Chapter Three: Hunger

➽──────────────❥

Leon stayed behind the curtain as Rose left to go back on stage after touching up her makeup. His heart was racing so fast, and he couldn't stop touching his lips. He could still feel the warmth, making him long for more. His mind is racing as he clenches his phone. He tapped on the screen to see a message from Kevin asking where he went. With a shaky breath, Leon began to type a response on his phone telling him where he was.

Leon:

I am backstage. Rose brought me back here after my episode. She thought that the dark back here would help me calm down.

Kevin:

Backstage? Ohh boy. I'll be right there.

After a few minutes, Leon felt a hand tap his shoulder. He turned around to see Kevin standing behind him with a smirk. "Whoa, boy. I thought you left the bar. You scared the fuck outta me."

"I may have lost my control and Rose came over to me. She took me over here for a bit." Leon scratched the back of his neck.

"Ohh, so she came to you?" Kevin took a drink from his glass.

Leon looked at the small opening of the curtain where Rose was standing on stage. "I kissed her."

Kevin choked a little on his drink and coughed as he held onto Leon's shoulder. "WHAT?!"

"I may have let my emotions get the better of me and I kissed her. She didn't push me away, but she should have. I overstepped boundaries." Leon said as he felt ashamed of himself.

"At least she didn't slap you. She may have one arm, but damn does it hurt." Kevin chuckled.

"She also asked me to leave with her after the show." he smiles to himself. "I didn't know what to say. She left after that to continue the show."

"Holy shit." Kevin continued to cough with his arm over his mouth.

Leon looked down at the floor. "I don't know what to do."

"Just breathe dude." Kevin wiped his mouth with a napkin.

That was easy for him to say. Leon's heart would not stop pounding in his eardrums.

"Here." Kevin hands Leon his car keys. "Take my car."

Leon grabs the keys from him with a frown. "You drank too much didn't you?"

"I may have. I can take a cab home and I'll take one back to your house tomorrow. Although under two conditions." Kevin nodded his head. "So you have to just fill the tank and take that gorgeous woman where she wants."

The music stopped on stage while Kevin teased Leon with a gentle jab to the shoulder. Leon could hear Rose's voice through the speakers as she thanked the bar and then the lights turned on backstage.

"Hey, you two," Rose called out as she walked into the curtain backstage.

"You did amazing as always." Kevin lifted his glass to her.

"Thank you, Kevin." she giggled.

Out walked the man that sang along with Rose tonight. His brown eyes shot Leon a glare before walking past them. Leon looked back at him with a confused expression but the man was already gone down the walkway to the dressing rooms. What the fuck was that about?

His attention snapped back down to Rose as he hand tapped his shoulder. Leon fidgeted with his fingers inside his hoodie pocket. "H-hey."

"Did you still want to hang out?" she asked with a raised eyebrow. "You really didn't give me an answer."

"Of course, I want to." Leon blurted out.

Rose smiled at him. "Good. I'll get my stuff. I'll be there in a few minutes."

Kevin looked back at Leon. "Have fun and stay safe out there. All right?"

"I promise."

Leon sat down on a chair as he waited for Rose to come out of the dressing room. He looked down at his phone while he waited patiently, scrolling through the internet for a bit before closing the screen. He could hear Rose's voice down the hallway and his heart fluttered for a moment. She was talking to the male band member that sang with her, he didn't look so happy talking with her. Then again, neither did Rose from her body language. Leon could see that Rose forced a smile as she waved the man goodbye. Both Leon and the man locked eyes for a split second, something in Leon's gut told him something was up. With a loud slam of the dressing room door, Rose rolled her eyes as she made her way down to Leon.

"Everything all right?" Leon asked.

Leon watched Rose as they walked out of the backstage area. Rose pulled her ponytail out and let her platinum hair flow down her shoulders. She rubbed the top of her head while letting out a sigh. Her curls bounced against her back as they continued to make their way toward the front door of the bar.

"Just a stupid argument. Nothing to be worried about." she shrugged her shoulders.

Leon looked at her with a brooding expression. "That didn't look like nothing,"

"I'm not gonna let an argument ruin my night." She shook her head at him.

He wanted to ask more but he knew he would be bothering her. Internally he knew that argument was bothering her, but he didn't want to upset her more. He just needed to leave it alone.

"Kevin gave me his keys. So where did you want to go?" Leon pulled Kevin's car keys from his pocket.

"How nice of him." she walked ahead of him with a smile. "How about dinner? I'm starving."

She looked so happy, and Leon's heart raced as she walked toward Kevin's white car. Leon unlocked the car before they stepped inside. Rose adjusted the passenger seat while Leon adjusted the driver's seat. Once the car had started Rose turned on the radio but kept it at a low volume as they talked for a while. Leon just enjoyed the sound of her voice. Deep down he regretted not responding to her first move on him at the house. He must have looked like a fool. Here a beautiful woman gave him her number and he was too chicken to make the first move.

