You May Just Be The One

Chapter Eleven.........Unexpected Visitors

Josh froze at the sound of the woman's voice. I rested my head against his chest as she yelled at him.

"Oh hell no! You went to her when you had me? She's a cow!" Kelsey screamed as she walked up.

"What the fuck?" I hissed as I looked at her.

"You're short, fat and look like a cow." She sneered.

"What do you want Kelsey?" Josh said as he kept an arm around my waist.

"I heard you had a new whore. You didn't even give me a chance! I could give you more then her!" She cried, I couldn't help the thoughts running through my head. Was this woman for real? She was such a skank!

"She isn't a whore. She's more of a lady then you ever will be." Josh snapped and we walked back inside. I wanted to go home and just hide. Kelsey just killed my mood.

Once we left, I said good night to my grandfather and uncles then headed home. Josh road with me, he wanted to make sure I was ok. As soon as I got back, I took Harley out for a walk. Josh opted to stay behind and make us some hot chocolate. I shook my head as I took her out. One the short walk, I thought about how my life had changed since I had moved to Canada. It was better, I knew it was. I had the thought I should have my parents come visit and let them see who I was doing. I would wait. Wait until I could show them that music wasn't a pipe dream.

Once I got back to my apartment, Josh was sitting on the couch with mugs and looked tired. I told Harley to go to bed and sat with him. He smiled as he pulled me close. I rested my head on his shoulder and slowly feel asleep.

I woke up the next morning alone. I saw Harley asleep by the front door as I tried to get my eyes to focus. Last night felt like a dream, maybe it was a dream. I went to my room and looked for something to wear when I heard my front door open. I was half dressed as I walked out of my room.

"Nice outfit. Very sexy." Josh laughed as he set down a paper bag and walked over to me.

"Where'd you go?" I smiled as he snaked his arms around my waist.

"Bagels." He pressed his lips to mine and I felt myself relax. His kisses made me weak. I would do anything he wanted.

"Fun...you know I have to work today right? And I have to see my grandfather and uncles." I pulled away and saw him pout.

"I thought we could just....hang out and work on your music." He gave me the puppy dog eyes and I laughed.

"As sexy as that is, I have to work. I'll only be gone a few hours. We can hang out after." I promised as I went to find clothes.

"We can work on music?" He asked, I know he wanted me to get the demo done.

"Yes. I promise." I felt his lips on my neck which made it really hard to get ready for work.

"You could always call in sick....." His breath on my ear made it so hard to get ready.

"Josh.....I have to go to work. I need to make money...." I moaned as he nipped at my ear.

"Are you sure you have to go to work?" He laughed in my ear as his hands rest on my hips.

"Yes! I need to work and you are a horny boy Joshua Ramsay!" I laughed as I grabbed my clothes and rushed to the rest room.

I smiled as Josh was laying with Harley on my couch. She was content with him running his hand over her head.

"I'll be back in a few hours...." I looked for a response. All I got was a wave.

I had fun at work. I played some Marianas Trench and some Simple Plan. I took some calls and gave some tickets away for Anami Vice. I was on my way home when I got a call from my mom. I was shocked she had my number. My grandfather must have given it too her. I ignored it until I got home. I didn't want to deal with my parents.

A few weeks went by and I was in the studio with Josh. We were almost done with the demo. I was on the last song but it wasn't clicking.

I was in the booth singing when Josh got a call. I kept on singing and watched his face.

I'm speechless and faded

It's too complicated

Is this how the story ends

Nothing but friends?

'Cause you don't see me

And you don't want me

And you don't need me

The way I wish you would

The way I wish you would

This is the place in my heart

This is the place where I'm falling apart

Isn't this just where we met?

And is this the last chance that I'll ever get? 

I wish I was lonely

Instead of just only clear and see-through

And not enough to you

"It's a great song, we need to rewrite some of it. Come on out." He said through the speaker. I nodded as I came out only to see my family.

"What the fuck?" I said as I stopped dead in my tracks.

"Your grandfather told us where you were. We didn't know you were doing so well." My mom gushed as she hugged me. I stood still, not wanting to move.

"No one said who was at the desk.....I thought it was Megan or something." Josh said as I walked over to him.

"What are you doing in Vancouver?" I asked, getting right to the point.

"We wanted to see how you were. Your grandfather said you were doing very well and you were dating someone and working on your music. We tried to call, you never answer your phone." My dad said.

"So you just show up?" I was a little more then pissed. Josh took to rubbing my back to try and calm me down.

"You make it hard to get in touch." My mother scolded me.

"Because I don't want you here! If I wanted you here I would have answered a call!" I spat.

"Who is that?" My little sister asked.

"I'm Josh Ramsay." He smiled at her.

"You look funny." She pointed out.

"It's my hair. I always get that." He laughed.

"Who is he and why is he touching you?" My dad asked.

"Because I'm dating him and sleeping with him!" I spat, I stormed out of the room leaving an awkward silence as I did.

As I ran out to my car I thought of how hard I had worked. How much I went through to get where I was. My family had no idea who I had been trying so hard to make my life my own. My family had no idea how much it hurt that I was away from them, how they had never even seen me play.

Once I got home I called Kenny and asked when the next open mic was. I was going to show my family how far I had come. Josh and I had worked on a new song and I wanted to try it out on people before I recorded it. I loved how much Josh wanted me to make this work. If only I was able to show my family.
