Cuddle Valley High: Role Play

She set up the back, it was a dark red satin sheet she hung up to make the place look more suddle. She put the mic up front, along with the stool, and a stand for water. She was playing solo, like always. Still kind of looking for a place in a band. Her flyer was hung on the 'Flyer Wall' that was set up by the entrance. She turned on the dimmed lights that were on either side of the stage, and turned on the dark yellow stage lights from above and below. She ran her fingers in her hair, and took her guitar and headed for the backroom to change. It was almost 5:00pm.

Allor nods. "cool. Well, let's go." she said. She had to many piercings for Marria's liking. The blonde beauty queen always lectured her. "One hole in each ear is enough for any girl." she had argued. Allor had merely shrugged then got her lip and tongue pierced just to spite her.

The boss of the cafe was a chunk man. He opened the door, and let some of the regulars enter. He stood at the stage turned the mic on and started to talk.
"Today we have our usual singers. Enjoy yourselves, coffe is half off today, and we just got a new cheescake. Fiona will be up to the stage in five to sing us a song. We all love her here, and then Derek will arrive shortly with his band. Lets give Fiona a warm welcome."

Jorgen claps but it's rather unethusiastically. It was normal for him. he gave her a small smile and nod.

Fiona was still in the back as the small crowd applaused. She put a butterfly barrette in her hair, and stood up looking in the mirror. she straightened out her white sundress and cracked her knuckles. Her tatto on her back was visible, the elegant vines worked up her spine, and a attractive barely dressed fairy sat on her neck. She took in a deep breath, grabbed her guitar and headed for the stage.

As ragnard heard that fiona was playing he thought "hmm intresting she plays the guitar" he sits and is gonna listen to fiona play her music.

Derek and Allor walked in just as the manager was finishing his announcement. The owner went over and whispered something in his ear. "Uh.. It seems there's been a change in the program. Fiona and the new band are going to play together, as one of the band members is sick today."

((dammit I gotta go back in an hour or so))

She had no shoeson her feet, thats the way she enjoyed to sing. She saw Jorgen and gave him a small smile. she sat on the stool, and a waitress placed a cup of water on the stand beside her. She nodded and took a little sip. She didnt appear to be nervous at all, she has done this plenty of times before. "The song Im singing tonight isnt actually one I wrote." she said into the mic. "But it's one of my favorites."
She began to finger pick at her guitar strings, playing a soft melody for a few minutes then she opened her mouth and began

"let's sail away past the noise of the bay
let's sail away past the birth and death of the day
let's sail away to where the blues and greens swirl into gray
let's sail away
let's sail away past the cradle of these waves
let's sail away past the tide and its slow decay
let's sail away to where the water goes-some endless open space
let's sail away
take only what you need, my love, and leave the rest behind
don't be afraid of where we'll go, my love
i promise you will be fine
now you are the only one thats mine
let's sail away past the reflections of the light
let's sail away floating weightless through the night
let's sail away like a photograph, fading to all white
it's finally all right
forget all the mistakes my love
they won't be made again
leave the photos in the drawer, my love
we no longer need them
we both know where we've been
let's sail away disappearing in a mist
let's sail away with a whisper and a kiss
or vanish from a road somewhere, like tereza and tomas,
suspended in this bliss." she finished picking at her guitar and looked out at the crowd.

][ sorry about that. if you really need it. I can double up and still play with you derek. ][

Allor looked up and arched a pierced an eyebrow. She had spotted Jorgen who gave a small nod. She returned it. They had a way of talking wioithout saying anything. She glanced at Fiona.

Jorgen walked up to Allor. "Sure you have all of those wholes filled?"

Allor laughed. She counted. "Three in each ear, tongue, lip, and eybrow. Oh and in a week, my nose will be added."

Jorgen chuckles and shakes his head. "Are you a pain addict?"

Allor nods.

She smiled as the crowd applauded her. She took another sip of her water, and strummed clumsly at her guitar a bit. She ran her fingers into her hair, getting relaxed. "Hmm what to sing what to sing." she said into the mic with a smile, and the crowd smiled a bit. She went into deep thought for a few seconds...

][brb][

She sat straight up. "Ah I got it." she started playing softly. Her fingers moving gracefully. "Some of you regulars might know this one. I wrote this when I thought I was in love." she stated and played the beginning rough then it softened and she started to sing

"In a passing moment.
A quick graze of pink lips against mine.
For that brisk second.
heaven was mine.

In a passing moment.
Blissful Skin tangled with mine
Everything drowns into our pores
heaven was mine

In a passing moment
He'd grab my shaking hand
Kiss my cold fingers
Wipe away my tears
and
Kiss my chapped lips

Heaven was mine

I'd crawl into his lap
In that passing moment
Look into his eyes
and he Smiled
His hands mazed in my hair.

"You're beautiful"
Heaven was mine
He spoke those words simply
Put heaven into my heart
It stayed on my lips

In that passing moment"

the words faded off and she waited for a applaud again

][hey where did everyone go :-( ][

][i dunno i guess everyone left][

][..waits..][

ragnard applauded. shes great at this music.applaudes again

"this gets me thinking dont i have a bass guitar at home"ragnard said to himself.

Allor applauded Fiona slowly. She smiled giving her a small nod. It was her way of 'giving props'.

((I DID say I was leaving, people... Not everybody has the luxury of being on all day y'know 😉))

The owner took Derek to a back room and let him try his acoustic bass. When Derek was ready, a couple waiters set up a drumset on the small stage. Derek climbed up on the short platform with the awkward instrument and tuned it one last time.

Allor made her way over to the stage. She climbed up not waiting for anyone to help her. She walked over to the drumset.
