~~~~~~~Chris's POV~~~~~~
Chapter 1 Part 2
Our band had just finished performing. The crowd started dispersing, and it was time to pack our equipments up. I went outside to catch some fresh air and decided to sit on the speaker that I left to keep the door van open.
Fuck, that call have been bothering me all night I thought as I ran my fingers through my wet hair. I can't believe I made a complete fool out of myself by making fun of that girl's culture. I mean I had a blast when I was there helping my sister get situated, but it didn't give me the right to say the things that I said. Worst of all, I still can't get in touch with Zoey. If Mom finds out that she's missing, she'd have the swat team, coast guards, the hell even the national guards looking for her. I began to feel uneasy; the thought of my only sibling missing made my heart quiver, and I started to panic when a sweet voice came to mind. Maybe I can ask Ell for help before all hell breaks loose I thought.
I got up and walked inside; I could see our drummer Ryan talking to a few groupies. So, I sat at the bar and ordered a shot of vodka. It's funny how the waiter didn't once ask me for id. I guess it's because I'm in a band, but still I'm only nineteen.
I continued to wait til everyone was ready to go. Four shots down, and I started to feel depressed. My body was getting numb, but no matter what I still felt pain. Not the internal heart pain but real physical pain. I looked over my shoulders, and it was my neighbor, best friend, and guitarist Evben sucker punching me so he can get my attention.
"Whats wrong bro?... You still can't get in touch with Zoey?" He asked with his damn British accent.
I looked at him with disgrace and said, "I've been calling her for over a week now, and someone finally answered the phone today. Coming to find out that it was a wrong number." I moaned for a bit. "I'd wrote the wrong fucking number before I left back to Cali," I shouted.
Evben grabbed my shoulders and looked me in the face. "Calm down bro; she'll contact you. Just give it a couple more days." He assured me.
I sighed and said, "So, whats next?"
Evben looked at me, smiled, and looked at Ryan. "It seems like we're headed to the beach," he smirked as he dragged my body out the club.
Driving along the California's coast was as usual. The groupies tailgating us as Ryan took the lead in the van, and Evben drove my mustang behind him as I watched the beauty of the ocean unfold. Tonight is a beautiful night I thought as I watched the moon glistering onto the ocean.
When we arrived at the beach, I could hear door slamming, ladies hollering about how cold it is, and Ryan and Evben gossiping on whose their pick of girls. I got out the car and act as if I was joining the ladies, but as soon as Ryan and Evben was out of sight, I jumped right back into the passenger seat.
I was tired playing these games. Having these girls throwing themselves at me and waking up to one night stands after awhile I just got sick of it. I wanted something different I thought as I pulled my seat back resting my legs on the dashboard. I looked over to the clock, and it was passed 1 when suddenly I remembered that I was suppose to call Ell back. "Fuck me!" I said. I can't believe I forgot to call her back.
"This is unlike me," I pouted. Now how will I get her to help me find Zoey if she can't trust me. So I picked up the phone and dialed her number.
The phone rang about four to five times, and I thought for sure I blew my chance. So I was debating if I should hang up or not when suddenly I heard a sweet voice answered the phone.
"Hi sexy!" She whispered catching me off guard.
Just the sound of her voice made my body twitched and my face smiled. "Hey Ell, it's me Chris," I said smoothly, but all I can hear is the sound of her moan.
"Are you sleeping?" I whispered.
"Mmm, hmmm," she moaned. Her voice soft and helpless but at the same time had enough power over me. It was intensed. My body reacted and wanted to surrender. I had to let her go.
"How about I'll call you tomorrow," I whispered, but she didn't make a sound back, and I knew she was fast asleep.
"Sweet dreams, Dreamy," I said as I hung up.
I sat there looking at the moon trying to figure out what she was dreaming about. Is it possible that she was dreaming of me? I did send her a picture, and she did called me sexy I laughed, as I shook my head from side to side. She is too funny I thought as I slumped down into my seat and fell asleep.
