The Leading Man (Multiband Fan Fic)

Chapter 44 - The Beginning

Katie's P.O.V

"This song is called 'Fallen Angel'!" The crowd screamed.
We're playing in LA, and shooting the video tomorrow. I couldn't wait!
I went into the intro and smiled. Get me a show, that last 24 hours a day, everyday.
I'll never be sad.
Kirk was out of my mind, nothing mattered - only me and my guitar.

"She stepped off the bus, out into the city streets!"
Vince smiled, glancing my way, knowing how much I loved this song.
I composed it myself. Dylan didn't help me with this one. It's all mine!
I looked to my left, where Sherrie was standing, singing along.
Only, she wasn't alone.

Ezra stood besides her, looking back at me.
Suddenly, the world stopped.
It was just me and him.

I want him.

. . .

Alec's P.O.V

I heard the end of 'Back To The Rocking Horse', walking from the stage door, to stage right, where the Gov was.
"Gov!" I got his attention.
"There's a woman at stage door, saying her name is Ginevra Tonic. Looks like that model, Dylan had a thing for." I told him.
He looked at me, before looking behind me.

If you listen carefully, you could hear her black heels clicking on the hard wood floor.
Her black dress was a show stopper, stopping mid thigh, her legs looking to go on for days.
Her blonde hair was tied into a bun, her make up was immaculate, but she wasn't here for a concert.

"It's her..." Gov stared.
"This song is called 'Fallen Angel'!" Vince called into the mic.
The crowd screamed.

She walked this way, ignoring us, and all the stares. She looked at Dylan and smiled.
"I'll make sure he sees you, at the end of the show." Gov told her, before dragging my ass to stage left, not waiting for a reply.

. . .

Stevie's P.O.V

I crashed on some cymbals, noticing a guy at stage left, staring at my cousin, and only at her. He looked just like Duff McKagan did, back in the '80s.
She knew he was there, as she kept looking over at him.
But I also noticed Alec and the Gov at stage left. This wasn't weird, but what was weird was that they were both looking to stage right, the attention of my girlfriend gone with them.
I looked over, not seeing anything, except for Vikki.

Vikki...

I did a double take.

That's Vikki!

Dylan looked up at me, smiling my way. He doesn't know.
I nodded to stage right.
He looked confused, before it came to my favourite part of the song.

. . .

Dylan's P.O.V

"When her ship came in, she wasn't there. It just wouldn't wait!" I sung into the mic, with Vince on lead.
Monroe hit her solo, and I should of gone to Eddie, but my whole world stopped, as I looked to stage right, where Stevie desperately wanted me to look.

Vikki.

She smiled, and waved to me.
I felt my heart start beating, as if wasn't beating before.
No one else was around, just Vikki and me...

This is were I should be.
I don't belong anywhere else.
I belong here, with Vikki.
My Ohana.

"Win big!" Vinnie smiled.
"Mama's Fallen Angel!" I smiled at Vikki.
"Lose big!"
"Living out her lies!" Monroe hit a high note.
"Wants it all!"
"Mama's Fallen Angel!"
"Lose it all!"
"Rolling the dice of her life!" I love you, Vikki.

. . .

I took a bow, took my guitar off and handed it to Vince. He was confused, also holding Monroe's guitar.
I walked off stage and to the place I needed to be.
Sweat stuck to my skin, I'm panting for breath, I'm gagging for a drink.
If she doesn't love me at my worst, she doesn't deserve me at my best.

She smiled.

I walked up to her, grabbed her hips and kissed her, having her kiss me back.
"Vikki, I love you. I regret ever letting you go. I'm so sorry I couldn't of been there to see you off, but I'm so proud of you, and how far you've come. I can't stop thinking about you." I confessed.
"Dylan!" She smiled, her arms around my neck. "I love you more than anything else in this world."
I pressed my forehead to hers, looking into her eyes, smiling brightly.
Now, I'm home.

. . .

Katie's P.O.V

I handed Vince my guitar, took my bow and ran off the stage, heading stage left.
"You're here!" I smiled at him.
"I couldn't miss this!" He smiled at me. "And I kept my pass this time!" He held his pass up, from it hanging from his neck.
I smiled. How could I not?
"I saw you at the bar, but I had a lot going on... I wanted to say hi." I told him.

No. I didn't go to him.

I stood in the lift, talking to my dad.
He and my mum stayed the best of friends, even when she moved on from him.
I've fallen out of love with Kirk, like I'm convinced he has with me.
"Nah, I get it. You just finished a show, and all." Ezra smiled at me.
"Sorry, to cut in! Vikki Camel!" Alec grabbed me, and spun me around, having me look to stage right, where Dylan and Vikki were kissing.
"Fuck off!" I gasped.
"Who's that?!" Ezra asked me.
"Vikki Camel. She's a model. She's one of my best friends! Her and Dylan are mad for each other." I told him.
"No kidding." He smiled, looking down at me.
I looked up at him, before Eddie, Stevie and Vince showed up.
"What is going on?!" Eddie asked us, smiling, looking back at Vikki and Dylan.
"This is the best day of my life!" Alec smiled.
We needed to make tracks, but I had to see Vikki first.

While our roadies, including Alec, starting packing up, I ran to stage right.
"Vikki!" I called out to her.
She stepped back from Dylan, looking over my way, smiling upon seeing me.
"Hey!" She smiled.
I ran up to her, crushing her bones.
"I've missed you so much! I love you so much!" I told her, having her crush me back.
"I've missed you too!" She beamed.
"You look... Like a model." I wasn't too keen on the heels, but she looked amazing.
"I came straight from a shoot! I had to see you both. Katie." She held both my shoulders. "Kirk cheated on you, with a friend of mine. She came to a show, in England, and told me she slept with a guitar tech. She described him, then I saw a picture of Kirk. She confirmed he was the guy..."
