Light On (Alan Longmuir Fanfiction)

Chapter 50

- Time Skip: April 1st 1976 -

Y/N's POV

Today was the day Alan announced his leaving of Bay City Rollers. There were no plans to fill in the gap for right now but it was in talks for someone to come in to do some guitar work. Nothing was set in stone though right now. The rest of the boys would be going on a tour soon and working on a new album which seemed like a lot of fun.

"It is kind of weird how this is going to be a tour I am not going to be going on," Alan said.

"I know but it is going to be nice to see how life is going to be doing other things," I said.

"Are you guys going to come see us on tour?" Derek asked.

"Of course we are going to," I said.

"The German tour is going to start on the 15th which is going to be a lot of fun," Derek said.

"Germany sounds like a lot of fun. We will be able to come since it is not too far from here," I said.

"And then in May there is a concert in Scandinavia," Les said.

"I don't know if we are going to be able to come to that one but we can try," I said.

"I don't know where life is going to be taking me right now so everything is kind of in the air right now," Alan said.

"And then come June we are off to Canada to record the next upcoming album," Eric said.

"I think it is fun how much you guys have planned out for the next couple of months," I said.

"The nice thing is we kind of have everything in order. You would think we would not but we do," Woody said with a chuckle.

"Well it is nice to be able to know what you are doing next," I said.

"I wish it would have been more like that when I was doing things," Alan said.

"It took time to be able to figure it out but we have a good grip now," Les said.

"I think it is good you guys are going to be having a lot of fun," Alan said.

"What are you going to be doing now you are not in the group?" Eric asked.

"I don't know yet. I do kind of wanna look into the behind the scenes of how music is fully done," Alan said.

"I think that would be fun," Derek said.

"But in the meantime I might have to go back to plumbing depending on the money situation," Alan said.

"Well if you two are going to be moving out you might have to," Eric said.

"I know we had talked about moving out a couple of months ago but how is it going right now?" Alan asked looking at me.

"Well we found a house we are thinking of renting out. I think it is going to be fun to rent one while the house is being built," I said.

"You guys have thought everything out even to the minor details huh?" Woody asked.

"Yeah, it is kind of one of those things we do," Alan said with a chuckle.

"How does it feel now to be the guy on bass?" I asked as I looked at Woody.

"It is going to be interesting. Since I have always been on just basic guitar or piano it is quite different now," Woody said.

"Is that how it is going to be for the upcoming shows?" Alan asked.

"Yeah, we kind of need the bass so," Woody said with a chuckle.

"I do think it is going to be interesting if one day we do add a new member to the group," Derek said.

"I think we might by the end of the year to make it 5 again," Les said.

"And depending on how some of these shows go and the rehearsals," Eric said.

"I don't know if we have ever done many shows without another guitarist," Les said.

"I don't think we have to be honest," Woody said.

"This is our first major change in the group so it is going to be working out the flaws that come with it. But it is exciting to know how it is going to go," Derek said.

"Uh hello I am still in the room," Alan said.

"I know you are and it's not bad. We know you have things to do so we are just talking about how it is going to be for a bit of time," Derek said.

"But don't go making me feel bad for leaving," Alan said.

"We aren't. We are just talking about how different it is going to be starting now," Eric said.

"I think it is going to be fine and you guys have got this. I know you guys are all talented in different ways which brings you guys close together," I said.

"Yeah, that is kind of the whole point of what I was saying but in a less long winded way," Derek said with a chuckle.

"I have to think about getting off to work here in a couple of minutes. I am going to be gone until 5 tonight so don't expect me before then," I said.

"Why are you going to be working so late?" Les asked.

"Well since my job has been kind of changing I have to edit a couple of papers again. I also have to get images for a couple of the articles into the actual articles for print," I said.

"The things you do are so very interesting," Eric said.

"She is quite interesting in the job she does," Alan said.

"It is fun but also at times it can be complicated," I said.

"I should come to work with you one of these days. Find out if they would let me," Alan said.

"Are you going to try and do what she does?" Les asked.

"Well no but I would love to see the kinds of things she does in the office compared to being here at the house," Alan said.

"That does sound like it could be fun," Woody said.

"It could be fun and I will see if you can come with me baby," I said as I kissed Alan's cheek.

"Mmm, kiss on the lips," Alan said.

I kissed him and he returned the kiss.

"You have a nice day at work Y/N," Eric said.

"Oh I will don't you worry," I said as I got off the couch.

"Bye baby I love you be safe and have fun," Alan said as he looked at me.

"I will and I love you too. You guys have fun while I am gone," I said as I grabbed my keys.

"Oh don't worry we will," Eric said.

"Mhm," I said with a chuckle.

And I was off to another day at work.
