Shea burst into the apartment, holding up shopping bags in each hand.

“You’ll never guess what I found!” she said, grinning from ear to ear.

Brooklyn and Addy, sitting at the table, doing their work, looked at Shea before returning to their work.

Shea’s shoulders sagged as she looked at them.

“Come on, guys,” she said. “This isn’t just some random thing I bought. I got the stuff for the Halloween party!”

Brooklyn and Addy looked at Shea, sitting up straight. They looked at each other with grins, then scrambled to hurry to their roommate.

“Ooh! Let me see what you got!” Brooklyn said, peering into one of the bags.

The roommates pulled the items from the bags, oohing and aahing over the decorations.

Once they had examined everything, Addy asked, “You’ve checked the weather for the night of the party, right?”

Shea nodded and said, “Definitely don’t need it to rain when we’re holding our party on the roof.”

Brooklyn said, “Since it’s starting to cool down, that’s all we’d need.”

    “Oh, great!” Cort muttered as Carl walked toward their table. “And here I thought our night would end on a good note.” Carl spotted them and froze, staring at the table. Finally, he pressed his lips together and continued toward them. Reaching the table, he paused before nodding at Lewis. “I, uh, just wanted to congratulate you on your win tonight,” he said. Lewis’s mouth dropped open as his eyes widened. “Uh, thanks, man,” he said, standing up to face Carl. Carl stared at him before holding out his hand to Lewis. Lewis looked at it before taking it and shaking it. “Better luck next year,” he said. Carl pressed his lips together before smiling and saying, “You know it. Watch your back. I’m going to take home the trophy next year.” “I’ll put up a good fight,” Lewis told him. “But I know you’ll be right there with me.” Carl stared at him, then nodded and moved to his table. The group watched him leave. “Well, looks like those girls have a new target,” Brooklyn mut

    “While I agree that pictures of the guys on the website would benefit them, I think their fans are more interested in their music and where the band will play next,” Brooklyn said, raising one eyebrow at the other girls. The girls frowned and looked away from her as Brooklyn stared at them. Brooklyn smirked as she looked away. Turning back to Cort, she asked, “How soon do you think you can get the website up and running? I can forward the information to Randall at the paper, and he might be able to publish the news so you can get more traffic.” Cort looked at Bradford and raised his eyebrows. Bradford grinned at him and said, “I’ll start work on it tomorrow after I get some sleep.” “That sounds like a plan, my man,” Cort said, pointing at him. “We can’t wait to see it,” Jazz said. Before anyone could say anything more, the server walked past the group and headed toward their table. “Does everyone know what they want?” she asked, her pen poised above her notepad. “We’ll g

    “What do you want to do now?” Brooklyn asked after the club shut down for the night. “I’m too pumped to go home.” “There’s that all-night diner a couple of blocks over,” Cort suggested. “It doesn’t look like much, but the food is decent. We’ve been there a few times after gigs.” “Their hashbrowns are to die for,” Bradford said, putting his hand on his chest and rolling his eyes into the back of his head. “That seals the deal for me,” Shea said, linking her arm through Bradford’s. “If they have the best hashbrowns, I’m in.” “Same,” Addy said. “There’s something about good hashbrowns. You never forget them.” “That’s very true,” Brooklyn said. “If it’s the place I’ve read about, all their food is good.” “Did your paper write a review of the place?” Cort asked her. Brooklyn nodded and said, “Brian reviewed it, saying it was good and cheap.” “Then, that sounds like the perfect place to go right now,” Lewis said. “Because I don’t have much money on me, but I’m starving.”

