Lipstick Lullabies

Let's Kick it up before we leave this town

The week passed by fast and arrived at the boys' kick off show of their first tour traveling over all the country. We arrived and hugged all of them. We hung onto our boyfriends' hands. “It's going to be alright,” Tyson told Hayley and me. He leaned in and kissed me. “Don't you know we're supposed to be the ones freaking out?” We laughed.

“We're freaking out for you. So you won't have a problem going onstage and wowing the crowd,” I joked back at him. “So how long till you play?”

“Don't worry, we're the main course of the evening. We'll play last to make the fans stay.” I shook my head with amusement.

“What time will you be heading back-stage?” I asked.

“In an hour and a half. Everyone's set is for thirty minutes and the instruments are provided. So no-one will be swapping things except for the musicians.” He explained.

“That's cool, so where do you guys want to stand?” I asked everyone. Some people came and asked for the boys' autographs as we enjoyed the show. Then the boys went on and the show ended with a few encores. We stopped at a gas station and changed.

I walked out of my stall and washed  my hands. While I dried my hands Hayley came out nervously. “So how do I look?” I turned around and smiled.

I put my hands on my hips. “I don't know. Twirl for me?” She twirled around and looked back at me questioningly. “You look perfect. So how do I look?” I twirled and winked at her.

“You look really pretty.” She responded laughing then quickly frowned.

“What's wrong, HayleyMikey?” I asked worriedly.

“I just thought about the boys leaving again tomorrow.” She stated washing her hands.

I slid next to her on the counter. “Yeah, it sucks, but this week was amazing. I'm going to miss them as well, though in the end they're following their dreams. All we can hope for is the best.” I shrugged. “The downfalls of dating musicians is dating one that's actually talented.” I joked to her jumping down. “So let's enjoy our last night of this week with the best night.” I pulled her to the door and we danced to my car.

“Hopefully the boys are alright in my car.” Hayley nervously played with her hands.

“John should be driving carefully. He knows you too well.” I replied backing up. We eventually got to the restaurant. “Wow!”

“This is a really nice restaurant.” Hayley slowly stated. I nodded my head. There was a valet waiting. He tapped on Hayley's window. She rolled it down and we parked.

“I'm glad we bought these dressed.” I told her watching a group go in.

“Me too.” Hayley gasped and pointed. “It's it's it's...” She froze midsentence.

I followed her finger and gasped. “I love them! There's Dave, Jason, Kelsey, and Nick!”

“Dave is my favorite from The Dark Findings!” Hayley shrieked.

I suddenly started laughing, “Mine too.” They looked at me weird.

“You ok?” Hayley asked looking back and forth.

“Yeah, just think girls will do this to our boys one day. It's so weird and funny.” I explained.

“That is so weird.” Hayley agreed. “We should go in.” We caught up to our favorite band and were behind them. We kept nudging each other to keep from embarrassing ourselves.

The four were seated and the hostess looked at us and smirked. “What is the name under your reservations?” We looked at each other confused.

“Um, we're here for 'The Sell Outs' dinner,” She laughed. The Dark Finding band members looked back at us.

“Of course, that's cute and all, but turn to your left and walk back to your car.” She replied smirking.

I gave Hayley a look, “I'm killing the guys and John and Mister Tyson Gray is going down with them.” Dave from The Dark Finding laughed.

“So you actually know Tyson?” We both looked at him and nodded.

“Yep, we've been dating for over a year and this is what I get. Why do you ask?” I replied sarcastically getting my phone out and texting James to meet us at the entrance. Dave laughed more.

“So what's your name?” He asked as Brendan ran up with James walking in his trail who shrugged at us.

“Charlie!” He shouts hugging me. “Hayley!” He shouts turning to her they hugged. “Sorry, we thought John or Tyson would tell one of you. Oh well, let's go eat. The names under Dave by the way.” He grabbed our hands and pulled us. Dave smirked and James sighed.

“He read the text and took off. I didn't have a chance to stop him. By the way this is our producer Dave," He explained. "Brendan stop pulling them.” James stated sharply. Hayley and I laughed.

“Nice to meet you, Dave, we've heard a lot about you.” I shook his hand then looped my arm with James. Hayley followed my actions and then looped arms with Brendan. James and I talked to each other while the others followed and chatted together. I saw the boys at the last table. Tyson pulled out a chair for me. “Thanks Ty, but I'm still a little mad.” I joked. John followed Tyson's actions for Hayley. She kissed his cheek and sat. The boys talked to Dave and Todd about the tour and the new cd all dinner long. Hayley and I nodded and smiled in response. We left early and drove home in silence. Hayley and I went inside and got ready for bed. Once in pajamas I went to her bedroom and knocked. “Come in.” She replied drying her hair with a towel.

“Want to watch 'P.S. I Love you?'” I asked her with a puppy-dog pout.

Hayley shook her head and gave a small laugh. “Sure, why not?”

I put the movie in and we sat on the couch. “Tomorrow is going to be depressing.” I hit play and pulled a blanket over me. Hayley nodded in agreement. We sighed and gave each other supportive half-smiles. We watched the movie in silence with the exception of the sounds of us crying. “I love that movie.” I sniffed and wiped a tear.

“Same and it helps that Gerard Butler is a sexy man.” She said laughing.

“So true, I want a man like him.” I told her winking at her. We laughed and   put another movie. We fell asleep watching it and woke up to the sound of the boys pulling up in the drive-way. We ran outside and jumped on them. Squeezing them we said our goodbyes. I pulled Tyson in for a kiss. I whispered, “I love you, Ty,” in his ear with love and a trace of sadness in my voice. A tear fell down my face as I hugged him tight.

He kissed my forehead and tightened his grip, “I love you too, Charlie. I'm going to miss you like crazy.” I kissed him passionately on the lips with all my heart. The boys cheered us on and I stopped and blushed and hid my face in Tyson's chest. Brendan's phone went off and he answered it. It was a short quiet conversation.

He turned to all of us, “So it's time for us to start leaving. Todd is waiting for us. I'm going to miss you two.” He ran and hugged Hayley then me with the other guys following his actions. They got into their van and drove off. I hugged Hayley and we walked into the house together.

“I think I'm going to go to bed,” She told me. I nodded in agreement. “Sweet dreams.”

We got to our doorways when I turned to her, “It won't be that long till they come back. I think we can make it.” I smiled at her. “Sweet dreams Hayley. I love you.” We went to sleep dreaming of the boys.
