ummm here.

Parte Une (I)

I wake up with a start from a deep sleep. I look at my sparkly guitar-alarm clock--5:07 AM. There is no way I'm getting up at this time. The time zone change is definitely getting to me--back in New York it'd be the normal time to wake up. I think of tomorrow--how it will be by far the greatest day of my life. I fall into a daydream;the crowd roaring, ears ringing from the insanely loud music, out of my mind emotional...

Stumbling back to reality, I realize that I should be asleep..and that my dream is still far away. I turn over on the creaky, ratty hotel bed i share with my boyfriend. He's still in a deep sleep until I just happen to yank on his baggy shirt. He stirs, and I say softly, "Go back to sleep..it's early." He turns over to face me and says, "I don't want to go back to sleep...I'm awake now." His eyes are gazing straight into mine.

I smile at his thoughts. "So...what do you want to do now that we're both awake?...." I let my voice trail off to see his reaction. His eyebrows are raised. Then I hit him with the zinger: "You wanna play X-Box?" I smirk at his reaction..disappointed, then excitement, then disappointment again.

"Okay...but I get to be the guy this time. I'm tired of the cheerleader...."
