“Ehem…” All eyes were on him now. “Er… its getting late. The Blaze needs to rest for another big show tomorrow. I think it’s time for all of you to get home.”
“It’s that late already. How time flies when you’re having fun” Everyone agreed with Rico.
“Psst… How are we going to get home? Our ride had already left us.” Christine whispered to Rose. Like it or not she had to think of something because she’s the one who assured them they’ll get a ride home. So, she went to get Prince to talk to her alone.
“An… er… Prince. Could I talk with for a minute, alone?”
Excusing himself from his friends, he led her to the far side of the room. “Yes, Rose. What can I do for you?”
“How did you know I need a favor?” She smiled. ‘So like Andy. He knows how to read me’
“Er… Just guessing” He said nervously. ‘Man, I can’t help being Andy when I’m alone with her.’
“Well, you’re right. We really need a favor. You see, the girl that ran away before was our ride home. Her brother brought us here. Since there’s no one that can help us, I was wondering if I can borrow a phone to call my friend, Andy,” She emphasized the name “to pick us up. Do you have any phone with you?”
“Er… Wait a moment. I’ll get one for you.” He rushed to Benz to get him to give her his phone while he went to change.
‘Hehehe… poor Andy. I’ll make it up to you later.’ When she got the phone, she called Andy and asked him if he could pick them up at The Blaze concert. Andy, who is Prince at the moment, promised her to pick them up in an hour. In the dressing room, Prince was hurrying to change when Romeo approached him.
“What’s the meaning of you keeping Rose all to yourselves?”
“She’s the one who chose to be with me, so get over it.”
“You think I didn’t realize what were you trying to do?” Unable to restrain his anger, he pushed Prince against the wall and choked him. “What is she to you?”
“She’s mine. Ever since kindergarten, I had always loved her.” He pushed Romeo and grabbed his collar. “I would never give her up to the likes of you. Don’t you dare lay a hand on her. I’m warning you.” With that he let go of him and rushed to the door.
Half and hour later Andy had already waiting with his nerdy looks, as usual. “Wow, that was fast. Are you speeding?”
“Er… no. I-I was… at the near by store here. Yeah, I was running an errand for mom.” Prince answered nervously.
“Al-right… All the way to the neighboring town, huh. That must be some errand.” Rose wondered skeptically. Andy had run out of any excuses. However, being a soft hearted person Rose felt sorry for him. “Just forget what I said. Let’s go home.” And just like that he was saved.
