Years Ago...
Two children grew up in a small farming town. One boy, one girl.Becoming friends at a young age, their friendship never seemed to break. When the girl was 15, she dreamed of being a rock star. She had a wonderful singing voice and began to learn how to play guitar. She wasn't a tomboy, but a genious with music. It was her gift.
He took to writing dreaming of becoming a novelist one day using his imagination to inspire the world. Both supporting each other, until one tearfille day when the girl turned 18. She had started a band with a few friends of hers. All of them punk rockers, like herself, saved up money to buy bus tickets out of town. The boy and the girl parted their good-byes, each holding a secret crush for one another. Too young and afraid to admit their love, they watched each other vanish as the bus carried her and her friends down the rocky road of her dreams.
Present Day...
___ is a very talented punk rocker. Though her hand her band aren't famous yet, they often play in bars in hopes to one day be found by a scout. Now in her 20's she had changed from a clutzy teenager with dreams to a rocking punk woman hoping for a bright future. Poison Roses is the name of her band and it's very good. All of her band mates, and herself, went into college together, and graduated together, forming a tight group of friendship. A few months ago, she dated one of the punk rocker guys working at the bar. He was big and strong and handsome, complete with all the piercings and tatoos that made him attractive. One night, after playing in a bar, they both went out on a date which resulted in them having unprotected sex.
Finding out he was just using her for sex, he broke up when he found a better girl, leaving her with a broken heart. A month later, she became pregnant and at first thought about aborting the child. With some help from her mother and friends, her mind changed and she decided to keep the child. Two months along, she isn't showing much but you could tell if you looked close enough. Her pregnancy doesn't stop her from dressing in her outfits and rocking out on the stage.
_____ (my character), is a journalist. Having leaving the town a couple years later, he managed to score a job at a newspaper office, thanks to his college, and travels the world as a journalist. Writing a small fantasy series on the side, he hopes to one day start publishing books. His life hasn't been as adventurous as hers, but he has dated in the past. Most either broke up with him, or left him, so love is something he isn't into at the moment.
One night, after a gig at one of the local bars they play at, ____ decides to do a little shopping. As fate would have it, both of the friends bump into each other and meet for the first time as young adults. What will happen? Will old feelings stir within their hearts? Or will they reminice and go about their lives?
Our tale, picks up the night they meet. Tune in, to see what happens!

Another day, another dollar. Josh pulls into one of those 24 hour stores. Tired from all of the reserch he had been doing, he was planning to just pop in and pop out with a cheap dinner.
His assignment, to study the punk bands in town and write about them. It seemed easy, but it never really was. All Josh had to do was track one of the bands and write of their progress. All day he had been turned down, and now he was starting to get frustrated.
Entering the store he looked at his smartphone. He was running out of time, Josh really didn't want to give his boss the bad news, or worse end up fired! This was a simple assignment after all! With a sigh he walked down one of he ailes not sure what he wanted to do for dinner either.

A scummy looking van parked outside the shop with the doors sliding open and a few sweaty looking people jumping out. Even their crazy make up was running down their faces. They usually painted whatever they wanted on their faces, no set design. There were three guys and one girl that entered the store looking for random things and splitting up.
Ruby went to the cosmetic aisle and picked up a pack of make up remover wipes. She didn't even wanted to wait to pay and then use it, just wanting to get the sweaty make up as soon as possible. She had painted her neck jet black and added a few smears to her face to look grubby. Alot of her favourite bands did this type of look which is what inspired hers. Walking around, wiping the black paint off her face, she grabbed some booze for the guys to celebrate a good gig.

(Actually it's supposed to be an all girl rock band. razz XD but whatever lol )
If Josh were paying attention, he would have noticed the band walk in. Maybe this could have been a chance to score a spot in being their journalist, but he was too busy and too tired to notice. Walking out of one of the ailes, he passed a woman wiping something off of her face.Their eyes met for a moment and as she passed he stopped.
Turning his head he stared at the back of her head as she was walking along. "Ruby Harris?" he called out to her squinting a bit in an unsure face. There was no way it could be her..right? Yet he reconized that short girl's walk anywhere! Either that was his old friend, or Josh had just totally embarassed himself!

(oops.. did you write that somewhere? my bad xD )
Ruby walked straight past Josh too, not really taking much notice of him and wanting to just pay for the wipes and booze. Tonight they were apparently going to get drunk and trash a hotel room like usual.
Though, she heard her name from the guy who just passed. "yeah... who wants to know? Are you a fan or something?" she asked, turning around to see Josh standing right in front of her. "Woah.. no way... Josh?" Ruby stepped closer to inspect his face. It had to be him, the voice.. the hair.. the overall look was pure Josh, just much older.

