Star Crossed Lovers

Chapter 16: Stalker

It's been a couple days since I last seen Kaley and Tobias is still on tour. I haven't talked to Judi for a bit but she's got a busy life.

I've only just woken up and my mind is already spinning with thoughts. Ughh, what to do, what to do?
I walk around the house and realize moms at work too.
"Great, could this day get anymore boring?" I ask myself while walking into the living room.
I could start a movie marathon or another show but I don't think I can handle another series after The 100.

After a while of sitting and thinking my phone goes off. Its a message from Judi surprisingly

Judi:THERE'S A NEW RECORD STORE OPEN IN TOWN, I CAN'T GO TODAY BUT IF YOUR NOT BUSY YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT AND TELL ME IF IT'S GOOD OR NOT??

I grin, a record store, finally!
I rush to get ready as I text her back, asking what the store is called.
I throw on a Metallica shirt with black ripped skinnies and black studded boots. I brush out my hair and do a smokey eye with dark eyeliner. But not too dark, I don't like looking like a raccoon.
I grab my keys and wallet then run out the door, smiling like an idiot all the way to my car and the way there.

"No One Like You" by The Scorpions was playing when I pulled up so I had to stay back and jam, the store wasn't opened yet anyways.
AC DC's "Hell's Bells" started playing when out of the corner of my eye I saw someone walking to the door to unlock it. I continued to jam out because you cannot simply walk out on AC DC.
The song was almost over when I felt someone watching me, I looked over and the guy who unlocked the door was smiling at me, arms crossed, leaning against the door. He looked to be in his early to mid 40's. Wearing a black leather jacket and a Kiss shirt. His dark hair slicked back with bits of grey here and there.

I smiled back and get out of my car.
"I'm guessing you're the owner of this place?" I ask excitedly.
He chuckled, "I guess I am, glad to see my first customer is a fan of the classics." He smiles, "Come on in." He says as he opens the door for me.

I'm aw struck as I look around. Old and new posters are hung everywhere, many CD's and records of course, guitars, and pins too.
"Woooow, I'm in heaven." I say with a stupid grin on my face.
The man chuckles "Have fun kiddo, I'll be at the front desk if ya need me."
I smile and head off down the CD section.
"I'm gunna need another job if I'm to come here often." I say loud enough for him to hear me.
I hear him chuckle. I think this is going to be my new favorite place.
As I look through the records, I smile to myself as a see Ghost records.
I guess the man got bored because he scares the ever living hell out of me when he spoke while walking by.
"Ah Ghost, their a great band. Tobias is one hell of a genius. Can't wait for their next album."
I smirk, "I know, I'm thoroughly obsessed with them. I just saw them a couple weeks ago at Delta Stadium."
He heads back to me and smiles, "Ah, I saw them a few years back while he was still Papa Emeritus II."

His next words make it hard for me to keep my cool.

"I heard on his latest interview that he's tied down now. Lucky girl. Wonder how she's taking the tour."

"S-surly she's missing him dearly, she's lucky indeed." I tried to not make it sound too obvious but I think the old man can tell when he's being lied to.
He raises an eyebrow and it looks like he looks at my bracelet then back to my face. He proceeds to chuckle once again, "Surly so, well I'll leave ya alone for good till your done and ready to check out."

After awhile of looking at the CD's and such I finally go look at the guitars. I only have one guitar as of now, she's a beaut but I'd like to practice electric guitar.
I see a really pretty deep blue one, if only I had enough for that and everything else I'm holding onto right now. I touch the guitar lightly, oh one day my pretty.

I finally walk to the register, CD's, pins, poster, and a couple picks in hand.

"Ah, Rammstein and Powerwolf, they're great bands too." He smiles as he scans everything for me.

The price for everything wasn't too bad either, only came up to $43.50. Not bad at all.
"I think I'm going to be a regular, " I say, "my boyfriend will absolutely love this place. He loves collecting records."
"Thats great, nice to know I'll be making business with true metal head." He laughs.
"Have a good day!" I yell to him as I leave.
"You too kiddo." He waves as I go.

On the way home Kiss's song "I Was Made For Lovin' You" came on. Damn the rock station is finally playing good oldie goldies.

When I get inside I place the new CD's onto my rack and the pins into my collection. I almost have enough for a new battle jacket. Yes!
I unroll my new PRIEST poster and think of where to put it, I look up and realize I have a ton of empty space on my ceiling. Bingo.
Once that's done with I pop the new Rammstein album into my CD player, I already know a couple of the songs by heart. I know a lot of them by heart in general.

I jump into bed with my sketch book and look for new HD pictures of Tobias that I could draw.
I finally find one and get to sketching.

I've done a couple hours of drawing when I get a text from an unknown number. Again. I had forgotten about the first time. I pause and look at the messages.

Uknown: I'll get to you one day, just you wait.
Uknown: Answer me you bitch, your guard dog won't be able to protect you forever.

Cold sweat appears on my back and I feel sick to my stomach.
Maybe its just a prank. I block the number and try to forget about it. It's probably nothing anyways. Even though my gut is telling me otherwise.

Authors Note: well it's been a bit and sorry for a bit of a cliff hanger. At least this chapter is a bit longer than the last?
Anyways sorry it's been a bit, like always, it's my horrible schedule keeping me off track. And the ever so helpful irl Kaley reminded me to update while I was at her house. Merry Christmas Kaley!
