Fetish For The Finite Sequel ~ Fearless Vampire Killers Fanfic

The final show

***

I help Laurence load the last bag into the back of the van “that is a lot of shopping” he says wide eyed walking into the front of the van “yeah” I mumble sitting beside him “Shane you should probably stay with the van” Luke smiles turning the key in the ignition  “what? why?” he asks sounding slightly offended “well someone should make sure the gears safe” Luke explains “well aren’t you more threatening than me?” Barrone asks. He does have a point actually. I turn to Laurence who mouths ‘Hendrix’ oh right. Hendrix will be at the flat and Barrone won’t want to leave and Hendrix will get excited then stressed when he leaves again. “India could stay with you, she’s threatening” I smile remembering the cats also at the flat. Laurence looks confused for a moment before it clicks “yeah that works” he smiles “guess I’m staying in the van too then” India sighs as we stop at a set of lights.

Laurences P.O.V:

You sure you don’t want to come meet the fans? I ask the guys variations ‘too tired’are shouted back to me by Kier, Drew and Barrone. India just says “not in the band, not my fans” which seems kind of harsh but it’s true I guess. Luke wants to take the opportunity to make sure the sound is ‘perfect’ which makes sense I guess. There’s always added pressure at home shows. I make my way outside alone. Surprisingly there’s only one girl outside. There were a few more but I assume they’ve gone to get something to drink or eat or have become impatient. The girl turns to face me and I draw in my breath.

I stare at her for a moment and her eyes flash in recognition. She’s an FVK fan then that makes it easier. Then I notice she’s weaing out merch. If I’m honest I hadn’t looked away from her face she looked just like Layla (A/N: in case you forgot she’s Laurences ex who died) I walk over ignoring the tightness in my chest. “hey” she smiles confidently, she has dimples just like Layla. I try to shake the thought quickly but it’s already planted itself in my mind “hey” I reply trying to keep myself together. “The other girls went to Camden Market I think” she smiles “oh they were your friends?” I ask intruiged “no” she laughs “they were quite excited and loud” she explains “oh right” I reply finally becoming comfortable “so you’re here alone?” “yeah I don’t have many friends” she admits her cheeks turning pink “whats your name?” I ask “Lisa” she smiles “pretty name” I smile back “not really” she says awkwardly “I like it” “I’ve hated it since I was a kid” she frowns “really? Why?” “it’s a long story” she mumbles “I have time maybe you could explain it over a drink?” fuck why did I say that?! “sure theres a pub just around the corner” she smiles. I should say no, make up an excuse, say I meant coffee instead the words “sure sounds great” come out of my mouth and I follow her away from the venue.

I can’t help think of my ‘school sweetheart’ as I watch Lisa intently as she talks about herself. She doesn’t just look like Leila she acts like her too. I hear the word piano and interrupt for a moment “sorry I didn’t catch that” I laugh gently. I don’t know why I can’t focus on her words right now “I play piano I’ve been meaning to learn one of your songs but I can’t play by ear” Leila was the same I think to myself “I could get the notes off Drew he has the chords for Mascara tears in a notepad in the van” I smile. “I’d like that” she says softly “I’d like that too” I agree leaning forward my lips meeting hers.

Kiers P.O.V:

“Laurence is taking his time” Luke sighs “you know what he’s like when he talks to fans he can’t stop” Drew laughs playing with the tab on his can “you’re right hey you heard from Crilly?” Barrone asks changing the subject “yeah he text they’re stuck in traffic, Iris won’t shut up about you apparently” Drew replies and the mood becomes tense suddenly “hey I’m going to go find Laurence” I say quietly slipping out of the room and heading for the front door.
