Andy decided Toni had had enough time to cool off and followed her. He walked in to the changing room and was met by the rest of the band.

"Hey, you two done makin’ out." Marty said with a big smile in his face.

"Have you seen Toni?" Andy asked, ignoring the question.

"What happened?" Ash asked, standing up and walking to Andy. "I told her I have a girlfriend."

"Shit!" Marty's chin dropped. "Stay here, I'll find her."

"I’m coming I need to know she's ok."

"No offence, dude, but if your around she ain't gonna be found."

"I can't just sit here."

"Then go home. We'll let you know when we find her."

"Okay but as soon as you find her call me." Andy turned and walked out of the room leaving three men looking very concerned.

Toni got up and walked across the car park, there was a little park with a few swings and seats and a small pond across the from the club. She heard the club door slam and watched Andy walk around the club. " How could I have been so stupid, of course he has a girlfriend. You can be so stupid sometimes, Toni." she told herself. She took a deep breath, stood up and walked back to the club. She walked into the dressing room to find the guys sitting on the sofas. "So you guys ready to rehearse?"

"Sure..... You okay?" Jerry asked, drumming on his knees.

"Absolutely fine!"

"Good! Let's do this!" Marty said, "But I have to do something first."

"Marty?" Toni purred, "If you call that asshole I swear I'll quit and join a Britney Spears fan club."

"Geeeez, ok, but making threats like that is just mean."

Toni smiled. Her defences were up and she had no intention of letting them down again.

Andy got home and fell onto the couch. Why did he say that? Why didn't he just tell her how he felt? He broke up with his girlfriend weeks ago. "Dammit Andy, you're an idiot! " he said to himself. His brain found the answer he was looking for, he'd said it so he would't get hurt again. He didn't want to get close to anyone, not yet. He should tell her the truth. Would she let him? "FUCK!" he shouted to himself. Picking up his phone he dialed Toni's number. No answer. Did he really think she would? He found Marty's number and called it.

Toni had felt her phone vibrate. She took it out of her pocket and looked at the number. Pressing 'ignore' she put it back in her pocket. She heard Marty's ring tone so without looking she said into the mike, "Answer that phone and I swear I'll cut off your balls and play tennis with them!"

"Ouch!" came three voices at the same time.

"Ok, are we ready to go?" Toni said after turning her phone off completely.

It was almost show time and Toni missed the big stage. That gig was the biggest they had done and now they were back to clubs. The gig was going well until she saw the familiar tall silhouette at the bar. He turned and smiled. She pulled her eyes away and concentrated on the song. They finished their set and she noticed Andy had gone. They came offstage and walked into their dressing room. Andy was already sitting on the couch. "We really need to have a word with security. "Toni said.

"Toni we need to talk."

"No, we don't."

"Toni, give him a chance." Jerry said in a low voice, it earnt him a dagger glare. "C'mon guys I think we need a drink."

The three men walked out and smiled.

"Toni?"

"What?!"

"Come and sit down, I have something to say."

"I think you said enough."

"That's where you're wrong." He nodded his head as a second request for her to sit down.

Toni sat opposite him, legs and arms crossed.

"So, what do you want to talk about?"

"I'm sorry."

"Doesn't matter."

"It does, I hurt you and I never meant for that to happen." Noticing that he had her attention, he continued. " I've just come out of a relationship and I wasn't ready to go through it again." She had that 'keep going' look on her face so he took his chance, " I knew that we'd only have a few days together then I'd be leaving, who knows if we'd meet again."

"So you told me you had a girlfriend so we couldn't get close?"

"Yes."

"So why are you here?"

Before he could answer, the door flew open and there was a loud bang. Toni jumped up off the couch as she saw Benny in the doorway with a gun in his hand. She didn't realise Andy was next to her his hand around her wrist pulling her, protectively, behind him.

"B....Benny?" she stuttered when she had found her voice.

"I'm not after you this time, bitch! You took my heart and crushed it so I'm going to show you how it feels. You!" he pointed at Andy. "You're coming with me."

"NO!" Toni screamed as Andy moved away.

"Don't move!" Benny pointed the gun in her direction.

"Don't worry." Andy said in a low voice before he got to Benny and was dragged away.

"ANDY?!" She screamed as she ran to the door, but it was too late, they had gone.

She ran to the door that lead to the car park and flung it open. They'd gone. Tears fell down Toni's cheeks. Now she wished she had just told him how she felt. That she cared for him so much that her heart hurt. She felt a hand on her shoulder and her instincts kicked in as she turned and pulled back her fist.

"WAIT!" shouted Ash's voice.

Toni stopped and lowered her hands. "What the fuck is going on Toni?" He asked with concern.

"Benny. He's got Andy."

"That mother..."

"I know. So what do we do. If we call the police, god knows what he'll do." a thought hit her and her eyes widened. "my phone!"

They ran to the dressing room and Toni grabbed her phone turning it back on again. "where are the others?"

"where do you think? They should have seats reserved at the bar!"

"ok, so they don't need to know, right?"

"ok." ash knew better than to argue. At that moment Tony's phone rang. She looked at him with eyes that said, 'here we go.' and pressed the answer button.
