CHAPTER ONE
ZAC'S POV: 3 Months Earlier
"I can't believe they're late," my older brother Isaac mutters as he paces back and forth in front of the folding table I'm sitting at. Just then, a girl with long jet-black hair with pink streaks through it, comes hurrying through the door, four guys trailing behind her.
"Sorry we're late," she apologizes a bit breathless. "But you know girls: always fashionably late."
MEL'S POV
"I can't believe we're so late!" I exclaim quietly watching the numbers light up on the elevator.
"We wouldn't be so late if someone had gotten up on time," Chuck grumbles.
"Maybe if someone hadn't turned off my alarm, I could have gotten up when I was supposed to," I retort. The elevator jerks to a stop, dings, and the doors open. I rush down the hall and throw open the door to room 405.
"Sorry we're late. But you know girls: always fashionably late," I apologize.
"Plug in and play," Isaac instructs tersely, walking around the table to sit.
My band plugs their guitars and bass into the provided amplifiers while Sal sits down at the drums. I take off my flip-flops and pick up a microphone. After the quickest sound-check ever, we begin.
"Hey, we're Late Night Romance and we are so glad to be here." I start to move with the thump of Aaron's bass.
"So if we fell down a well would I save you or myself? I've got a tendency, I'm known for cutting my own nose off just to spite my... So now you see what's in me and you think you might be strong enough to be the first one standing up to me. I know you're dying just to get on my good side, but I keep turning around. I know you're dying just to show me what you've lost and what you've found. Don't you know I made you? Now, baby, I will break you. Don't mess around, don't mess around with my life. Don't you know I made you? Now, baby, I will break you. Don't mess around, don't mess around with my love."
We sing our allotted three songs and then make our way over to the Hanson brothers. We shake hands with them and introduce ourselves.
"So, initial thoughts?" I ask, hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. Isaac, who had seemed so grumpy at first, smiles widely.
"You guys are great," he says. "You've got a certain kind of style and flair that I haven't seen in a while."
"Yeah, I agree. I'd definitely like to hear more," Taylor adds. I beam a smile at him.
"Thanks. We'd definitely like to play more for you. Say, on tour?" The brothers give a quiet collective chuckle.
"It was really nice meeting all of you and seeing you perform. We should have an answer for you by this afternoon," Isaac tells us.
"Thank you so much for just giving us a listen," I reply. We all shake hands again before my bandmates and I leave. Now comes the waiting game.
ZAC'S POV
As soon as the girl with black and pink hair and her boys leave, Taylor pipes up.
"I really like them."
"Me too," Isaac nods. They both look at me expectantly. I shrug.
"They're okay." My older brothers share a look then turn to look at me like I've grown another head.
"Are you feeling okay?" Taylor asks. It's my turn to give him a look.
"What are you talking about?" I ask.
"Well, you only seemed like you were drooling over Mel," Isaac says.
I feel my cheeks flame.
"Was I that obvious?" Taylor shakes his head no.
"Probably not to any of them. But we can read you like a book," he explains.
"We shouldn't pick her band just 'cuz she's hot," I tell them. Isaac rolls his eyes.
"We're not," he replies. My cheeks burn a little hotter.
"Well, okay, as long as we're not."
No one says anything for a moment. I look down at the rug, scuffing the toe of my sneaker against it.
"They're definitely my choice for our opening act," Isaac speaks up.
"I agree," Taylor replies nodding. My brothers look at me.
"Are we making this unanimous?" Isaac asks. I nod slowly.
"Yeah, I think we are."
