2024-10-29 19:42:56The story starts with Faris Malik and his band finding a big gig, to open for a band that was hugely successful. He wants to make it big in the music Industry and it has been the only dream he wished to achieve since childhood. He is very dedicated but everything turns haywire when a person from his past appears. Everything is changed and his life turns upside down because of this one person.
This person is no other that Sierra Jane, a girl who he had a crush on in high school. He was mad about her and would do anything just to have a single glimpse of her but before he could confess his feelings to her she left the city only to return years later creating chaos in his life.
Faris likes to be in control of everything that happens in his life and has always been the one with a plan. Everything was in control in Faris's life until Sierra comes. She takes away his breath with her beauty and shuts him up with her brains. She is sassy and witty and is everything that he can't control and handle.
They are the two opposite sides and like they opposites attract and when they come in contact with each other they not not only attract each other but consume each other. They can't keep their hands off eachother.
As his band gets recognition and everything starts to turn around for them, Faris finds himself caught in a controversy one that could ruin his career and his dream. The band faces backlashes and is on the edge of breaking and on the other hand everything turns upside down in his fairytale love story.
Faris is in a dilemma when he has to choose between his dream and his love. He loves them both to his core and can't lose any one of it. But now it is not only about him, it is about all the members and their career too and of course in the middle of his chaotic life is his love, the love of his life, Sierra.
Life is never fair and Faris has experienced it first hand when he could loose both the things close to his heart. The pain and struggle will either break him or make him legendary. What he chooses will decide his future and that of his band. If he chooses his band and wants to save his dream than he would have to let go of his love and if he chooses his love, the only person with whom he has ever connected with and only one person who can make his heart skip a beat then he will have to let go of his band and his childhood dream.
What will he choose and how will it affect the lives of the people around him. Will he be able to save both his dream and his love or will he loose both. The story is his journey finding his way to top through his internal struggles and all the setbacks that life throws at him. Will he be able to find his happily ever after or will it be just a dream?

Rising Dawn Introduction
I am a singer songwriter living the world of my dreams. I have made many songs and most of them have been a hit with the local audience and the extended fam has been growing. The love and support the audience have been showing has been overwhelming if not anything else. It has been a crazy journey, I am not that successful yet, but I know one day I will be one of the top most singer and composers that the world will remember and cherish.Singing and songwriting have been my thing since childhood. I was not a mischievous or a naughty kid in fact I was quite the opposite. I was sincere as a kid and good in studies. Growing up I have discovered my love and passion to write songs and sing them. I have been learning about music ever since. I have not been an open person, I am quite private about my personal life and I like to keep things that matter close to me.It is not easy for me to express my feelings or my emotions. It is not because I have b
Rising Dawn Good morning
Faris"Get up Ferry, we are getting late" came an annoying voice of my friend. He calls me that annoying nickname that he gave when we were kids.We have been together since childhood and he is the only one who can call me ferry for everyone else it is Fer or Faris. We go way back since we were whatever that is because it's been really long and I remember him since forever. When we were kids it was me and him against the world and used to get involved in lots of trouble because of my stubbornness but Ty or you can say Tyler has always stuck around. We have been tight since then. Now that there are other members of our band and people who are with us in this we realised that it has become our family.We all have each others back even if we do the dumbest shit. We can rely on each other and it's something I am really proud of."Fuck off" was the only reply I could have come with at the time. I was hung over and

