Music From my Heart

Chapter 13

He pulled back. The look in eyes were deeper. I could see how much he loved me and how much passion there was in his eyes. We walked back into the bed space. He closed the curtains and we began making out again. At first we were just laying next to each other when he moved me to lay on top of him. We continued it and he pulled back. I looked deeply into his eyes and he looked deeply into my eyes. 

"I love you more than I could ever express," he whispered. 

I looked at and softly smiled. "I love you more than anything too," I whispered. 

He softly smiled and let me move next to him again. I was slightly blushing but I cuddled up close to him. One of my legs over one of his and my arm across his chest. He had one arm around my back. I soon easily fell asleep. It's odd how this time when cuddled up to him felt a little different than the times before. I fell asleep, feeling safe, secure, love, comfort, and all the nice emotions a person has when that special person holds them. 

Once morning came, neither of the other two band members cared to be quiet. I woke up. Axel slept like a log. I climbed out of his grip and out of the bed. After being on tour with them, it makes sense that Axel was a heavy sleeper. I went over to sit down. The driver had come back on the bus. 

"Everyone get seated," he called.

I went to be with Axel since I didn't feel comfortable being alone with the band members. I don't know why I wasn't just didn't feel comfortable to me. I went up to cuddle up to him. He slowly woke up. 

"Angel?" he whispered. 

"Yea," I said softly.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yea why?" I responded.

"Good," he held me tightly.

I stayed close him smiling a little. He was asleep again. I smiled again and could tell the tour bus was driving again. For the entire ride I just stayed close to him. We were riding for a couple hours before we stopped at a place to eat.

"Where are we?" I asked Ace.

"I think we are in Kentucky," he said in a questionable tone.

"It's actually Nashville, Tennessee," Jake came over to clarify.

"Been on the bus to come from Illinois to Tennessee," I said smiling a little nervous.

"Dont tell me you're one the types that get car sick!" Ace said quickly taking a step back.

I laughed a little nervous. Axel went up behind me and walked me over to a place where no one could see me. It was behind a tree as he stood nearby watching for people. It was like he ways my personal body guard. Once I got finished throwing up my guts I went over to him.

"Better now?" he asked.

"I think so..." I said a little tired and weak now.

He made me throw my arm over his shoulder as he put his arm around my waist. I put some weight on him as I walked into the restaurant with the other guys. We all ate and had a few conversations. Axel seemed really energetic with his friends. I was happy to see him like this. After a few hours, we got back on the bus.

"We are heading to the hotel," the band's manager came on to say.

"We have a show here tonight right?" Ace asked excited.

"Yes that's right," she said smiling.

Axel had an expression that he was thinking deeply. I couldn't tell what he had on his mind and I wasn't sure if I wanted to know. Suddenly he jumped in the air with a finger pointing up.

"Think Angel and I could do a duet?" He asked ecstatic.

"I don't even know if she can sing," the manager said.

"Oh trust me, she can sing," he smiled then turned to me. I was frozen. My anxiety level was high and I might have went into a state of shock. "Angel?" I fell back and almost passed out. Axel caught me. I was looking around letting my eyes wonder as my head came back. "Angel, are you okay?"

"Yea I guess so," I said looking at him.

"So can you really sing?" Ace asked.

"Ace!" Axel quickly jumped angry at how Ace acted without regards of me.

"What? I just asked a simple question," he said.

"Yea, I guess I can sing," I said slowly sitting up.

"Can you sing for us?" James asked.

I stood up. I went to grab my guitar. There was no way in hell I was going to sing without my guitar. I went on and began playing. Ace and James expression quickly changed to surprise. I closed my eyes and let the music take me.

It's halfway after midnight
I'm left here alone
A broken beating heart
Pieces falling as time passes
You left me this way, baby
Ooooohhhh wooooaaahhhh

I looked at everyone. They began to applaud happily. The manager nodded.

"She can sing with you Axel," she said.

"If I sing I have to play my guitar," I said.

"We can make that happen, right?" Axel asked. 

"I think so, its just an acoustic guitar," the manager said. 

I smiled and Axel ended up hugging me tightly and picked me up.  I held him as he spun and I laughed. It was a sweet way to show his affection. I was happy to be able to sing with him. Itll be my first time on a stage too. I was pretty excited about it. 

That night, as I was cuddled up to Axel, he was stroking my hair out of my face sweetly. 

"Are you excited for next week?" he asked.

"Next week?" I responded confused.

"The manager scheduled you to join us next week," he said smiling. 

I nearly jumped and hit my head of the bunk above me. 

"Are you serious?" I asked, extremely excited.

"Yes," he said and kissed me. I was smiling for multiple reasons. The kiss was so sweet, the concert was my chance for a lot of things, and my life was finally going the way I wanted it too. Everything was perfect. I kept the kiss going and moved to a make out session again.
