I'll Be Your Light In The Darkness [brustoff]

Chapter Six

Denis POV:

I was on a plane flying to England. I never thought something like this would happen, I never thought that I would ever become the lead singer of one of my favourite bands. I had been working with Ben and the others on Skype so they could send me instrumentals for me to record. I had met them before but we had never properly spoken so I was really nervous about meeting them all.Once the plane finally landed I grabbed my suitcase and walked off the plane.

As I got off the plane my phone rang."Hello?"
"Hey Denis its James"
"Hi James"
"I'm at the front entrance of the airport so make your way there" he explained.
"See you in a bit bye"Making my way to the entrance of the airport I began to feel even more nervous and my heart was beating so fast. Part of me wondered if they would hate me or if they would find me annoying. My heart stopped when I saw James outside leaning against his car.

Taking a deep breath I gripped tighter onto my suitcase and walked over to him."Hey nice to finally meet you in person" he said hold his hand out for me to shake.I grabbed his hand in response "nice to meet you too"
"We're the others?" I asked
"There at Ben's apartment were, we're heading now, their really excited to meet you" responded James opening the car door for me.The ride to Ben's apartment wasn't that long, probably would have been quicker if there wasn't so much traffic. "So are you nervous?" Asked James as he broke the silence between us."I'm pretty nervous but I'm excited too" I responded"Don't worry about it I'm sure you'll fit in quite well seeing how we saw you drink when we first met you".

Once we arrived my heart started beating again and I started feeling really nervous as I followed James to Ben's apartment. As we stopped at the door James grabbed his keys from his pocket to unlock the door. I could hear them silently talking from behind the door which made me more nervous.Once James opened the door he walked in first "Denis has arrived!" He called."Come on don't be shy!" He then said turning to look at me.

Taking a deep breath I walked in.All eyes were on me "hey guys" I muttered nervously. Sam and Cam walked over to bro hug me and that's when I saw Ben properly.Wow I mean wow he's really attractive I can see why the girls cry over him. "Hey! nice to finally meet you in person Denis" he said giving me a bro hug. "You too" I stuttered. As I was close to him I felt my pulse skip a beat and my throat felt parched.

I spent the rest of the day getting to know the band which made me feel more comfortable around them. "What shall we do?" Asked Sam."I have a couple of films we could put a couple of them on" suggested Ben.We all sat on the couches Cam and Sam sat on one couch, James sat on another lying down, me and Ben sat on the couch facing the TV. Ben decided to put on a horror film while Sam grabbed some blankets from Ben's room and gave everyone one.

As the film went on some scenes became for gory which made me feel a little uncomfortable but I continued to watch. I could see from the corner of my eye than Ben was no longer watching the film but was watching me.

Ben POV

I couldn't help but look at Denis we have only spent a whole day together and I already feel attracted to him. I'm not gonna lie Denis is fucking attractive but I knew I shouldn't feel that way about him. Especially after what happened with Danny I defiantly didn't want Denis to leave us like Danny did. I watched as Denis looked quite uncomfortable probably because someone's insides were getting ripped out on the TV.

Without even thinking I slid my hand under the blanket and enveloped my hand into his. He looked surprised at first turing  to look at me but gave me a soft smile before turning back to the TV.

Once the film had finished I noticed that James, Cam and Sam were asleep leaving me and Denis still awake. I slowly let go of his hand to grab my phone to look at the time. It was half eleven."You tired?" I asked as I turned to look at him."Not really" he responded. I quite like his accent...it's cute. "So what do you wanna do?" I asked him."Well we could look over the lyrics of the songs you've written?" Suggested Denis."Ok" I got up grabbing my folder of the lyrics to the songs and passed them to Denis. Denis spent a while reading over the lyrics.

"You don't want the album to be about Danny.....Danny's in the past the album should be about the future" he replied.To be honest he was right most of the songs were written about Danny because I was fucking pissed. I need to be thinking about the future and not dwelling in the past. "You know what your right fuck Danny I don't want the album to be about him!"
"I'll help you write lyrics" We spent the night listening to Stand Up And Scream and Reckless And Relentless. We ended up only re writing one song that night and we knew a lot of work had to be done. But it made me realise Asking has only just begun.
