Romance in the Band (me and creamylips)

[desertpaladin]

Lawrence sighed as he sat backstage with his small toolbox as he was looking over some of the amps that he personally had made for the show. He was the bass player for a small band, in truth they were not that well known but they did get gigs and that was what mattered most. They would mostly play at clubs and the like and tonight was no different. So here was Lawrence working on the amps and all of the electronics alone, in truth he prefered it that way, it gave him the time to work and get everything right.

Now Lawrence did not look like a rocker by any means but he was musically and technologicly gifted. Hell when he was in high school he was known as the best bass voice and player, so it was natural that he went into either classical singing or into a band, however it had been one girl's decision more than his own. Lawrence definately did not look like he belonged in a rock band, his hair was short and light brown, no dye or funky hairstyles and his soft hazel eyes were behind a pair of brown rimmed glasses, he never wore contacts, and heck he did not seem to fit the rocker feel with his body type. He was 6'4" and while his arms and legs seemed to be pretty well built he did have a bit of a gut to him. he was also a nerd by nature and he liked japanese culture a bit and he would often be caught in his spare time playing videogames or watching some anime.

Truth be told Lawrence had been offered a singing job but he had decided to also try out his bass playing skills, but when he went to the audition he saw this beautiful girl there who was already part of the band, he had impressed them with his skills and he had been a bit iffy to join but it had been her asking him that made him say yes. he had the biggest crush on her, the lead singer of the group but he knew full well that she and the drummer were dating, and in truth that really made him steamed, hell just thinking about it now made his movements a bit more violent as he was hooking things up. The man was a waste of flesh in Lawrence's eyes since the man smoked, drank, and got high like it was a religious act that he needed to preform every second of every day, he did not deserve any woman yet he had the one lawrence wanted.

Sighing as he set up the final amp on the stage he headed back off stage to get his Bass and tune it as well as the guitarist's guitar. He would then go on stage and preform a mike check and then everything would be done. Sighing he moved to get to work, his t-shirt that showed the game logo for Brutal Legend, his way of making a joke, and his jeans looked a bit more tattered, the way the band made him look like he belonged on stage, that and they forced him to wear converse, which he did not mind.

"Why aren't you cooperating?" Jen mumbled quietly. The girl was in one of the dressing rooms backstage, sitting on a chair infront of the mirror. There was no one else in the room for her to be talking to, and she was infact talking to herself. Well, not really herself, but her hair. The black mess on her head reached down to her shoulders, including very choppy layers with lots of volume and side bangs. In all honesty, her hair really wasn't that bad right now. Her bangs were just not cooperating, not swooping across her forehead the way she wanted them to.

Jen sighed. She had been at this for what seemed like forever and she had only made her hair worse than before. "Fine, you win." she mumbled, giving up. She looked down at the small counter infront of her, unzipping the makeup kit that lay on it. She took out her eyeliner and eyeshadow, doing a smokey eye on the lids of her piercing blue eyes. She added some mascara aftewards to complete the look. Once she was done her makeup, she changed her nose ring, putting in a small silver stud. She then put earrings in the many holes of her ear, placing studs and small hoops. She ran her fingers through the roots of her hair, voluminizing it more. She smiled at herself in the mirror when she was done, ignoring her hair that still wasn't right and concentrating on her face.

She stood up from her hair, pulling up her ripped black skinny jeans. She pulled her white t-shirt with a black design down over the waist of her jeans, her belt peaking out underneath it. She had many bracelets around her wrists and a few rings on her fingers. A locket hung around her neck with a small picture of her and her best friend inside, and she never took it off. On her feet were black and white high-top converse, which were a bit rundown, though she still loved them. She took one last look at herself in the mirror before walking out of the dressing room.

She walked around backstage, looking for her bed members to make sure they were ready, though she knew they probably were. She was always the one who took the longest, considering she was the only girl in the band and had to do hair, makeup, jewelry, etc. She walked out onto the stage, smiling as she looked out beyond it, picturing the people who would be crowded there later. She absoloutely adored the feeling she got when she was up there on stage, singing for the few fans the band had.

She turned her head when she heard the sound of someone's voice being amiplified by a microphone. She smiled when she saw who it was, waving to him before walking up to him. "Hey Lawrence."

Lawrence gave a small smile over to her as she approched and he handed her the mike 'here can you just give me a small test?" he asked as he looked her over and he smiled "You look amazing as usual" he said as he then moved over to the soundboard having her just give a few tests into the mike and he smiled taking it from her before he then began to try to talk to her, he had been so close to actually starting up a conversation with Lawrence saw her boyfriend Jack coming from behind them, with Jack calling Jen over with his usual way "Hey babe where have you been? I thought you were going to be coming back to my changing room"

Jack was many things Lawrence was not, Jack was average height and very well built having a very well crafted body for someone of his interests. He was a drinker, a smoker, a druggie. He had a massive mural of tattoos going down his arms with pictures of fire and demons and the like while he wore a t-shirt which was white and had red symbols on it. His jeans were ripped up and slightly hanging down to show his boxers slightly if his shirt moved up to high. His hair was dark black and his eyes a darker shade of brown, he had a few piercings on his ear and one on his tongue. He was a rocker through and through though Lawrence only thought of him as a meathead.

