Waters Ablaze

The soft hum of the bus had lured all but one occupant to sleep. A few others were on the other bus, but as the night went on, Oynix stayed in the mini kitchen. Writing songs or just a few lyrics here and there on scrap paper. Whatever flowed thought her mind went to her finger tips as she scribbled it all down. About four pages of useless jabber of words finally fit into a new song. Make that two songs.

I was confused on my current situation, I had been back with Wes for about a month. Shadows had heard from the guys but he had also seen Wes and I on the bus in a heated make out session. Why cannot I have both of them? Wow where did that twisted throught come from? Smiling to myself I stuffed me notebook in my bag and decided I needed some sleep.

Out of habbit I decided to take the bed I am used to sleeping in. Feeling an arm drape over my waist I was out in matter of seconds. Jolting awake I was once again thrown out of the bunk and on the floor.

“Damnitt, not again.” Standing up I rubbed my butt since I landed ass first this time.

“I swear this damn bus is out to get me.” Grumbling as I walked to the kitchen in hopes of coffee.

“Don’t worry, well be at a hotel tonight.” Shadows had appeared behind me as I poured a cup of coffee for myself.

“A real bed sounds amazing right now.”

“When is the next show?” Asking to no one in general as I took a seat at the mini table.

“Tomorrow night. But we have sound check tonight. Were about to pull up to the bar where we will be playing.”

Taking my coffee with me I decided to take a shower. Finished within 10 minutes, I got dressed. My basic ripped jeans and an old music tee that I took from Wes.

“Woo Hoo! Lets get this party going!” Who have given Jimmy coffee? As the Avenged guys stood in the pit watching, we went through one song.

I felt the energy take over my body, I belted out each note as hard and loud as I could.

“That was bad ass!” Vince and Sean were amazing with their skills.

“Babe that was awesome, I’m gonna go grab a water.” Getting a peck on the lips, I snuck over to his drum set. Making sure no one was looking, I picked up the sticks looked around. Coast clear both bands were at the bar. I began to play the drums.

This felt so much better then singing, at times. Going through the song in my head I kept up with the drummer of the song I was playing.

Stopping the song, I felt arms wrap around my waist grabbing the drum sticks, kneeling behind me.

“What do you think you’re doing?” Turning my head I saw I was caught, Wes had a smile on his face.

“Playing a song.” Smiling back at him.

“Well you did a pretty good job at it.”

“I know I did, I am better then the drummer of the song.”

“You think so?”

Nodding my head, I knew I was because it was my song I wrote.

“We will see about that. Grab your mike.” Before I could say anything I was picked up off the stool and placed behind him, as he took his seat.

Going back to my mike, we began the song minus the rest of the band.

“I'm on the train that's pullin' the sick and twisted
Making the most of the ride before we get arrested
We're all wasted and, we're not going home tonight

Covered in black we lack the social graces
Just like an animal we crawl out of our cages
They can't tame us
So if you're one of us, get on the bus

If you're a freak like me, Wave your flag
If you're a freak like me, Get off your ass
It's our time now, To let it all hang out

So shout if you're a freak like me, You were born to burn
This ain't no disease, you don't need a cure
It's our time now, to come out
If you're a freak like me
If you're a freak like me

We're underground but we will not surrender
We're gonna give em something to remember, Yeah
So write your name in gasoline, and set that shit on fire
If you're a freak like me, Wave your flag
If you're a freak like me, Get off your ass
It's our time now, To let it all hang out

So shout if you're a freak like me, Don't apologize
They can't hold you down, You were born to rise
It's our time now, to come out

If you're a freak like me
If you're a freak like me
Are you a freak like me?
Are you a freak like me?

If you're a freak like me, Wave your flag
If you're a freak like me, Get off your ass
It's our time now, To let it all hang out

So shout if you're a freak like me, Don't apologize
They can't hold you down, You were born to rise
It's our time now, to come out

If you're a freak like me
(If you're a freak, like me)
If you're a freak like me
(If you're a freak)
If you're a freak like me
(If you're a freak, like me)
If you're a freak like me
If you're a freak like me”

Turning to face him I saw the smile on his face. Mocking his face I put my mike down.
“Okay, so we both killed it.”

“Did you ever doubt it?” smiling to him, I felt a weird feeling running through my body. Sitting his drum sticks down, he stood and walked towards me. I prepared myself for him to kiss me, I love the feels of his lips on mine. His arms around my body. Something about that just made me feel so safe, loved and aroused.

"What the hell!"

Instead of a kiss, he grabbed my right arm, and hoisted me on his shoulder.

"Come on, sexy. were going to find a room." smiling at his idea, he had never changed.

But as I was being hauled off, I saw the look on Shadows face. His damn facial changes are giving me some serious whiplash.
