After the show Mary and Charlotte went backstage again "you guys were amazing!" Charlotte said "you are all so good at playing your instrument and Freddie.. OOHH your voice! I love it!" She said with a big smile, Freddie giggled "I know darling, we are amazing" and they all laughed. "Does everyone want a beer?" John asked and they all said yes and sat down. While John was getting the six beers Charlotte sat down next to Brian and a few seconds later Roger asked if he could sit down next to Charlotte. "Yes, of course you can" she said and she felt a little happy feeling inside her belly, something she never felt before.
They talked for hours, about all sort of things. Sometimes she looked to her left and there say Roger, he had such beautiful eyes she couldn't help looking at them. "Is there something?" Roger asked, because she was only staring in his direction. "No there is nothing" she said and looked away. "Also" He said "is it okay if I call you Lottie? That's shorter and I think it's really cute" she giggled "yes that's okay" and she smiled at him.
It was late and getting cold but she didn't got her jacket with her, she could feel the warmth of Roger and on her other side a little bit of Brian's but that was not enough to keep her warm. She was shivering when Roger asked "are you okay? You are getting cold, aren't you?" He said with his lovely voice "yes a bit" she said. "Do you want to have my jacket?" He asked "If that's okay for you, yes please" He took his jacket off and gave it to her "thanks" she said and she took it on, it was still warm.
When it was around 1 am they all had to go because the pub was closing. "You were walking, weren't you?" Roger said "yes I am" "can I walk you home Lottie?" He said with the sweetest smile "Thanks Rog, but it's not really necessary I think" "ahhh come on Lottie, I insist, please let me walk along with you" He said "okay then" she said and she smiled.
"I live only three streets away from the park so we're almost at my house" "This neighbourhood is so amazing" He said "back in time I came here often with my friends" "me too, we were always hanging at the skatepark" she said, and she looked at Roger. She looked at his eyes, they were shimmering in the lights of the lampposts.
When they were at Lotties house they stopped "I live here, thanks for walking along with me Rog" and she gave him a hug "No problem. Also Lottie, can I maybe have your number, just in case" he said and he smiled.
