Chasing Fire

Chapter 1: Green meets Gold

JPOV

I see the silhouettes of flashing luminous lights behind my eyelids. I open my eyes to face the screaming fans and paparazzi to perform my new hit single 'Demons'.

I take a deep breathe as my hands find their way to the base of the microphone. I just wish I could be who I want to be, I have to act like some arrogant air head that doesn't care about their fans.

Apparently that's my 'image' and would attract more girls. Since I'm the 'Golden heartthrob' or 'Golden boy' as they call it I have to act like some man whore. Like, I know I'm attractive, but come on!

I hear the crowd quiet down and take that as my que to sing, taking another breathe I start...

When the days are cold and the cards all fold

And the saints we see are all made of gold

When your dreams all fail and the ones we hail are the worst of all

When the bloods run stale

Something red catches my eye in the crowd. I look down at the front row and see her. And my gosh is she beautiful. She has long red hair trailing curls down to the end of her elbow curling at the ends, emerald green- sparkling eyes and creamy slightly tanned skin with the lightest brush of freckles on her cheek bones. She isn't very dressed up, like her tall, raven haired friend next to her. She's wearing an off -the-shoulder white breezy shirt and some black skinny jeans that show off her curves. She isn't even screaming my name like all of the girls here- including her friend. In fact, she looks a little bored. I stare at her, astounded, and continue singing. But this time, to her.

I wanna hide the truth

I wanna shelter you

But with the beast inside

Theirs no where we can hide

No matter what we breed

We still are made of greed

This is our kingdom come, this is my kingdom come

Her eyes are fixed on mine as I watch her staring at me wide-eyed, like she can't comprehend how I could be staring at someone like her. It baffles me how she can't even see her own beauty, but that just makes her even more beautiful.

(Oh)

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Don't get too close its dark inside

It's where my demons hide, it's where my demons hide

The curtains fall it's the last of all

When the lights fade out all the sinners crawl

Where they dug your grave at the masquerade

Will come calling out at the mess you made

She blushes an adorable pink blush and looks away to the ground. But I still don't back down.

Don't wanna let you down, cuz I am- hell bound

Oh this is all for you, don't wanna hide the truth

No matter what we breed, we still our made of greed

This is the kingdom come, this is my kingdom come

(Oh)

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Don't get too close its dark inside

It's where my demons hide, it's where my demons hide

She suddenly looks back again, as we share an intimate exchange of eye contact. It's like everything around us disappears and it was just me and her. She blushes again when her friend nudges her and whispers something in her ear. I smile at her and continue singing.

They say its what you make

I say it's up to fate

It's woven in my soul

I'll need to let you go

Your eyes they shine so bright

I wanna save that light

I can't escape this now

Unless you show me how

(Oh)

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Don't get too close its dark inside

It's where my demons hide, it's where my demons hide

I stand their wide eyed as I finish the song, panting while the crowd goes wild. But all I can think about is that little red headed beauty.
