Drum Beats

Third Beat

The following weekend, Richard decided to go back to the bar to see Maine again. The thought of it as a one-night stand just made him crazy. He couldn't focus on his studies the whole week, heck, maybe he even failed an exam! He wanted more with Maine.

If it was even possible, maybe even a relationship?

When he entered, the band was already on stage and everybody were enjoying. He sat on the chair not too far from the door. Richard decided to wait for them to finish their song before approaching her.

But it looks like the universe doesn't want them to be together. Because after their song, Maine went down the stage and kissed a girl that was waiting for her.

Well that's new.

He couldn't move. Is she bisexual?

The girl broke off from kissing and talked to each other. Richard was thinking of a plan on how to approach her. Should I go and introduce myself? Should I flirt with her? No, I can't do that! I don't know how! Should I--no, wait! No more kisses for you young lady! That drummer is mine!

He walked fast towards them, grabbed Maine's hand (which was on the girl's ass, btw), and pulled her out of the bar.

"Hey asshole! Let go of me! You fuc--wait, Richard?" he then just noticed what he did. He let go of Maine's hand.

"Maine, I-I'm so sorry, I--"

"Why did you do that?"

"I-i don't k-know! I wasn't thinking! I just didn't want to see you kissing others!"

"Wait," Maine said, a teasing smile playing on her lips, "are you jealous?"

"You're bisexual?!"

"You didn't notice that when we first met?! I was first met?! I was flurting with a girl infront of you for crying out loud!"

I didn't notice becayse your hotness was in the way, he thought.

"So were you jealous?"

"Yes," he finally admitted.

"Why?"

"Because...I think I like you. And I want to get to know you better."

"Hmm..." she tapped her feet on the ground. She put her hand in his back pockets and looked at him. "Sorry, 'Chard, I can't commit to one," then she started walking back to the bar.

"Why?"

"Because I'm already committed to everyone!" she shouted when she was far enough from him.
