"That’s not what I ant..."
Laz was surprised at Brittany’s overall change in... well... everything.
Not that he was expecting her to be the horny woman she just was, but that could be attributed to many other things. But this change in attitude was sothing that took Laz totally by surprise.
Laz sat himself down on the love seat to catch his breath while Amira was still moaning on the ground, but was starting to stir.
Brittany moved over to Laz and grabbed her purse, bringing so kind of wet wipe out of it and began cleaning Laz off. In stunned silence, Brittany took great care to clean off every part of Laz as though cleaning a valued prize. When she was done, she even collected his clothing and helped him to dress before getting dressed herself. It was only after that that she helped Amira up and got her cleaned up as well.
As they sat cuddled up to each other, the music ca to an end.
"Alright everyone. Hoped you liked that. Now I’d like to invite down a friend of mine to do a special show for us. Co on down buddy. Got to pay to earn your keep!" Leo said, pointing up to the VIP room that Laz was currently resting in.
"What the fuck?" Laz said out loud as a spot light shone on the balcony of the room. Even Brittany and Amira were taken aback by this and more than a little glad they had dressed themselves recently.
Of course, one couldn’t see in the room from below, but having the spot light on them if they were naked would have been a bit more than any of them bargained for.
Seeing this happen, Laz sighed a bit. He should have known this ’buddy’ of his would have done sothing like this, considering he was always a showman even in the past. He also figured out that Leo must have seen the video of the performance he did with Lyssa’s band back in the club in Texas. From what he had learned from Lyssa and his wives several days ago, they ended up burying the video soon afterwards, so that they could hide his identity. But the internet is forever and things can never stay completely buried. Even still, the number of people who saw it was super limited as just the bands most devoted fans. And when the video disappeared to make way for their next big announcent, album and tour dates, people forgot about it quickly.
Either way, Laz wasn’t one to be shocked for too long anymore by the things that happened. Reaching into his pouch and taking out a half face mask, he put it on and walked to the railing of the balcony before looking down over the crowd while also seeing Leo stare up at him and grin.
’Never told you could sing you bastard. And just because you did a few videos with a female group, no one ever believes when I say I know you. So now it’s ti to prove to them I’m not crazy. And why the hell are you wearing a mask?’
’Cause there is a lot of people who want dead right now... like the entire fucking country? But you didn’t know that cause it was never spoken about, right jackass? So now you want to be a performing monkey for you? Ok. Fuck you. I’ll do it my way...’
n didn’t need to exchange words to talk to each other. Sotis, a look was more than enough to say everything they wanted to say back and forth and that’s exactly what was happening hear.
"Well co on down and don’t keep us waiting. Be my encore tonight!" Leo didn’t have any bad intentions by doing this. Instead, his career had been going great and figured maybe this old friend would like a piece of the action too?
Laz didn’t bother using the stairs and instead jumped straight down from the top floor. Those underneath him scrambled to get out of the way and he hit, but did a roll as though he had been a trained stuntman. In truth, it wouldn’t have hurt even if he just hit the floor feet first, but doing so not only would have damaged the floor, but it would have also alerted those in the other VIP suite that he was way more than just an average man.
Not what he wanted.
So after standing up straight and adjusting the tie on his suit, Laz walked over to the stage as though he owned the place before stopping and taking a quick glance up. With a smile and a nod, he jumped on stage and stood next to Leo.
Compared to before, Leo was taller with more of a heavy, in your face, kind of look. He was no longer a young pretty face with a decent talent. Instead, he had found his market and his identity. Up close, Laz noticed his hair was still blue, but was inlaid with streaks of black, giving it more of a vibe and less shock value. He was still taller than Laz, but thin. Laz could tell he worked out and had muscle to him, but compared to the rock hard body Laz had underneath his clothes, he could have been a stick by comparison.
"Who’s the kid?"
"Ha. Fucking suit wearing prick."
"Like this chump knows anything about music..."
"Record it. We’re going to make this big..." Lessa said in the production booth of the club. She had been given a shock when Laz stared into the cara and smiled, as though he had been looking right at her. But then when he turned away so she just decided it must have been her imagination.
"Mam. Are you sure we should do this? Your brother might get angry since we were suppose to be shooting the show for him?"
"And we did. He’ll have his videos to promote himself... but this will be sothing on the side. Ah... besides, looks like my little bro will have his part to play as well. A Cello huh? He hadn’t played that since he was a teenager. Hope he still rembers how."
Laz was sitting in front of a decent sized piano while Leo had sohow gotten himself a cello. When Laz had finally spoken to him on stage, he just asked a simple question; What can you play? And Leo’s response was just as simple; Anything!
So how they were sitting there and Leo had no idea what he was going to do. Laz then leaned over and said a few words to him before turning back to the piano. With Leo at his back, Laz starting tickling the keys.
"It’s been a while huh?"
"You got this?" Leo asked, tuning the cello.
"Do you?"
They both laughed as the haunting sounds of the cello rang out before Laz joined in.
Lie awake
And watching you run through my head
I’m alone again
But not for long my friend
We face another day
And distance has co and taken you far away again
But I’ll see you soon my friend
And then I’ll sing you my song
I can’t go ho alone again
No, I can’t, my friend
Until then...
Eyes, I recognize
Taking back
Familiar to from so other ti
Or maybe another life
Rember our tis, and know who I am
The mory stays, until we can breathe as one again
And I’m coming back my friend
And then I’ll sing you my song
And I can’t go ho alone again
No, I can’t go ho all alone again
No, I can’t go ho all alone again
No, I can’t, my friend
Until then...
And I can’t go ho alone again
No, I can’t go ho all alone again
No, I can’t go ho all alone again
No, I can’t, my friend
Until then...
(Sully Erna- Until Then)
As the music stopped and Laz’s voice faded into nothingness, the rowdy crowd was quiet, shocked and barely able to breathe. Leo lifted his fist to the side and Laz bumped it with his own, not even bothering to look.
Cheers then erupted like an exploding volcano, drowning out everything. Sure, the song wasn’t original, but that didn’t an that hearing it live from two talented musicians didn’t give it a power all it’s own and what a power it was.
Laz didn’t have to use his energy to instill power in his voice, it was just a part of who he was, who his bloodline made him. And with the talent Leo had, it made the effect so much stronger.
Staring at him from their VIP suite, Amira and Brittany were stone silent, eyes fixated on Laz’s grinning yet covered face. Even with what happened earlier, this was the first ti they actually saw him, experienced him. Before, when they were engaged in wild, maddening sex, they all treated each other like objects. No matter how good it was, it was nothing more than an exchange of pleasure between three consenting adults. But that didn’t an they had so sort of intimate connection to one another just because of that.
Amira had just been using Laz to hopefully find her sister and maybe get so benefits on the side considering it seed like Laz had wealth.
Brittany just wanted to use the most wanted infected in the country to kill her sworn enemy before she offed herself to be with her loved one.
But after this simple five minute song, there erged sothing else within their minds. A feeling of longing, one of curiosity and desire, far more instinctual that simple greed.
They wanted to know this man, learn of him and his secrets.
"He has so many..."
"It seems we’ve barely touched the surface..."
Amira and Brittany said out loud before looking at each other and smiling.
It was at this mont that so new stars appeared in the universe of Laz’s sky. The twelve would always be in a fixed point, but there was always more room in the sky for stars that shone further away, distant, but still visible while moving along in the universe.
