Rockstar Serenade: The Chorus

Ch 13.2: Irony Affairs, Welcome To The Charts

TREVOR~

Top five. Top five this week.

Due to the trend, I expected it to reach top 20, but I never imagined that it would reach this far. Last week, it made it to the top ten. This week, it marked fifth place. 

I never felt so alive. 

I've been staring at Billboard's website for quite a while now. I still can't believe it that this is actually happening. The world finally recognizes and appreciates our music, be it our old rock album or the new post hardcore one. I can't help but smile every time I think about it.

My band just arrived in Garden Grove two hours ago and headed straight to our record company to chill for the meantime. Slouching with my one leg crossing the other and staring at my phone rested on my tighs, I peek at Nathan and Rick through the fringes of my hair. I'm still reading reviews and comments about our latest album from different sites but I'm starting to be curious about what our bassist and drummer are talking about. I pause my iPod so that I could hear them.

"So, Poxy's got five tattoos all in all. One underneath the navel, on the right wrist, behind the ear, on the left shoulder blade and on the right bicep."

"I find tattoos on the shoulder blade hot, man. Poxy sure knows how to dress to kill."

"I like her raven crow behind her ear."

"It also says here that her favorite dish is pizza, one with lots of meat and ham."

"Aside from music, one of her talents would be dancing hip hop."

"Why would she dance hip hop and make screaming music?"

"What a stupid question, Rick."

"Thanks for the helpful reply, Nathan."

"You're welcome."

There isn't a day that passed in which they never talked about Kailey ever since we shot a music video with her. They tell me she's a good friend and a fun girl to be with, but that just isn't the same with me. Well, the video's done and that's all that matters. In the upcoming tour, I can just be as emotionless around her like she does to me. The tour will last for three weeks, and for most of the time, I will be with my band.

"And she says she finds attractiveness in a guy's hair? What does she mean by that?"

"Probably something she never found yet. As far as I can remember, the media has never seen her being sweet and romantic with a guy."

"She never met a guy with the standards she looks for in a guy's hair?"

"Maybe. Or maybe she's a lesbian."

"No way, Nathan! Not that I'm against homosexuality but it would be my frustration it if she's isn't a girl."

"Calm down, Rick. She doesn't seem like a lesbo, though. Most of the time she's being girlish and giggly. We'll just stick to the assumption that she has never yet found the perfect guy's hair."

"Sucks, dude. If only she stated here how an attractive hair looks like. I'd go straight to a barbershop right away."

"I bet she'll still reject you."

"You never support me in anything, Nathan."

If Kailey finds attractiveness in hair and she liked me back in high school, did she like my hair? I have always had one hairstyle since high school - the natural fluff with longer strands swept to the right side of my face and fringes covering my forehead. After thinking for a while, I realize it can't be the hair since I still have the style now and yet she hates me.
