As a nod to the 80's, she wore a denim jacket over a fitted white teeshirt, beneath those were tight leather pants that formed to her curves. The pants were tucked into white leg warmers, over plain black and white nikes. Her hair was teased up and big. Her make-up was dark, and glam. Her lips painted bright red. Large hoop earrings dangled from her earlobes. Leather fingerless gloves were fitted over her hands. Gold and silver bangle bracelets drooped from her wrists.
Because of her love of Journey, Boston, and other power ballad bands, Heather had gone with a few great songs. She was finishing up with Journey's Faithfully, a favorite of hers, and it was easy to feel the words, especially now. Even though she couldn't see him, with the spot light shining on her she couldn't see much in the audience, she sang with Tony in mind. There was no doubt where her heart lay with the emotion in her tone, that flowed into the microphone.
"Highway run...
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You're on my mind..."
"Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sending all my love
Along the wire."
"They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music woman
Ain't always what it's supposed to be
Oh, boy, you stand by me
I'm forever yours..."
"Faithfully"
"Circus life..."
"Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile..."
"Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you..."
"And being apart
Ain't easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy of rediscovering you
Oh, boy, you stand by me
I'm forever yours..."
"Faithfully"
She held a note, a flowing whoa for several beats, before she had to take a breath and let another set flow. The third set was held as long as she could, before she had to take a breath.h
"Faithfully
I'm still yours"
"I'm forever yours
Ever yours
Faithfully"
As the music faded the spotlight winked out. There were quite a few guests that stood and applauded. The house lights went up and she was still on the stage, she bowed. Drawing the microphone to her mouth she laughed and fanned the people to sit down. "You guys are great. Remember tip your waitress, they work hard for you guys. And if you're feeling really generous tip the good looking bouncer on your way out." Of course she was referring to Tony. But she wouldn't name names. And if Sirius or one of the other security guards got tipped as well, what harm did it do?
She clicking the mic off she slipped it back into the stand and made her way down the stairs that were on one side of the stage. Rather than going back to the dressing room, since her set was up she went to the bar, signing a few autographs on her way to it. Sliding onto a stool, vacated just for her, she ordered a drink.
It had been a good week. She made a new friend, though he was rather young. Tony asked her to move in with him... Though in a certain light that was slightly bittersweet because she had to leave behind a friend that was in need. But she didn't regret the move. She had missed spending most of the nights in the week with him. Now she could spend every night wrapped up in his arms.
