He's famous now. He won't remember you. I paced the room, pulling up the old worn out rug a little bit each time. I haven't seen Kirk since he joined Metallica and I had planned to keep it that way. We weren't friends but we didn't hate each other either. Kirk being a few years older than me was really close to my brother, Max. I had been just about 17 when he flew out to New York to audition and I had never seen him sense. He had called my brother and said hey to both of us but I never acknowledged it as him speaking to me. He never did before so why would he now?
I had done everything to get him to notice me and it never worked, he was my brothers friend not mine but I had loved him for as long as they had been friends.
"Acelee! Come down! Kirk and his friends are here!" Max yelled as I walked down the stairs checking my outfit once again, a simple pair of ripped up leather jeans, a black tank, and combat boots.
"Ace. Meet James, Cliff, and Lars." My brother said as I looked over at the group of guys. James seamed very shy at the moment, Cliff seamed pretty chill and Lars was focused on staring at me. "Hey Lars eyes off." I snapped my fingers in his face and he jumped slightly. "Sorry..." He mumbled as I sat down on the couch next to James and Cliff, who had both made themselves at home. "Hey. James, are you OK?" I asked as he nodded and smiled. I'm shy to but I don't like people being shy around me, weird I know. "Your not getting away with that here!" I laughed as I jumped into his lap and started to tickle him. He smiled and laughed a deep laugh as he pushed me slightly. "Come on James! Speak to me! Don't go into the light! Your to young!" I yelled as he finally gave in and yelled OK with a laugh.
"Where's Acelee?" I herd Kirk ask as James settled down and stopped laughing. "Right here child! And it's Ace." I yelled as I jumped up but only to be pulled down by Cliff and James. "He has a surprise.." Cliff mouthed with a smile. "I thought your parents taught you better, Kirk." I laughed as he looked up at me and dropped the water gun that was clutched in his hand. "No! Your not the cute little 17 year old I left!" He yelled as he pulled me into a tight hug. "I'm 19 now. People change and people becomes the biggest fan of one of the best bands ever!" I yelled as I pulled up the tank top a little to show the Metallica logo I had tattooed on my hip. "Dude no way!" Lars exclaimed as he spun me around and pulled my shirt up. "That's so Rad man!" Cliff yelled as James stood in the back quietly. "What did I say about being shy!" I yelled as James flinched a little and I smiled. "Fine I'll be social so I never have to experience that ever again... How about you come to practice with us. Kirk said you have got some skill with a bass." James laughed slightly as Cliff and Lars threw their arms around my shoulders and smiled. "She has no choice."
I smiled as I looked around the warehouse they practiced in. According to Cliff it's a lot more fun here than at their place. "So.. Ace, why don't you show off your skill." Cliff said as he tossed the bass my way. "I'm nothing compared to you! Your a God for Satan's sake!" I yelled as he laughed and sat down next to me on the floor. "But I'm just a guy and I'm your friend so why be nervous?" He asked as I smiled and looked down at the bass that sat in my lap. Cliff had a way of making you feel OK, even when you feel out of place. I haven't known him long, barley an hour, but I can tell well be great friends. "Come on Ace. There's no need to be shy. The guys aren't even watching, it's just me and you." He smiled as I looked up from the bass. "Fine but your going to disown me after this." I laughed as he shook his head and laughed. "I highly doubt that."
"Hey guys, I'm going to stop at the liquor store." Lars laughed slightly as all the guys looked his way. "Guessing your all going?" Lars asked as they all nodded but Kirk. "I'm going to walk Ace home." He said as he wrapped his tanned arm around me. "Yours or mine?" I asked as he pointed to himself.
"Movies?" Kirk asked as I fell down onto his bed. "What ya got?" I asked as he pulled out Boogeyman. "That's my favorite movie!" I yelled as Kirk laughed and played it. He ran and jumped onto the bed smiling and laughing as we both bounced up into the air.
Throughout the whole night Kirk and I watched movies and talked. By the end of Rose Red I was staring at Kirk. When he watched movies he got really into it and when a jump scare came up he would just about have a heart attack. It was so adorable I just can't help but smile. "What ya staring at?" Kirk asked as I smiled and shook my head. "You know when we we're younger, like two years ago basically, I was completely in love with you. I tried to avoid you because of the whole age thing and your brother. I wanted you so bad, Ace you have no idea how times I'd be staying with your brother at your parents house and I'd sneak up to your room and sit outside the door thinking about going in and maybe telling you what I'm saying now. Man the things I herd on those nights are still so clear in my mind. All the times you we're taking about me on the phone with Ari." He rambled on and on but the words I was in love with you kept playing in my mind. Key word was. "What do you mean Kirk?" I asked quietly as he wrapped his arm around me and pulled me closer. "All those nights I wished I was in there with you, I regret not telling you sooner. I could have taken you to New York with me and we could have toured with the band." He whispered as he leaned down and gently kissed my head. "Don't regret it. Fate has a weird way of working." I said just as the credits started to roll. "I'm still in love with you." He whispered softly. Just what I wanted to hear all these years. All those nights I had wished I was with him and now I am, it's like a dream. A dream filled with horrid nightmares, comic books and my dark Knight.
"I've always loved you Kirk. Always will. Nothing can change that."
