I’m unpredictable.
A genius, an underachiever.
I’m the music, the voice, the enthusiasm, the agony.
I'm failure.
I do song simply because it’s what I'm, yet oftentimes that’s no longer adequate.
A slave to my nature, I look forward to it to point out mercy and drop a present in my lap.
As the tune selected me.
I’m its sufferer now not its present.
She destroyed my occupation.
Ruined my existence.
Driven me from the shadows and uncovered my lies.
She’s the hearth that destroys lesser adult males,
and now her flames are aimed toward me.
She likes to watch me burn,
however the area we certainly not observed coming?
Typically it takes a hearth to ignite a spark
And slay the darkness.

**This can be a Present day ROMANCE STANDALONE**

EXCERPT:

“Hey, rock famous person,” she purrs, homing in on me. I think the leisure of our target market. Simply provided that they retain it to themselves.

“What’s up? Benefit from the express?”

“Totally.”

Eye-fuck. Yep, that’s a specific thing. The ones curves, too. I look lower back on the men who're pretending… no they’re no longer even pretending.

“I’ll be back down to pack up.” I take Becca’s arm amidst a chorus of farewells. If all goes well, they’ll each have their own girl with the aid of the end of the night. Well, except Reece who remains faithful to his imaginary lady. He’ll make a real woman happy one day.

Now I’m snickering.

“What’s so humorous?” Becca asks as we board the elevator.

“Nothing. You cool with heading as much as my room for some time? The blokes is mostly a lot to take after they unwind.”

“Fine with me.” The flirty tone is to come back. She even takes my arm to boost it. “You men have been so so terrific.”

I manipulate a brief smile. “Thanks.”

“I imply it. Like, top-of-the-line reveals I’ve noticed.”

“Yeah?”

“I’ve seen a lot, too.” She supports this with the aid of listing every single one of them as the elevator crawls to the 9th floor. I clench my jaw while counting each number on the slowest climb ever.

“Did you already know I purchased the songs out of your first EP? Even beforehand you had been substantial. I’ve been speaking approximately you men for years. Ask Rach.”

“That so?” Don’t recognize Rach.

“Yep. Omigod. Seem,” she pulls down the neckline of her blouse to reveal a tattoo on her shoulder. It’s the candle from the quilt artwork of our Candlelight EP. “See? Toldya.”

I suppose she thinks tattoos include timestamps?

“I’m venerated.”

Shit. I used to be hoping for an effortless night time.

The elevator after all reveals our surface, and that i action for her to go out.

“Ooh! And well mannered too? One of these gentleman.”

Huh?

“Which is yours?”

“903.”

“Omigod. I admire that quantity.”

For sure she does.

“You’re no longer gonna have faith this however my dorm room freshman 12 months changed into 907!”

I examine my cellphone yet there aren't any pressing messages to get me out of this.

“You need a drink?” I ask as we transfer inside of.

“Really? Omigod! I can’t feel here is occurring! My sisters are going to die!”

I strength a nod as my mind runs as a result of a brief stock of latest groupie screw ups:

DEA Woman.

Feel sorry about and Bolt Female

Natasha—Assault Lady.

With that song list, needless to say I’m approximately to connect with Omigod Lady.

Probably I must take a look at celibacy for some time.

I locate her enraptured with the minibar after i song lower back in.

“They’re so lovable! Omigod, observe this one. Ahh! What are you having?”

“Help your self. I want a minute.”

I lock myself within the bog and lean towards the sink. I will do that. I want this, just…

Bathe. Faultless.

“I’m gonna rinse off,” I name out, unnecessarily I be taught whilst her face seems to be inside the crack of the door.

“Want a few organisation?”

“Thanks, however it’ll be fast.”

I click on the lock and soothe my head in opposition t cool picket. This can be my lifestyles. Those are my connections.

It was satisfactory.

***

A warm bathe and reserving a excessive-profile gig do wonders for my temper. I shake the water from my hair and wrap a towel round my waist. I believe truly in charge approximately my harsh appraisal of groupie Becca as I pull open the door, chiefly while she not hovers good outdoors. Might be she’s no longer as clingy as I feared. Clingy ones are the worst. One other rough-realized actuality that required Luke’s intervention on excursion. wedding

I go into the most section of the room and…

“Uh, hello,” I say to the 4 added ladies in my room. My room. My crowded, invaded room.

“Oh good day, babe! Those are my sisters: Rachel, Liz, Elisa, and Lara.” They appear not anything alike, as in: “Sorority sisters!” she shrieks for the sake of my confusion.

All of them chortle at that and—shit.

“I desire it’s k. After i advised them approximately us, they only in fact desired to meet you. They had been on the display too.”

Us?

“We love your track. We play your stuff on the apartment forever,” the redhead says.

“All the time,” Becca clarifies with an emphatic nod.

“That’s quality. Uh, you thoughts if I am getting dressed?”

“What if we observed convinced?” The Blonde’s lashes flutter with mischief instantly out of a ‘50s motion picture. A six-a few? Is that even logistically probable?

I drive a decent smile, and open my suitcase.

Whispers and giggles scatter at the back of me like I’m to come back in center college. It’s now not stunning and never in any respect how I deliberate for tonight to head. No, I’m a couple of denims and a t-blouse clear of returning to the fairway room with the fellows. Possibly they’ll be extra excited by a school orgy.

“Hey, I’ve received to come back to aid close up our equipment. You girls are looking to hold down within the inexperienced room?”

“We’d highly hold right here.”

Becca is true there whilst she says it, and that i take a step returned.

For 2 seconds I hesitate. They’re lovable. I’m horny… after which I be aware my tune listing.

DEA Lady

Feel sorry about and Bolt Female

Attack Lady

Omigod Lady who’s now accelerated into 5 Stalker Females

Shoulder-Luke screams: Is it price 5 Stalker Ladies?

Is something really worth 5 Stalker Ladies?

Even so, they’re lovely and I’m sexy.

I suck in a breath and grasp a metamorphosis of garments. “Thanks for the present, yet as I talked about, we’ve gotta close up. You’re welcome to affix us.”

“Aww, you sure?” Becca asks. “We don’t mind waiting.” Her fingers trail up my arm, and I don’t know why I’m surprised with the aid of her boldness. She’s done nothing but overstep boundaries since the moment we met. I was okay with that until she multiplied.

“Sorry,” I say with a shrug, and to come back out of succeed in. “I’ll meet you down there.”

A refrain of whining reinforces my selection, and I’m relieved after they take the trace and dossier closer to the door. I smile apologetically via a veil of dissatisfied seems to be because it clears out.

What the fuck?

I slash myself to the mattress and run a hand via my hair. I’m twenty-3 years previous. A musician. Unmarried. Why the hell can’t I locate a sane female? No longer inquiring for a soulmate right here, only a lady who won’t freaking try and kill me or invite a whole sorority dwelling to intervene on our evening at the same time. Am I being unreasonable?

As though on cue, my cellphone buzzes with an replace from the Queen of Kingdom Loopy.