(Yes it was in the intro. xD she's also a couple months pregant with one so I dunno if booze will be good for the baby D:! XD lol Everything is in the intro. ^^; )
The moment she said his name he smiled. "Been a while huh?" he replied softly. Out of the blue he hugged her gently. "It's been what a few years!" he said after the short friendly hug! "You look great! Though it looks like you've fallen face first into a puddle of mud."
Ruby was a punk rocker right? Wait! That's what she left the town to be after all! Tearing up a little he smiled softly at her. "What a small world huh? It's good to see you Ruby, I..I missed you." he said looking off to the side. Not wanting to bring up any painful memories he changed the subject.
"From how sweaty you appear, it seems you were able to follow your dream! This..is a bit late but..uhh..Congrats Ruby! Let me buy you some cookies or something."
Normally, he wasn't this foreward with someone especially a girl. Ruby was different, they used to tease each other all the time. Right now he wasn't sure what to say, or what was the right thing to say. Scratching the back of his head he blushed softly.
"Sorry, I'm not trying to come off as insulting. My mind is just everywhere at the moment." he sighed, "Are you busy? Maybe we could talk a little somewhere? Like dinner or something? You know catch-up? If not tonight I should be in town a bit, so maybe some other time. I-I hope I'm not being too foreward." he said shyly.

(lol I know... she isn't gonna drink it (: she got it for the others lol)
The hug came out of no where, not that she minded. Ruby had known Josh for so many years that a random hug like that was no problem, just came as a shock more than anything. "Yeah it has.... and what do you mean by mud?" she asked confused before realising he was talking about her face paint. "OH! yeah... need to clean it off.. but I probably won't, too tired right now"
He missed her? That was rather sweet of him to say "Same here, kinda wondered where life too you, seems like you're doing well" Ruby complimented, rubbing her eyes a little before her eyes shot open. Oh great, she was seeing her childhood friend for the first time in so many years and she probably stank from the sweat and dirty atmosphere of gigging. It made her a little embarrassed really. She probably looked like a mess.
Hanging out seemed like a good idea and he was right, it was way too late to think about it now "Sure, I'd like to know what you've been doing with yourself since I left" she smiled, looking to her left and getting a pack of gum for the guys. Their breaths were going to stink of booze and didn't want reminders of not being able to have any. "Do you have like a pen and paper or something so I can give you my cell?"

Josh smiled, "No I don't mind the face paint." he says with a nod. After all, she was a punk girl He didn't mind the smell, Josh knew she always put over 100 percent in her music. It was her passion. While the clerk was ringing up their things, he pulled out a small journaling notepad, ripped out a clean sheet and handed her a pen.
"So, you killed it tonight huh? You're music I mean." he smiled softly. "I should come hear you sometime Ruby, it's been a while since I've heard you sing." he says softly placing his hands in his jacket's pockets.
To be honest, the punk look was cute on her. Sure it had thrown him off when she first got into the punk look when they were younger, but Josh got used to it. He had to admit, she looked hot. Man he was tired, though would this be the chance..to finally say that he had a secret crush on her? A beautiful woman like her probably had someone already. Maybe he missed his chance.
After getting he number he payed for his food and walked out of the store with her. "Ruby, to be honest this is a little crazy seeing you again. I thought we would never meet once you left. Anyway, take care. Call me when you have time to spare." he said not wanting to hold her or her bandmates up.

She took the paper from him and started to jot down her phone number. It was only until recently that she actually learned it off by heart, kinda lucky really. She even put down her email just incase there was any problems with bad signal or whatever.
"Hmm? oh yeah we nailed it.. everyone was supportive and loved the music" Ruby explained, handing over the piece of paper to him. She then heard the slight drunken slurs of her band mates. begging her to just pay for the drinks so they could get back to the hotel. It looked like she was the one to drive that night. "Sorry about those guys.. I think they are still pumped from tonight" her eyes rolled, feeling annoyed that she couldn't really join in on the fun. That was the part she loved about a gig ending, getting blind drunk with your friends like a real rocker.
"I think I'm free in a few days.. we don't have any tour dates for another week" she explained to Josh. It was then Ruby noticed one of her band mates asleep in the car park. Just what she needed, "come on you... no more booze for you tonight" she said, trying to drag them into the van.

Josh smiled and helped her with her sleeping band mate. Once settled in the van he smiled at Ruby. "Well goodnight then. Call me in a few days, we can eat and talk."
In the moonlight he stared into her eyes a bit, haunting and alluring just as he remembered them. Her band mates were starting to crack open a case and he placed a hand on her shoulder. "Until we meet again." he softly said giving her shoulder a gentle squeeze before walking off into the darkness of the parking lot.
He couldn't believe it! Ruby looked as he remembered, only more mature and more womanly. She had grown up and the more he thought about it the more a light blush fell upon his face. Josh should stop this..it wasn't like she still cared about him or anything!
----------------------------------------------------------
Sure enough that next week he got a call from Ruby. Meeting at a casual fast-food place, he waited for her in the parking lot. Man was he nervous, he hadn't seen her in years and suddenly out of the blue they bump into each other. Pathetically, Josh couldn't stop thinking about her. It was like, he had traveled back in time.