Kevin was right. I should have worked up the courage to text her.

However, Leon was here with Rose now and that was all that mattered. Leon drove them to a nearby diner to eat. He parked the car before stepping out to help Rose with her door. She thanked him while he gave her a hand to step out of the car. He gave her his arm and she gladly wrapped her arm with his, blushing as they walked in the door.

"You know, I'm surprised you came tonight," she said as they waited to be seated.

"Why?" Leon raised an eyebrow.

"I thought I scared you off on how forward I was the other night," she laughed at herself.

Leon's face grew hot with a blush. "Well, I was a little surprised. I'm not used to it."

"I am sorry for how forward I was."

"No, no. You are all right. Don't worry about it."

Their name was called over by the hostess and they both got up from their seats. Leon and Rose sat down at a booth that the hostess pointed out.

"I've never been to this diner before." Rose smiled to herself.

"I've been here a couple of times. The food is pretty decent." Leon chuckled.

"Hello, my name is Cindy, and I will be your server today." a female voice made Leon jump a little in his seat. She was a tall slender blond woman with blue eyes. She smiled brightly at Leon before she turned her attention to Rose.

"Cindy?" Rose's voice was shaky.

He glanced over to see Rose's face; she looked like she'd seen a ghost. She slowly stood up from her seat and grabbed Cindy's hand. Cindy looked back at her and then her expression turned into surprise.

"Rose...?" she whispered.

"I haven't seen you since that day. I'm so glad to see you." Rose hugged her.

"I'm so happy to see you." Cindy tried to hold back her tears and she smiled at her. "Can we talk in private quick?"

"Of course. Excuse me, Leon."

Cindy took their drinks before leaving toward the back room. Rose stood up and followed her to where the bathrooms were. Leon could see from afar that Cindy grabbed the empty jacket sleeve from Rose. She gave her a weary smile as Cindy broke down in tears as they spoke. Rose shook her head before wrapping her arm around Cindy. They seemed to talk for a few minutes before Rose broke the hug. They both smiled at one another before they separated ways.

Rose walked down toward them both and Leon smiled at her as she sat down. She kept her eyes on her hand as it fidgeted with her napkin. Leon gently placed his hand over hers and she looked up at him.

"Oh, I'm sorry." she smiled at him. "How rude of me."

"No, it's okay." Leon cleared his throat. "You guys know each other?"

Rose looked back down at her hand. "It's a long story."

Leon gently squeezed her hand, "You don't need to tell me if you are not comfortable."

"Thank you, Leon."

{ ♡ }

Rose walked ahead of Leon while she dug in her purse with her right hand. He watched her fish out her apartment keys and gave him a quick smile. She unlocked the door to the house and his heartbeat pounded against his chest. He finally has Rose here alone with him, no one here to interrupt them. He could hear the clicking of Rose's shoes against the hard floor. She set her purse on a hook on the wall before slipping off her leather jacket. Leon stared at the loose fabric of her empty left sleeve.

She walked past Leon, and he noticed her wince as she went by. He stood up from the couch. "Are you alright?"

"Oh? I'm just a little sore from standing too much today. I'll be all right though." she turned around and rubbed where her amputation started with the prosthetic. "I'm used to the soreness and pain sometimes."

Leon rubbed the back of his neck as he smiled at her. "Do you need to take it off to rest your leg?"

"Well, I could but..." her voice trailed off. "Can you help me? If you don't mind."

"Yeah, I can give you a hand with your boots." Leon picked Rose up as she gasped in surprise and carried her to her bedroom. Rose's face flustered as he gently threw her down on the bed. She looked away bashfully.

"Do you need me to help you with your leg?" he chuckled.

Rose looked at him hesitantly for a moment before smiling at him.

"I'll hand you parts and you can set them on that bench near the bedside okay?" She looked away bashfully.

Rose sat up as Leon knelt in front of her, gently taking her right prosthetic leg in his hands. He grabbed the zipper of her boot and brought it down slowly. She thanked him for helping her with her boots. Her sweet smile makes Leon's heart flutter. Rose sat up on the bed and scooted herself to the foot of the bed. She pulled the large nylon sock down her prosthetic. She reached over to the ankle part of the prosthetic and there was a slight click. Rose took the main part of the hard prosthetic and handed it to Leon. He gently took it in his hands to place it on the bench in front of the foot of the bed. She rolled down the fake skin of the prosthetic and gently set it down on the bed before Leon placed it next to the other pieces.

Leon watched her in awe as she slipped off the last of the last piece and he could finally see her amputation. She placed her hand over the large scar, "Don't stare so much..."

