Chapter Four- Let's Just Have Fun
Drew's POV
After the show we got on the tour bus for some of the next destinations. Cleo and I caught each other's gaze and she instantly smiled. Looks like someone finally figured out what Closer was about. I guess you could call it my apology song. Not many assholes would leave their almost girlfriend at the time, at a bar alone. While he left with a bunch of other chicks. Nope. That takes a special kind of asshole...me. I apologized to Cleo a million times I even got Alex to call her for me. Eventually she gave in. Now we're right back where we started. Accept this time she doesn't have the same trust in me she used to. This time her guard was up. And I had no idea how I was ever going to break that wall down.
"I'm fucking exhausted." Alex said as he collapsed on the couch. Cleo was sitting on the counter top pounding a redbull. I was sitting at the table working on a track.
"We should probably sleep." Cleo said.
"Or we could drink more." I suggested.
"The man does have a point." Alex said.
"Dammit you boys are going to kill my liver...fuck it. Open up the tequila." she laughed as Alex grabbed the Patrone from the freezer.
"Oh my god if you won't date Drew date me!" Alex yelled.
"Uh fuck no." I said looking at Alex, us both jokingly getting ready to throw punches.
"Girls...girls...you're both pretty." Cleo said as she lined up the shot glasses. "This is against my better judgement but fuck it. To Charlottesville!" she toasted, as we as each threw back a tequila shot. While Alex worked on some demos, Cleo and I went to sleep. Her in her bunk and me in mine. But that didn't last long. I tugged at the curtain of her bunk.
"Drew Taggart...is the bus on fire? I haven't slept in days." Cleo whispered half asleep.
"Wanna cuddle?" I asked her.
"Ugh Drew...we have to stop doing this. Everyone is getting the wrong idea. We're not going down this road again." she looked into my eyes. I just couldn't stop thinking about her.
"Alright fine then let's just have fun. We can have fun as friends can't we?" I tried to persuade her.
"Ugh you're lucky I'm horny and a little drunk. Come here." she said as I climbed up into her bunk.
Next thing we knew night turned into day. We woke up the next morning staring at each other. We both couldn't help but smile. "It's that damn smile and those eyes...I fall for it every time." Cleo said as she stared at me.
"I'll get you to trust me again, if it takes this entire tour." I said looking at her. "You get me, what we have, it's real." I said to her. She bit her lip as she searched through the small cubby hole like space for her shirt.
"Drew" Cleo said looking at me. "Let's just have fun, we can't complicate this. Feelings ruin shit, trust me." she said as she opened the curtain. Alex was standing there in his underwear. "Fuck Alex!" Cleo yelled startled.
"Called that one." he laughed as he searched his suitcase for pants. I jumped down from her bunk as she ran around the bus making sure we had everything we needed for the set tonight. She was blasting Halsey's new album Hopeless Fountain Kingdom. I recognized the song. "Walls Could Talk" Cleo was singing to it as she put on an oversized band tee and thigh high boots. I laughed as I stared at her.
"And we both hope there's something. But we keep frontin, and I'm thinkin damn if these walls could talk." she sang as she made breakfast for everyone.
"Someone got some last night." Rory laughed as he walked onto the tour bus. Cleo rolled her eyes at him.
"Rory would you go film Alex eating a banana or something." She sassed him.
"I could just as easily film you and Drew fucking.
My views would definitely go up." Rory laughed as he literally filmed Alex eating a banana. Cleo just rolled her eyes at him as I walked in.
"Cleo." I said as I walked up to her, wrapping my arms around her waist from behind.
"Dammit Tags...what did I say." Cleo said as she made eye contact with me.
"You're playing our song though." I said as I pointed to her laptop. She was blasting "Walls Could Talk" by Halsey.
"If these wall could talk" Cleo said as she looked at me, biting her lip again. The sexual tension was almost too much to bare.
"Do we have time?" I asked her. She looked at me debating on what to do. I know what she wanted to do. But she didn't trust herself not to fall. This time I was going to make it my goal to catch her.
"Fuck...fine." she said as I pulled her to the back of the bus. Everyone had already finished breakfast and were in the arena setting up. "This is a one time thing. The fun is for night time only when works done." Cleo said as I kissed up and down her neck.
"Whatever you want." I said as we crawled into my bunk. 20 minutes later we ran into the arena, My skin was flushed and so was hers. It was obvious where we were. Alex patted me on the back as we ran through soundcheck. Cleo had her headset on. As she made sure everything was in place for the show. "Alex" I said as he messed around with the mixer.
"Drew?" he said.
"Can we remix this Halsey song? And how fast can we do it? If we worked on it for two hours straight could we have it done before tonight's show?" I asked him.
"Yeah we should be able to, this wouldn't by any chance be the song...you know like "the song" song. Alex said staring at me then at Cleo who was talking to Rory backstage.
"Uh well..." I stuttered as Cleo came up to us.
"Tags...you and Alex have meet and greets starting tonight. Prepare to be on your best behavior. The girl's ages range from 16 to 21. So be somewhat age appropriate. And Alex don't pants Drew or any of the other crew members. I literally can't believe I have to say that." Cleo laughed.
"Will be good we promise!" Alex and I said making her laugh.
"We're going to need a lot of tequila to make it through this one." Cleo said as Alex and I ran backstage. While she was taking care of the merchandise and setting up the banners for the meet and greet pictures.
"So did you email Halsey about it?" I said to Alex.
"Yeah your good by the way she thinks its and I quote "cute as fuck that drew and his girl fuck to one of my songs." Alex said imitating Halsey.
"Oh dude shut up..." I said as I input the mp3 into our sound mixer. After two hours of fucking around with the song we figured it out.
"Boys...." Cleo yelled as she opened the door. I stopped the track as fast as I could. "We're starting meet and greets." She yelled. "Meet me in the front in literally 5." she said as she gave us both the "I'm watching you" gesture. Once she shut the door I started the track again. Alex and I finished the polished version and ran to the meet and greets, right before they officially started.
