‘I will ask her out. I will ask her out.’ Dylan Willis reassured his reflection
in the sports shop window.
Ignoring Beanie, his singing partner, he checked out his stance. His
battered guitar was slung low, his legs akimbo, and his brown, leather
cowboy boots were suitably scuffed and worn. He intended to look every
inch the rock god he was destined to become. Admittedly, it made it bloody
hard to play, but, hey — serious cool came at a price.
Dylan had hoped stardom would call a little sooner, seeing as he was
pushing twenty-four, but he was still pretty confident, despite evidence to
the contrary. He was just waiting for the right moment to shine.
But today, he was on a different mission. Today, when his little world
was bright and full of hope, he was going to shine solely for the beautiful
woman who caused a spike of pure lust and unlikely possessiveness to
snake through his veins. He was smitten from the moment he saw her, hand
over her mouth trying to hold back a laugh, eyes sparkling with merriment
as her friend recounted a funny story.
She almost strolled straight past him
but stopped at the last minute when he twanged his guitar loudly. He then
tried out a complicated riff to draw her attention, ending on a long, drawnout chord. She’d turned her huge green eyes on him with interest, took her
hand away from her mouth and smiled broadly. She stayed to hear his song
from start to finish, a soft smile on her face.
Eventually, she dug into her bag and shyly threw a five-pound note
onto his cap, which he’d laid on the pavement. It fluttered in the wind and
threatened to take off, and she giggled, chased it with her hands and
eventually caught it. Pointedly, she bent down and tucked it underneath a
few random coins that he’d put there earlier — just in case people didn’t
know that he was singing for his supper.
He inhaled just as she rose from
depositing the note and he caught the smell of floral perfume on the breeze.
Transfixed, he stared as she continued on her way after giving him a little
smile and a shy wave. He couldn’t take his eyes off her silky, sunshinecoloured hair blowing in the breeze as she disappeared from view. An
irrational urge to chase after her almost won, but Beanie was in dire need of
money and he couldn’t abandon his post. And so they played on.
That was two weeks ago and he’d prayed every day, with all his might,
that she’d walk by again. When she did, he was going to ask her out, and
she would say yes, and they would fall in love. It was that simple.