"I'm sorry..." he apologized.

"It's okay. I'm just not used to taking off my prosthetic in front of people." she smiled.

However, Leon noticed that the smile wasn't a happy one. She hid behind that smile because she was ashamed.

"I think you are gorgeous." he gently took her hand in his.

"T-thank you."

The more Leon stayed in front of her his heartbeat pounded in his ears. He stood up in front of her and gently pushed her back down on the bed. Rose's face was blushing as he hovered over her. His hands moved up her plump thighs hungrily, making her gasp softly in response. His eyes looked up at hers with hunger, he wanted every in of her.

"Can I kiss you again?" he whispered his question.

"You may." Rose giggled.

Leon felt like a teenager, not knowing what to do with his hands as he kissed her lips eagerly. Her hand gently cupped his cheek as she kissed him back. His heart pounded against his chest while her fingers moved to the back of his neck. Rose's lips were so soft against his, he knew he must have wrecked her lipstick by now. Leon pulled away to breathe and her lipstick was smudged on the corner of her mouth, but she giggled in return.

"Red looks good on you, sugar." Rose teased.

He looked away, "Can I do more? I want to touch you."

"Of course, you can. Don't be so formal." Rose wiped his lips with her thumb. "I'm not going anywhere."

His hands continued to move up her soft skin until his fingers hooked on the edge of her panties. With a swift hand, he slipped her panties down and his breathing was shaky. His hand slowly slipped into her panties and his fingers found her clitoris. Her back arched against the couch with a gasp. His fingers rubbed her nub with a circular motion as he trailed kisses upon her neck. The more his fingers worked her clitoris the more Rose moaned his name repeatedly.

Why can't he stop himself?

His body had a mind of its own and he felt like he was losing his mind around her. All he wanted was her moans. Nothing else would satisfy his hunger but her very taste.

Leon wanted it.

Now.

Leon quickly grabbed her waist to adjust her body so he could taste her folds. Rose moaned softly as his tongue met her clitoris and Leon couldn't control himself anymore. All he could hear was his excited heartbeat and her heavy breathing. His tongue circled her sensitive clitoral hood before slowly his hands caressed her thighs.

More.

"Oh god..." her fingers clenched onto Leon's hair.

Please.

"Leon!" she whimpered.

Say my name more.

Leon moved his tongue along her warmth as she wiggled underneath his grasp. Her breathing was starting to hitch as he constantly changed the pace of his movements. His tongue teased her folds hungrily as she moaned louder. Slowly he moved his lips back to suck on her clitoris as he slipped his fingers into her warmth. Slowly pumping his fingers in and out of her core, making her coo in pleasure. His heart raced in excitement as her hand gripped harder on his hair. Igniting his hunger for her more. Rose bucked her hips in pleasure as he slid a second finger inside her core. He sucked and teased her clitoris hungrily as she moaned.

Her taste alone was driving him wild. He pulled away from her warmth with an out-of-breath groan. "Rose.."

"Please..." she breathed. "Touch me more..."

Gladly.

Leon's face grew hot as his other hand slipped her shirt up to show her bra. Leon slid his hand underneath the front clip of her bra and with a swift clip, her breasts fell out of its hold. To his surprise, her brown nipples were pierced and he felt himself grow harder just looking at them. He leaned over to take a nipple between his teeth as his fingers pumped into her core. Her hand cupped her mouth as her moaning turned into a whimper of pleasure. Leon's heart was beating so fast just from the softness of her breasts. He swirled his tongue around her hard nipple as he curled his fingers inside of her finding her sensitive spot. Rose arched her back as his fingers moved faster and faster as he sucked on her nipple.

Feeling the coldness of the nipple piercing on his tongue he hooked his fingers inside of her.

"Leon..." Rose purred. "Fuck me..."

"I...I don't have a condom." Leon whispered.

Rose giggled as bit her bottom lip. "It's okay."

Leon quickly slipped off his hoodie alone with his shirt as she pleaded. He pulled off his belt with one hand before throwing it on the floor. He quickly kicked off his pants and boxers as she watched him. Her right hand traced his muscles while he hovered over her plump body. Her eyes locked on with him in hunger, making his desire for her enhance.

"Are you sure?" he gripped onto her hips.

"Shut up and fuck me." She said as she stuck out her tongue playfully.

He positioned himself at her entrance and rubbed the head against her clitoris as she whined. Slowly Leon slid his cock inside her pussy, his mouth open as he clenched his eyes. Her walls clamped tight against his girth as he got to the hilt. Rose's hand covered her mouth as a loud groan slipped out her lips.

"Holy fuck, you're squeezing my dick." Leon breathed.

