《From This Dream》After Party
Advertisement
Two weeks after Elijah's birthday we were on the road again. We were only on the road for two weeks. Which is good for me because being pregnant on a bus with three kids two other females and three men were a lot to be around all the time.
This pregnancy is different than Elijah's. I was more open to cuddling and being close to Jimi all the time. But when someone else would touch me I hated it. They weren't Jimi. A hug now and then was fine but in the middle of a conversation and they touch my arm or feel my stomach... I've had enough. I wouldn't get mad but i'd have a look. The look said enough. Everyone was scared to touch me Beside Jimi and Elijah. The girls were fine most of the time unless they were whiny.
We did shows in a couple of states as we were walking out of the venue to leave I heard a man say 'I'll be with you soon my love'. I thought he was talking to me but I didn't stay long to find out. The day after that I got strange messages on my twitter and Instagram. From a stranger who calls me his wife and wants me. He says he's been watching me for a while and coming to get me soon. It's very strange but I ignore it.
I put my phone down after reading the messages and tweets and get up from my bunk. I walk to the front and see everyone is up. I walk to Jimi and sit beside him. He wraps his arms around me and holds me. My phone goes off again and I ignore it.
"Who's that babe?"
"Probably my stalker."
"Stalker..? You have a stalker..?" I take my phone and show him the messages. He was pissed.
"Karen you and Elijah are not leaving my sight. You should have told me."
"I did. I just got them this morning."
"Should have said right away. Not wait til you got another creepy message." Kimberly looks at us.
"What's goin on?"
"Karen is being stalked by this creepy guy. Thinks she is his wife. Says he's coming to get her soon."
"Should we call the cops?"
"I'm thinking about it."
"Woah, no cops. And I'm right here. Y'all can include me into the conversation too. I'm Fine. The baby is fine. Everyone here is fine. No cops."
"Karen-"
"No. I'm putting my foot down. No cops. Nothing happened. he's probably trying to scare me. It's not working."
We agreed to drop the conversation and discuss tonight's show. Once all the detailed were figured out we just relaxed and enjoyed the quiet. Wait. It's quiet.
"It's too quiet... where are the kids?"
"Playing in the back... but you're right. It's too quiet." We get up and walk to the back. They were all asleep in the floor. It was the most adorable thing. Jimi got Elijah and put him in his bunk while Kimberly and Phillip got their two and put them to bed. We moved back to the front and relaxed.
Everything was going smoothly and we arrived at the venue. The crew set up the stage for soundcheck and the show. We stayed on the bus until they were ready for us. The kids woke up just after we arrived and wanted ice cream. Everyone was pretty busy at them moment. Jimi and Philip were polishing their guitars for tonight. Kimberly was in the middle of cooking, and Rebecca was in the shower while Steve was sleeping. So i offered to take them, once I said that Jimi was up and said he would go too. I look at him

"Finish polishing your guitar."
"Its okay. I can finish it later."
"Jimi I can take the kids out alone. I don't need a babysitter."
"I just wanna make sure you're okay and that you can handle all three kids."
"I have done it before. I can do it again." I help the girls get ready and Jimi gets Elijah ready.
Once they were ready I walked them to the ice cream shop I bought them their favourite ice cream and got myself one. We sat on a bench for a while just eating our ice cream and Elijah tapped in my shoulder.
"Ma..." I looked at him and he was pointing to a man taking photos of us. I couldn't see his face but I decided to take the kids back to the bus. I walked them back while they were eating. We got on and they sat down to finish and I went to Jimi who was putting his guitar away.
"Hey babe, back so soon?"
"Yeah... some guy started taking pictures of me and the kids so I brought them back."
"Is everyone okay?"
"Yeah we are all fine. Just got a bad feeling."
"Okay baby. Thank you for telling me. I love you."
"I love you too." I hug him and smile. I pull back so I can eat my ice cream. He smiles and kisses my cheek and finishes putting his guitar away. I walk back to the front and sit on the couch.
Kim finished making stir fry and chicken. She gave everyone some and we all ate.
Once done we all got cleaned up and get ready. We did sound check everything was great. The show was great as well and the crowd was amazing. There was an after party with some VIP members and we stayed out until 1am. The bus was scheduled to leave at noon tomorrow so we could stay out. Jimi could see it but he was more frisky than anything. The smell of all the alcohol made me feel sick and having Jimi kiss me and breathe on me was making it worse.
He kept holding me and wanting to give me kisses but I turned everything he wanted down. I was comfortable sitting in the booth with padded seats and padded back rests. Kimberly was with me for a while than went to get another drink. A man walked to my booth and Smiled. I was polite and smiled back. He took a seat across from me.
"Your too pretty to be sitting all by yourself Karen."
"Thanks...." I was Kinda nervous that he knew my name.
"Don't be scared. I'm a big fan and had VIP tickets. I know your name from being a fan." That made me feel much better.
"Thank you. I'm here with the rest of the band. So I'm not alone."
"Why aren't they here?"
"They're drinking and having fun."
"But you're not. Are you not having fun?"
"I am. I am just getting over the flu and didn't wanna drink. Thought I might get sick or something."
"Oh, well a drink would help a lot."
"Really, I'm okay."
"I meant of water.."

