Lady (Rated M)

Dreams Unwind

 
    The warmth of his hand on her back sent a tingle down her spine, glancing up at him.

   Lindsey grinned down at her, placing a swift kiss on the tip of her nose.

  Stevie scrunched her face, glancing around to make sure no one was paying attention.

   Stretching up on her toes, she planted a soft kiss on his lips, her cheeks burning when he smiled down at her.

"We're on in five Buckingham."

Stevie instantly pulled away, quickly clearing her throat. She tried to ignore the obvious look Mick was giving the two of them.

"Good luck."

Lindsey grinned down at her. "It's not about luck babe."

She rolled her eyes, accepting his kiss. She watched as the band filed on to stage, making her way to the side to get a good view.

It wasn't long before the band had started, Stevie swaying  along to the music, her head bobbing along with the beat as they played out their encore.

   She was infatuated, like always, by him. The way his fingers moved slickly across the fret board, the faces he made deeply lost in the momentum of his music.

   Her heart was beating a tad faster than normal, her cheeks blushing red. Her attention was drawn away by a stage hand, stepping by her, stepping aside so she wasn't in the way.

   The music had faltered the tiniest bit, Christine's voice abruptly stopping mid song.

  Stevie looked up, seeing the British blonde darting from behind her piano, a hand covering her mouth as she darted off the stage and pushed past her.

   The band had stopped, all looking at one another perplexed. The crowd had started to grumble, and she watched as Lindsey rushed over to Mick, seeing them talking. There heads nodded as they talked in harsh whispers. Her breathing hitched when Mick looked over at her, nodding his head.

  She was confused, watching as Lindsey rushed over to her. She panicked when he grabbed her, dragging her towards the stage.

  "What are you doing?"

"You're singing Rhiannon."

Stevie planted her feet, jerking him back as she shook her head furiously. "No!"

"Stevie come on!"

"You don't even know the song!"

"Yes I do, and the rest of the band will follow my lead."

She didn't have a choice, Lindsey dragging her on to the stage as she stumbled behind him. He dragged her to the microphone, Stevie petrified.

She froze, looking out at the thousands of people in front of her. She looked over at Lindsey who gave her a reassuring nod.

She heard the opening riff to her own song, her heart pounding.

When did he learn it?

Mick and John had improvised, quickly finding a beat and bass riff to fill the guitar notes.

She was stunned, glaring out at the thousands of people, black shadowed by all the lights.

Lindsey nudged her shoulder, leaning in to her ear. "Come on, you can do it." He whispered in her ear.
