Chapter 1
Levi woke with a start banging his bed on the top bunk that’s above him. He’s been having nightmares about that day ever since. He had to take anxiety pills just too calm himself down and top it all off he was also taking sleeping medication just to fall asleep.
“Here, nightmare again isn’t?” Kiefer handed him his pills. Once taking them from Kiefer’s hands, Kiefer went to the bottom bunk that was across from him.
“Yeah,” Levi hands were shaking so bad he couldn’t open the damn pill bottle. Sighing Kiefer grabbed it from him opening it and taking out two pills from him and handed to him. Gladly taking them from his hand Levi swallowed the pills dry. Getting up walking in to the main area of the tour bus before leaving he told Kiefer that he’ll be alright and that he can go back to sleep.
Levi went sitting in the main area, just watching traffic going by. The driver was already use to him staying up and sometimes they would have conversations when the driver felt like he was about to fall asleep, but right now Levi just wanted to sit and think. He never got that dream for very long time, but now he’s dreaming about more often than usual. Well it can’t be help Levi and his band mates were going back the city that was located just an hour and half away from where he actually lived.
He ran from home when he was sixteen, always going into the city to get drugs just to numb the feeling from that day. Nothing worked, so he left to get further away from it all. He moved to the next city. With no money in his pockets and barely surviving and all he had with him was his guitar and some clothes he grabbed from home before taking off. Levi told no one where he was going. Levi’s parents weren’t exactly that nice, well to him anyway. Levi was a result from his mother’s affair with a co-worker. The man never knew about it because before she found out she was pregnant with him he had got transferred out of the small company.
It didn’t exactly help his case to get on his adopted dad’s good side by being gay and having no interests in sports, so he was ignored by him. His mother on the other hand was different so just plain ignore him because he reminded her of her mistake. Sometime along the way his mother had another child. His baby brother, Darius was only ten when he left.
Someone came yawning and opening the mini fridge and grabbing a energy drink and plopping right across from him. Levi turns to see who it was and saw that it was Seven. Even though the name was weird, but it suited him to a tee for some odd reason.
“You know if you want to go to sleep. You don’t drink an energy drink,” Levi pointed out to him.
“Pssh...I know that,” Seven yawned again not bothering to cover his mouth and showing his tongue ring, “I just decided to keep you company. And plus you hitting your head on my bunk made it kind of hard to go back to bed.”
Levi just shook and his head muttering an apology. Levi is the youngest of the all the guys on the tour bus. They were touring with fellow musicians and friends of Day Unknown. They all thought of Levi as their younger brother. The one he was closer to was Kiefer, if it wasn’t for Levi probably would have still been on drugs and have nothing going for his life.
He met Kiefer a week of coming into the big city. He was just playing his guitar near bulletin board that had posting of various things. Kiefer along with the others were looking for a new lead guitarist and when Kiefer heard him playing. Kiefer took down the ad, grabbed Levi’s arm along with his things he had and dragged him all the way back to the apartment he shared with two other guys. Who later learned and got to know were Knox and Novah. They let him live in the apartment for free, but with few conditions he had to finish high school and play in the band. Novah and Knox always trusted Kiefer’s ability to take risks and knowing a good player when he sees one. So he stayed in the band called Crashing Empire and made family with three and add more into with Day Unknown band member’s Seven, Milo, Nico and Theo.
It just sucked that they will be writing their fourth album in Levi’s hometown. Of course the other four are coming apparently they want to a month off just to relax after this last concert. Levi just hopes he has enough anxiety pills or their manager is going to have to get another refill.
