*1 month later*

 

I'd written only about two songs for the EP. But my music was getting more recognition, so it did make me excited about releasing the EP. The songs I did have written were called "Light Me Up" about my mom. And the second song is called "Heart". I was more than satisfied with the songs I did have written. But two isn't many at all, but  I  hadn't had much time since I started working. But being a  merchandiser was pretty fun. I got a lot of stuff for myself, and it's pretty neat making designs and handling the business. Unfortunately, I hadn't talked to Chris as much. He wasn't all too busy, but was in the studio as much as possible. Often I'd miss his phone calls, and then there's time differences, so I couldn't call whenever. It did get pretty miserable not talking to him as much as I want to, but hopefully I'll have him back in about 4 and a half months. So far though my new home was been great, Tony convinced me into getting my ears gauged. So far they're only at a size 8, I'd probably stretch them a bit, but not too much. I don't know why I never got gauges before, Chris had them, but never said much about them.  Hm, maybe I'll call Chris, I haven't even tried talking to him today. I called, but got no answer. Sigh. I decided to just try and work on another song before I start working.

-Chris's POV-

I woke up when I heard my cell phone ringing, I'd missed a call from Delilah. I let out a groan and rubbed my eyes. I hung out with some old friends of mine, and they had some drugs and stuff with them...and now I feel like shit. I know that Delilah didn't really mind if I smoke pot, but I wasn't sure how she felt about MDMA and stuff like that. Eh, I'll call her back later and get her opinion on it, hopefully she doesn't get too upset if she doesn't like it. But right now, I was going to sleep for another lifetime, and then go take a shower. I flopped the blanket back over me.

When I awoke, I called Lilah. She answered since she was on break. We talked for about 5 minutes or so, then she had to go. At least I got to talk to her some though.I really missed her like hell, and it was making me almost depressed to be away from her. She told me about how she got gauges, and I wished that I could have been there for that, I know it's only gauges but I want to be there for every moment in her life. I let out a deep breath. I dragged myself over to the shower, then got dressed and went to the studio. We finished tracking a second song today. So far we've been making good progress, I'm really proud of it so far. LoveDaze was just in a few days, and I was really excited. This year we made sure there's more variety in the music. So that kept my spirits up. But besides LoveDaze, I wanted to get out of Joplin. I mean I love being around my family, they keep me grounded. But I don't want to stay there for a long time. I just wanted to be with Delilah, that's what would make me genuinely happy.

-Delilah's POV-

 

After work I met up with Tony at a Subway, then went home. No one was home, I knew Mike was at get-together and I wasn't sure where Vic is. I started writing some music, but was interrupted when a drunk Mike came through the door. He stumbled in sloppily. A couldn't help but giggle a bit, then I helped him to his room. Then a few minutes later Vic came home, he seemed stressed, so I just left him alone. I heard guitar while I walked back to my room, probably Vic playing. After I wrote a few verses, I passed out.

"Morning Lilah." Vic said as I walked into the living room.

"Hey Vic. How was your night?" I asked taking a seat by him.

"Eh, alright I guess. Yours?"

"Fine, helped Mike get into bed last night, since he was so drunk." Vic nodded chuckling a bit. Then Tony and Jaime came in.

"Hey!" Tony and Jaime said in unison. I got up then gave them both hugs.

"So what brings you two here today?" Vic asked.

"Band meeting in like 30 minutes at the offices." Tony said.

"Oh yeah! I forgot, " Vic said in realization, "I'll wake up Mike." Vic said then walked off.

"You wanna come with us Lilah?" Jaime asked.

"Sure, I'll get dressed." I smiled. I went to go brush, my hair and left it down. Then I put on a green  baseball style shirt that said "Joplin" , from Chris, then put on some leather pants and boots. When I went back to the living room, I heard Mike pouting about Vic waking him up he was probably hungover. After Mike was some-what awake we left.

During their meeting I sat back in the corner, hardly listening, just with my headphones in, lightly humming the lyrics to "Immaculate Misconception". But once the song transitioned to "Creatures" I heard the word touring , then put my music on pause to listen to the meeting.

"So you guys will start touring October 12th and will go all over North America." Their manger said, while the guys just nodded. October? That's in about 2 months...but Chris won't be in LA by then, where am I supposed to go? Jaime gave me an "are you okay?" look, and I just gave a half smile. I didn't want to go back to my Mom. And my job didn't actually require me to have to do the merch. for tours. I figured that I'll just wait to get home to talk to the guys about it.

Once we were out in the parking lot, the guys were just talking about excited they were about tour. I then interjected.

"So! You guys are leaving to tour soon, great for you all! But...where am I supposed to go?" I asked. The guys had a face of remembrance.

"Um, you could tour with us? It'd be fun! Sleeping with Sirens will be with us too! And Tonight Alive and Hands Like Houses!" Vic said cheerfully.

"But what about work? And when Chris is finished with the album? I mean, I could get a shitty apartment or something to hold me over til Chris comes."

"Hey, I'm your boss. And if I say don't work, you don't work and come on tour with me!" Jaime said seriously, putting his hand on my shoulder, but I busted out laughing.

"Ha, yeah! We're your bosses, so we say come on tour with us! And you could just fly back to LA when Chris is finished his album." Tony pitched in, smiling. It wasn't a bad idea, and it would be pretty fun touring.

"Okay, I will!" I said pulling them into a group hug.

"Oh, and you're going to perform every other night, okay?" Vic said smiling.

"Really! Thanks you all, you're the greatest!" I cheered. I swear, it's amazing having famous friends, that give you great career opportunities. Then we all headed home. I called Chris and told him the plan, he didn't seem to mind since I wasn't leaving til about two months. I wanted to talk to Chris longer but he sounded tired. I really missed him like crazy, and it didn't help that he left me, while I'm so in love with him. But hopefully he'll visit soon or I'll visit soon.

"Delilah! Look at the this!" Mike said running into my room handing me his Iphone. Puzzled, I took his phone and looked at it. It was a picture tweeted of Stacy at a bar in Palm Springs dancing on a table, with little clothes on. I started busting out laughing at it. I always wanted to confront Stacy, but had no idea where I'd find her.

"Mike, get your car keys. We're going to Palm Springs!" I said jumping out of bed. Mike gave me a evil smirk and we got into his car.

A/N: Ooh! What shall happen when Delilah finds Stacy? :3 And what will Delilah's reaction be about Chris using drugs? ;D And the songs "Light Me Up" and "Heart" are both by the Pretty Reckless. You can probably tell that I really like that band. ^.^