    “What about you?” Brooklyn asked Cort. “Are you nervous about possibly playing at that club?” Cort shrugged and said, “It’s just another gig to me.” “That’s one way to look at it,” Brooklyn said, tilting her head to look at him. He looked at her and grinned. “If we decide to play there, will you be writing a review of the show?” he asked. She nudged him with her shoulder and said, “You know it.” Shea threaded her arm through Bradford’s and asked, “Do you think you and Cort will like the club enough to play there?” Bradford looked at her and shrugged. “I’ve not been, so I can’t tell you for sure that we’ll like it,” he told her before tapping the tip of her nose with his finger. “Besides, you’ll be there with me, so it won’t be a wasted trip if we decide not to book a gig there.” Shea smiled at him and said, “You say the sweetest things.” “Only to the sweetest girl,” he told her, kissing the tip of her nose. Shea giggled and brushed her lips over his. “You two are so s

    Kendall rushed over to Lewis as he came near the table. She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him. “That was awesome!” she said. “Did you get it all recorded?” He nodded, grinning at her, and said, “I did! I can’t wait to get it back home and edit it so I can show the guys.” “I know they’re going to love it,” Kendall said, kissing him again. “Excuse me, but did you just say you filmed the band?” Lewis and Kendall turned to see one of the four women who had approached the table talking to them. “Yeah,” Lewis said as he nodded. “I’m their friend and a filmmaker-,” “An award-winning filmmaker,” Kendall broke in. Lewis grinned at her before looking at the other woman and continuing. “I filmed their performance, so they can view it later,” he said. “I’m sure it’s going to be amazing,” the woman said. “I’m Amber, by the way.” “Lewis,” he told her. “And this is Kendall.” Amber kept her eyes on Lewis as she said, “So nice to meet you.” Kendall frowned an

    “You all were awesome up there!” Shea told Bradford when the guys rejoined them at the table. “I’ll say,” Addy said, looping her arm through Troy’s. “You did a wonderful job. I was so proud of you.” She leaned forward to brush her lips over his. “If it means more kisses from you, I’ll get back on that stage right now,” Troy said, grinning at her. Addy giggled and snuggled closer to him. “This is definitely getting a good write-up in my next article,” Brooklyn told them, slipping her phone back into her purse. Cort slipped his arms around her waist, and she leaned into his embrace. “That’ll be good publicity for the band,” he said. “Too bad Dex wasn’t here. Then we’d have the full band.” “You still sounded good without him,” Lewis said. “You can see for yourself once I get the video I took of you edited.” Cort, Troy, and Bradford looked at him with wide eyes. “You filmed us?” Cort asked. “I sure did,” Lewis said, grinning at his friend. “I thought you migh

    “Let’s order some drinks,” Troy said. “I’ll stay here and watch the purses,” Bradford offered. “I want to check out this DJ more to see if I can add anything to my performance the next time we play.” “Sure thing, man,” Cort told him. “I’ll get you your usual.” “Thanks, my man,” Bradford said. Cort nodded before he joined Troy and Lewis as they headed toward the bar to order their drinks. Bradford kept an eye on the ladies’ purses as he watched the DJ spin the tunes. He nodded to the beat and grinned. The DJ noticed him and smiled at him before waving him onstage. Bradford looked around and saw the guys coming back with their drinks. He signaled to them that he was getting on the stage. Cort nodded and jerked his chin toward the DJ. Bradford grinned and climbed the stairs at the back of the stage to join the DJ. Cort put the drinks on the table and called out to Bradford. When he looked, Cort held up his fists, giving him two thumbs up. Bradford grinned and returned t

    Kendall squeezed Lewis’s arm as his film began. Her eyes never left the screen as his movie played out. Lewis looked around at his friends and the rest of the audience while his film played. Their attention seemed focused on the screen. He smiled and nodded. Once his film finished, he whispered to Kendall, “I think everyone liked it.” She squeezed his arm as she grinned up at him. “I know they did,” she said. Addy leaned forward, reaching over Troy to pat Lewis on the arm. “That was amazing,” she said, grinning at him. Troy nodded, giving Lewis a thumbs up. Brooklyn looked up from her phone to nod at him with a grin while Cort nodded once. Shea and Bradford both gave him a thumbs up. He grinned at his friends and nodded before returning his attention to the screen. Two more films played before Lewis leaned over to Kendall and whispered, “Carl’s film is next.” Before Kendall could respond, Carl whispered, “Now, you’re going to see some real filmmaking.”
