A Complicated Heart

What's Going On?

What’s going on?

They had one more show left until they had their little break, and so far it was going really well, all 5 of them where having the time of their lives out there on the stage

It was the last song before the first encore and once it was finished, Stevie and Lindsey waited backstage ready to go on hand in hand as they always did, Lindsey pushed Stevie slightly to the right so they were in a dark part of backstage where literally you couldn’t see what was in front of you face and no one could see you either, he stood behind her and wrapped his arms around her middle

“You sound amazing tonight baby” Lindsey whispered in her ear, Stevie turned her head to where she thought his face was

“Thank you, you sound pretty amazing tonight yourself” she moved her hand up to his face and turned in his arms and pressed her mouth to his, he tangled his hand in her hair to deepen the kiss, they heard one of the crew shout to everyone they were on and so they pulled away from each other

“Time to go” Stevie said but not before she reach between them and brushed him through his jeans, looking up at him she winked

“You do know I have to walk on with no guitar Stevie?” he said she just winked again and walked off waiting for him to join her ready to walk on

“I’ll get you back for that” he said looking at her

“I can’t wait” was her reply as they walked on stage

They finished the show and were heading back to their dressing rooms once again, when Stevie felt a hand pull her aside

“Chris?” she asked when she saw who it was

“What’s going on?” Christine asked without pause

“Going on with what?” Stevie was genuinely confused

“What’s going on with you and Lindsey?” she asked

“Nothing why would you ask that?” Stevie was trying not to seem suspicious

“Well, since the party yesterday you’ve been practically joined at the hip, when not 3 days ago you were barley even looking at each other; please tell me you’re not sleeping together again are you?” Chris was trying not to sound too harsh, she loved both Stevie and Lindsey and didn’t want to see either of them get hurt again

Stevie didn’t know that Lindsey was just walking up behind her

“Oh god no Chris, why would I do something as stupid as sleep with Lindsey again, were friends but apart from that he means nothing like that to me” Chris suddenly noticed Lindsey then, and saw his expression

Without saying anything he walked straight on past Stevie and Christine, and this is when Stevie suddenly saw the back of him and knew that he must have heard what she said, she internally cursed herself, she felt Chris give her arm a squeeze and then she carried onto her own dressing room

Stevie decided she needed to go tell Lindsey she didn’t mean what she had said she was just trying to cover up their secret. She walked and knocked onto Lindsey’s door and walked in

“Linds?” she looked around and saw him sitting on the floor with his back resting against the couch, he had his head in his hands

“Lindsey I didn’t mean it, you have to know that baby” she walked over and knelt in front of him

“The band has always kept our secrets in the past, surely Chris would have done it again” he looked at her

“She just seemed like she would have been so disappointed in us, I couldn’t handle it” she put her hand on his knee and felt slight relief when he covered her hand with his

“I suppose your right, the main thing that has hit me is it took me back to a time when what you said was true” she didn’t actually believe he thought that he had ever not meant the world to her. Stevie put her hands on his face and lifted it so he was looking at her

“Believe me Linds when I say, even when we had our biggest rows and didn’t talk for years, there wasn’t a second that you didn’t mean absolutely everything to me, I love you, I always have and I always will” she moved his hands out the way and moved so she could straddle his legs, once there she wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his neck

Lindsey didn’t say anything, he couldn’t he was in his own little world of thoughts and she knew this, she knew he was still with her when she felt his arms tighten around her

After a few minutes Stevie got up and held her hands out for Lindsey to take

“Come on we have a band meeting to attend” he took her hands and rose up off the floor also

They were sitting in Mick’s dressing room discussing how the show went tonight and any changes that might be needed

“Well it went really well I feel, I don’t think I saw anything that needs changing, it all looks perfect how it is to me, you’re guitar playing was on fire tonight Lindsey!” Mick said, Stevie looked over at Lindsey who still hadn’t said anything, what she had said must have really hurt him she thought to herself, she knew it would have hurt her if it was the other way round

Lindsey gave Mick a small smile

“Well I can see everyone is wiped out so let’s call it a night, I hope everyone enjoys the break and I’ll see you guys very soon” he wanted to try and cheer Lindsey up so he stopped and looked at him

“Oh and Lindsey, try not to get to ‘busy’ as you said with the other half, we would like you to be able to make it back on stage” Lindsey forced a chuckle but still didn’t say anything

Everyone got up to leave and Stevie walked over to Lindsey

“Can I come stay with you at the hotel tonight?” she asked him, he turned round to look at her

“No I think it would be best if I just went back and got some sleep, I’m tired” she wasn’t surprised that he said no but it still hurt

“Oh...Okay, when will I next see you then, been as were supposed to be getting ‘busy’” she tried to make a joke but it was wasted right now

“I’ll call you Stevie” he said and walked away she watched him and saw his arm come up to his face, she could only see the back of him but she knew he was wiping a tear away

I hope you all enjoyed this part? feedback as always would be very appreciated :)xo
