Rockin and Rollin (PM me to join )

Just as Nadia was really starting to get into her pace, Nailz came around the corner, dragging that guy with her. I hope she wasnt planning on making out with him back here. "You mind Nailz? Was just back here for some alone time." Hopefully she wouldnt take offense and would just leave.

That was it. Benji was at that point. He had 3 choices: play the drums, get laid or get drunk. On a good night it could be all three. Since the first 2 were out at the moment he headed for the bar. The bartender handed him a Jack and Coke before he asked. He called the bartender over and ordered a shot of straight Jack. He tipped it up and downed it in a gulp, then followed it by the mixed drink. He drank as much as he could as quickly as he could, then he took a breath and closed his eyes. Music was racing through his head and colors flashed behind his eyelids. The bartender poured one more shot and got the next Jack and Coke ready. He was an old friend. Benji took another swig of the mixed drink, then downed the next shot. It burned a little and reminded him he was alive. He finished the first mixed drink and started on the second. He leaned into the bar, then turned around and sat back against it. When he could see again he opened his eyes and tried to focus on the stage. As he sipped on the cold drink he felt the muscles in his neck, shoulders and belly give way to that totally relaxed feeling alcohol gave him.

"Oh I'm sorry I thought it was time for our second performance of the evening, I'm sorry. Come on Greg lets go somewhere else so we can catch up." She again starts to tug on his arm but before she goes she turns back to Nadia "I think that drummer likes you, should I give a word in or two for you then maybe you'll be banging more than your drum tonight. Anyways come and get me when it is time to go again ok, bye." Nailz leaves Nadia before she can stop her.

Leon was smoking, living up to his nickname of 100 Fingers. "Alright Leon!" Alexander began to feel the groove that Leon had set, wondering if he might play along. He knew what chords Leon was playing, fairly obvious to his musical ear. With a bit of funky and groovy rhythm Alex joined in. He began to slap and pop his strings, using the alternative technique of double thumbing, made famous by the likes of Victor Wooten and the great Larry Graham.

In his head Alex was musing, the gears of his mind grinding. He hadn't seen Nadia yet, maybe he was just missing her from the crowd. But still, there was something, a thought, in the back of his head that he didn't like and it involved Nadia and Benji alone. Of course, Benji probably was a good guy, but he had to prove himself as a drummer before he could join the Chaotic Frenzy crew. It occurred to Alexander that Chaotic Frenzy wasn't a particular good name to be brutally honest. But it had become their fame over these past few months. Alex grinned, he could always start a side project if he wanted to do some other stuff. First thing he would ask was if Nadia would be on drums...

His grin continued as he was pulled into the grooving rhythm, slapping his snares in tune with the melody and beyond the chords.

Greg blinked, being pulled back stage after being asked rather angrily whether he had another girlfriend. He grinned sheepishly as Emily's mood did a total 180, then another, and then smiled. "Yeah, catching up is good. I take it that's one of your bandmates?"

 

[deepinthedark]

Benji watched the guys onstage, thinking this must be the last song of the set. They were definitely ending with a good one. It was uptempo and sounded great, especially with the keyboard work. He saw the girl, Nailz, come back from behind the stage, some guy in tow. He wondered if they were finally going to get started. A girl sat down on the next barstool and ordered a drink. She touched his arm. "Hey, didn't you used to play in that band, Ambition?" Benji looked at her. "Yes, I did." He took a sip of his drink. "What happened? You guys were good." "Thanks. Just had artistic differences." He didn't want to think about that right now. She began to rub his arm, her fingers beginning to dig into his bicep somewhat. He grimaced a little, feeling her long nails. "Yeah, all the guys in that band were good." She held out the good part and sighed a little. "You were the only one I never got to ah, well," she moved close to him and stuck her nose into his hair, whispering in his ear, "experience in person." She pulled him to her. Benji closed his eyes. 'Not now.'A little voice screamed in his head. "I was involved with someone." He told her. She put her other hand on his thigh. "So, are you involved now?" He thought about Nadia, her sweet face and soft voice and the way she could shoot him a look that melted him. "Not really." Her hand stroked his thigh, higher with each pass until Benji put his hand over hers and stopped her. "Listen, I'm here to watch this, so if you don't mind." She stuck her tongue in his ear. "I don't mind, I'll even let you listen." He pulled his head away. "No thanks." He turned to her and put her hands back in her lap. He took his drink and moved away, closer to the end of the bar and the stage. The girl moved away and into the shadows of the bar. Benji tried to look very interested on the stage.

 

[miss_pouty_lips]

All of what Nailz said to her seemed like a blur. Did she just say she was going to tell Benji something about me? "What in the hell does she know about me to tell anyone?" She noticed she had said that out loud, quickly looking around to see if someone had heard her. This would be one of those times where I should go out and smoke a cigarette. Too bad I dont smoke. Nadia didnt want to bang anything besides her drums. All of her band mates thought she was some anti social little nerd. They were right, but that didnt mean she needed help getting laid. She had sex before, just not with someone else. A vibe and the real thing cant be that different, she thought, and people make things complicated. I dont have to worry about my vibe calling me the next day.

