"hearts of smoke" - Kirk Hammett

chapter 2, page 7.

....

We got off of the stage, I felt sweaty from hell, but good, I could tell Charles was low, I side hugged him.

I saw Metallica go on a minute or 2 after us, kirk smiled and went, I stayed behind and watched the opening act.

They played "motorbreath" I love that song.

Living and dying, laughing and crying.
Once you have seen it you'll never be the same
Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
Hard and it's heavy and dirty, and mean
Motorbreath, that's how I live my life

I can't live any other way
Motorbreath the sign of living to fast.

The song has some really, good and grooved lyrics, life doesn't stop, it goes fast. I smile at kirk looking at me and I go back to where everyone else was at, It was at a bar so Charles and micheal were drinking already.
....

Metallica finished and played "see and destroy" as there last song, they played for a good 2 hours maybe or close to 2 hours.

I listened threw the vibration of the walls, humming to the beats.

"Hey val" I hear sid say, "hey syd" I smile at her, "what do you think is gonna happen to you and cliff today, I know it's early but it's 4 days! Yall have been together non stop those 4 days, I feel like tension is building up here or there whatever!" Sydney says.

She gets excited anytime I get close to a boy, but even with the way I'm acting with kirk it's worse, mostly because I actually really like kirk, he's so nice, listening, caring, he loves horror stuff, he's funny, comics, action figures, you know that kinda stuff.

"I guess I hope so, I really like him but I feel like it's to soon" I lay back, "maybe, but build on it val, I see the potential!" She happily says, "okay syd, I love you okay, you slow down with James I don't need you guys getting all fuckin horny in the bus okay" I point to her, "yes ma'am" she signs to me.

I laugh at her and see metallica come in, James and cliff already having a beer in hand, kirk and lars looking for one.

No wonder they call them achollica or somthing like that.

"Hey val, you did great!" Kirk says, sitting by me on the couch and putting his arm over me, "thanks kirt you did amazing" I smile leaning into him, "VAL! WHERES JAMIE THE GIRL" Lars yells, fuck that little boy is so full on energy.

"She's coming don't worry" I say, resting on Kirk's chest, "sorry I'm sweaty" he says, laughing, "don't worry you're fine" I say, laughing with him.

Somebody knocks on the door and lars springs up to get it, "he- oh its just you" Lars goes to sit back down disappointed, "rude" micheal says, "sorry your not jamie!" Lars says, crossing his arms.

There's a soft knock on the door and lars runs to it, it's Jamie. "Uh hi?" She steps in and me and syd run to her and crush her into a hug, "oh shit syd and val hi!" She says, smiling, lars closes the door looking at Jamie.

"God she's pretty" i hear him mumble, "oh yeah Jamie this lars, lars this is jamie" I say, "hey you're wherein the shirt that val and syd were talking about" Lars smiles pointing out her shirt, "yeah! Sorry it's werid" she laughs, "nah don't worry it's not, comon come sit down" Lars says, "lars you made fun of me and syd for whereing ours, but if it's the girl that you're already in love with it's different?" I glare at him.

"Yes" he simply says, I roll my eyes "see the devil back there" I hear kirk snicker, "oh fuck you" I say, "I know you would" he winks, I flip him off and grab the camera.

"Hey Jamie do you wann picture with lars and then can me, you and syd take a picture together because of the shirts?" I ask, "yeah ofcourse!" She says, getting up, lars and he stand together and lars kisses her cheek, I take to one for lars and one for her, putting it on the table.

Lars takes like 3 of me, Jamie and syd, for all of us to get one.
....
At the hotel
....

Jamie, micheal, Charles and kirk got there before me, cliff, micheal, James and syd, me and syd say goodnight and I walk with lars into my room and see kirk and Jamie..

What the fuck.