His hands gripped her plush thighs as he slowly pumped his thick length inside of her. She trembled against his body as Leon moaned in pleasure. He watched her expression as her core flexed around him with every thrust. His fingers groped deeply as Rose moaned vulgarly. His breathing was harsh, and his hands traveled up to her breasts as he picked up his pace. Harder and harder his length hit inside her hot core. His groaning molded with hers and the hairs on the back of his neck stood up. He had never felt this way about someone before and he felt like he was losing himself to her.

"Oh Leon..!" she breathed.

Say it more.

As Leon was lost in his perverted thoughts Rose pulled him into her lips. She moans softly against his. He kisses back slowly and passionately as his hips slow down to feel every inch of her. It felt like electricity as they kissed so passionately, and Leon groaned in ecstasy against her delicious lips.

"Rose..." His breathing hitched.

Rose gently grabbed onto his shoulder and moved to flip him over on his back. She straddled his lap as her hand explored his chest. Slowly she inched his cock back inside of her, making Leon roll his eyes back with a shaky moan. Her hips rocked against his, dragging his cock against her velvety walls. His hands moved up to hold onto the meat of her wide hips as he groaned. She leaned over to kiss his neck while her hips rocked faster. The bed creaked underneath them and Leon's head was clouded.

"Just like that.." he whispered as his hands grabbed onto her ass. "So good.."

"I'm close.." she moaned.

His hands pushed her hips down more to guide her on his aching cock. Her velvety walls tightened against his length as Leon pounded up inside of her. He held her hips in pleasure while he closed his eyes. Her nails scratched against his bare chest as he reached her sensitive spot that made her wild. He desperately tried to match her pace as his balls swelled and his cock throbbed.

"Leon! Please!" Rose whimpered.

Her back arched in ecstasy as he reached her climax. Her walls contracted and brought him to his limit. He groaned out her name as they finished in pure ecstasy. His cock pumped her full of cum as his hands clawed at the meat of her ass. He groaned at every pulse of his cock as her pussy milked his balls. Rose's pussy twitched against his sensitive cock but he didn't want to pull out just yet.

"Fuck, I came inside." He panted.

"You are... amazing..." she giggled through her panting and laid down next to him.

"I try..." Leon chuckled out of breath.

Rose's hand rubbed the back of Leon's head as he nuzzled into her chest. Just for a moment, he felt his mind at ease. Just being with this woman made him feel secure.

What's happening to me?

Leon slowly got off her with a sheepish smile. "I am sorry if I was too pushy. I'm not usually like this."

"Don't be sorry. I wanted as much as you did." She turned on her side to look at him. "But you gotta promise me something?"

"Anything." Leon propped his head on his hand.

"Maybe we can get breakfast in the morning."

Leon blushed with a smile, "I promise."

"Do you mind helping me to the bathroom? I need to get cleaned up," she said bashfully.

Leon nodded his head as she pushed herself to the edge of the bed and had her wrap her right arm around his body as they moved to the bathroom. She handed him a pack of wipes to get himself cleaned off and she closed the door behind her as the bath water ran. Leon cleaned himself off and slipped his boxers on before walking over to her kitchen sink. He ran the water as he splashed water on his face. It soothed his skin as he let out a sigh.

A light knock on the front door made Leon's heart jump. He quickly wiped his face before returning to the bedroom to slip his pants and shirt back on. With a deep breath, he answered the front door to be greeted by the man that sang with Rose at the bar. The man's expression turned in an instant seeing Leon.

"Where is Rose?" he demanded calmly.

"She is busy in the bath at the moment. You can wait in the living room if you want." Leon motioned for him to enter but the man glared at him.

"I see."

"I forgot to introduce myself back at the bar. My name is Leon." Leon extended his hand for a handshake.

The man looked at Leon but did not shake his hand, "John King."

The tension was so thick it could be cut in half with a butter knife.

"Can you give this to Rose? She left this backstage, and she needs to be more careful with it." John handed Leon a small notebook that looked weathered.

"I'll give it to her."

Leon took the book in his hand and there was a slight tug from John's grasp. John looked back at Leon with a glare letting go. He didn't say another word to Leon before turning on his heel to walk down the hallway. Leon watched John disappear around the corner with a confused expression.

He shut the front door with a glare, He glared at me again. What the fuck is his problem?

"Is someone at the door?" Rose called out from the bathroom. "I thought I heard a knock on the door."

He walked over toward the bedroom, and she was sitting down on a stool in the bathroom drying her hair.

"John came to bring you something you left at the bar," Leon replied.

"What?" she looked up at Leon while she was drying her hair.

"It's a small journal. I'll set it down on your dresser."

There was a slight pause in her voice. "T-thank you..."