Deciding she had enough of her drums, not wanting to lose all of her anger before the set, she walked back around to the front of the bar. She wondered if that love seat she was in earlier was empty. Situated in a dark corner, she walked towards it, noticing the bar. There sat Benji, drink in hand, with some girls tongue in his ear. Fantastic. She wasnt sure if he had seen her walk by, but she really didnt care anymore. Sitting down on the comfortable chair and staring at the ceiling, she lost herself in thought, trying hard to block all the noise around her out.

 

[DarkDesires96]

Emily pushed Greg against the wall in the hallway, pressing agianst him playfully. She started to stroke his cheek. Yeah that's Nadia, she's the more quiet keeps to herself type, which is cool in its own right I guess, but it wouldn't kill her to lossen up either. After she answered his question she then gripped his chin forcing him to look at her. I answered your question, but you never answered mine. Is there something you aren't tell me? I don't care if you are fucking around, just does your heart still belong to me. She held tightly until he gave her a straight answer.

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg raised an eyebrow at that, then reached behind him, and pulled something out of his pocket. He presented to her a small box, in which hung a hand crafted pendant he'd made when he found out he'd be moving back. He grinned down at her as she looked up at him.

 

[DarkDesires96]

Emily smiled as she opened the box and saw the pendant with her and his intinals scribed on the back. She pulled his head to hers as she thanked him with a passionate kiss slipping her tongue into his lips as she kissed him. That's an acceptable answer I knew I shouldn't have doubted you, I'm sorry forgive me. Lets go somewhere out of the road so we can talk. She then drags him a booth to sit.

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg returned the kiss, wrapping his arms around her. Then he smiled at her apology, and nodded as she led him to a booth. He sat down with her, and smiled. "So, who are the punks on stage? Sounds like they need a drummer and some vocalists."

 

[DarkDesires96]

Oh they are Chaotic Frenzy, we used to be one huge band my band and them but because of creative differnce between Max and Allie our lead singer, the one heckling them with me before, Nadia and I decided to form our own band Sweet Surrender. Allie claims Max to be a giant egotistical ass, but the rest of Chaotic Furry are alright dudes. Only reason I left was because it was too much of a hassle sharing the spotlight with being two basist in the band. So what you been up to? She started to stroke his hand, holding it gently.

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg grinned at that, and nodded. He'd tried it himself for a while, as a keyboardist. Unless one person is playing a different KIND of the specified instrument, it didn't work well. "Well, I managed to set up a very nice art line. You may have seen my work. Mostly clothing prints."

 

[DarkDesires96]

Emily smiled as she heard that he was doing well. "Oh thats cool I always thought you had an eye for art. Unless your prints are featured at Hot Topic, I'm not sure if I seen them. I still have that all your portraits of me you gave did. I love being your model, just let me know ok."

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg blushed at that, then grinned. "Really...Hmmm, well, you always WERE a great model."

 

[DarkDesires96]

"Well you know I'm not a shy person." Nailz giggled at the thought of showing off for Greg when an idea came to her. "Hey I thought of something that could you could do to help us out, which I'm sure Allie and Nadia would agree would be beneficial to the band as well."

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg smiled at that, then raised an eyebrow at her next statement. He tilted his head, raising an eyebrow. "Dare I ask? It's not going to be illegal this time, is it?"

 

[DarkDesires96]

Emily laughed at his question, thinking back to some of the stuff they did which surprised they didn't get arrested for. "No nothing like that, I was thinking of promotional work for the band, posters, t-shirts stuff like that. The posters we have now suck if I'm to be honest. And I know I can compensate you for your hard work if you agree to help us out. She said grinning widely at the thought of what would be considered compensation for they didn't have the money to pay him properly.

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg raised an eyebrow at the look on Emily's face when she mentioned compensation. Any other guy would probably have been scared to hear her say that and see the way she said it. Then again, he'd dated her for that very reason. "Hmmm...sounds like fun."

 

[DarkDesires96]

Emily smiled as he told her it would be fun. "You mean doing the artwork for us will be fun, or the compensation for said work. Now now, you must provide some kick ass designs first before we can get to the real fun." She tried keeping a straight face as she threatened to hold back sex from him but they knew that was impossible. "Ok who am I trying to fool here, we know I can't hold back on from you"

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg laughed at her expression, watching as it quickly crumbled. Then he kissed her deeply, pulling her close. "So, when do you perform?"

 

[DarkDesires96]

We did one set already and after Chaotic leaves we are going to be doing an encore soon I guess. So you never did tell me where you are living now in town, like I said anytime you need a place to crash, you are more than welcome anytime. If you need another key I can get you one. She was feeling so giddy being with Greg again just being with him was making her wet. She was thinking of dragging him into a bathroom and bending over, so she could move her thong in her assless pants so he could fuck her brains out, but she stopped herself just incase she has to go on soon.

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg smiled, not able to keep up with her questions. "Let's see...I was going to stay at the Piedmont until I can get a place. Though I would much rather stay with you, if it's okay." He smiled teasingly, giving her another squeeze.

 

[DarkDesires96]

Emily put her hands on his and held them tightly. Say no more, tonight after our gig, we're going to the hotel, pick up your things, maybe give the cleaning lady a reason to clean the sheets, and you're moving in with me. If there comes a need for you think you need your own space down the road we'll find you your own pad.

 

[dragonrazor]

Greg smiled, and then grinned at the way she said that. "Really now. That sounds like fun. And much like the old Emily who used to get us in all kinds of trouble with her...exhibitionism."
