From Two Different Worlds

Please Let Me Be Your Friend!

Angie POV:

    After the show me and the band start to pack up the equipment and start to load it into the car. Once we were finally done we head into the venue to see the guys waiting for us. "Angie you were great up there!" I hear Lola as she ran up to me and giving a hug, I start to smile and she says this "Thank you Lola and thank you for the rose means a lot." She gives me her sweet smile which always made me smile everyone said I did a awesome job. As we start going to other stage I feel someone pull my arm a bit it was Mike "Can I talk to you for a moment please." I nod my head yes. We waited until everyone left to the other stage, I look at Mike and I can tell that he has a lot on his mind 'I guess this is the time he going tell me he doesn't want be my friend no more.' I thought to myself which made me even more sad then already am I wasn't expecting a amazing day for me and my band turn into to a terrible one. 

Mike POV:

     I watch our friends go to see the other shows when I finally let go of Angie's arm, she turns to face me and I can tell that she was nervous like me. I turn to the patio and see that there are few seats open I told her let's go and seat down. As we sat down I was trying to think of the words in my head, until my thoughts were interrupted by what Angie said.

Angie: I don't think we should be friends Mike.

Me: What are you talking about?

Angie: I think that us not being friends will help the issue between you and Anna. I didn't mean to cause a rift between you too.

    I looked at Angie with wide eyes she really thinks this is her fault that me and Anna are fighting. I grab her hands and I can see that she starting to cry, I start to wipe her tears away from her cheeks before it begins ruining her makeup. She looks at me and I see sadness in her eyes which hit me hard, I looked down to ground because her eyes were hitting me like bullets. 

Me: Angie this issue between me and Anna is not your fault at all, ever since we got separated we can't see eye to eye anymore. I like having you as a friend you are like breeze of fresh new air in me and the band's life. 

Angie: *Wipes away the tears* You really mean that Mike? 

Me: * Looks at Angie* I do really mean it to be honest the words to said to be yesterday hit me hard as if you broke down all the walls I build around to protect me from getting hurt again. For that Angie I thank you I forgot what it was like to be me again, I don't want our friendship to end because my ex wife can't keep her jealousy in check. 

Angie: I want be your friend too Mike only friends I have are my roommates, Lola and Max here meeting you guys few days back was amazing experience and it made me happy you guys still wanted hang out with me. 

   It made me happy to hear that Angie still wants to be my friend, I look at her and I can tell by her eyes she wasn't sad anymore but glad that I choose to continue to be her friend then not e friend at all. We both agree to head where everyone was at, as we enter the room a ska band was playing and I had to admit they were really good. I see Angie's friend Lola grabbing her hands and they started dancing to the music. I feel a hand on my shoulder I turn to see it was Chester "You guys good now?" I smiled at Chester and told him that me and Angie are good now. I turn to face the crowd then I notice a guy talking to Angie which did not look good. Before I could do anything Chester hold me back and tells me he got this handle, I watch him start walking to where Angie was at. 

Angie POV: 

  As I was dancing with Lola I hear my name being called out I turn to see who was calling me and it was my ex 'Crap! How did he know I was here!' He started to walk towards me and Lola "What do you want Tony?" I asked him in a stern voice he tries to give me a hug which I back away from him. "Please Angie let's talk I really miss you!" Before I could respond I feel someone placing their arm around shoulder I see it is Chester. "Can I help you with something dude?" I hear Chester asking my ex "Look I just want talk to Angie that is all okay so I suggest you step aside." I can feel Chester bringing me closer to him "Nope can't do that dude you see her new boyfriend is my best friend and we both agree that you don't have the right to talk to Angie so beat it!" With that my ex left and I can feel the grip of my shoulder disappear I looked at Chester and thanked him, he gives me smile "No problem Angie if that dude keeps giving you issues you let me know okay?" I nod my head yes we all agree to head back to where everyone was standing.  As I walk up the stairs I can see Mike waiting for us I couldn't help but to blush when I saw him smile at me. Chester had a idea of us taking pictures, I asked Mike if I could take a picture with him and agree to which made me happy. 

Mike POV: 

    It was starting get late so we all said goodbye to each other, Angie waved at us goodbye while we were walking to the car I couldn't help but starting to get sad "Don't worry man you will see her soon I promise." I hear Dave all I could do is nod my head yes, while we were walking I hear my phone going ding I reach for my phone and see it was a text from Angie. I open the text to see the picture we took as a group near the bar at the venue. I start to smile to see all the pictures, then I turn to see the picture that me and Angie took together "No offense Mike but you and Angie look like a cute couple." I hear Joe behind me I do agree with him on that but I really just want be friend with Angie for the time being I don't want rush into something and get hurt again. "Say you think we can have come over the studio and maybe help her band do some recording?" I asked the guys "That sounds like a good idea man! Maybe that will help the band out a bit." I hear Joe I look at Chester and Dave they both agree with Joe on the idea, I text Angie to give me a call tomorrow. In the car driving home I kept looking at the picture of me and Angie standing  next to each other 'Maybe it could turn into something more but, for now friends so I can know her pain behind her songs.'