She pulled out a hair dryer as he made his way to the dressed. The journal slipped from his fingers, and he cursed under his breath. Some little papers slipped from the journal, and he knelt to gather up the papers. He grabbed a card and turned it around to see it was an ID badge. For a moment his stomach turned into a knot. Leon held an R.P.D. officer badge in his palm with the name Rose Marie Ramos.

His heart began to pound against his chest and his mouth felt dry. Flashbacks hit him as fire surrounded the streets when the police car crashed with him and Clare. He could smell the rotting flesh of the zombies as the moaning of the throats filled his ears. Leon clenched his head as he backed up into the dresser causing a loud rattle on the ground. He could feel the heat from the fire against his skin as he slumped down to his knees. His body trembled violently as he began to hyperventilate.

"Leon!" A female voice called out to him from the other side of the fire.

Why am I back in this hell?

His hands continued to clench against his dirty blond hair as his breathing began to become harsh. A hand grabbed onto his shoulder and his immediate response was to push away. There was a loud thud on the ground that made him look up from his hold. Rose was on the floor next to him and she was trying to pull herself back up. Leon's heart felt like it had stopped, he pushed her away.

"I... I am so sorry." Leon breathed. "I'm not well right now. I should go..."

"Leon. You're having a panic attack." her voice sounded so far away.

Leon tried to get up, but his legs felt like jelly. Rose looked at him concerned as she picked herself up to scoot over to him. Her hand reached for his face gently as Leon's body trembled more as he tried to regain his composure.

I'm such an idiot...

"Leon, look at me..." she insisted. "Look please."

His eyes looked up at her as his body trembled.

"Concentrate on your breathing. Take in a breath, count to 10, and release for me," she spoke softly as her hand covered one of his ears.

Leon felt a lump in his throat as she started counting for him. He didn't even realize he was squeezing her biceps. Leon closed his eyes to focus on his heartbeat. His hand's grip loosen as she reached the end of the counting. His heartbeat slowed down along with his breathing as her hand stayed on his ear.

Rose pressed her forehead against his. "You're doing great."

"I..." Leon quickly grabbed onto her to pull her into a tight embrace. "I'm sorry. I'm such a fucking mess."

"I'm here to help," Rose spoke softly as he buried his face into the nape of her neck.

Please don't tell me that. Please I can't handle it.

Rose wrapped her arm around Leon in return as his body trembled up against hers. She moved her hand up to his head and caressed it as they held onto one another. Leon did not know what to do or say to her.

No one can help me.

No one.

Chapter Two: Night Terrors

➽──────────────❥

A decent night's sleep was not something Leon was used to. He would get a few hours of sleep or sometimes not any. Leon's eyes open to the darkness of this bedroom. Funny how darkness is what dwells in his mind and how uninviting it feels. There was no escape from this hell. This was something Leon never asked for and still, he does not know how to cope with such a problem. The more he pushed aside the subject the more he felt his mind being worn down. He let out a sigh before stepping out of bed and heading to the kitchen without bothering to turn on a light. The house had such an unsettling sense to it that made him block it from his mind. He grabbed a glass from the counter to fill it up with water before returning to the bedroom. Before he lays back down on the bed, he finishes his water and places the glass on the dresser. The water refreshes his dry mouth and his nerves. With a yawn, he slips back into the covers.

Leon's arm reached over to grab onto the pillow beside him, but he felt something else. He sat up on his elbow as his eyes adjusted in the darkness. All he could make out was the figure of a woman laying down beside him with her back turned. His heart pounded against his chest, questions running through his mind. Who was in bed with him? And how did they get into the house? He flipped on the switch to turn on the lamp on the bedside dresser and saw Rose peacefully asleep. Her platinum blonde hair draped her back as her body slowly moved as she breathed. Leon looked over the side of the bed to see their clothes spewed about the room. His hand rubbed against his face as the unanswered questions flooded his mind once again. How did Rose end up in his bed? All Leon could remember was going to the bar with Kevin and Ashley. They watched Rose perform before he stepped outside for a breather, and he ended up driving Rose and Kevin back to his place. She gave Leon her number but anything after that Leon could not remember.

Not that he would complain about a beautiful woman being in his bed, but he would still like to know what happened. He sighed to himself before retiring back to bed. His arm slowly wrapped around Rose's sleeping body, trying his hardest not to wake her up. He moved his body closer toward her as he rested his head back onto his pillow. The strawberry scent of her shampoo made him smile. As his body began to relax, that's when he began to listen to her breathing. Rose's breathing did not sound natural, it sounded harsh. That's when his heart began to pound against his chest as her body trembled against his.

'Rose...?' his voice was shaken but he still turned her body toward him. His heart felt like it was in his throat as he was greeted by a rotting smell. Rose's mouth was rotting of blood and flesh as a snarl escaped her throat. Her right hand grabbed onto my face while what was left of her other arm sprouted an ungodly sight of a large claw before her face collided with my throat.

