Is it love? Grace's story 🔞 Adam or Owen?

The daggers

Adam's point of view 

After getting home dealing with a lecture off Owen for walking out this morning on our conversation he decided to join us at bar bars.

I arrive to Colin moaning okay, what's wrong with you know? You not have a good day after you sent me that message?

I messed up I say groaning, as I set up my drums, as the bar manager, Oliver comes to speak to us, 

hey guys, so after your set, I need to free up the stage, ermy. ... He looks down. 

What's the problem? Colin asks him.

An old producer asked to use the stage for another band, he is wanting to sign them again, but long story short he won't sign with out the lead singer and they talked her into playing tonight.

It's fine no worries I say, as he turns walking away.

Wonder who they are Colin says as matt comes back with 3 beers as coin looks at his phone which is being updated with texts.

Okay, do I ask who? I say joking, Colin doesn't answer he just types on his phone, matt looks at me shrugging his shoulders taking a sip if his beer.

Omg, shut no way, Colin says... staring at his phone, before turning to matt.

Did you know? He asks matt who looks at him like he's mad before he turns to me, Li appears huggings and greeting us, I hear her point to the bar where Doris us with a red head, who's that, I say standing up next to Colin.

As I see her turn smiling, David hugs her, shit, I say out loud not meaning to, matt nearly spits out his beer colin just stares.

I see her laughing with Doris, I can tell doris is annoyed at me, just from her look as she makes her way backstage.

I look over at grace as I see her, hugging talking and posing for pictures.

Colin leans next to me and whispers, did you know she's the lead singer and guitarist for the daggers?

I hear matt say, say that again, to colin looking confused.

I nod slowly, yeah but she's taking a break, she wasn't sure on signing a new contract.

I look over at grace as more fans, mainly male go and ask for pictures, autographs and give her their number, I feel jealous it's over powering as I see Owen look at me smirking, before he goes over and whispers something in her ear making her laugh.

Colin speaks you want her, go fix it we go in in 15 minutes, you have 5, or you will have yo wait till later. 

I see her moving backstage with drink in her hand towards Doris,who is still grinning at her.

Having fun? doris asks.

Nope, but it's part of being a musician, one reason I wanted time out, it's hectic.

Doris sees me coming and nods at me,I be back she tells leaving her alone.

She turns spotting me.

Great, she says, no longer smiling, as she tries yo kobe passed me, I grab her arm pulling her back pushing her into an empty dressing room.

I'm sorry, I tell her sincerely, please give me another chance.

She sighs, you have had 2 Adam, many more than anyone else, she shakes her head. What do you want of me Adam? Hmmmm...The fact I'm known in the music world could help you up the ladder, or you just looking for a one night stand, I can guarantee theirs plenty if girls already out their (she points) that would give you that.

I don't want that, I don't want them I say as she steps back further, her back now hitting the wall, my arms either side of her head. 

I like you, I want you, god dam it grace, I hit the wall with my right hand, making her jump. Sorry, I.....

She grabs my chin, so I look at her, soo what do you want with me Adam?  I thought we had fun today, you seem to blow hot and cold on me.

I'm scared I whisper looking into her eyes, I'm about to kiss her as colin knocks 5 minute call Adam, get ready.

Go she tells me, we will. .. talk later, I kiss her, hoping she will kiss me back and she does, I pull her out with me before she leaves me backstage she says break a leg.

Grace's point of view

My heart is beating so fast I don't know what's wrong with me, how the hell does he have this effect on me like no one else.

I make my way to meet matt, and Lisa at the front of the stage, matt whispers, nice look princess.

As I dance I watch Adam beating his drums in his own world, I love watching him, he looks free, happy like a child.

As they come up to the last few sets, I make my way backstage, nerves now getting to me, time seems to fly, and we need to decide the order in which were playing our songs.

Doris comes off stage smiling, followed by Adam then colin, I congratulate them, as colin pulls me aside, knowing fans won't come back here this evening their us extra security on with us playing next.

Why didn't you tell me kitten? He whispers as I grin at him.

What fun would that be after all, I thought you would already have researched me? I wink at him as he growls, we will talk later he says, as he goes back up to remove his guitar and help matt move Adam drums ready for us to set up. 

I go to our dressing room as doris follows me in, I start to pace, she grabs my hands, breath just breath.

I need a cigarette I tell her trying not to laugh, 6 months without and kow I need one.

David enters, here princess, you have time, the fans can wait not like the band can start without you, I grab yhe pack doris follows me out as we wait for everyone to set up.

As I re enter passing David the packet of cigarettes, I ask where is my guitar he points to dressing room but dangles the key in front is me for my box, no one else has touched it part from me moving the box.

I nod greatful.
