    Logan carried the speakers with the help of Pete and placed them on the wooden stage. "Thanks for coming." Logan muttered, hooking up the speakers. Pete smiled, "Of course I came, I can't wait to hear you play and sing." "Thanks." Logan smiled and patted his back. He cleared his throat, "I'm going to go get the rest of the stuff, you going to be okay?" Pete nodded, "I think so." Logan noddded, turned and went back to the truck.

    "So Thomas," Mrs. Watson smiled, "How's work?" Thomas wiped his mouth with a napkin and cleared his throat, "It's going good, we got new shipments yesterday and we're going to distribute them to other company's for a profit." Rene rolled her eyes, twirling her pasta with her fork. Her cell phone started to ring. She reached into her purse, rose and left the room. "Hello?" She answered. "Rene!" Britney exclaimed, "I'm in town, surprise!" Rene gasped, "That's awesome when did you get here?" "A little bit ago. Hey, I guess some small band's in town on their first gig, you want to check them out tonight?" Britney asked, the sound of traffic in the background. Rene laughed, "Sure, anything to get out of here." "With Thomas and your parents aren't you?" Britney asked, laughing. She slightly nodded, "Yeah, you want to rescue me?" Britney laughed some more, "I'll be over in a second, what's your address again?"

    Logan walked behind the bar and poured a glass of water. He looked up as a bleach blonde haired, tan skinned female walked in. She was wearing ripped jeans and a 'Afi' tanktop. She saw him and smiled, "There you are." Logan smiled, "Hey Jade." She walked around the bar, wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. He kissed back and smiled down at her, "Excited for the show?" Jade slightly nodded, "Hell yeah, I'm with the singer, I get to watch all the girls google at you and know you're all mine." Logan laughed, "That is true."

    Thomas cleared his throat, "I have something to say." Rene downed her glass of wine and looked over, "Hmm?" He smiled, turned to face her and took a small box out of his pocket. She put the glass down and started choking. He frowned, "Are you alright?" Rene coughed, covering her mouth. She slightly nodded, still coughing. Thomas smiled, "As long as you're okay... I have a question for you Rene." Mrs. Watson gasped and covered her mouth, smiling as big as a smile can get. He opened the box revealing a really expensive ring, "Will you marry me?" Rene stopped coughing and she looked at him wide eyed, "Seriously?"He nodded, "I'm being very serious." Rene nervously laughed, "I don't know what to say..." "Say yes..." Thomas and Mrs. Watson happened to say in unison. "Can I think about it?" She asked, her voice trembling. Thomas frowned, "Whats there to think about?" "I'm sorry," Rene sighed, rubbing her head,"I drank so much wine I can't think clearly... I just need some time to breathe." He nodded, "That's fine, you'll tell me tonight then?" She nodded, the doorbell rang and she quickly rose.

    Rene opened the door, eyes watery. Britney's smile faded, "Rene?" "I can't breathe.." Rene frowned, "It's too much... I can't breathe..." Britney eyes widened as Rene hugged her tight and started to cry. She frowned and wrapped her arms around her, "What's wrong sweety?" Thomas entered the hallway, "Is she alright?" "Tell him I had too much to drink..." Rene whispered. Britney looked over at Thomas and slightly laughed, "Yes, she's just dizzy... was she drinking?" He slightly nodded, "Should I get her some water?" "Yes!" Britney smiled, "Poor Rene could never hold her alcohol..." Thomas ignore her remark and walked back to the kitchen. Rene sighed, "I can too." Britney laughed, "Well he doesn't know that." She sighed, "Let's get out of here before he comes back." Rene nodded and they quickly walked out, quietly shutting the door behind them.

     Brody sat on the stage's edge and practiced a few tunes on his acoustic guitar. Logan tapped the microphone acouple times to make sure it was working. He jumped down and sat at a table. Pete smiled, "Nervous?" Logan nodded, " A little.. I am after all about to sing a song about one of my x's and I'm pretty sure Jade thinks it's about her." Pete chuckled, "Good luck explaining that one." Logan laughed, "I know... I'm destined to be single after my first performance." Pete couldn't help but laugh.

    "So what happened?" Britney asked as they walked down the sidewalk. Rene sighed, "Thomas asked me to marry him." "Awww Rene," Britney smiled, " then what's wrong?" Rene frowned, " I was already given a ring." Britney stopped dead in her tracks and turned to face her, "No... you promised you would stop thinking about him... you have to let him go besides, that's just a promise ring." Rene shook her head, continuing to walk, "I've tried to stop thinking about him and I know it's just a promise ring Britney but you have no idea what it's like to be that close and have it taken away the next day.... simple things remind me of him then he's all I think about for the next couple days...I just wish I knew where he was and if he was happy."  They entered the bar where music was playing and people were crowded around infront of a stage. "No other love, Mama I'm flyin'. No other love, Mama I'm flyin'. I can go, I can go anywhere. No other love, Can take me there, ooh. No other love, Mama I'm flyin'. No other love, Mama I'm flyin.'" A voice filled the air. Girls cheered and Rene felt herself calm down. They sat at the bar. "Water." Rene ordered. Britney smiled, "I'll take a beer." They both turned to face the back of the crowd, barely able to see the band. "He's cute." Britney nodded towards the guitarist. "His voice is soothing.." Rene sighed, sitting back. "He's not singing," Britney explained, pointing a little to the left, "He is." Rene stretched her neck to see the lead singer and her eye's widened as she dropped her glass. Britney looked closely at him then gasped, "Oh my god.." Rene quickly rose and ran out of the bar. "Wait!" Britney pleaded, running after her.

   "I had no idea, I'm so sorry.." Britney frowned, finding Rene hyperventilating outside. She held her neck as she breathed in and out. "Is he really in there?" Rene asked, eyes watering again. Britney nodded, "Yes... that's him." Rene sighed, holding her head, "Everything's reallly starting to spin." "Well then don't look now.." Britney frowned. Rene followed her gaze and saw Logan kissing a blonde haired girl on the stage. She looked away and started running.
