Better Than Pizza | REGGIE PETERS
33 parts Complete You grew up with Sunset Curve. Their music was the soundtrack of your childhood, blasting through car speakers on late-night drives, dancing barefoot in the kitchen with your parents, singing every word like it meant something. You knew the story. Everyone did. The band that could've been huge, cut short by a freak accident after eating bad street dogs.
But even years later, you never stopped listening.
And while the people who actually knew them loved Luke's raspy, reckless energy or Alex's perfect timing, your heart always drifted to Reggie. Something about his voice, so warm and steady, calmed you down in a way nothing else could. Even when you could barely hear him over the others, it always felt like he was singing just to you.
So what happens when you meet them? Really meet them. Like... ghost-of-a-dead-band standing-in-your-friend's-garage kind of meeting.
Turns out, they've been stuck here all along, unseen and unheard. Until you and Julie. And while they all feel like old friends, there's something different about Reggie, something that makes your heart race and your chest ache in a way you can't explain.
Falling for a ghost was never the plan. But neither was discovering that the music that saved you might be the very thing that binds you to a boy who doesn't belong in your world... and a past that refuses to let go.
