(AN: the two different spellings of Lindsey and Lyn-z are on purpose, i'm using Lindsey in scenes when she is away from the band and any other time it's Lyn-z ) :)

We'd been dubbed 'The Kings of the Grill' by the other bands on tour. 

Every night, when all the shows were finished, we would cook up the best grill and barbecue as a token of our appreciation. It was a place for the bands to relax and wind down after the days of back-to-back sets.

Me, Lindsey, Frank and Jamia found a log near the back of the gathering with a blanket draped across it, and squished us all on it together. Jamia sitting on Frank's lap more than the log, much to his delight. Lindsey and I, sharing the blanket.

We joked and chattered together as we ate our hot dogs. The conversation had turned to origin stories somehow, Frank was hypnotised.

"And I blew fire all over the room! Probably giving Jimmy first degree burns in the process, but that was it, I was in the band!" Lindsey enthused.

Frank gaped at her. "No SHIT!"

I exchanged glances with Lindsey and she smiled, finding my hand under the blanket and squeezing it. I didn't expect her to hold my hand, but I smiled and returned the gentle squeeze.

Take that Frank Iero! I thought to myself.

Jamia was still in awe the entire walk back. "You are a total BADASS!" She cried.

But I was preoccupied with the hand that had found mine and wouldn't let go.

"I want to stay with you." Lindsey whispered into my ear.

And with that we slipped away into the shadows, back to the little wood from yesterday.
