Red Diamond Rocker

Red Diamond Rocker: Chapter 3

Two Days Later:

A roadie held out a towel to Lilyanne to wipe the sweat that was dripping down her body. She traded her guitar for the towel. Wiping her face and neck quickly, she smiled at the rest of the band. That had been one of their best shows to date. The crowd had been amazing. She would never get tired of people singing her lyrics back at her.

The lead singer, Tilly, slung her arm across her shoulder, "That was wild! I think that was one of our best shows yet."

Tilly beamed at her. The post show high was written all over her face.

Lilyanne grinned, "Yeah, I think so, too. It's really fun to headline our own shows. It's such a different vibe than opening for a bigger band. We know that they are our fans. It makes all the difference."

Tilly and Lilyanne strolled into the green room. They both moved to find their phones. Tilly immediately called her boyfriend, Cam, who was the drummer of Stone's Throw. Lilyanne had never seen Tilly so happy or boy crazy. Tilly and Cam had a rocky beginning but since they had worked things out, Tilly had been head over heels in love with him.

Lillyanne had never seen her so happy about a man before. She had never seen her even pursue a guy, except Matt James, the lead singer of Stone's Throw. But even then, it wasn't a good match, it was something to do for entertainment. An idea of love or a fascination with wanting what was someone else's.

Lillyanne was glad that whole mess was behind them. When Tilly finally confessed why they had gotten kicked off the Stone's Throw tour, she had been appalled. But, it all worked out in the end. They ended up with a smaller tour in the countries where their music had taken off.

Looking down at her phone, Lillyanne scrolled through text messages from her parents, friends from LA, and an ex-lover who wanted to reconnect. "Not likely." Lillyanne muttered under her breath.

She saw a curious message lingering in her Instagram. She clicked it open to find a message from Sem.

"Coming into Reykjavik tonight. Meet up for a drink?"

Lilyanne beamed. She hadn't been able to get him off her mind the past few days. It was so nice just to meet someone who wasn't a fan and just a decent human being.

She wrote him back, "Yeah, I could meet up in about an hour."

Sem: Great, where should we meet?

Lillyanne: Let's meet in the bar of my hotel.

After sending him the address to the hotel, Lilyanne grabbed her stuff, said goodbye to the girls and opted to skip the afterparty.

By the time she had walked 12 minutes to her hotel, she had approximately 30 minutes to get ready before Sem was due to arrive. That was going to be a tight squeeze. She wasn't really a girly girl but she wanted to look nice for this beguiling stranger.

Throwing her knapsack on the bed, and began to strip as she moved into the bathroom. She brushed her teeth while the shower was warming up. She looked at herself in the mirror. Long red hair, green eyes, perky breasts, lean stomach, curvy hips and thighs. Not bad, she decided. She was going to knock Sem dead when she saw him.

She hopped in the shower to wash off the sweat from the show, quickly rubbing herself down with her favorite lavender scented soap.

Lilyanne quickly dressed, noticing she had less than 10 minutes to get her ass in gear and downstairs. She brushed out her hair and applied some makeup and her statement red lip.

Seeing she was 5 minutes late, she grabbed her purse, room key and made her way to the elevator.

The elevator opened into a modern looking hotel lobby. It was very scandinavian looking, with efficient use of furniture, neutral colors and a sleek look. A very high end IKEA look.
