KIM'S P.O.V
"So you're telling me that the Jack Brewer walked over to you and attempted to have a nice conversation with you multiple times and you blew him off every time?!" Julie asked.
"I didn't blow him off but I don't feel the need to have a conversation with him. Jack Brewer is nothing but an egotitical, overrated jerk." I stated.
"But you like his music right?" Julie asked. I simply nodded my head.
"Yes, you've known this for a while now Julie." I replied.
"Well don't you think that his music reflects his personality one way or another?" Julie asked.
"What do you mean?" I asked, confused about how this relates to the situation.
"If you like the messages within Jack's music and Jack writes his music himself then don't you think you would at least like certain aspects of Jack's personality?" Julie asked.
"Well, yeah, of coarse but I'm not one to take the good with the bad." I replied.
"What do you mean by that?" Julie asked.
"I mean, I'm not willing to excpet a ton of flaws in a guy in exchangw for a few political and social standpoints that I agree with. I don't settle for that." I stated.
"Kim, you do realize that nobodies perfect right? Not even you. You can't expect guys to be flawless, that's unrealistic. There are no perfect people in the world, only the perfect person for you." Julie stated. I had nothing left to say. Julie was right, once again.
"So what are you trying to tell me Julie?" I asked after a few minutes of silence.
"I'm saying, you should give Jack a chance. I'm not telling you to date him but let him talk. He obviously likes you and wants to get to know you better so whats the hesitation?" She asked.
"Julie, it's not just about Jack, its also about the media surrounding Jack. I don't want my face in magazies as Jack's newest fling." I stated.
"Kim, I can read you like an open book. I know that you want to give him a shot, you're just scared and that's reasonable but how are you ever going to know what it's like if you never take a shot?" Julie asked. I just sat there, staring at her. "Kim, this is your chance to go for it. Are you really just going to give that up?"
"You're right Julie, this is my shot. I am going to give Jack a chance, regardless of the paparazzi and the rumors." I stated.
"That's the Kim I know." Julie said with a large smile plastered to her face. "When is his next concert that you can go to?" She asked.
"I have tickets for the one next week in Chicago." I replied.
"Seriously Kim. You have enough money to fly across the country once a week but you can't buy yourself a lunch once a month?" Julie more so stated rather than asked.
"Are we really gonna talk about my 'poor' eating habits again?" I asked.
"No, I promised you that I would mother you anymore." Julie stated. I smiled at her. "So anyway, how many tickets do you have for the next concert?" She asked.
"Two, why?" I replied.
Don't you wanna bring you best friend?" Julie asked.
"That's a great idea, I'll definitly bring Donna." I joked, making Julie roll her eyes. "I'm kidding, you know I can't stand Donna." I stated.
"So I can come with you?" Julie asked.
"Of coarse you can Jules." I stated with a large, somewhat too enthusiastic smile. She smiled back with just as much enthusiasm.
"I want to thank everybody for coming out!" I yelled into the microphone just as my crew began to clean up my set.
Throughout the whole set my eyes pretty much stayed glued to the one girl in the crowd that would never reciprocate my looks. She would acknowledge me every now and then but she would never look into my eyes while I sang to her. She would close her eyes and fall deep into the music but all I wanted her to do was fall deep into my eyes. I wanted her to see that I like her. I wanted her to see that but all she saw was the back of her eye lids like always. Doesn't it get boring, seeing the same thing over and over again? Doesn't it get broing, hearing the same thing over and over again? Why after all this time does she continue to come to the concerts if she doesn't even lime me?
I guess any smart guy would give up on her at this point but I just can't seem to quit. Not yet at least. I need to give it at least one more shot. I ran off the stage as soon as possible, tripping over only a few chords and falling only once. I hurried the halls and sprinted to the side exit that I knew my mysterious friend would be walking out of. I stood against the wall, silently waiting for the door to swing open. Suddenly I feel the sting of cold metal hitting my face. It probably wasn't the best idea to stand behind the door.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were back there, wait Jack. What are you doing out here?" The sweet angelic voice is suddenly present.
"I was hoping I would run into you." I stated with a smile. "Are you a friend of hers?" I asked thd girl standing next to my little songbird.
"Yes, I'm Jullie. Kim, I'm gonna go pull up the car." Jullie stated as she ran off.
"But Jullie, we wal-" Songbird was cut off by her dear friend
"I'm getting he car!" She yelled back.
"Um, we walked so she's gonna have a great time finding the car." Kim stated, smiling timidly at me.
"She sounds like quite the character." I said with a slight chuckle.
Yeah, my friend Grace is even worse though. She often gets lost in thought and can not keep up with a conversation." Kim stated with a small laugh.
"I've got a friend just like that." I stated, right as I heard my name being called from behind me. "Speak of the devil." I turn to face him. "What's up man?"
"Milton told me to come find you. He said you gotta hurry up and get inside, we gotta pack for the next concert." Jerry replied.
"Alright, I'll be right there."
"Hurry up bro." With that, Jerry disappeared into the building.
"So, I've got to go but I would really enjoy talking to you some more, maybe you could call me sometime..." I trailed off, not truly expecting her to say yes.
"Um, sure, lets trade numbers." She handed me her phone and I handed her mine.
"Really? A flip phone?These are only outdated by like 5 years." I stated, earning a chuckle from Kim.
Believe me, I wish I had an up to date phone but I spend all of my money on these concerts." She stated.
"Why didn't you tell me? I would've gotten you in for free forever ago." I stated.
"Well, now you have my number. Use it wisely or I wont hesitate to block you." She skillfully avoided the question and handed me my phone back. I gave her hers and waved a goodbye as I walked back into the building.
Hello family! I know it has been like forever since I've posted or updated anything but you would be amazed to hear my explination as to why it has been forever. (It's actually not amazing at all) If you don't really care about me then just skip over the next paragraph and read the ending authors note to hear about when I'll be updating and stuff.
For those of you who don't know I'm bisexual and I've had a major crush on this one girl for the longest time probably about 2 years now. Well over my summer vacation this girl actually got in touch with me and told me that she likes me. We were both dealing with a lot of different things at the time but I didn't really care. We talked like every day and became the best of friends pretty quickly but then she started dating a kid that goes to my church and I was pretty upset about that for a while. Right around this time basketball season started so not only was I sort of depressed but I also didn't have much time to write at all. The good news is, basketball just ended and the girl that I like actually broke up with the guy that she was dating because she wanted to be with me. We officially became couple on February 7th but we have been 'dating' since before December. So I guess the point of telling you guys all of that is because I want you to know why I've been MIA and i want to get to know my readers and I want my readers to get to know me.
So anyways, now that my love life is straightened out and basketball is over, I plan to update at least 2 or 3 times month, hopefully more but I'll have to see how my life plays out. Church and my relationship and school take up a lot of my time but I'm in a good place right now and my creativity is flowing so I want to share that with you as much as possible.
Sorry for the horrible grammer, I wanted to get a chapter out so I didn't proof read.
