Dreaming of You
Can This Set Just Be Over?
Kylie and I were watching the show backstage. She had not said a word to me since we got called back here. He was real, he was alive in my dreams, I mean why else would he call me up here? Kylie was chatting with some of the people backstage now and I watched the boys play and every once and a while Alex would glance back to me and simply smile, I would always smile back.
I was watching them as they finished the song "The reckless and the Brave" and Alex held the note on the end. The crowd roared, and He laughed. My heart fluttered, holy Jesus. This was actually happening.
"I'm going to slow it down really quick for ya! We're going to play the song remembering Sunday" The crowd roared as he walked backstage to grab an acoustic guitar. When he got backstage he walked straight to me, he wrapped his arms around me and hugged me. I hugged back in shock.
He let me go and grabbed his acoustic guitar, before he walked back onstage he kissed the top of my head. I freaked out, I smiled a bit and walked to over to Kylie, who was chatting up some Merch guy. I was going to share my frustrations with her, but I couldn't, she was too busy showing off her tattas.
I needed to share these feelings with someone, so I looked around backstage. I saw a guy with a headset on just sitting back texting. I approached him.
"Hi" I said, what was I thinking? I don't talk to people.
"Hello" he said, smiling. He seemed nice.
"How are you?" I asked, shoot. What was I doing?
"Good, so happy this tour is almost over. The break will be good for me, good for Alex especially" He said, putting his cell in his pocket.
"Why Alex?" I asked concerned, already half knowing the answer.
"You a reporter?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No" I responded.
"Alex is having a really messed up love triangle. He has this ex-girlfriend that keeps showing up, taking his money, and leaving. Then he has this girl, he keeps dreaming of her. She’s stuck in his head and I’m not even sure if she’s real, I mean I want to believe but like…she’s quite literally in his head. Jack told me about it, being tour manager, I need to know things, and he’s been tripping. I feel like a little fresh air will do us both some good. Who are you anyway?" He asked, he looked confused on if he should have told me all that.
"I'm serenity" I said, holding out my hand for him to shake it.
"Funny, his dream girl had the same name...I'm Matt Flyzik" He said, shaking my hand.
"I kind of figured we had the same name" I smiled weirdly, he looked at me, nodded, and walked away. funny how this all worked out. I heard Alex ending the show and I got all giddy.
"Goodbye Tennessee!" He screamed, running backstage, but more importantly, running to me.