Leon's scream echoed throughout the house as he sat up in bed. His hand immediately grabbed onto his throat, feeling that it was still in one piece. The sweat rolled down his body as he stayed here breathing heavily. His hands trembled against the blanket as he tried to regain his composure. Why the hell does this keep happening? The fear he felt soon turned into complete anger before he threw the covers off. All he wanted was a decent night's sleep for once, but every night was a nightmare. Leon stormed off to the bathroom to take a decent shower to make him cool down. He slammed the door open with a grunt before pushing the shower curtain aside to start the shower. The water rolled off his skin, but it still felt as if his body was on fire from his rage.

Why did he have a nightmare like that? And why did it have to involve her?! His hand clenched into a fist, and he slammed it against the title on the wall. The vibration of the impact rang against his hand down to his wrist. A loud roaring groan slipped through his clenched teeth.

Again.

His arm revealed back, and his fist collided with the wall once more. Leon growled under his breath before his head rested against the wall. Water rolled off the top of his head and down his back as he stood there. Slowly all noise around him began to fade away. All Leon could hear was the sound of his own heartbeat and the blood pumping in his veins. The pain from his knuckles began to become more prominent. Leon wiped what little blood he had on his hand with the water with a long sigh.

He hated this.

Once he turned his hand around, he saw the writing on the palm of his hand. The ink from the numbers slowly erased from his hand and he felt a pit in his stomach. Before he went to bed last night, he managed to write her phone number down on his phone but could not muster the courage to text her. His mind was whirling around with thoughts but he clenched his jaw to suppress them. Thoughts needed to be silenced or he would go mad. After sitting in the shower and finally bathing, he stepped out with a groan.

Such a coward.

I've faced many hurdles and monsters, but I cannot text her back. I'm pathetic. Leon thought to himself while wrapping a towel around his waist.

With an empty mind and fresh body, Leon began to get ready for the day. He made his way back to his closet to pull out a black shirt and jeans. Throwing the clothes on the bed, he grabbed boxers and socks from the dresser with a frown. There was a loud bang on the front door that made Leon's body stiffen up.

His mind began to wonder. The knock continued as he made his way down the hallway.

Leon opened the door and Kevin gave him a smile. "Took you long enough."

"I was in the shower."

Kevin walked into the door with a chuckle and Leon shut the door behind him with a frown. "Why are you here?"

"To get your ass out of the house."

"I'm not really in the mood tonight. I had a rough night's sleep. I just want to stay home tonight." Leon scratched his head with a sigh.

"You and Rose hit it off last night, huh? I knew she would like your grumpy ass." Kevin snickered. "I saw her write her number down on your hand. Very smooth Leon."

Leon's face flushed. "Maybe she did."

"Ohhh, did you stay up all night texting her? Is that why you didn't get any sleep last night?" Kevin nudged his shoulder against Leon's.

"I didn't."

"Come on don't be shy. You can tell me." Kevin wagged his eyebrow.

"No. I'm serious. I didn't contact her last night. I did put her number in my phone, but I haven't messaged her yet."

"Wait, so let me get this straight? She gave you her number, you have it logged into your cell phone and you haven't contacted her?" Kevin asked as he stared at Leon's contacts.

"You can say that." Leon sighed.

"What? Are you chicken or something?" Kevin raised an eyebrow. "Because you guys looked like you hit it off that night. It would be a shame if you let someone like her go."

"Why don't you try to 'get her' then?" Leon rolled his eyes.

Kevin froze for a moment and just let out a chuckle. "You think I haven't tried? I ain't her type. Plus, she thinks I'm a tad overbearing..."

"I wonder why..." Leon scoffed.

"She doesn't normally give her number away either. That's the crazy part."

"Well, she seems to flirt with everyone like what she did with you before the concert." Leon snapped back. "Typical."

Once the words slipped out of Leon's mouth, he instantly regretted them. Kevin's expression changed from a smile to a quick disgusted glare. Never had Leon seen a smile leave Kevin's face like that. Not even once. It was terrifying to see emotion drain from another human's face like that. Leon couldn't look Kevin in the eye; he had to turn away from him.

"Excuse me?" Kevin stared at Leon dumbfounded. "Because she winked and blew a kiss at me before the concert? Leon, she's playful in nature. You are going to hold that against her?"

"I don't know her personally, Kevin." Leon sighed. "How am I supposed to know?"

Kevin crossed his arms with a glare. "From how she grabbed onto your leg she must be really into you."

"How many other people did she do that before me?" The words would not stop. He didn't mean what he was saying, Stop you worthless piece of shit.

"You are a fucking moron." Kevin snapped.

Kevin, I didn't mean it, please.

