Sisters Of The Moon

Chapter 6

                          Everything with Stevie was settled now I had to talk to Lindsey. I was dreading it, of course I didn't want to talk to him. I didn't want to be anywhere near him, but we had the band. Stevie invited him over one day and left us alone to talk.

     "Okay listen, Lindsey I'm sorry I haven't talked to you since, you know." I said quietly while I sat down.

     Lindsey nodded, "Its okay Em, I understand." He patted my knee, "We're friends its okay!"
 
     I smiled at him and leaned over to hug him. He embraced me but as soon as we separated I knew something else was on his mind.

     "What is it Linds?" I wanted this conversation to end. I wanted to forget the last few weeks of my life, and I feared what he was going to say.

    Lindsey ran his hands through his curls, "I know this is crazy, but after these last few weeks and what's happened it made me realize something."
I swallowed the lump in my throat as he continued, "I want to be more than friends Emily, I think you're just amazing and so beautiful."

    I stared at him, I knew he was going to say that. Did I have feelings for Lindsey? I don't know I just always pushed them away.
I stood up, "I'm sorry I need to think-I-I-I cant do this now." I walked out feeling terrible, leaving one of my closest friends behind.

                         Stevie stood up from the couch she was sitting on as I entered the living room, "How did it go?" She asked.
  
    I shook my head, "He wants to date me." 

    Stevie gasped, "What the hell?"

     I ran a hand through my hair, "I don't want to date him."

     Stevie sat down on the couch, wrapping her shawl around her. "Its not about that Em, do you love him or like him or anything?" 

    I sat down next to her, "I don't know, I don't want to date him."

   Stevie grinned, "Yes, but what's in here?" She pointed to my chest.

                                Weeks had passed and I was ignoring Lindsey's calls, which wasn't good since the tour was going to pick back up today. I didn't want to talk to him, and I didn't want to think about what he said. I wanted to forget I knew him.

   Stevie and I walked into the tour bus, Christine and Mick were there to greet us, John nodded to us while he read his book, and Lindsey just played his guitar. Stevie nudged me with her elbow, I shook my head. I wasnt going to talk to him right now, not yet.

    I sat down next to Stevie, she leaned over to whisper something to me. "You recognize that song?"

   I looked up and listened intently to the song Lindsey was playing across from me, it then hit me.

                                 It was after Lindsey had saved me from my dad in 1974, we were back at the Nicks family home. I was still pretty upset about what happened earlier that evening, I sat on the bed, Stevie was in the shower. It was just me alone, then there was a knock on my door. I got up and opened the door, it was Lindsey holding his guitar.

    "Oh hey." Lindsey whispered.

    I smiled, "Why are you here?"

   Lindsey looked down, "I-um wanted to know if I could come in. I wanted to play you something I just wrote."

  I lead him into the room, he sat down on the bed and I settled down next to him.

  Lindsey fumbled with the guitar, "I figured you'd like this, I started to write it when we got back."

  The most beautiful song I ever heard started to play from the golden brown guitar as his long fingers strummed on the strings.

  When Lindsey stopped, I hugged him. "Thank you, I really needed that."

  Lindsey blushed, "It was no problem, I'm happy I helped." He pushed the piece of hair behind my ear and started to lean in, when the door opened. Stevie walked in with a towel wrapped around her body.

  "Oh hi Lindsey!" Stevie exclaimed as she dried her hair with another towel. "What are you doing here?"

  Lindsey stood up and grabbed his guitar, "I was just playing a new song for Emily, I'll be going now. Goodnight Stevie, goodnight Emily."

                                     I came back to my thoughts, "Yeah Stevie, I do recognize it."
I had to talk to him, Lindsey was playing that on purpose.

  "Lindsey?" I asked as I stood up.

  He looked up, "Yes?"

  I stuck my hands in my pockets, "Lets talk somewhere else."

  He nodded and we walked to another room, "So what's this about?" He asked as he sat down on the couch.

  "You know what this is about." I grumbled. He nodded and leaned in to kiss me, I pulled away. "Listen! Stop it!" I yelled. 

  "You cant tell me there's no feelings." Lindsey defended.

  "No! There are no feelings! You're my friend! You're my band mate that's it!" I yelled.

  "Emily." He said calmly, "How long do you think you can lie to yourself?"

  I glared at him and just like that, Lindsey smashed his lips into mine and this time I didn't pull away, When we finally did separate I gasped, "Oh fuck it, I want to be with you." Lindsey shut the door as we started to rip off our clothes.
