Kiro was bored. I had expected this from him. When he was bored, we went on tour. Every damn time. Our manager had tried to convince him to wait until next summer, but the best he could do was this winter. Kiro wasn’t waiting a year to get onstage and feel the power that came with fans screaming his name.

Sitting through meetings at our Beverly Hills house with the rest of the band had been tedious. One week had been annoying, but two weeks had been brutal. Kiro and his social life had slowed over the years, but when he was going through shit mentally, he tended to fill the void with people. Mostly women. Lots of them.

Once things were decided and tour stops chosen, Kiro had something to focus on, and I was free to go back to Florida. The only good thing to come of it all was, I’d been busy enough to keep Brielle out of my head. Not entirely, but for the most part.

The August heat was like walking in a sauna. I considered putting on swim trunks and getting in the pool, but then I would be noticed. There was no hiding behind glasses and a hat in the pool. My Slacker Demon tattoo would be a dead giveaway, if nothing else.

Staying inside with the air conditioner was the only way to get relief. Just as I settled on the fact that I’d be alone in my penthouse all day, my phone alerted me of a text. I looked down and saw the general contractor for the renovations to the building was asking me about the dead palm tree on the south end of the property. I wasn’t sure which one he was talking about, so I texted back that I’d meet him there in ten minutes. Then, I stood up and grabbed my hat and glasses before heading to the private exit.

The oppressive weather slapped me in the face as I walked out of the elevator and through the gate leading from my garage to the apartment grounds. I hoped this shit didn’t take long. I glanced at the pool, and the image of Brielle’s bikini-covered ass popped in my head, and I jerked my gaze off the pool area and kept walking to the south part of the property.

I wasn’t going to think about her. I’d been doing good. Out of sight, out of mind. Right?

“Holy shit.”

I paused and turned toward the voice.

Standing on the sidewalk adjacent to the path I was on was a boy. He was older than Nate, but he was still young. Brown hair was long enough that he had it tucked behind his ears. My gaze went to the drumsticks in his hands. He was just carrying them around. Twirling them. Possibly playing on things other than drums when he felt the beat. I’d once done the same thing.

The boy recognized me, and oddly, he looked familiar to me.

I smiled at him. “Hello.”

His jaw dropped slightly. “No way,” he muttered, then shook his head.