Jack came up to Jen as he always did, his hands going around her and grabbing her ass as he kissed her "Here come on, Lawrence has a lot of work to do" he said as he gave a warning glance to lawrence, it was not hard to tell that lawrence liked Jen, well at least to the other members and Jack was definately a jealous person, if he saw someone getting close to her he usually came in to draw attention back to him. Lawrence nodded "Yeah... I guess I do" he gave a slight glance back to Jack before he picked up his electric bass and he then grabbed Vick's guitar, and he headed off to Vick's room to give it to him.

Now vick himself was the only member of the band who was actually a different race other than white, he was actually half japanese and he, like lawrence, was a mad genous when it came to music, however he was usually the one to come up with songs, which would explain why sometimes their songs had a bit of a japanese feel at times. Vick had long dark hair that was just a shaggy mess around his head and some green eyes. He was a bit on the skinnier side and he usually wore shirts that his family sent him from Japan, so often times they would be unable to be desiphered by the other members. he had on one of those shirts where it had a rather interesting design on it and some ripped up jeans as well. He was sitting back in a chair smoking when lawrence came in. Now Lawrence hated the smell of cigerette spoke but he never tried to change the band members. when Vick saw Lawrence coming in he put it out and smiled as he grabbed the guitar from Lawrence thanking him as lawrence sat down and he sighed a bit. Vick just grinned as he looked at lawrence and he said "Don't worry man... just wait and either things will go your way for once or you will meet someone better" Lawrence laughed a bit at that and he said 'You know you really need to stop getting into my head... but remember" he said as he grinned at vick "I can still beat you at modern warfare any day" The two then just laughed a bit, telling a few jokes before Lawrence went off again to make a final round before the show.

She nodded as she took the microphone from him. "Thank you," she said into the mike. She honestly didn't think she looked that amazing right now, nor did she usually look as amazing as Lawrence thought she was. He was always so nice to her. "You don't look so bad yourself," she said, testing the mike as well as talking to her friend. She turned her attention away from him only when she heard the oh-so-familiar voice of her boyfriend. "Sorry, I wanted to talk to Lawrence for a bit," she said into the mike again, before bringing her arm down to her side so everyone wouldn't be able to hear every word she said.

She returned his kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck. She loved this boy so much, and even though there were things he did that pissed her off, she always ignored them. Even if he only wanted to do one thing most of the time, she knew that he loved her. If he loved her and she loved him, then that was all the mattered. Besides, she didn't really mind that activity. He was very good at it, and he made her feel so amazing. How could she ever turn him down?

She pulled her lips from his, turning her head to look at Lawrence. She was a bit disappointed that he was leaving. They barely ever got a chance to talk, Jack always managing to come in just when they could have a decent conversation. "Bye. See you soon," she said. She knew she would get to see him on stage, but they couldn't really talk while they were performing. She let go of Jack, turning off the microphone in her hand and putting it down. She watched as Lawrence walked off with the instruments, before turning her head to look back at Jack, walking back over to him. "'Kay," she said, knowing he wanted to go somewhere they could be alone.

Jack grinned as he walked with her his hand on her ass cheek as the two walked back. Now his room was much like hers, it was just a small room to get dressed in but there was a couch and a few other small chairs and such and his own personal flair which mostly included pictures of flames, demons and other awesome things. He turned to look at her as he pulled her close pulling her again into another kiss as his hands began to pull her shirt up "You forgot to come in and keep me company" he said 'I was getting so lonely, i mean normally we do our little... ritual" he said as he looked at her, leading her toward the couch, his intentions clear as day as if what he was doing now was not enough there was a buldge in his pants that was gently poking at her.

She walked with him to his dressing room, knowing exactly what he wanted to do before making any move to do it. What else did he ever want to do? She couldn't really complain though, since she loved it too, though not near as much as he did. She returned his kiss, resting her hands against his chest. "Sorry," she mumbled. Though she always loved being with him and how he could make her feel, she did like to talk to and spend time with other people as well. She slid her hands down his chest, resting them at the bottom of his shirt for a moment before gently pulling his shirt up. "Mmm," she mumbled softly against his lips at the feel of the buldge in his pants pressing against her crotch. She followed him toward the couch, sitting down on it as she became more and more excited for what she knew was about to happen.

He grinned as he moved with her down onto the couch, his hands pulling her shirt up over her head as his also was pulled over his exposing his rather well built body as well as the ace of spaces tattoo that was on his left pectoral. He licked his lips a bit as he just pulled up her bra enough to expose her chest before he pulled her pants down and off with her shoes and he also pulled her panties off, he was very demanding when it came toward sex. he grinned as he then undid his own pants and pulled them off quickly as he moved down on top of her, his hands moving her legs wide open to expose her pussy to him as he grabbed a condom nearby and he pulled it on before he slid deep into her
