You Only Live Once

Chapter 17: Knock Me Down

We are at the stadium where the show is supposed to be at. It's ginormous, the stage is huge and there are  lights streaming from one side across the other.

I grab Anthony's hand and he gives me a reassuring look.

"You're going to have fun today. It's gonna blow your mind ."

I grin and we continue walking until we reach a door , which reads "Dressing Rooms ."

We open the door and everyone goes inside.

When we all enter this mysterious room or hallway, we start to walk again.

Then we turn left, and there it is.

The "Red Hot Chili Peppers Dressing room."

Flea smirks at me seeing my reaction.

I roll my eyes again for the millionth time .

I open the door, stunned by what I was seeing.

The room was absolutely huge. It contained a large plasma tv, food(all kinds), music stuff(Guitar equipment , drums stuff) , sofas, and a fridge.

I get an idea. "Guys , let me take a photo for memories."

They all agree. They pose and I pull out my phone to take the picture.

I show them the picture and turn my attention to the guitars on the wall.

Holy shit. Fenders, and all of the other types of guitars were here.

I look over at John and say, " John, are these all yours?"

He nods his head

"Yep. These are all mine. Usually when we have events like these, I ship all of my guitars over because you never know what'll happen." He responds with a slight chuckle.

"Can I try one of them? And I swear I'll put it right back."

Everyone laughs.

I cock my head , confused.

"What? Did I say something funny?"

John shares a look with the rest of the guys. They all nod.

"Sure you can play, but you gotta sing along. It's a rule."

I stare at Flea and Chad, they are currently laughing at me.

I hate singing in front of people.

I sigh and nod. I choose a shiny blue and white fender.

I get an amp and plug in the guitar.

I decide on playing "Under the bridge."

I give Anthony a bright smile. I start to strum and sing.

"Sometimes I feel like I dont have a partner, sometimes I feel like my only friend is the city I live in.." I stop to hear that Anthony and John have joined in with me.

I smirk at Anthony and start playing again.

"The city of angels lonely as I am together we cry, I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day."

We stop singing due to the intrusion of the sound check guy.

"Rhcp? It's time for the sound check."

I nod at the guys for them to go, but John says that he'll stay back a little to help me put his stuff back.

He closes the door and walks over to me.

I put the guitar back on the wall, and unplug the amp. John helps me putting the amp away.

After we finish , we just stand there.

"You have a unique voice Rose." John replies.

I smirk. "Well, if it weren't for me taking choir classes, it wouldn't be that way, huh?"

He comes closer and looks at me with regret.

"I'm really sorry I tried to kiss you yesterday. Really, I am."

I nod and sigh, "Yeah, I accept your apology. I know why you did it and you can always talk to me."

He cocks his head in confusion. "What do you mean?"

"Anthony told me about your ex girlfriend. I feel for you."

He smiles lightly. "Yeah, I really loved her. I was going through so much before you came along."

I give him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

I hear knocking and the sound check guy comes again.

"John , we gotta do sound check dude."

John rolls his eyes and says "Can we resume this later?"

I nod .

He leaves with the sound check guy and so do I.

*Later that night *

The concert was over. It was so fucking awesome!

The way that Anthony danced and sang was mesmerizing.

Flea was so into the music, and when he played he played with a passion.

John, well, he was in another world when he played. It was as if the only things that existed was him and his guitar, just incredible.

Chad was wild. Those drums definitely got a beating from him.

We all arrived in the tour bus at 8:30 due to signing.

Tony was really sweaty but I didn't care.

Everyone sat down somewhere and just relaxed. After all, it was a good day.

I went to the bed where me and Anthony usually sleeped, and layed down.

Tony went to go shower leaving me with just the guys.

Chad walks up to my bed. "Hey, doll. What did you think of our show?"

I sat up . "It was unbelievable. If I paid 1000 dollars for one ticket, it would've been worth it."

He beams a generous smile. "That means a lot. You seem tired I'll talk to you later."

He leaves.

I sink into a deep sleep. I have this alarming dream.

It starts off with me back at home, in my room reading a book. I hear a knock on my window.

I get up from my bed and walk over to the window to look who's there.

It's Anthony . I open the window for him and he comes into the room.

He starts to kiss my neck with lust, then reaches for my shirt.

He starts unbuttoning it , when the door opened.

It was my stepfather. Wilkylam.

He separates me and Anthony . He then starts to reach for Tony's throat and begins to strangle him.

His face turns red as the oxygen leaves his body.

I start to sob .

"Stop hurting him! Let him go , he didn't do anything wrong, you bastard!"

Wilkylam just smirks and continues to choke him.

Anthony's eyes close, meaning he's dead.
