part 10: shelly's swept away

“I’m Nick,” he says at almost a whisper directly in your ear. The second band is on stage now, so you guess it was necessary to be so close. “I’m Shelly,” you say to that very cute boy who just walked up to you.

"I would like to introduce you to the finer things"

“Are you in a band?” “Yea.” “Which one?” “That one.” He points at their merch table with a really pretty girl behind it and a little girl standing in front, she looks a bit upset and you kind of wonder why.

You tell Nick how Anthony invited you to the show, but that you missed their set. “Oh, that guys cool.” “You know him?” “Well… not personally, but we’ve played a show or two with them… I think.”

"We're playing pretend to keep me here"

Nick tells you about a party happening tonight, but before you get to mention dinner, Nick asks if you want to meet the rest of his band. “Maybe a cute girl will get them off the laptop in the van,” he says. You blush a little and forget all about that boy you came to see and the dinner you promised to go to.

Nick puts his arm around you. “Shall we?” he says, with a coy smile on his face. You’re definitely beginning to like this place.

"You're such a sucker for a sweet talker"

You fail to turn your head and notice the boy you came to see, watching you walk away like a bad teen movie. It’s not until you walk out of the door that you notice people are staring. By that time it’s too late, and Nick seems to be loving the attention.

It's CHARM CITY and people are always watching.
