." I relax my face pull out my compact and dap it on my cheeks to disguise the tell tail red cheeks, put it away stand up and head over strait in the direction of My Boyfriend. It seems as if the path clears for me and with each step I take my confidence grows I ignore every eye that turns my way focusing on my target Noah. As I walk up to him he looks away from the bimbows' who are seductively whispering in his ear and his eyes lock with mine as I approach completely ignoring the direction the third blonds hand is going. I walk up to him the girls parting with out even a glance like Kas told me to do I just smile at Noah cock my head which he does back checking me out completely for everyone to see his smile widens. He opens his mouth to speak and I silence him with my mouth pressed hardly over his my arms at the back of his head pulling him down to me as he slips his tongue in my mouth his hands instantly to my back and as the kiss becomes more passionate his right hand travels down to grab my ass 'God I hate it when he does that.' I pull away before oxygen becomes a issue causing him to follow my lips backwards in a need for more contact 'keeping true to the advice I once resived 'never give them everything you can it makes them want it more.''

Noah's POV earlier that night

"Kas."

"Hey Noah is Syd here yet?"

"No not yet I want to ask you for a favour." Kas just shortly nodded knowing that I wasn't asking for permission but giving it anyway she is so stubborn I am really going to have to stop Syd seeing her once of course she's served my porpose.

"You are going to talk to Syd for me get her to relax a bit for me."
"Noah, Syd my friend, I am not one of your lackeys there is no way I am going to try to convince her to sleep with you. She'll do it when she's ready, for Christ sake she's just a kid. I keep quiet all your whores you sleep with because she's my friend and I know how it would rip her a part but there is no way-" I grab her arms cutting her off and push her against the wall behind her and say to her barely containing my rage;"- Listen to me you little crack head I wasn't asking you to, I was telling you what to do, and if you can't convince her to grow up before Friday, I am just going to have to tell Billy your supplier to cut you off considering how much business I send his way he won't miss his cut from one broke junky. Also how do you think Syd's goanna feel towards you when she finds out it was you who injected her with that heroine the other night?"

"You wouldn't."

"Do you think there is anything; I won't do to get what I want?" I look at her for a few seconds keeping a firm hold on her arms before letting go and reminding her; "You have 4 days. Oh and if you tell her anything to turn her against me I will make sure your body is in a dumpster by morning. Understand?"
