I sat back and crossed my arms, keeping to myself and just listening to everyone else talking. Max and Sonny wouldn't shut up, they just kept on chatting away.
"So..." Ronnie sat next to me, stretching his legs out infront of him and leaning back on his arms. "Tell me about yourself," he smiled.
"Okay... My name's Matt Good, I'm the guitarist of the oh so wonderful-"
"From First To Last", we both said at the same time. He let out a small laugh and I smiled.
"Yeah... And uh... I like to eat cheerios. My hair used to be blonde... Oh, and I got this tattoo from that movie Spirited Away," I grinned, showing him my arm.
"Ooh, that's interesting," he said, peering at my tattoo.
"What about you?" I asked. I tilted my head and listened to him tell me about himself. He seemed so different from a lot of the other guys I've toured with. He actually seemed a lot more wilder, even when sober, that is. We had our own separate conversation while the others around us seemed distant.
"Guys... Guys!" We both looked up to see Sonny waving at us.
"Yeah?" we said at the same time, glancing at each other and laughing. Gosh I feel like a little school girl who just made a new girlfriend.
"We're going out to get lunch... You two coming with?" I looked at Ronnie who just shrugged.
"Nah, thanks, I think we'll pass." I answered.
"Okay then, we'll see you in an hour or so... See ya," Sonny waved and caught up with everone else, who were a few steps ahead of him. I faced Ronnie again and from the corner of my eye, I thought I saw Derek giving me the middle finger. I shook it off.
"You wanna get some coffee or something?" I asked.
"Sure, there's a starbucks round the corner." I stood up and helped him up too, he wiped the dust off of his butt. I couldn't help but smile and glance at his ass. We walked together to the shop, sitting down at a two seater table at the back, both ordering simple coffees. One thing sprung out to me the most about Ronnie, he always made eye contact when talking to me.
He was polite, strange enough, and he never stopped smiling. It was contagious, he made me smile too. After the coffee, we began to walk around, checking random shops and a few hours later we got some italian ice cream. In other words, it was a w e s o m e.
I was still licking my ice cream as we entered the parking lot, while Ronnie on the other hand was already munching on his cone. Nobody was outside, we assumed everybody went back in their busses. We were just about to part before I spoke up.
"Hey uh... Ronnie... You wanna hang out in our bus for a while?" I asked hesitantly, before taking a bite out of the cone.
"Sure," he smiled, finishing his last bite. He followed me back to my bus and we stepped in.
"Sorry 'bout the mess," I muttered, kicking a few clothes to the side. He chuckled.
"This isn't messy, you clearly haven't seen our bus."
"Hey hey," Max waved frantically. We saw Sonny sitting on Max's lap on the teeny couch, while Travis lay on his bunk, talking on his cell phone. Seth was playing on his nintendo DS [which I wonder where he got from...] and Derek sat up on his bunk, arms crossed, talking with the two on the couch.
"Hey guys," Ronnie waved back, just as frantically. I raised my eyebrows and just shook my head.
"You guys know we've got a show in an hour," Sonny mumbled, resting his head on Max's shoulder... Looks like they're getting closer, hmm?
"You know what, you should come on stage while we're on," I said to Ronnie, sitting next to him on my bed. "Sing with Sonny for a song or something."
"Yeah, that would be fun." I looked over at the couch again, Sonny was leaning close to Max, whispering in his ear, Max was giggling, looking red as a strawberry.
"You know," Ronnie mused, scooching closer to me. "I think a certain someone is getting a little well acquainted with somebody else, don't you think?"
"Depends," I smirked, moving my arm so it was touching his.
"Who are you talking about?"
One love in your eyes now, look afraid