"Oh, um I'm fine."
"I don't mind. If you're sick and up this late you need to stay hydrated."
"Really sir, I'm fine."
"Alright, if you say so. But I'm assuming a dance would be a no..?"
"I'm married with a baby, I would have to decline, I don't think my husband would like that."
"I understand. Have a good night Karen."
"Good night." He takes my hand and kisses the top of it and walks away. I sit there a little taken back as Jimi Walks up.
"What was that about..?"
"He was a fan and saw I was alone."
"And..?"
"He wanted to get me a drink of water and have a dance. I decline both offers."
"Good." I look up at him and give him a look. "Not in a bad way babe, but he could have put something in your drink or did something while dancing... I just want you safe and okay."
"I am safe. But I won't be okay if I have to stay up any longer. I'm tired."
"C'mon babe. A few more minutes."
"Jimi no, I'm tired, I wanna Sleep. I need it now."
"Babe we are having so much fun. But if you wanna go back then we can."
"It's fine. Just stay and party and I'll go back myself."
"No baby, you're not goin alone."
"I'm not alone. I have the baby." I walk towards the door through a crowd full of people. Jimi tries to follow but is slowed down. I make it outside and the man who sat with me was outside as well.
"Hey... you leaving so soon?"
"Uhh yeah... tired."
"Oh, okay. You okay to walk by yourself or you need someone..?"
"I'm okay. Thanks though."
"No worries. Just trying to be a gentleman." I smile and walk to the bus. I get on and walk to the back to change. I lay in bed and just relax and fall asleep.
The next morning I wake up and get up getting breakfast. Everyone was drinking so they'll sleep in for a bit. I would love to see how Jimi ended up. I walk to his bunk and pull back his curtain. His bed was empty. I look for him in the other bunks and in the back. I start freaking out and wake Phillip and Kim.
Kim and Phillip both groan and stay in their bunks.
"Jimi's not here!"
"Kare He is in his bunk."
"He's not Kim. I just looked. He's not on this bus!." She and Phillip get up as I finish saying that. Phillip Walks around.
"He can't be too far maybe just out for a walk."
"Did he come back with y'all last night?"
"Uhh..."
"Phillip?! How could you just leave him?! Y'all are suppose to come back together or with a buddy! Now my husband is missing!" Kimberly comes over.
"Karen honey please calm down."
"Calm down?! My husband is missing and you want me to calm down?!"
"For that baby we need you too."
"I need to find my husband."
"You can't do that if you end up in hospital. Now have a seat and take a few deep breathes. Phillip is gonna look for him and bring him back."
"I'm goin too."
"Karen..."
"Kim if you want me calm, then me helping to look is the best."
"Okay... I'll watch the kids. Stay with Phillip."
"I will."
Phillip and I have searched the whole back building where the party was. Now we are in the venue looking. Phillip goes to his dressing room he had and I go to mine. I found him laying asleep on the couch. I call Phillip.
"Hello?"
"I found him. I'll meet you back on the bus. I gotta talk to my husband."
"Thank the lord. I'll tell Kim." We hang up and I walk over to Jimi and clap my hands. He jumps and yells some.
"Kare...?"
"The hell where you thinking!? You never came back to the bus! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?! I couldn't find you for hours."
"Don't yell..." he rubbed his head in pain. Must be hungover.
"Jimi I am pregnant with our second miracle child. And you weren't on the bus this morning when I woke. Yelling is the best you're getting."
"Baby I'm sorry... I was drunk and I thought this was the bus."
"Then I guess you shouldn't have drank that much." I take a seat on the chair beside the couch and breathe deeply. He watches me closely.
"Baby are you okay...?"
"I'm not okay... I woke up to find my husband not with me the next morning. Couldn't find him anywhere. Not only to be searching for hours to find him passed out in the changing room. Jimi stress is the last thing I need and you just caused me to have a complete melt down..." I was mad but I couldn't stay mad. By the end of my speech I had a sad and scared tone with a hint of sincere.
"I'm really sorry baby... I know it's the last thing you need and I never meant for this to happen. I remember you and I having a talk and you left... I was following you and I remember some guy passing me a drink and we had a glass together... I don't remember after that... everything is black. Like someone erased my memory."
"Could you have been drugged...?"
"I don't know... maybe..? I feel awful."
"Gosh... baby I'm sorry... I really thought you were a drunken idiot.... baby if you were drugged anything could have happened to you... I don't want you out of my sight. Or Elijah. I get scared and I freak out." I move on my knees in front of him holding his hands.
"Baby please don't worry. I'm here and everything is okay. Let's get you back to the bus and relaxed."
"And you. If you were drugged you'll need rest, water and food."
We both get up and head to the bus slowly. We eventually make it and we just spend the time together with our families and relax while the bus drives to the next show.

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully.

Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…
