Childhood Friends

3

The sun shines through the window and it seems like my blonde hair glows golden. I slowly open my eyes and look around me. I didn't even take off my makeup and changed into my pajamas before going to sleep. I must've been really tired.
I get up and open the window. A cold breeze hits my skin and I start to shiver.
I go to the bathroom and take a long, hot shower. After that I do my makeup. It's pretty simple - just a bit mascara, concealer and lipgloss. I walk over to my suitcase to find something to wear. After around five minutes I decide to put on some light bellbottoms and a white tshirt. I close the windows again and walk out of my room.
What exactly am I supposed to say to Jimmy?
„Oh hey Jimmy You're acting weird is it because of me?"
I laugh sarcastically at me.
Maybe you should've thought about that earlier, Y/N.
I don't know what to say to Jimmy so I turn around and walk to John's room. I knock 3 times on his door.
„ Who is it?" he asks.
„ It's Y/N. Can I come in?"
Suddenly the door opens and I walk in.
„ It's Good to see you Y/N. I just wanted to walk to your room to talk about something ." he says
We sit down on the grey couch.
„ What do you want to talk about?" I ask to break the silence.
„ Jimmy." he simply answers.
„ he's acting weird isn't he?" I say.
„ Yes he is. I want you to go to his room and talk to him. Please. " he says.
„ But what am I supposed to say?"
„ Maybe just start with a bit smalltalk and then ask him what's wrong."
„ Okay I'll do it. "
We both get up and I leave his room.
I walk slowly down the hall to Jimmy's room. Before I knock I take a deep breath.
Come on Y/N! You can do it. Someone has to talk to him.
I knock two times at his door.
„ Come in."
I slowly open the door and see Jimmy sitting on his bed, listening to music with a bottle of Jack Daniels in his hand.
„ Oh hello Y/N"
He looks nervous around in his messy room and puts the bottle on his nightstand.
„ If I'd have known that you'll visit me, I would've cleaned up that mess." He says and throws his clothes into his suitcase to clean up the couch.
„ You can sit here. Do you want anything to drink?"
„ No thanks." I look at him and smile a bit.
He gets himself a cup of tea with a bit Jack Daniels in it and sits next to me.
„ So is there any reason why you're here today?" He asks and takes a sip of his tea.
„ Uhmm actually there is..." I say and look down at my feet.
We stay silent for a few moments.
„ Are you going to tell me why you're here?"
„ Well you seem kinda distracted and annoyed since the beginning of the tour. I've talked to Bonzo and we both thought we should ask you what's off." I say and get more silent at the end.
Jimmy looks at me and then back at his tea cup. Nobody says anything. We just sit there and stare at the floor.
„ Well I guess I should go now." I say and walk out of the room.
That was a weird situation. I also wouldn't trust a random Roadie if I were him. I guess Bonzo should talk to him.
I walk down the hallway to Bonzo's room.
I knock again and say: „ Hey Bonzo it's me Y/N. Can I come in?"
„ Yeah come in."
I walk into the room and sit down on Bonzo's bed.
„ So what did he tell you?" He asks.
„ Nothing."
I let myself fall on his bed.
„ I mean I also wouldn't trust a random roadie I met a few days ago if I were him."
I say.
„ Well I also wouldn't but he always looks at you and gets a bit nervous when you're around so I thought he would tell you." He says and sits down next to me. I get up again to drink some tea he made for me.
„ Why are you always pouring Jack Daniels in your tea?!" I ask annoyed and a bit sarcastic.
„ I don't know it just tastes good." He says and takes another sip.
„ What are we gonna do now?" I ask.
„ He has to tell somebody..." he answers.
„ Maybe you should go talk to him."
„ I guess we have no other choice." He says and gets up to put his cup away.
„ But I'll do it after the show. If I'd go now it would be too obvious."
„Yeah you're right... I should go to the venue and set up the stuff now."
„ See you later Y/N!"
„ Bye!"
I directly go to the venue because I am already late.
After I set up all the stuff I go backstage to drink something.
I pour myself a bit southern Comfort in a plastic cup and sit down on the couch.
After around 30 minutes the show finally starts. I decide to stand by the crowd to see the band in action. It is a whole other feeling if you stand there. You can hear the crowd singing the songs and see them dancing. There many different scents coming from everywhere. You actually feel nothing but happiness for n that moment.
The band plays as good as always and seem to have fun.
After the band left the stage I walk backstage again to tell them how amazing their show was. It is just a bit hard to find them here.
After a few minutes I finally meet John.
„ Hey John do you know where the others are? Great show by the way! I watched you from the crowd."
„ First of all, thank you Y/N! I'm glad you liked it. Robert went away with some chick and I haven't seen Bonzo and Jimmy since we left the stage."
„ Thanks! See you later."
I walk away.
They can't be that far away. I just want to listen to their conversation.
I walk down the empty hallways to finally hear Bonzo's voice. I lean against the door and try to listen to their conversation.
„ If you don't tell her, I will!"
Suddenly somebody opens the door and I fall face first to the floor.
Fuck
„ Y/N..." I hear Jimmy say.
„ Did you hear our conversation?" He asks.
„ No I didn't. What do you want to tell me?" I look at Bonzo.
Bonzo looks at Jimmy who mouths "No".
„ So I talked to Jimmy and the reason why he's-"
Jimmy jumps at him and whispers in his ear: „ For God's sake give me a bit time and I'll tell her."
Both look at me and walk out of the room.
What the hell was that?!