FarisWell all have decided for a celebration for both the amazing studio and the performance. I think it will be great to let some steam off. Mike and Ryan are completely wasted, and while I’m entertained, I’m also incredibly annoyed. They’ll end up in jail tonight. No doubt about it.I laugh as one of the girls rolls her eyes and walks away from Mike after whatever he whispers in her ear. He holds his hands up innocently, seeming genuinely confused by her walk-off response.He recovers quickly and finds a new girl to stalk, so I return to sipping my beer and scanning the scene. I came out tonight to have fun, and all I’ve done is think about Sierra, she is past and it has been long. I don't know why I always come to her or what has been left because there was nothing between us to start with in the first place.We drove all the way to come to a bar where the women didn’t know the two idiots I call my band members.
Rising Dawn Can't believe
SierraI was drinking and a bit too much for my liking, I don't know why I stayed sober for so long it feels so good to be finally letting go of work and problems and just having fun. The loud music and the drinks reminds me of the parties we used to have when in college. I was so wild back then and used to have so much fun. It feels like forever already, Kate is right I need to loosen up a bit and enjoy myself too. Work and problems can wait, I definitely need some more booze. I stood up from the counter needing to use the restroom.“You can’t possibly be leaving so soon,” a deceptively seductive voice murmurs close to my ear, making me all the more tense as his warm breath fans my cheek and leaves unbidden chills in its wake. The voice was hoarse and husky leaving tingles over my body.Oh. My. God. You’ve got to be kidding me. How much has he had to drink? The person behind me seems to be drunk, I can smell wine on him. I didn't t

FarisI woke up to sun shining on my face. The morning brightness waking me up. I got up and sat on the bed, eyes still closed because of over drinking last night. I felt hung over and my head was aching. I roamed my hand on the night stand to get my mobile, it has always been my habit to check my mail early morning from work and start then start out my day with working out. I couldn't find find my mobile or my nightstand.I panicked and opened my eyes to look around. The bright sun shining from the window onto my face and eyes made me close my eyes due to the brightness.

Rising Dawn Catching a glimpse
FarisIt was early in the morning and I was wide awake as today is the day we all were waiting for the past few months and for some the wait has been years. Yesterday, we received an offer from a huge label of getting signed by them. The label is one of the top music producing labels, it has huge celebrities signed and contracted under them.We were lucky enough to garner their interest, we all have been working really hard to get a label sign us, we are artists and we don't know the business part of the industry, We needed professional help and only a label could provide us that support and push. I hope the meeting goes accordingly and we get signed by the end of the day.A knock on the door, diverted my mind."You up early," said Mike as he entered the room."Can't sleep, can you blame," I said sounding super excited early in the morning."Who else coming?" he asked."Tyler won't come because he has prior plans and the twins will jo
Rising Dawn Big day
Faris,"Guys, get ready for tonight, our big day today" I said with excitement and happiness. It is a big project and if we do it right then there are high chances of us getting signed by labels."We have to give our best, no mistakes tonight. We've worked way too much to fucking get here. This here, tonight is our chance at getting our band signed by labels," I said to everyone, it was really overwhelming and I wanted to make it our day today."Don't worry Fer, everyone is ready. We all are ready for our chance at success. We've worked really hard to get here and tonight we will perform like kings, the show is ours" said Rebel matching my enthusiasm."Get ready then, we have to travel" said Tyler packing bags."Group hug guys," she said.***FarisI've been pacing back and forth in the room where we were
Rising Dawn Group hug
FarisI can't believe I fucked up so bad. I can't believe that I forgot about the rehearsals, by the way it was our final rehearsal before the big performance tomorrow and I fucked up by not coming on time. We were to shift studios and get our instruments on time to this new studio and finally start our jamming session.There were some final changes that needed to be made and make the piece attuned to the music and final work in the mixing and mastering of the beats and the final music that we will be performing. Though we have already done most of it but we were being extra careful because it was big for us, we are to perform and open for a huge band and this is extremely important for me and all of the band. We have worked way too hard for us to be here and I can't fucking be the one to ruin it for me and others.Fucking Sierra Jane is messing with my mind and turning me on just by thinking of last night.
Rising Dawn Past memories
Sierra"What happened Sierra?" came the cheerful voice of Kate. She must have been looking for me and I just switched off my phone. I don't know but I didn't wanted to talk to anyone."I tried calling you but it went straight to voicemail and you left us no message. I had to call your office and they said you were in a meeting. I was worried about you," she said while sitting on the couch in my living room."Damnit... say something, I was worried sick about you. You never pulled that kind of stunt on me before," she asked again demanding answers which I didn't knew. I am also trying to find answers."I don't know," I said sounding lost and a bit off. I tried to be fine but everything is not fine and thinking about how I left things is making me feel vulnerable."Hey, so did it really happened. I mean... you .. and Faris... like I mean.. you and him..." ,she said.. more like asked what happened
