PopsGodard: My Sister... the ultimate rock chic 🎸🖤

"Fuck..." Johnny said rather loudly then nervously swallowing. "What??!" Travis asked from across the kitchen island where he was pulling a beer out the fridge. "I'm a lucky fucker!!" Johnny said holding his phone up to his security. "I swear she's trying to kill me!" He chuckled before lighting a cigarette. "Just be thankful they are ready... Poppy took a whole two hours the other night just to meet me for a drink!" The lads chuckled before Johnny stood and left the room immediately pulling up his text conversation with his girlfriend.

You look fucking insane... how am I expected to keep my hands of my sublime girl in the eyes of the world??' Xx

Oh stop.. and how do you know? Are you spying on us?? Xxx

Poppy's insta. I'm not that old. I do occasionally check socials. Xx

I'm going to kill her!! X

Don't it's a great photo. You look happy.. and confident. Xx

I don't feel it. What if everyone hates me? Xx

Why would they? Xx

Because I've taken the world's sexiest man off the market. Xx

Oh now you stop... I'm not that much of a catch. Xx

God you are.. xx

See you in 5 Mi'lady x

The drive to the concert in downtown LA was fairly quiet apart from the subtle smirks and whispers coming from Travis and Poppy in the very back of the large SUV. Johnny had granted the former the night off so that the baby sister of his girlfriend could have a date night and hopefully leave her elder sister in his capable hands. Meg was admiring the view as they sped down the highway, when she felt a familiar hand on her thigh giving it a gentle squeeze. "Stop worrying." He whispered as she turned to look at him ruffing her hand through her hair and throwing it off her face she said "I can't help it.. somebody will spot us together, the photos will leak and everyone will hate me." "You don't know that." Johnny replied softly. "Oh please... half the world will think I'm no good for you, and the other half will hate me because they want you." She half giggled. "Well you have me so tough.." he lent in and kissed her quickly before retreating back to his side. "We won't be public if you don't want to.. it's just with a busy year and the festivals I want you by my side, but I'm not feeding you to the sharks on a red carpet. We need to build up to that.. if that's what you want." Meg understood and nodded. She had been briefly papped before when out with her uncle, and once or twice during the tour but nothing would prepare her for the life Johnny lived.

They arrived at the venue, and all jumped out the car by a VIP entrance. Johnny sweetly helped her out the vehicle before naturally placing a hand on her lower back as they were shown through the door. He heard a few screaming fans and saw few flashes go off from the crowd had gathered in the hope to spot a famous face and he held a hand upto wave before Meg looked coyly at the floor tucking her hair behind her ear, and heading inside. "See wasn't that bad..." Poppy said rolling her eyes. "You really will be fine." Travis added with a caring smile. "Let's go find Uncle..." Meg said before looking at the stage hand who had welcomed the group.

"John my boy!!" Alice said walking over to the group and wrapping his band mate in a giant bear hug. "And there are my beautiful nieces. Don't you two scrub up well!" He hugged Poppy before leaning into Meg who sweetly kissed his cheek, and pulled back but Alice's hands stayed firmly on her shoulders. "As always you look a million dollars and far too put together for a rock concert." Meg blushed and smiled. "Thank you.... I think." She giggled as a member of staff offered the group some drinks. "Now Tommy is around here somewhere and he's dying to see you.." Meg nodded and took a sip of the bottle of beer she had picked up from the tray.

"Now looky here. Who do we have shacking up with who?!" Tommy entered the green room and Johnny rolled his eyes. "Hey bud.." he said blowing smoke out of the way before throwing an arm around his fellow bandmate. "Hey yourself. Alice tells me you're bonking Meg FINALLY.." Meg's jaw dropped open as Johnny choked on his words. "Alice said that did he?" Johnny asked and Tommy smirked. "He said you were dating and I said, knowing you, there's far more going on.. and then he refused to listen to what I really thought!" Meg bit her lip to stop from laughing, but equally blushed at the same time at the thought of her uncle thinking those things. "Well you don't change at all do you?" She said standing from the nearby couch. "Hey beauty." Tommy said cheerily hugging the woman. "Hey favourite guitar player..." she giggled before Johnny cleared his throat with a smile. "One of.." she added looking at him and smiling.

After a few hours of mingling back stage and a lot of catching up, as many of the roadies were the same on this tour that had been on the Hollywood Vampires tour the previous summer, the four plus Sheryl made their way to a VIP box. "Oh my god!! DASH!!! I didn't know you'd be here!!" Meg said running up to her cousin, he towered over her as he wrapped his arms around her and span her round. "Hey you!! God it's been a while!! Dad insisted. You know it's a big gig!!" Meg giggled. "It's been way too long!! I've missed you!" Poppy said her hello's before the girls greeted their other two cousins Calico the eldest and Sonoro the youngest. Johnny greeted them before heading to the bar and organising drinks for everyone as the lights began to dim.

Meg rushed out to the balcony just as her uncle walked on stage. Dressed in his usual get up she whooped and cheered before Poppy approached beside her handing her another bottle of beer. "He looks amazing doesn't he?" She said proudly as her little sister began to dance.

Thirty minutes into the gig, Johnny had watched his girl enjoy herself all evening, so he slowly and cautiously moved closer to his girlfriend before wrapping his arms around her from behind. She had drank a few beers but was far from drunk as she lent back into the familiar territory and turned her head to look at him. He was smiling proudly at his friend on stage before she daringly kissed his cheek.

As the song came to a close he whispered in her ear "What was that for?" "To prove to you how much I love you, and no matter how scared I am of going public, I won't ever ditch this ride unless you want out." Johnny nodded and smiled widely. "I never needed proof.. and I doubt I'll ever want out." He said before leaning in and capturing her lips in a rather passionate but quick kiss. Her hand raised slowly cupping his cheek and pulling his head closer to hers in the rather awkward position they were now in. As the next song played, Meg pulled back blushing profusely and giggled. "No going back now..." "Nope" Johnny replied with a big smile. "You're my girl, and now the world knows it...." he said knowingly that there was press present, and many fans just the other side of the balcony also watching the concert that would no doubt share details about their passionate embrace on the internet before the night was out.
