Chapter 9: I'd Do Anything

I woke up in my bed at what felt like the ungodliest of hours. Mikey was curled up against my stomach snoring like some kind of demon. Aw shit, don’t tell me… I frantically felt around for my phone on the nightstand. I quickly grabbed and unlocked it, nearly blinding myself in the process, and checked my contacts for CC’s number to make sure I hadn’t made it all up. When I found it, I squealed so loudly that it made Mikey wake up with a startled snort.
“Aw, I’m sorry, baby boy.” I cooed as I reached under the blankets and stroked his head. He gave my hand a sniff then sneezed and put his head on my belly and went back to sleep. I checked the time on my phone. 5:30am? Fuck! My alarm goes off in thirty minutes, I may as well stay up. I made the decision to stay in bed and goof around on my phone instead of doing something useful like, checking the mail, making a grocery list, or getting a head start on the day because fuck being a responsible adult before seven in the morning. I started going through my picture gallery and realized that at some point last night I had made the rookie mistake of leaving CC unattended with my phone. He had to have taken at least thirty crazy face selfies with various other band members including Austin Carlile and Alan Ashby. As I scrolled further down, I saw a few pictures of me and all the guys and a couple of just me and CC, none of which I remember taking. Must’ve been those damn Gummi Bears. There was one picture that I just couldn’t stop looking at. It was one of me with my head on his shoulder and he had this big, goofy grin on his face and…damn, we look like we could be a cute couple. With that thought, I slipped into a sweet little day dream about what that would be like. I was very rudely snapped out of it by Alex, who barged in and made Mikey start barking under the blankets.
“Hey, you awake yet?” he asked as he leaned in through the door
“No. I’m fast asleep, couldn’t you tell by my obviously closed eyes and snoring?” I said completely deadpan
“Good, I need to ask you a favor.” He said and sat down on my bed. He didn’t look like his usual chirpy self, which already told me everything I needed to know.
“You and Damien broke up?” I asked. He looked down and whimpered a small ‘yeah’. “You need me to get some Ben & Jerry’s for the office?” He nodded and I crawled out from underneath my blankets (much to Mikey’s disdain) and gave him a hug. “Don’t worry, girl, I got you covered.” I said as I gave him a pat on the back and went about getting ready.
Maybe forty minutes later, I was stepping off the bus about three stops early in the part of town that tried to avoid as much as possible. This was the area my ex-boyfriend turn stalker lived and just being here gave me the creeps, but this was where the only 7/11 that carried Alex’s favorite flavor was and it’s against the law of friendship to let a friend endure a tough break up without the comfort of Ben & Jerry’s. I hurried in and out as quickly as I could and just barely made it onto the next bus. Ugh! This place makes me want to take a scorching hot shower! I felt a sick, slimy, kind of feeling run down my back and I swear I could feel someone staring at me but I told myself it was just paranoia, I’d been down here before and nothing had happened, it could also be that I was in my baby blue housekeeping uniform carrying a bag with four pints of ice cream and that wasn’t exactly the normal fair around these parts. I still couldn’t shake that feeling, so I decided to distract myself by looking at the pictures from last night again. By the time I got to work I was so happy that I half expected a musical number and dance routine to start as I walked through the front doors, but alas, there was not. Like I can even dance anyway. As I walked into the break room and started loading up the freezer, I got a few quizzical looks.
“Alex and his boyfriend broke up.” I clarified right before the downstairs restaurant buzzed our intercom asking for someone to mop up a ‘champagne explosion’, as they called it, and bring some clean towels for the people who had gotten soaked. Seeing how most of the girls in the break room were from the night shift, I decided to be nice and volunteer as tribute. And so, I grabbed the mop and some towels and began my journey to the restaurant wondering all the while exactly what the hell they meant by ‘champagne explosion’.
**CC’s POV**
I can’t. Fucking. Breathe! Holy shit! I lifted my head up slightly off the table and looked at the champagne soaked Austin, Jacky, and Ben and lost it again.
“Shut up!” Ben shouted at everyone while Jacky wrung out his bandana and glared viscously at Austin who had instigated this entire incident. He had made some remark to Alan along the lines of “this is why we Americans kicked the British’s ass in the war” which Ben overheard and, being assumedly still drunk from last night, then demanded a rematch. Austin then managed to drag Jacky into it by mocking Ben’s accent to which Jacky made a comeback about how American women love British accents which made Ben declare him his ally in the upcoming Revolutionary War rematch. It was then that Austin, being egged on by Craig and Alan, grabbed the bottles of champagne that had been set on his and the neighboring table, shook them up, popped the corks, sprayed Jacky and Ben down and accidently dropped one of the bottles which created the massive puddle they were currently standing in and sent glass to all corners of the room.
“Ah, so that’s what they meant by champagne explosion.” I looked up and saw Hailey standing with towels under one arm and a mop in her other hand and one of the most unimpressed expressions I’d ever seen on her face. Jacky quickly pointed to Austin and Ben and mouthed that he hadn’t done it. I watched her give them towels and start cleaning up their mess while they went back to their seats. Ash started snickering next to me.
“CC has a crush! CC has a crush!” he started singing childishly making my face warm up. She tuned to look at us and I immediately rammed my elbow into his side to shut him up and waved at her while he grumbled about my ‘bony ass elbows’. She gave me a smile then went back to work. I sighed in relief but Ash just looked at me and said “Dude, this is our last night here, she obviously likes you, and you should go make a move before someone else” he glanced over at Max who also seemed to have his eyes on her “does! This could be your last chance!” The rest of the guys all agreed and suggested I invite her to Asking Alexandria’s party tonight. As if I hadn’t already been planning on doing that.
“I know guys, I will! But she’s busy working right now! I’ll talk to her later, when she’s on a break or something.” I said while she mopped up the last of the champagne. Ash pursed his lips in thought for a second then smirked slyly at me as he purposely knocked his glass over into mine which made it fall off the edge of the table and shatter. Well that probably got her attention.
“Oops.” He said still smirking at me. Ash, you little shit.
