Hannah and Emmy squashed up at the front of the mosh pit, surrounded by what felt like the country's population at Alytain's Bad Company tour.

The two of them were not only excited to be up close to the stage but also the excitement of being just the two of them without a babysitter allowed them to let loose a little better.

Susan trusted the two girls, she had dropped them off at the front of the concert hall, gave the girls their tickets and told them she'd return before the encore.

Hannah couldn't believe how much trust Susan had for the two girls, she knew if her father was dragged along, Bill would be actually like a security guard throughout the whole night.

Hannah and Emmy jumped and cheered as the crowd went wild, the lights flicked off.

They watched as the lights shined brightly over the stage curtain.

The two girls fixed their gaze on the stage as they waited.

"Her parents told her not to bring me home, guess she didn't listen." Alytain's English accent toyed through the speakers.

The crowd created a high pitch ear piercing scream in unison.

"Now I'm back!"

The lights flicked off.

The stage curtain dropped to the bottom of the stage.

A spotlight beamed brightly on centre stage.

Inside the spotlight stood a twenty-five year old rockstar; his messy black curls filled around his face, his leather tight pants left almost nothing to the imagination, his comfortably fitted singlet hidden under a fitted leather jacket, a piece of silver fabric makeshift as a belt around his waist, his black boots gave him some height as he stared out into the crowd.

There was another ear piercing scream.

Alytain basked in the screams, he basked in the moment of awe. He loved the stage, and he would do almost anything to keep returning to it.

Hannah couldn't believe her luck as she let his image burn into her memory.

"Now this is for all the bad boys who let a woman bring them home to their parents." Alytain laughed playfully.

The crowd barely heard the sounds of the band playing as screams continued to fill the hall.

"She was just my little plaything." Alytain began singing as he stepped carefully to the front of the stage.

"Only needed her for one thing." Hannah sang along with the rest of the crowd.

Emmy let tears of excitement fall down her face.

"Now I've got her parents." Alytain held his red and black patterned microphone towards the crowd.

"BANGING ON MY DOOR!" Hannah let her voice compete with the crowd.

Alytain glanced out at the crowd, he let his gaze drop down to the front row of the mosh pit. He let the stage lights twinkle in his eyes as he noticed Hannah, he noticed her smile as she attempted let herself get lost in the moment.

"Now I'm running." Alytain started singing again.

"Didn't she know." Hannah's voice let itself get lost amongst the crowd.

Alytain kept his focus on Hannah, he watched as her feet bounced on the floor. He watched the way she swayed her body to the music.

"Who doesn't love a bad boy!?" Alytain teased into the microphone, he embraced in the cheers in the crowd before shifting his gaze away from Hannah.

Hannah watched as Alytain pranced around the stage, she watched as he let himself feel the moment.

Alytain came from money, he had taken interest in music at a young age, it wasn't until he turned sixteen that he broke his families rules and fought to become a musician. As his fans had proved, Alytain had not only the style but also the vocals. He had a reputation; the party boy, the bad boy, the endless list of woman by his side, the possible touch of drugs, the nights out and the dirty laundry that seemed to follow him. He was cut off from his family money, which he didn't seem to mind as much unless he had hit a spot of trouble, which was almost every night, and he needed his parents to come to the rescue of their only child.

"How good does it feel to be back home?" Alytain dropped himself to sit comfortably at the front of the stage.

Hannah watched, it felt like in this moment she could reach out and touch him, but she didn't.

Alytain's laughter drifted through the speakers "You know it's been two years since I've been back in my hometown. Two years since I've performed on this very stage, two years since I've basked in the love of all my loves." He stretched out his arms as if he was ready to bask in the arms of everyone in the concert hall.

"WE MISSED YOU!" Someone yelled out.

The crowd, including Hannah didn't miss a beat as they mixed their cheers with laughter.

"I've missed you to, voice in the dark." Alytain let a smirk slip across his lips.

Hannah couldn't help but giggle.

Alytain's gaze dropped down to Hannah, he watched as the young woman by her side tried to reach out to him "Sorry love, I'm the only one allowed to touch me." He winked at Hannah.

Hannah wasn't sure how to take that comment, she turned her attention to Emmy.

Emmy blushed with cheekiness.

"As much as I'd love to spend the show sitting down, I'm pretty sure that isn't what you all came here for." Alytain jumped up to his feet "You came here to TOUCH ME!"

The crowd went wild.

"In the dark, we let our body take over." Alytain began singing.

"Every movement taken over with our breaths." The crowd joined Alytain in singing.
