I wake up to Bryan's arms squeezing me aggressively and it felt like he could cause a bruise. I shiver at his rough voice and the fade scent of his beer breath. Ugh. "Hey, are you going to that stupid music store today?", i smile a bit, nodding. I miss going to Phil's. One, the good selections and two, the blonde angel behind the cash register that i can get a good view of even in the far back. I miss him. Seeing him.

I get up and change into my clothes out of my pjs, i then feel Bryan's rough grip on my wrist, "Hey, we barely hang out much. Especially when you have been going out to that music shop all the time.", i turn to face him, "I actually haven't been to the Phil's in the last few weeks. I've been off on my own ....chores", i actually been meeting up with a group for verbal abuse victims. I needed help. Nearly killed myself recently before i stop going to the music shop. I know i should leave Bryan but something is stopping me. 

"Oh? Then where have you've been going?", his face hardened at me, i clear my throat, internally shaking, "Um. Park.", he softened then nodded. "Okay.", he got dressed finally then grabbed my hand, "Seb, today i'll be joining you on this quest for music.", i forced a smile and nodded. "okay"

We get there and i don't see the gorgeous blonde behind the counter but only a girl with black hair with purple and blue tips dyed, one lip piercing yet a proper posture as she looked at me and smiled. "Welcome to Phil's Music Museum. Let me know if you need any help.", i smiled back and nodded then walked around the selection. I didn't realize Bryan was falling behind until she made the same introduction when Bryan walked in. I look through the selection until i suddenly felt there were eyes on me, i glance and see the girl's eyes study me as i was looking through. Not in a way of interest but collective way. 

I then hear the store door open to see the beautiful blonde walk in and quickly glance down before he noticed anything. He seemed to be focused on the girl behind the counter. I looked a few more music selections until i felt arms wrap around me, i smiled at the warmth and gentleness that was so sudden by Bryan.
I stole some glances from the angel behind the counter as i walked with Bryan. It makes me look like a possible cheating asshole on my part. The girl wasn't behind the counter anymore but the mystery on where she was disappeared when she accidentally bumped into me. Bryan got raged out before i could say anything, "Watch it!", i then felt the embarrassment crawl up in my cheeks, i spoke quietly, "It's fine, Bryan. She's just trying to do her job.", but Bryan wasn't having it or he just didn't hear me. I then see the angel of a blonde approach us, crap. "sir, it seemed to be a simple accident. If you don't simply calm yourself, I'm afraid by company policy i'm going to have to kick you out due to your hostile behavior.", i could feel my cheeks get more red as i lowered my head. 

It was quiet as i saw Bryan's head move from the angel's direction to mine then back at the angel. Hearing this angel's voice is like heaven. Stern-wise, kind of a small turn-on but right now wasn't a good time to be in that area. "I apologize.", i heard Bryan finally say, "Thank you, sir. Enjoy the rest of your day", he left with the girl. "Sebastian...", i managed to have the confidence to speak out, "You've said enough, Bryan.", he tried to speak again, "I'm sorry-", i shook my head, "Don't", i grabbed the music i wanted and headed to the cashier.

My mood shifted as i was close enough to the beautiful angel, even if this counter was separating us. I pushed myself to speak, "How are you these days?", i needed to hear him some more so i manage myself the rest of the day. It was like medicine. "One day at a time, it gets better", he smiled at me, god it was so beautiful, causing me to smile back, kind of forcing it. "Hope to see you soon?", i smile more hopfully to see if he would notice. He gave me his normal wink as i grabbed the bag, causing me to blush though i didn't realize until Bryan practically pushed me out the store.

I walk into the apartment then i hear the front door slam and see Bryan's pissed expression in my face. "What the hell was that?", i blinked, "What was what?", he raised his voice, "Don't play dumb!! That fucking cashier and you were flirting. Is that where you've been going? To his house instead of the shop???", i pursed my lips, holding tears, quickly shaking my head. "DON'T LIE, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!!", he raised a finger then went off the bedroom and locked himself in there. I heard him yell from the closed door, "HE WILL NEVER WANT YOUR STUPID ASS ANYWAY!!", i cleared my throat and grabbed my headphones and listened to my music on the laptop with the CDs.
