Chapter 5

Finally the concert came to an end and it was time for us to leave. I, honestly was still in shock, as we walked out of the building with people streaming out in clustered groups.

" Wasn't that the best concert ever?!" Annalise said she still was as excited as she was before the concert while Zahira and I looked exhausted.

" I need sleep." Zahira moaned before resting her head on my shoulder.

" Sure, I'll call an uber." I said getting my phone from my purse to call one.

"Hey you!" A loud voice said behind me, startling me so much that I almost dropped my phone. It was one of the usher's and yes, he was calling out to me. I looked around confused, I didn't think I had done anything wrong.

"Come with me."

"Hey hold up, what did she do wrong?" Zahira said standing between the usher and I.

"She hasn't done anything wrong, she's just needed inside."

"Well we're coming with." Annalise spoke up.

"No, it's just her." The usher said and I looked around at my friends, I knew who wanted me there and honestly I was bit curious what he wanted.

"Guys, it's okay. I'll be fine."

"Oh no Thandie, you are not going back in there." Zahira said grabbing my arm.

"Relax guys, you go on home. I'll be fine, I promise." I said following the usher. My friends stared at me but I couldn't read their expressions because it was dark but I went inside anyway, hoping that they'd forgive me. I was led inside to a very luxurious room where I found the band members just relaxing. The drummer was on one of the couches, air drumming while he was in headphones, the lead guitarist was busy fidgeting with he's guitar and the rest of them weren't there. The guy with the guitar looked up at me, he's blue eyes scanned me for a minute before he cocked he's head for the usher to leave. He was actually very handsome when I got a good look at him, he's sharp blue eyes were captivating and he's blonde hair just looked so soft. He looked asian, I was guessing mixed with Korean.

" Aren't you going to sit?" He asked and I slowly sat on the other end of the couch. " He won't be long."

I nodded not sure how to respond.

"You don't seem to be a fan." He said cocking up an eyebrow.

" Why's that?" I asked.

" Most fan girls would be screaming their lungs out."

" Actually, I had never heard your music since today. I was dragged here by my friend who is a really big fan of you guys."

"Oh so you really aren't a fan. Don't you like rock music?" He shifted he's position obviously anticipating my answer.

"I didn't but I do now. Your guitar solo was to die for, absolutely loved it."

"Thank you." He smiled, he was even hotter when he smiled and I couldn't help but blush back.

"I'm Drew by the way." He said introducing. "That idiot over there listening to he's own solo is Ian."

Ian cocked he's head up, responding to he's name. He took he's headphones off and smiled.

"I didn't know there's a girl in here, a hot one too." Ian smiled. He was a really cheerful person, I could tell with he's smile wrinkles that and the gleam in he's eyes. " Hi, I'm-.."

"Already introduced you." Drew interrupted. The door opened and Jason walked in with the two other members of the group.

"Sorry for making you wait with these weirdos." He said sitting next to me. Drew stared at him.

"Why aren't you introducing her?"

"Oh right. Thandiwe, this is Liam, Sebastian, Drew and Ian. Boys this is Thandiwe." Jason said introducing us." She was the one who took care of me during one of my drunk disappearances."

"Thandiwe? I hope I'm pronouncing it right. Beautiful name, what does it mean?" Sebastian asked. He was quite different from the rest, he looked more mature and I guessed he was the eldest. He had the brown eyes that looked wise and he's dark hair of course was styled unruly but it suited him, really well.

"It means beloved in zulu." I replied.

"Oh so you're South African."

"Oh no, I'm Malawian."

"Cool, cool. Well thank you for taking care of this alcoholic idiot of ours." Liam said roughing up Jason's hair. Liam had this snake bite piercing that I weirdly found attractive. He's arms were filled with tattoos and he was a bit muscular than the rest.

" Dude, paws off the hair okay." Jason shoved his hand off.

"Anyway, Thandie it was nice meeting you but we're exhausted and we got to go back at the hotel." Drew said standing up and the rest of them seemed to agree. I couldn't blame them, the concert was intense. I waved goodbye at the rest of the band as they got up to leave.

"I'll meet you at the hotel guys." Jason said and Sebastian nodded.

"You're a rockstar?!" I asked when we were finally left alone.

"I thought you knew. That actually explains a lot from our first encounter but it was nice seeing you at my concert." He smiled. "I just liked how you made me feel like a normal person, it hasn't changed even though you know that I am a rockstar."

"You're still the drunk guy who passed out on my couch in my eyes." I said laughing.

"You're never going to get over that are you?"

"Nope, you're never going to hear the end of it."

"Anyway, to thank you for everything. I got you a gift." He stood up and picked up a box from the table. He opened it up and inside was the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen, it looked really expensive with a butterfly pendant encrusted with beautiful jewels. I looked at it in awe and just shook my head.

"I can't except this." I said. He completely ignored me and helped me put it on.

" I'm not taking no for an answer. It's a gift from a friend, anyway it's getting late. Let me go drop you off."
