~ Lilith's POV~
The weeks of June had somehow flew by and now we were already in July. I was officially Metallicas personal photographer so I went to every show with my camera and captured pictures from the shows. I had grown even closer with all the guys and especially Cliff. We spent every night together and it's not like we fucked every night but we would just keep each other company. We would listen to music, write songs, write poetry, paint, read, smoke, drink, and so much more. I was completely head over heels for him and it was slowly killing me.
I was currently in James room laying on his bed while he worked on song lyrics for their next album.

"So I have a chorus for the song but I have no clue how to write the first verse.", James said.

I looked at James notebook and read the chorus.

"Time for lust, time for lie
Time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green, heaven you will meet
Make a contribution and you'll get a better seat
Bow to Leper Messiah"

I started flipping through my notebooks until I found this one verse I came up with.

"So I have this verse I think would go good with it.", I spoke.
"Spineless from the start
Sucked into the part
Circus comes to town
You play the lead clown
Please, please, spreading his disease
Living by his story
Knees, knees, falling to your knees
Suffer for his glory
You will"

"Oh wow I love that! It fits perfectly!", James exclaimed.

"Haha thanks.", I responded.

"Hey James, does Cliff have a girlfriend or something?", I asked.

"No but I know he wants this one girl to be his girlfriend.", James responded.

"Oh that's cool", I said lowly.

"Her names Lilith.", James spoke.

A smile went across my face as I looked at James and he nodded his head at me.

"I really like him you know.", I said.

"Well obviously. You guys won't stay away from each other but Cliff is scared that you don't feel the same way.", James exclaimed.

"Well I do feel the same way. I really wanna try to have a relationship with him.", I said.

"Then I'll convince him to ask you out.", James responded.

A huge wave of nerves went through me but I nodded my head and thanked James. I really hope this goes well.

~Cliffs POV~
I was laying on my bed listening to my records when James came in. He sat down and then spoke.

"What's up.", he said.

"Uh just chillin what about you?", I responded.

"Listen Cliff. Do you like Lilith?", James asked.

"Yeah man I really do. Fuck I'm in love with the girl.", I responded.

"THEN ASK HER OUT!! Dude come on she's head over heels for you.", James yelled.

"But I'm scared. How do you even know she feels that way!?", I responded.

"Because she just told me that she's in love with you but you won't make a move!", James exclaimed.

I sat there shocked and excitement overcame me.

"But what about Kirk? She seems to really like Kirk. What if she has feelings for him?", I asked worried.

"Oh my fucking god Cliff!! Ask the girl out! If you don't I will.", James said.

"Okay fine but how do I even ask her?", I asked.