"You know what Leon? Get your ass in my car. We are going back to the bar. Rose is performing again and she asked me to bring you along again. She wanted you to hear her sing again because of last night."

"Wait, Kevin..." Leon protested but Kevin glared at him.

"Shut up. Get a coat and get in the fucking car," Kevin spin around on the heel of his boot before storming out the door.

Leon clenched his jaw in frustration. Today did not feel right. Everything that came out of his mouth he knew he didn't mean but it came out. He stormed into his closet to grab a black hoodie before gathering up his keys and wallet.

This doesn't feel right. Not at all.

After a long silent drive to the bar, Leon looked down at his phone with a glare. Kevin parked his car closest to the entrance of the bar and got out without a word. Leon followed behind him with his hands in the pocket of his hoodie pocket. The bar seemed to be packed once again but Leon couldn't shake an uneasy feeling. Kevin ordered a few drinks while Leon sat there in silence. He handed him a beer before making his way into the crowd, completely ignoring Leon. However, Leon couldn't look Kevin in the face either. He was ashamed of how he reacted toward him. How he talked badly of Rose when his emotions got the better of him. How could he apologize for being such an asshole?

A man walked out on the stage along with Rose. The man was tall with long black hair and sleeve tattoos on his built arms. He looked to be in his mid-twenties. Leon fidgeted with the glass of the bottle as he watched them. Rose had her platinum hair pulled back in a ponytail with her bangs framing her face. She wore her makeup in an alternative smokey eye and a bold red lip. It made her green eyes pop. She looked so happy with a huge smile on her face. Leon smiled to himself for a moment before realizing how stupid he must look.

Rose was standing close to the other man while they talked to Kevin. His expression was brooding as his arms crossed his chest. Leon clenched the beer glass for a second.

Deep down in Leon's gut filled with jealousy and he didn't know why. It was an intense amount of emotion. His fingers clenched onto his beer bottle. He took a drink with a grunt of disgust. Always hated the taste of alcohol but he needed a drink. His eyes wandered down toward the ground and he could feel the alcohol slowly slip down to his stomach. Unpleasant burning feeling but he took another drink reluctantly. A loud laugh came from the stage and his head shot back up to see Rose kneeling to talk to Kevin. Her smile was so bright. Kevin's hand motioned toward his direction and her eyes scanned the room until their eyes met like that night before. She gave Leon a giddy smile and mouthed the words 'hello handsome'. Leon's face grew hot as he gave her an awkward smile back.

Rose stepped in front of the microphone with a smile, "Hello everyone. We are going to be singing for you all tonight. Hope you all enjoy it!"

The Lights began to dim.

"I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh. I want to hold you high and steal your pain away..." the man's voice was strong and deep as the mic caught his lips. His eyes locked on Rose's as he adjusted the mic on the stand. "I keep your photograph, and I know it serves me well. want to hold you high and steal your pain."

Leon watched the man's body language as he sang. The way he moved and his voice was so fluid. Rose kept her eyes closed as his voice echoed through the speakers. He moved around Rose as she swayed her body back and forth with their rhythm. Both voices began to blend, "'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome and I don't feel right when you've gone away."

They both faced one another as they sang to each other. Leon's teeth clenched together as the man's hand pulled away from Rose. He turned to the crowd, "You've gone away..."

"I don't feel you here anymore..."

The music was soft but still prominent. Leon lifted himself from the bar stool to adjust his shirt and that's when her voice finally hummed through the speakers. His stomach filled with butterflies as he looked up at her. "The worst is over now, and we can breathe again."

Please.

I need this.

"I want to hold you high and steal my pain away."

He moved closer to the crowd of people and his heart began to race. All the different smells of cologne and perfume filled his senses. Quickly the smells mixed almost making Leon sick. He rubbed the back of his neck as he pushed himself further into the crowd of people. The bright lights hit his sight and his entire body froze. He felt his body being lifted to another world; he could see all the bodies on the floor from Europe. The hordes of attackers came ahead on and there was no escape. He looked at the faces of all the villagers, all distorted and disgusted. I don't want this. He tried to step back but his legs did not budge.

Villagers screamed in Spanish at the top of their lungs as they chased after Leon. A loud pop came from his left and another on his right. Leon's heartbeat grew louder and faster. Bloodstained himself and the wall around him. The walls around him suddenly became a small room. No, not now. Please. Leon breathed against his teeth. Leon slammed his fists on the walls as they began to close in all around him. Suffocating him and entrapping his very soul.

"I want to hold you high and steal my pain away."

The voice was soft and angelic.

Leon spun around to see the wall an inch away from his face. His hands press as hard as he can against what felt like gravel. His nails cracked against the grit. More and more Leon fought against the gravel, but it felt like he was alone. Trapped inside with nothing. The voice soothed against his ears again. "There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight."

