Chapter 6

I think I heard Josh talk about someone named Matt. His name sounded familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it. So I just listened to their conversation. "So did you talk to Steve about the band Matt?"

"Yeah, he doesn't want to do it anymore"

"Traitor"

Then I remembered where I heard his name "Matt! You're the guitarist of Ramsay fiction!"

"Thanks for reminding me doll"

Wow. That sounded stupid. "No, that's where I know you from, duh"

"Oh so we have a fan?" He said excitedly

"Her uncle works at 604 records" Josh butted in. "Okay Matt, we need new members and a new name for the band. They have to be able to sing and play their instrument"

"Well then let's get off our lazy asses and find some new band mates!" Matt shouted with enthusiasm.

We all went back to Joshes house that was left with nobody inside again. Matt went to the chair and started flicking through channels on the television and Josh was reading the newspaper on the couch. I couldn't help but burst out laughing. "What's so funny?" Josh snapped.

"Its just the way your reading the newspaper and he's watching TV. You look like an old couple." I mumbled gasping for air.

Everything went quiet and back to normal after I stopped laughing. It was nice. But then Josh jumped up and started shouting which broke the silence "shut up Josh, what the hell are you screaming about?"

"A-a-a drummer! Right here in Vancouver! Look at this add in the newspaper"

We both gazed over his shoulder to see the article, then I started to read it

"So are you gonna call this guy and ask him to join the band?"

"Yes! He's one of the missing pieces of the puzzle"

Josh dialed the number while me and Matt looked at the ad. "Ian Casselman, Drummer, wanting to join a band. He looks promising." I said

"Yup. A drummer is all we need. And maybe a bassist, and a new band name" Matt suggested. Then we turned our attention back to Josh.

"Okay, thank you, bye." Josh finished up on the phone.

"So..." me and Matt said at the same time.

"I think we have our drummer" Josh sang out

We all jumped up and down like idiots, screaming and hugging.

"We have to meet him tomorrow" he added. "I'm excited"

"Me too" Matt squeaked.

"Okay guys, now we need a name" Josh said.

"Let's not rush. We need to get our drummer, make sure he's good." Matt pointed out.

"Okay. Its already 9:30, time to hit the sack. Let's go Whitney" josh said

"Wait, what, why?" I sputtered

"We need a good rest for meeting Ian tomorrow " Then he came over and whispered in my ear "we probably won't get much sleep anyway"

"Fine" then I stomped off to his room like a little kid.

"I'm staying here Josh. I got the couch" Matt said to Josh before he trotted behind me "oh, and keep the moaning as quiet as possible"

"Shut up Matt" Josh hissed

I was already cuddled in the blankets before Josh came in. He went over to dresser and put on some pajamas or something I guess. I wasn't paying attention, well not at least not until Josh grabbed my feet at the bottom of the bed. He jumped on top of me with his legs straddling either side of my waist. "Josh! What do you think you are do-"

"Shhhh!" He gently cupped his hand over my mouth "Matt said not to be too loud, he's sleeping on the couch"

"Oh. Sorry Matt" I said in a scream whisper.

We looked at each other and started bursting out laughing. "Shut the fuck up in there, some people like sleep retards" Matt shouted from the living room

"How does he hear us? We are in the basement" I asked Josh

"Ears on that guy like an elephant"

Josh rolled off me so he was lying beside me. There was an awkward silence after that. I rolled over to look at him, I rested my head on my hand and my elbow on the pillow "Josh"

"Yes Whitney?"

"Why do you hang out with me?"

He rolled over and rested his hand on his head, the same way that I was. "Because you are fun"

"Do you like me because my uncle works at 604 records, or because you feel bad about almost hitting me with your car?"

"Wha-" he went to sit up quickly but hit his forehead off the headboard. He griped his forehead and grind his teeth in pain "Whitney, that's ridiculous. Even if your uncle didn't work there, I'd still like you. Even if I didn't almost hit you with my car, and somehow we met, I'd still like you. I really really like you" he said. we are both sitting cross legged facing each other. Then he came in closer to whisper to me "maybe you would be my real girlfriend"

I looked at him, still overwhelmed by his beautiful speech. "Josh, of course I will be your girlfriend" I sighed in relief.

Josh sighed and smiled in relief. He was breathing heavily. He moved in for a kiss, not a stupid little peck, a long passionate kiss. It eventually turned into a all out make out session. His hand made its way up my back, and he gently laid my head down on the pillow. His breath felt so good down my neck. "I love you Whitney."

"I love you Josh" I rolled the words around in my mouth, they felt so good coming off my tongue.

"Didn't I tell you to keep the moaning down!" Matt shouted from the bathroom. Nobody replied to him. Josh just moaned louder to piss him off we eventually went to sleep but I would never forget this night. Josh held me tight the whole night. I really felt Josh loved me like he said. And I loved him just as much.
