"Holy shit that was one of our most kickass shows ever!"
All of us were gathered in Matt's hotel room, cracking open beers and celebrating. I was perched in Jimmy's lap, his arm coiled around my waist and my hand resting on his thigh.
"Hell yeah, I'll drink to that!" Zacky exclaimed and rose his bottle.
"Here here!"
"Damn straight!"
I laughed and twisted in Jimmy's lap to look at him. He didn't seem to intent on celebrating though, he was lost in thought.
"Hey babe," I whispered, "what's wrong? You're not acting normal." Usually, Jimmy was the party hog, always raising his glass first so to speak. Now, he just seemed pissed about something.
"Naw, I'm just tired is all."
"Now I know your lying. You don't get tired Jimmy, unless your smashed. And you've hardly touched your drink."
"I told you I'm just tired. And it is possible for me not to be in a drinking mood ok?" I grabbed his chin and turned his face in my direction, studying his eyes. Yep, there was definitely something bad going on with him, I could tell by the clouded glaze in his normally lively eyes.
"Come outside really quick." Hopping out of his lap, I made my way to the door, yelling to everyone that we would be right back. When he shut the door, I motioned for him to follow me, and led him into the parking lot.
"What's this about Mari?" Good, I’ve got his attention.
"There isn't a cloud in the sky, just stars and blackness.
Here, come lay down with me." He looked at me strangely, so
I took his hand and pulled him to the nearest car. After making ourselves comfy on the hood, I waited.
Waited for him to make a move, to start talking or grab my hand, anything to prove I was just acting crazy. He didn't talk but he did eventually move closer, and started cuddling up to me. I laughed and snuggled closer to him, and looked him deep in his eyes. The haziness was still there, but less so than earlier.
"So... you wanna talk about it?" Jimmy sighed in an obnoxious way, then I curled my lip out in a pouting face.
"I don't know, it's really stupid. Just, can you answer me something truthfully?"
"If you can ask me something truthfully." I joked, but cleared my grin upon seeing his UBER serious face.
"Just kidding, ask away." There was that haziness returning to his eyes. He sat up and looked up at the stars.
"Do you like me?”....... ARE YOU SERIOUS? He made me worry about him cause he wanted to know if I liked him? Jesus fucking Christ, what's up with rock stars and drama?
"Well, of course I like you. More than a friend, by the way."
"Do you like the guys?" Where all this was headed, I wasn't sure. I knew that this was leading to something important though, so I played along.
"I like the guys.... as I would brothers. A bunch of crazy brothers."
"So, you don't like any of them as you like me?" AHHH... now I knew what was wrong. A simple case of jealousy was nagging Jimmy. But, what was he jealous for, I didn't sexy talk the guys nor did I make time for them like I did with Jimmy. I was just there when they called me, not vice versa.
"Hell no Rev. You know I'm only for you. Just like you’re only for me. Your mine Jimmy Sullivan, and don't you forget it!"
Satisfied, he lay back down, pulling me down with him. That hazy look was still there, but for now it seemed more of a light morning fog.
"Don't worry Rev, I wouldn’t ever hurt you. Especially not like that." He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer.
"Ok." As we lay there under the stars, I wondered about what was really on Jimmy's mind. All I knew was that he had more to say, but was biting his lip about it for now. Just like I was biting my lip about Zacky, and that move he pulled on stage.
God damn it, rock stars and drama. Drama was taking over, and I felt like something bad was going to happen. Whatever it was... I'm ready. Or so I thought.....
