“True love stories never have endings.”

As the night winds down, everyone begins to dance. After the bride and groom had their first dance
, of course. I seek Layla out.

The song that Ryan had me tweak and record is going to be playing very soon and I want to dance with her as it plays
.
Tonight is a night of love and its cloaking the air and infecting everyone around with it.

I find Layla, looking absolutely gorgeous in her
blush colored halter bridesmaid gown. It covers her best assets, but shows her bare arms that I would love to lick every inch of.

She spy’s me staring at her
, so I casually approach her. “Would you dance this dance with me?” I ask courting.

“Why thank you sir, I thought you’d never ask.” She plays along
, blushing lightly.

I take my time walking her to the dance floor
, located on the top deck of the boat. The sun set hours ago and the stars are out and the moon is at full shine.

When we approach the dance floor
, I take her hand in mine and bring it to my mouth, lightly kissing her hand. She smiles coyly.

I pull her into me and wrap my arms around her back
, as she wraps her arms around my neck. In this precise moment, it couldn’t have been more perfect. The song, that I sung for Ryan starts playing over the speakers. The first verse sings out melodically and Layla comments.

“What is this? It’s so...so beautiful.” She says
, still listening to the words.

“It’s me.” I say proudly.

“What?”

“I recorded it for Ryan, it’s a
wedding gift.”

We stroll along in a sway of dance, just listening to the song. When the last verse plays
, she looks at me knowingly.

“Layla, I’m ready to be found.”

She beams brightly back at me. “I’ve already claimed you.”

We lean in at the same time, our lips meeting passionately. I grip her sides with my hands
, as she pulls me closer.

I’ve never been happier to have been found.

Find Me

Living life without a care, never having a free moment to spare.

I looked to you with vengeance on my mind, by hurting you it would be peace that I could find.

I was lost and looking down, afraid to admit I’d heard the sound. My soul, silently screaming to be found.

My soul was shattered and hidden in a cage, my entire life now played out on every stage. You saw right through my disguise, it was only the beginning to my demise.

I was lost and looking down, afraid to admit I’d heard the sound. My soul, silently screaming to be found.

Your soul was broken too, yet I hurt you, only making me the fool.

But with music we slowly healed, and my feelings for you I remained concealed.

I was lost and looking down, afraid to admit I’d heard the sound. My soul, silently screaming to be found.

We were two lost and broken souls, forever searching to be complete, love no longer taking the backseat,

I fought the darkness that was trying to consume me, and instead found you, forever mine to be.

I am now found, and that sound still haunts me. The sound of your heart breaking, a regret I won’t be mistaking,

Baby, my heart is yours for the taking.

Save Me: Rock Romance #4

Gage

This gold digging bitch, for some reason believes she has a connection with me that goes beyond a mere attraction. I’ve been trying to shake her off for a few months now and I thought I had succeeded. Turns out she was just laying low, somehow she in turn trumpeted my plans and managed to gain employment through our record label.

Here we are packing all of our shit onto the bus we will be somewhat living out of for the next six months when a cab the broad is in pulls up alongside the curb. At first, the long golden locks flowing freely down this woman’s back were unrecognizable. It had been months, so how should I have been able to remember who she was, that’s what I keep telling myself anyways.

I glanced, saw her back view, admired it for a moment and continued packing luggage into the compartment on the outside of the bus. Everyone already grabbed the shit they wanted with them on the bus, all of this crap is the luggage we would take into a hotel with us. Hotels that we will be staying at more than before, due to the fact that Natalie and Temperance have joined us as well, with lots of convincing on Ryan’s part.

Luckily, the label put up a large sum of money for them to have their own bus, they need room, and the baby needs room. Zepp, Jason and I have been staying at Ryan’s for well over a year now, but that place is fucking huge. A mansion if you will.
