-Steve's the famous one, Chris is just his back-up singing best friend Part 2
Date: 2009-09-25 11:30 am (UTC)He could have had his time in the sun. They came for his songs. They tempted him. They wanted his voice, his looks, but always he’d turned away happy in his world--Steve.
The past six months, the record company had been using Steve’s popularity to boost their newest Miley Cyrus clone. She appeared everywhere with the famous singer. Gossip rags whispered.
Tonight’s award show was the perfect example. The record people didn’t want the band to attend so all the attention would be on Steve and his teen queen. But they had to perform their ‘Song of the Year’. The band was ushered in the back door while Steve and his ‘date’ went down the red carpet.
Individually, and as a group, they’d carried home a wheelbarrow full of awards. Chris’ three taunted him from the counter.
This wasn’t the first time since ‘SHE’ was pushed into their lives that Steve hadn’t come home. Chris trusted Steve. He would stay at ‘his’ house after being dropped by the limo. Chris didn’t want Steve to risk falling asleep at the wheel just to sooth his insecurities, but tonight everything seemed more poignant.
He was starting to feel like the ‘other woman’ in his own relationship.
This should have been their night to celebrate their banner year, but instead he was waiting by the window like the heroine in a gothic novel.
With a self-derisive snort he tried to shake off his maudlin mood. He lifted the forgotten glass of Jack Daniels to his lips and relished the burn of the amber liquid in his throat.
He poured another two fingers as he heard the key in the front door. Blue eyes clashed in the pale morning light.
“What are you doing here?” Chris turned back to watch morning break across the sky.
Steve crossed the room to stand behind him. “Why are you still up? I thought you’d be in bed.”
A careless shrug was his only answer.
“Chris, what’s wrong?” Steve wanted to wrap himself around the dark haired man and never let go, but this strange mood made him wary.
“This should have been our night.” He spoke quietly before throwing back the contents of his glass.
“I know. I’m sorry, but I had…” Steve started, but was cut off.
“This is the first time I’ve felt I wasn’t a part of this…of you.”
Alarmed Steve did wrap himself around Chris and buried his face in his neck.
“I was going to tell you this later, but the reason I’m so late—I was arguing with the suits. I told them about us.”
“Are you outta your fuckin’ mind?”
“Yeah. For you.”