LET ME OUT.

"I want to hold you high and steal your pain."

A strong hand grabbed onto Leon's shoulders and his entire body grew hot with panic. The more he struggled against the stranger's grasp the more his body became weak.

Save me.

A light touch brushed against Leon's cheek. His eyes shot open to see himself in front of the stage and Rose kneeling. Her soft hand against his face. The expression on her face was like an angel. Kevin's hands gripped his shoulders securely, keeping him grounded. He caught his breath as her hand pulled away from his skin. Only making him yearn for her touch once more.

"Hey, man are you okay?" Kevin whispered. "I was on the other side of the stage and I could see you in distress. I came right over."

"I..." Leon's breath was harsh. "I need to see her..."

Leon's body trembled after the shock. "I..."

Kevin's hand rubbed Leon's shoulders for a second before patting him on the back. "Let's get you some water."

"I want to stay here," Leon whispered. However, Leon's legs felt like jelly. He did not think he could move from where he was. "I didn't stay the last time."

"Leon, she will understand. Don't force yourself." Kevin insisted.

"I just..."

A warm liquid slid down Leon's cheek. Kevin's arm wrapped around Leon's shoulder and began to pull him out of the crowd. Leon tried to protest but the words would not come out. The tears only flowed harder and faster until he was a complete mess in Kevin's arms. He could feel people's eyes boring into the back of him but the tears would not stop. Kevin guided him into the corner of the bar where they could have some privacy. Leon sat down at a seat and buried his hands into his face as he sobbed.

Pathetic.

"I will be right back, all right? I will get you a glass of water." Kevin pat Leon's shoulder before taking off.

It felt like an eternity. Embarrassment was all he felt but he couldn't bring himself to stop. His fingers gripped his bangs in frustration. The music hummed in the background, but he could not hear the singing. Suddenly he felt an arm wrap around Leon's shoulders. He jumped a bit in his seat, but the arm kept him at bay. A soft cheek rested against his head while a hand rubbed his chest soothingly.

"Rose?"

She whispered into his ear. "Follow me backstage. I think you'll feel better back there away from people."

"I..."

Before he could say another word her hand grabs onto his and escorts him toward the stage. They take a right before the door and make their way backstage where the lighting was dimmer. Leon's heart pounded harder into his eardrums. Rose turned back toward Leon with a smile. "Are you all right? I saw you from the stage and I was worried."

Leon stayed silent as he shook his head for a no. Rose's arm went to pull away from him and his heart skipped. His hands quickly pulled her arm back around his neck like before. She made a small gasp. "Leon?"

"I'm sorry..." his hand clenched onto the fabric of her coat. "Please just wait a little longer..."

Her hand caressed his cheek and Leon's heart fluttered at the softness of her touch. He let out a soft moan against his lips, Please don't leave me. Not yet.

She cooed in his ear. "I'm here for you. You don't have to tell me anything, okay?"

That's when Leon lost it completely. His body trembled as his crying turned into an aggressive sob. Her arms tightened around his neck as he cried. His legs felt weak, and Rose held onto him as long as possible. The longer it took, the more grateful Leon had become for her presence. Leon's hands quickly grabbed onto the sides of Rose's face and pulled her into his lips. His hands grabbed onto the back of her head and her waist. Pulling her body closer toward his. His lips moved with his and his heart raced like crazy. Rose muffled against his lips for a moment before she returned the kiss. Her right arm tightened around his neck as the kiss intensified. Their tongue swirled with one another, and Leon let out a groan against her soft lips. His heart raced in excitement for a moment.

He felt as if he couldn't control himself.

"Rose!" A male voice boomed across the room. "When are you done can we get on with the show?!"

Leon and Rose's lips pulled away from one another. "Yup. Be right there."

She rolled her eyes before turning her head toward the man's direction with a smile. The man walked off down the hallway and Rose giggled under her breath. She wiped her thumb against my lips to wipe away the red lipstick that transferred from her lips.

"I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me." Leon was out of breath but managed to give her a sheepish smile. Rose's hand gently took Leon's in hers. He looked up at her with a confused expression, but she only gave him a sincere smile. She gave his hand a gentle kiss before she let go.

"W-wait..." Leon whispered.

"Hmm?" Her eyes locked with his.

"I may sound forward but I need you tonight." Rose's face grew hot with a blush as her mouth opened. Leon quickly evaluated what he said in his head and took a deep breath. "W-wait, I mean can you stay a little longer? I would appreciate the company."

"Leon..."

"I..." Leon could not find the words and he got embarrassed.

"How about you stay backstage?" Her right hand adjusted the hood of his jacket with a giggle. "And after the show, we could get out of here."

Leon's heart skipped a beat.
