9Memoirs of Being with the Band
a/n: thanks for the reviews! ) sorry took so long to update
I rubbed my temples roughly as I just hung up with Johnny. The nice one, not the snarling pit bull. Fortunately, Johnny called me before I had to go in the Rise && Rot room. I was walking down the hall to take the important call when I heard the Rise && Rot Johnny snarl 'another dumb whore Matt?' Matt answered in a nervous tone 'No, she's a rock journalist. She's going to write about the band.' Johnny shrugged and went 'you know they all end up in my bed or your bed anyway' then I heard the door close.
I swear! Assuming I'm some trashy groupie?!
The nerve! Anyway, to top it off, I was talking to Johnny and he actually asked me to get an interview with some of the members from Rise && Rot. That's all he asked for. It's just one interview but Johnny from their band seems like a walking migraine. I need Tylenol ready for action with me.
But I'm professional. I'll deal right?
Suddenly I felt a light tap on my shoulder I quickly turned around to see stone gray eyes looking back at me menacingly. I backed up a bit.
"Oi, are you going back to the 'partment love?" His voice was familiar and his accent distinguishable.
"Are you Johnny?"
I just noticed the smoke rise in front of me from the cigarette in his hand. He smelled like smoke and alcohol and surprisingly cinnamon. He slouched and was slender with a light build.
"You're dumber than you look!" Johnny laughed then took a hit.
I narrowed my eyes and laughed. "Well you're not exactly famous so how am I supposed to know some unknown band from Europe?"
"Touché love." He inhaled the cigarette deeply then exhaled in my face. "Matt asked me to check on you."
"Why didn't he just do it himself?" I said crossing my arms.
"He's sorta busy at the moment." Johnny raised his eyebrows suggestively. "But you don't look too bad yourself. Why don't you come back to the room for some drinks, not that drinks will make you any easier to get with…"
I felt my jaw beckoning to drop. I shoved past him and let my tallest finger fly high. "Screw you!"
"What the bloody hell was that for?!" He yelled.
I kept storming off until I reached the elevator which wasn't as packed as before.
"Stupid British…Mr. Knowitall…ugly sonofag…smoking fat cow…jerk!" I kept mumbling to myself. After the 3 floor I noticed people looking at me as if I was possessed. When I got out I immediately went to my room and looked for my swimsuit. Maybe a swim would cool me down.
:Much Later:
Turns out I stayed in my room for 4 hours before I finally left and went swimming. The pool was on the roof and it was already dark outside. I stripped off my clothes revealing my black bikini top and match black boy shorts. There were a lot of skimpy looking girls though, wearing bikinis that looked more like tissue paper on them. I noticed a couple though, sitting in the hot tub hugging each other.
I was going to go "aw" but I thought they would think I was mocking them.
I walked on the diving board and took a small jump then dived.
:Quinn:
"Oh shut up you bloody wanker!" Johnny yelled at the person who poked their head out of the door and told us to be quiet.
Rise && Rot and our band were walking down the hallway making lotsa ruckus, cept me of course who was thinking about that girl I met. The one who spilled coffee on me with the dark hair and who had only half smiled when she smirked. Johnny noticed I was more quiet than usual and gave me a big pat on my back.
"Oh don't worry Quinn my boy!" Johnny said through gritted teeth that loosely hung on to his cigarette. "The girls are soon to come!"
I smiled weakly as we reached the pool. As Johnny promised, there were many barely dressed girls at the pool. No kidding right? I mean bathing suits are revealing to begin with but these girls looked like they just had a piece of cloth covering them.
"Johnny we're been waiting for you!" A red headed girl said waving.
"Johnny?!" I heard a girl spat as she came out of the pool soaked and dripping. She had a normal plain looking bathing suit and looked oddly familiar.
"Finally decided to join us Janie?" Matt said happily.
Janie?
