part 13: anthony's revelation

"Is this the attention you deserve?"

You crane your head slightly to see what all the fuss is about as you see a crowd starting to form. From the stage the lead singer says "Those girls over there are awesome, take a hint." Noticing the absence of the headlining bands merch girl, you suspect it could be her, but you never really know with this place.

There's a gap in the crowd and you see the merch girl and the little girl you were chatting with earlier moving around perfectly synced with the song. "How cute are they?" you think to yourself.

"A beautiful girl can make you dizzy"

Next songs over, and the singer asks their names. A large portion of the audience scream back "Brianna!" This girl has more fans than your whole band... Brianna responds in no particular direction, "And this is Tabby."

A kid comes up and buys a sticker, you don't chat with him long. You wish you would have talked to her when you had the opportunity, because now that this whole crowd's got their eyes on her, you don't stand a chance. You catch her glance as she spins around, she stops and whispers to Brianna. There's a look in your direction and a laugh...

"Last chance for changing lanes, and you missed it by a mile."

Her hands up the air and the guitarist grabs it and gives it a kiss. You've definitely missed your chance. As to kick you when you're down, your bass player walks up... "Dude, those girls are hot... Oh, where are we going for dinner? Why aren't you talking to your girl, anyway...? Where is she?"

You start tuning him out after a while, not like you answered any of his questions anyway. Someone else has stole your attention for the night, too bad she's already over you.

THIS IS CHARM CITY AND YOU MISSED THE BOAT.
