I Thought I Was Better Than This

Chapter Two

Tommy walked onto the stage with Paul and Gene.

Eric Singer was already at his drums and the crowd began to cheer.

I was jumping up and down, wearing a SpaceMan costume like Tommy's.

He was still looking quite fit for a rockstar.

As the lead guitarist strummed his guitar, he caught the sight of a young 21 year old woman watching him.

She had her finger nails painted dark blue, silver, and white.

Just like him!

Several hours later, Tommy was back in his dressing room after a show well played.

He let out a yawn as he sat down by the vanity.

Before the guys showed up, he decided to take a selfie of himself for the fans on Instagram.

After he took the selfie, he posted it on the internet.

It wasn't long before the photo got millions of likes and shares.

Tommy smiled to himself as he gently began washing off the makeup from his face.

Eric skipping across the hallway to the Spaceman's dressing room.

"Hey Tommy, what'cha doing"?

The Catman made a funny face and that made Tommy chuckle.

"I'm just taking off the makeup, what about you"?

They both shared a friendly conversation.

And before long, the sound of Gene's grunts rang through their ears.

Paul walked in through the doorway, having already taken a shower.

"Gene's got one groupie in his dressing room".

He said and smiled with a snicker.

Tommy just shook his head while laughing.

After everyone left the area, they got into the limo and rode all the way to the hotel.

A group of lucky KISS fans were spending time with KISS for a week.

I happened to be one of them.

Still dressed in my costume and the makeup fading away due to sweating, I aimlessly wandered around the hotel lobby looking for someone to help me.

Tommy Thayer was the second KISS band member to walk inside the building.

His eyes were met with the same girl who he had seen before at the concert.
