Kirk's POV

I was thrashing on stage, banging my head with Jason as we laughed together and rocked out. 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' was playing and it was probably the most amount of fun I would have with Jason on stage. The crowd thrashed and sang along, chanting our names as I couldn't help but feel the butterflies in my throat from excitement.

Then, that specific line that got my heart racing was sang heavily by James, "Take a look to the sky just before you die, it's the last time you will,"

James, Jason, Lars, and I all walked into a local bar in downtown Dallas as we all joked and laughed with one another as I slowly took my sunglasses off and placed them on my head. I couldn't stop myself from hearing Jason say how much beer he needed to James and then turning to me.

"Bro...I just spotted a really pretty girl, check it out," Jason says to Lars and I as he subtly pointed down the bar to a beautiful woman sitting by herself, talking to the female bartender and laughing.

She wore a leather jacket with a Jack Daniels halter top, leather leggings, black leather boots, an ammo belt, and her hair down and curled with smokey black eye makeup.

I smiled lightly and looked back to Jason, "She's gorgeous...and hot! I think I'll go talk to her."

Just before I could make my way over, Jason halted me with a hand to the shoulder and his head shaking a 'no', "Nah, man. She has a ring on her finger. We can't really do that...unless her husband isn't around," Jason teased and laughed as I laughed too.

Lars scoffed and glanced at us, "Who cares if she's married? She's hot and I want her for the night. I'm Lars Ulrich for christ sake, why would she turn me down? Pft."

I then noticed Lars twist his body to skim past Jason and I quickly, going up to the girl and beginning to talk to her while leaning on the countertop as she engaged too. I sighed and felt a sense of hope gone before turning to the other bartender, asking for a neat whiskey. As he handed me a glass and filled the bottom with whiskey, I kept exchanging quick glances with the girl down the counter as I kept smiling.

"She's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen..." I mutter with a smile and gazed at her, having a sliver of hope reside in me but wanting to let Lars have it since I wanted to be a good friend, but what made me smile was when she ignored Lars.

"Dude, what if she comes over here? What're you going to do?" Jason asked me as a whisper before looking back at the beautiful woman.

That's when she turned to Lars and said something to him before getting up and making her way over here, "We'll see what happens," I nervously said as I smiled.

She finally approached me with her face being even prettier up close than far away. I looked down at her and smiled while I pushed my hair away from my face and sighed.

"Hey, stranger," She said with a foxy tone in her voice before sitting in the chair beside me.

I smiled at her before chuckling, "Hey, there."
