Light On (Alan Longmuir Fanfiction)

Chapter 38

- June 10th 1975 -

Y/N's POV

We were still in London as the boys had a couple of nights of concerts here. It was fun to be writing about London while being here since we were not here too often. The next town would be Epping, Essex which was about an hour away from London.

"I love being able to do these things with you," Alan said as he pulled me onto the couch.

We were in our hotel room. The room had a bed, a couch, and a chair.

"Me too," I said as I chuckled.

"I never did think my life could ever be so perfect. I mean look at my job and look at the girl I have who is supporting me through all of it," Alan said.

"I am grateful to be here with you doing these things. I never did think this would be my life dating a rockstar," I said.

"You think I am a rockstar?" he asked.

"Oh, of course. You are my rockstar," I said as I kissed his cheek.

"How did your journal piece come out? Do you think you can send it out now or is it like you have to wait to do so?" he asked.

"I am writing all of these things as a collectible journal. Each piece is going to be in a big project that goes out into the world," I said.

"So are you kind of like writing a journaled book?" he asked.

"I guess you could call it that. I was told to make snippets here and there with new stories I want to write," I said.

"So you get to bring them in all at once?" he asked.

"Yes, and if my boss likes it enough then it will be put out as a whole piece. I know there is going to be editing involved but this is the best kind of job," I said.

"I don't know how you lucked into such a job. You get to be paid for doing things you are having fun with," he said.

"I know. When I applied to this job I did not think I was going to luck into it but here I am writing things about life," I said.

"I still don't know how you wrote an article about me the other day. How did that count?" he asked.

"Well because I was given some topics and I have to make a story for each depending on the location I am at," I said.

"So as this tour goes on you get to write about different subjects?" he asked.

"Yes, and if I messed up then I will be out of a job when I get back," I said with a chuckle.

"I am sure you understood correctly," he said with a chuckle. 

"I know I did but you know," I said as I looked at him.

"Why are you so gorgeous?" Alan asked as he looked at me.

"I am not," I said with a chuckle.

"That is what you think but I bet there is a lot of people who would agree with me that you are," Alan said.

"I think it is nice how you are always complimenting me," I said with a chuckle.

A knock was heard on the hotel door.

"Who would be here right now?" he asked.

"I am going to guess it is going to be Derek. He is always coming at the most random times," I said.

"I think you might be right," he said.

I got up off of the couch and went over to the door and opened it. It was Derek.

"Hey guys what are you two up to?" Derek asked.

"We were just hanging out on the couch and chit chatting about Y/N's job," Alan said.

"Oh fun. What about your job?" Derek asked.

"Well I am writing articles about certain topics that match the things I am doing right now," I said.

"Why don't you just write a personal book and publish it?" Derek asked.

"Well that is kind of what I am going to be doing if you think about it," I said.

"I think it is going to be fun for her to be more into the writing part of her job," Alan said.

"You seem to be having a lot of fun with your job right now," Derek said.

"I know I am," I said with a smile.

"Well are you excited to be coming to our concert tonight?" Derek asked.

"Yes, I am. I have had a lot of fun the last couple of shows you guys have done," I said.

"I think my favorite thing is when you are in the front row of our shows," Derek said.

"I know you being in the front row is always my favorite thing," Alan said with a smile.

"I think the boys have a lot of fun with the shows that we have done and are going to be doing," Derek said.

"You guys always amaze me with the shows you guys put on," I said with a smile.

"I feel like we rehearse enough but sometimes the shows do not match the things we rehearse," Alan said.

"I think that is quite true. We do rehearsal for the shows and the shows most of the time turn out way better than we expect them to," Derek said.

"Well are you guys going to be having a long show tonight or is it a more short one?" I asked.

"It is going to be about normal I think right?" Alan asked as he looked at Derek.

"Yeah, it is going to be the same time frame as they normally are," Derek said.

"Well that is good. I think it is always a nice thing when the shows are always about the same length in time. You kind of have a better idea of what to expect," I said.

"I like to think the same thing you know? Because sometimes it is impossible to predict what could go on next if it is not something we have done before," Alan said.

"And we like to add new things into the shows every now and then," Derek said.

"It just adds a new spark and feeling to the shows overall. Where it is not like a repeat each time," Alan said.

"I think that makes a lot of sense," I said.

"Yeah," Derek said with a smile.
