This night was not going how I’d planned

I tried to ignore her as I sang Just another woroupie She sure as hell wasabout her AI’d seek her out after we finished playing but nohile we played, I had no attention to give her

She got to the front row and leant against the stage, her posture alone a big “fuck off” to h she drewtoat her She was hot and she knew it But theon my mind

Now that she was closer, it hit ed so much, with her hair bleached white blond and her eyes rimmed with black liner, with her body filled out so every nise her anywhere

Jake McGowan’s kid sister

That look in her eyes scared er and resent myself She knehat she knew and she was definitely after so If I told her the truth, she’d never believe ht was soive her

The rest of the band joinedas though she wasn’t even there

I’d wanted to put my past behind me and start anew In the back of s would coht away But today was the day And I never thought vengeance would be wrapped up in such a hot package

Dee had had a crush onas I could remember Hell, you’d have had to be blind not to notice that kid traipsing behind me like a lost puppy She’d been cute back then Cute and precocious, and way too young I had no interest in h school myself If I even shot a feords in her direction, she stammered and blushed and ran away

Even if she’d been older, she wasa stick in a hornet’s nest I had way too much self-preservation to mess with that Jake protected her like she was a baby bird Actually, I think Jake liked that she crushed on ht not be so hands-off If he’d still been around, I’d have pitied any guy who dated her Jake judged all other men on himself and he’d been no saint, sure as hell

But now, if it wasn’t for those eyes, blazing with hate but still those same eyes, and that curl of the mouth exactly like Jake’s, I’d have never known her

Even Jake would’ve had his work cut out protecting her now Firm, perky breasts that were perfectly showcased by the dress she wore A tiny waist And the swagger of a woot what she wanted

But, when I looked her, I saw beyond her I saw that carnage and the led steel I heard the last whimper that JakeI could possibly do I couldn’t look at her I couldn’t reht I couldn’t think about that and continue playing I couldn’t only pretend she didn’t exist

I went into the next song with sweat beading on my broiped it off with the back of my hand Even my hands were sweaty, so s, but Iand the one after that

Fabian shot ame even if the crowd didn’t pick up on it I was never offreach e Of course, he had questions

She hadn’tme to death while I played or what, but she reroupie would’ve hip buht for the front position but no one went near her She radiated a darkness that held people off She was still just a kid, really She’d only be twenty or so She should be radiating sunshine and girliness but that shadow had row up too fast And I was the bastard responsible for that
