Unitl I Break

Back to chapter 6 time frame....

“Well hey since I’m just standing around, and I have no idea who I’m waiting for… Do you guys need some extra help, I mean I might as well be doing something productive?” she asked with a raised eyebrow and a friendly I-want-to-help-you smile.

“Yeah definitely, we’ve still got a ton of shit to pull out and we play first thing this morning.” Mikey said as he turned to go unload more equipment; Seville following behind him, Frank beside her.

When they reached the trailer doors they were hit with the urge to laugh.

While two boys were lifting a large amp, another with a huge afro sat on the ground tangled in a sea of chords and wires. It looked as though had been draped in them from head to toe.

Frank lost it first, “nice look Ray,”

“You know what Frank I oughtta…” but he was cut off by Mikey

“Oughta finish untangling those wires…”

“or shower…..” added one of the boys carrying the drum set. He had the most beautiful hazel eyes and shaggy black hair. Seville couldn’t help but stare, he was gorgeous, he was a bit bigger than the rest of the boys, but she liked it.

“psh, like you should talk Gerard, it’s been what? A week?”

The boys set the amp down outside the trailer, the boy, whom Seville assumed was Gerard lifted his arm and took a big whiff, “ahhh, the sweet scent of a week’s worth of grime, but don’t worry Ray, one day you too will be fortunate enough to collect this scent in my fall line of perfumes, Eau du Gee.”

“wow, I ‘m truly speechless…” Ray said, “I didn’t think it was possible but I think your ego has gotten even bigger, what do you think Matt,” Ray laughed lightly turned to address the dark haired boy that had been carrying the amp with Gerard.

Matt simply shook his head in agreement, “now that you mention it, it is kinda swollen.”

After the laughter ceased the boys went back to unloading the trailer, Seville looked at Frank and said, “so just grab anything?”

“yeah, oh right, hey guys this is Seville, Seville the guys,” Frank said grabbing a pedal board from the trailer and walking it to the stage.

Ray was the first to address her, “Hey, Seville…nice to meet ya, hmm Seville?” he thought for a sec, “strange name…”

“Yeah my Dad had a thing for cars,”

this made the group laugh, “no I was named after the place my family is from, Seville, Scotland…still kinda goofy though, Hey how about I untangle that web of wires for you while you get your instruments set up, I can’t help too much there if I don’t know how ya like em!”

“Hey yeah that works….we’re gonna have to keep you around, you’re a thinker…” Ray said

“Yeah this band stopped thinking a long time ago,” Matt added.

Seville managed to figure out the wires just in time to plug the boys in…. they really needed roadies well at least more than there manager Brian, whom Seville met while helping to get their sound board connected. He was amazed that she managed to get the boys plugged into the main board within five minutes, absolutely amazed he was.

“I’m gonna have to tell John about you…”

“tell him what?” she said all cutesy

“Tell him….. you are incorrigible.” Brian said laughing at Seville who was batting her eyelashes

“Oh well in that case, he already knows! That’s why he hired me,”

“Oh so you’re the new chick… I don’t mean that in a bad way” Brian said , “So You’re teching for Walls of Jericho though right?”

“Yup yup, why d’you ask?” she asked kinda sensing that Brian was getting at something else

“Well John told me to ask, well to ask I guess; I’m sure you noticed the boys are a bit underhanded, and we could really use some extra help setting up tearing down, selling merch and stuff, and I just wanted to see if maybe when your not doing things for the WOJ you wouldn’t mind helping us out.”

“Yeah sure, no problem I’m mean its not like there’s not plenty of help to sell merch for the WOJ kids,”

“eh that’s what happens when you get big, you get help, assistants, professional techs…”

“I’m professional!” she said defensively brushing “the dirt off” her shoulders.

“No no I didn’t mean it like that it’s jus…”

“Save it, I’m just playing, sure I’ll help out, in fact I’d love too”

They finished listening to My Chem’s set. They were really good Seville thought. The drumming could be a bit better but, eh it wasn’t anything major, maybe it was just an off day she figured, they were the first to play that morning after all. Plus, she was way to distracted trying to figure out a.) how frank managed to play while he was rolling around on the ground and b.) why Gerard was so good at make-up. While he was singing he shot her a look, a look that sent shivers down her spine and gave her goose bumps, though it was most likely nothing she felt as though pale hues made his eyes look even more intense than when she had first looked into them. For some reason she was instantly attracted to him, but with a voice like his, who could blame her? The boys finished up with a song about vampires, which Seville was totally into ever since she was little, then she turned to Brian.

“Hey you wouldn’t know how to get a hold of John here would you, I think he forgot about me.” Seville asked Brian who indeed, did have a number to reach John at while on the tour, and sure enough…

“Oh shit Ville I totally forgot about you!”

“Glad to know you care John, but in all seriousness, what should I be doing right now?”

“You should be meeting the head tech over there, Ryan Jacobs, and then selling merch until WOJ needs setting up.

There was no better way, in Seville’s mind, to get to spend time with these very talented, so far entertaining, and adorable boys!

Seconds after she hung up the phone Seville was approached by a middle aged guy with a long goatee who introduced himself as Ryan. He showed her where everything she could ever need was and gave her a schedule of times that sorta thing while the next band set up. Afterwards Seville decided to head back towards the merch tents and try and get a better grip on what was going on. Just as she turned to head out she felt someone leap onto her back.

“HELLOOO FRRIIEEND!!” she heard someone shout in her ear and kindly dismount.

Seville laughing turned to see Frank and the motley crue that is My Chemical Romance walking her direction.

“You’re a friendly one aren’t you?” she said joyfully to Frank, ho shrugged his shoulders in a whatcha-gonna-do manner.

“Yeha be careful he’s a licker …” Matt added

Seville leaned into Frank’s side and said, “No worries, I’m a licker too…” and licked the entire side of Franks face, who seemed if nothing else, aroused by the slurp while the other boys cringed;
Ray retorted, “Oh god, another licker… this means were never going to be drool free on this tour, and as if Frank wasn’t bad enough”

“At least she’s a hott licker…” Mikey said making Seville blush like mad and making the group snicker, Frank still decided to attack Ray.

“You know you like it when I lick you Ray baby!” Frank said leaping onto him, licking a volatile Ray. While those two duked it out Gerard attempted to keep the group moving and said to Seville

“Oh headed back towards the merch tent?” said Gerard, now changed into some jeans and hoodie from the dark black velvet suit he’d been wearing during their performance.

“Yup, you?”

“Yup who better to sell our stuff, than well, than us?”

“Sooooo i guess we're off to see te wizard, the wonder wizard of….” Matt said taking her arm escort style, the two of them frolicking ahead.
