Thread: Rock Me (Candira and AtomSmasher)

For the first time in a long time, Ryan was grinning ear to ear. Just the sound of Natalie's voice was something that made him happy. Andrea had hated when he talked with her, but for whatever reason, the bassist had become rapidly good friends with the fan of the band, a service that most anyone who was rabid about the band would kill for. Maybe it was because they had met at one of the band's first shows, even before Andrea and he had started dating. Maybe it was because she seemed to know so much about them, but he was the only one to have given her a chance, and he was the only one that stayed in fairly constant contact with her. Yeah, although I am unsure about some of the people auditioning. Most of them just saw a flyer. It's not like we have some strenuous process of auditioning. Besides, we are still missing a member. He said into the phone, watching Roxxi and Ike exchange hugs. Well, what is some of the gossip surrounding the band now? He asked her, figuring she kept up with what the band was doing. There would have to be tons of news after Andrea's death, and Ryan had been sort of a shut in, he had no idea what was going on with the other people in the band. Even Ike had been a little secretive about what he had been doing. --------- The man gave her a hug and looked towards the dishes with large steaming piles of food on them. Woah, you trying to find your next boyfriend here? He asked her, giving her a peck on the lips. No one was really sure what Ike and Roxxi's relationship were, hell, not even they did. It seemed to just be something that was more on the flirty side. Making his way towards the table and grabbing one of the paper plates, Ike started piling food up on it before he made his way back towards the table. It was mostly finger food, and he did his best not to wipe any of the grease from the fried food on his pants. It was a task he didn't do well at all with. They were still waiting for their last member, and Ryan couldn't seem to take the phone away from his ear. Ryan had migrated to the other side of the small space, and Ike took a seat next to Roxxi at the table. He knew that he should probably stop eating, but a few plates in, Ike was gripping his stomach, listening to it churn and moan about how full it was. He hoped things started soon, after all, they were here to audition a singer, not stuff their faces. --------- The man known as Clint was finally ready. Wearing his usual jean and polo combo, he grabbed his guitar and shoved it into the back seat of his car. He wasn't running late or anything, Roxxi had wanted him to show up forty five minutes early. He was happy to oblige, the band was everything to him, though he was one of the first to move on after Andrea's death. It wasn't that he didn't care for her and the death was completely unexpected, but Clint was the type of guy that didn't really care for drama, and drama was sure to follow after Ryan and Andrea had started dating. Clint had told them it was a bad idea, but why listen to Clint? Pulling up to the space, he parked his car and grabbed guitar slinging it over his shoulder. As soon as he slid the door open, his senses were overloaded with the sound of great smelling food, most likely from Roxxi's parent's shop. Closing the door behind him, he made a beeline towards the food and made a slight wave towards the other band members. Taking his seat on the other side of Roxxi, he was fairly preoccupied with the food in front of him to say much more than little mumbles and grumbles inbetween bites.
