When The Curtain Falls

4 ~La Villa Lounge~

"I told you you'd find me," Jake said with a slight smirk in his low raspy voice. His expressions seemed unchanging most of the time.

"Ok well..." Bella sat there in shock "You never told me you were a famous rockstar!" She accused, pointing at him.

"I didn't think it mattered," Jake said, half smiling.

There was a silence that swept the room, but a few seconds later, Josh broke the awkward silence.

"I don't know about you guys, but I could go for a couple of chachkis. Why don't we go out and grab some drinks? And you and Jake seem to know each other..." Josh said under his breath.

Jake and Bella looked at each other in awkward silence.

"Yeah, and you should get to know..." Jake stuttered.

"Jenna," Bella said, helping Jake out who was pointing to Jenna, saying that to get back at Josh for teasing him.

Josh squinted at Jenna, briefly analyzing her "...Anyways, let's head out," He said, looking at his brother in confusion.

Jake and Josh led the girls out through the back of the building with Sammy and Danny following. As they were all walking down the hall, Bella turned to Jenna and quietly whispered in her ear in an angry tone. "Jenna! Are we seriously doing this right now!?" Bella had no clue what to feel. "I agreed to see the band... but this is a lot."

"Oh, come on. How many people get asked personally to go out for drinks with a band!?" Jenna told Bella.

"Maybe they think we're groupies."

"And that's a problem because...?"

"Do you not have any moral standards, Jenna?"

"Not tonight I don't."

"Jenna, you have a boyfriend."

"Yea, well I'm mad at him and I want to get shitfaced tonight."

"Then I'm with you." Bella agreed, she gave Jenna a half-smile and they both continued to follow the boys.

They stepped outside and were quickly hit by the fresh, crisp air, it was windy. Jake quickly turned back to the girls and the wind blew his hair away from his face as if he was in a music video. "You girls aren't going to chicken out on us, are you?" Jake chuckled in a low tone. Bella and Jenna walked past him and up to the car. It was an old 1981 Ford Fairmount, deep crimson in color.

"Why would you think that?" Bella asked him

"You're just looking a tad nervous," Jake murmured under his breath and smirked at the girls as he stepped in front of Bella and opened the door for them. Bella ignored his comment and got in the car, Jenna followed.

Once everyone was in the car, Josh realized there wasn't going to be enough room for everyone.

"Oh, uh I can just call an uber and meet you there," Josh said nonchalantly.

"No, no, we can make room," Jake said mischievously. He grabbed Bella by the waist and pulled her up onto his lap and she squealed in shock.

"Hey!" Bella snapped, angrily looking at Jake.

Jake completely ignored her.

"Hey, there's always that cab you could take" Jake reminded her. Bella sat quietly on his lap, she didn't want to embarrass Jenna by making a scene.

"Okay, Josh, there's enough room now, jump in," Jake called, gesturing for Josh to come in the car. Though there was now more room in the car, Josh still had to squeeze in close to Jenna and he slammed the door shut.
