Chapter 17

Three months later

"I'll fly back at least once a week." Connor promised as he kissed her again. "Argh, I can't believe they're making me do this. I don't even want to go." He kissed her again.

Ash laughed at him and gave him a gentle shove towards the taxi waiting at the kerb.

"Go, have fun. You'll forget all about me as soon as you do the first gig."

Connor shook his head vehemently "Not a chance. I will miss you like crazy the entire time I'm gone."

"Yeah, yeah, you'll be too busy fighting away all those teenage girls." Ash thought about what she said for a second before adding. "You better push them away."

Connor took her hands in his and looked deep into her eyes.

"You're the only one for me Ash. I love you, with a passion I've never felt for anybody before."

Ash reached her hand up and brushed his cheek. She tried to form the words to say it back, but she still couldn't force herself to do it. She could feel the love burning a hole in her chest and it scared the hell out of her, but she couldn't say it out loud.

Connor kissed her again and then climbed into the taxi, he really didn't want to go, but the record label had booked him in for a three-month tour; twelve weeks of running around the country, doing radio and TV spots and concerts. Twelve weeks without Ash.

He'd asked her to come, he'd even tried begging, and he knew she was right, but it didn't help eliminate that sinking feeling in his stomach. The most she'd agree to was the possibility of flying up to Brisbane and spending the weekend with him while he was there, not even a promise. Only a possible, "If we can make it work I'll look at it." Connor would pull out all stops to make sure it happened though. He knew he was in for a jam packed three months, but he also knew he was going to miss her while he was gone. He hoped it wasn't too much for Ash.

His first stop was Sydney. And it was the whirlwind he'd expected. He was chauffeured from radio station to TV station to concert venue. He wasn't playing any big gigs, the label execs didn't want to risk empty seats so they chose smaller venues, mostly local pubs and clubs, but Connor liked it that way, they were his roots and it made him feel like a real rock star. Especially when he considered, the likes of Cold Chisel and ACDC had started out playing the Sydney club scene back when he was a baby. Hell, he'd been playing Melbourne pubs his whole life. He loved the pubs. He did morning TV gigs, he did so many radio interviews that he lost count and he even did a few current affairs interviews.

The first pub concert was surreal, he thought he'd played in some crowded pubs in the past, but he soon learnt he had no idea.
