Sadly, this is not a Warren/Layla although I totally Ship Warren/Layla... Maybe next time.

Rochelle walked through the front door of her favorite hang out spot, The Velvet Room, completely unaware of the Big "Open Mic Night" sign hanging above the door. Upon entering she immediately noticed that distinct smell of cigarettes and beer. She simply shrugged it off and sat down at the bar. "Yo! Maria! You there?!" She called from her seat as she dropped her backpack onto the floor.

"Hold on a sec kid!" a voice answered from somewhere behind the bar.

Rochelle spun around in her chair. 'I wonder what Warren's doing..' she thought to herself as she dug her phone out of her pocket.


CAN'T YOU HELP ME AS I'M STARTING TO BURN!

Warren Peace grunted and pulled the blanket over his head.

TOO MANY DOSES AND I'M STARING TO GET AN ATTRACTION!

"God Dammit!" Warren removed the blanket from his face, 'Why Must they call while I'm asleep?!' he thought "Never When I'm awake!"

MY CONFIDENCE IS LEAVING ME ON MY OWN!

"Oh, My God!!"

NO ONE CAN SAVE ME AND YOU KNOW I DON'T WANT THE ATTENTION!

Warren quickly grabbed the phone off of it's perch, "What?!" he shouted

"Wow! Who killed your cat?"

"Rochelle? What do you want it's two in the morning??" Warren sat up.

"Just calling to see what you're doing."

"I'm Sleeping."

"Really? Weird.."

"Yeah..why, Where are you?" Warren turned on his lamp.

"Um, The Velvet Room.. you?"

Warren Shook his head, "My room, look can I call you back in a few minutes?"

"Yeah, sure."

Click

He plopped back down on his bed.


"Hey, Rochelle! What are you doing here so late? Isn't it a school night?" The bartender said as she made her way over to where Rochelle was staring at her phone, most likely waiting for Warren to call her back.

The pyro looked up from the bar, "Oh! Hey Maria. I'm just waiting for Warren to call back."

"Warren? Oh, you mean that boy with the long hair that you hang around with?" She slung the towel over her shoulder.

"That's him." Rochelle spun around in her chair, "Hey, could I have a Java Monster? I know you have some hidden back there."

Fifteen Minutes Later...

"Yeah no, I don't think the coffee Machines working because..." Rochelle was cut short.

WE'VE ALL BEEN LOST FOR MOST OF THIS LIFE!

She looked over at her phone than back at her cousin, Vinny. "I'm not crying, I'm just concerned about the toner in this machine and it not being refilled.."

EVERYWHERE WE TURN MORE HATRED SURROUNDS US!

She Ignored the ringtone, "But I think management is gonna put some new chorol..."

AND I KNOW THAT MOST OF US JUST AIN'T RIGHT!

"more in tomorow because I complained like fifty ti..."

FOLLOWING THE WRONG STEPS, BEIND LED BY PRIDE!

She grabbed her phone and flipped it open, "Hello?"

"Hey, It's me, just calling you back... are.. are you crying?"

Rochelle frowned, "Holy Crap..."

I know, it's been a while, I've been busy with my friends. Jimmy, Zack, Brian, Matt, Johnny, and I have been doing some stuff for these people we know and It took a bit longer than we had expected. R&R
