At the door, Lacy smirked. “You know, I didn’t get where I am without instinct.”

“What’s your instinct telling you?”

“A half naked rockstar finds a woman on his bed. You know damn well what I would have done with you. You took a cold shower. You’re distant. You’re insistent about not naming Alyson.”

“And…?”

Lacy patted Ryker’s shoulder. “I hope it all works out. For both your sakes.”

Ryker slammed the door as Lacy walked away.

He ordered breakfast and the band came crashing into his room. Portis had a theory that if he gave them all separate rooms they’d stay out of trouble. All that did was give Colby and Tessa a room alone, and it gave Jett and Masie a room alone.

“How was your interview?” Van asked.

“Pointless.”

“What did she bother you about?” Brantley asked.

“The usual. I really don’t like doing those without you guys. This isn’t a solo thing.”

“It’s all for the band,” Colby said. “No worries.”

Ryker stood at the window, feeling distant. He looked at the parking lot, waiting for the car to show up.

“What’s wrong?” Jett asked.

“Nothing.”

“Don’t bullshit me.”

“I’m not.”

“I’ll fight you.”

“That’s the best you’ve got?”

“It’s what we do,” Jett said. “Right? The two guitarists battling forever.”

“How’s Masie?”

“Great. Glad I got to get her to sneak away.”

“That’s good, man.”

“What about you?” Jett asked. “How was the interview? She worthy of Ryker’s time?”

Ryker laughed. “No. I want nothing to do with talking right now. I just want music.”

“That’s a change. You usually love to talk about yourself.”

“Thanks.”

“Anytime. But seriously, you look skittish.”

A car pulled into the parking lot and stopped. It just sat there, brakes lights on. Even from this high up, Ryker just knew…

Then his cell phone beeped.

“I have to go,” Ryker said to Jett. “Just stall for me, man.”

“What’s wrong?”

“It’s Randy.”

“No fucking way.”

Ryker moved and Jett grabbed his arm. “Hey, brother. Be careful. Your brother is a piece of shit.”

“I know.”
