A Beautiful Mess – TK Leigh (1)

Looking at his watch, he saw that it was half past eight. He rushed out the front door of his office building and climbed into the waiting “Good evening, sir. Off to home then?” “Actually, Martin. Let’s make a quick detour. How fast can you get me to Johnny D’s in Davis Square?” “I can be there in fifteen minutes, tops.” “I’ll give you five thousand if you can get there in ten.”

Martin laughed. “Yes, sir.” He peeled into traffic, heading toward Davis Square. Less than ten minutes later, Martin pulled in front of Johnny D’s and Alexander ran inside. Carter saw him almost immediately and stood up from his chair. “Sir, is everything alright?” “Carter, pretend I’m not even here please. Just go on with what you were doing and I’ll be over at the bar.

If Miss Adler or Miss Murphy gets up from their table, please intercept them and get their drinks for them.” “Yes, sir. Oh, and just so you know, she hasn’t performed yet.” He smiled. “Thank you, Carter.” Alexander walked over to the bar and sat at a stool that hid him from most of the crowd sitting in the lower dining area that housed the stage.

He still had a great view of the actual stage and that was all he cared about. “Let’s all give it up for the lovely Laura!” the M.C. shouted into the microphone. The crowd’s response was mediocre at best, although Olivia cheered enthusiastically. She knew how difficult it was for anyone to get up on the stage and pour their hearts out to the audience.

And anyone who had the courage to even get on that stage deserved an enthusiastic response. “Next up. Well, looky here. Miss Olivia Adler has graced us with her presence! Libby get your cute butt up here!” Alexander shot daggers at the M.C., a decent looking guy in his mid- thirties with a shaved head and a short beard. That cute butt belonged to Alexander.

The thought of anyone else commenting on it made him wild with rage. He had never felt so possessive before and it was a strange feeling. Olivia walked up to the stage, carrying her guitar and waving to the crowd as she made her way through the room. Alexander smiled as he took in her appearance. She kept her long dark hair straight and chose to wear a tight yellow halter tank with a pair of dark jeans and giraffe print heels. She looked hot.

A guy followed her on stage and sat behind a set of congas. He was about the same height as Olivia and had very similar features. If Alexander didn’t know better, he would have thought they were related. She sat down at a chair positioned center stage and adjusted her microphone as she checked the tuning on her acoustic guitar.

“How’s everyone doing?” The crowd cheered. “Awesome.
