"Come on! We'll be late!" I yelled.

"Just gimme a second, my hair looks like shit." My twin sister, Cynthia responded.

"The boys will be here any minute, and we do not wanna miss the ride."

"Roger will wait on me, don't worry." Cynthia giggled.

I rolled my eyes and walked down the hall into our kitchen.

Our journey with The Who had begun 7 months ago, when we ran into John at a bar in London.

I had immediately fallen for John, upon our meeting.

John had then taken us to their next show, which started in 47 minutes.

We followed him backstage where he introduced us to the rest of the band.

When Cynthia and Roger's eyes met, she blushed as he looked her up and down.

"Eh John, where'd ya get these birds?" Asked Pete.

"Just found 'em in a bar."

"They look like fun to me!" Keith grinned slyly.

But now, they were on their way to our house to pick us up for their next show, and if Cynthia didn't hurry up getting ready, they'd leave us behind.

I saw the infamous navy blue van pull into the driveway.

"Cynthia, you're gonna get left! They're here."

"I'm almost done!" She yelled from the bathroom.

There was a knock at the door and I ran to open it.

There stood Pete tapping his foot impatiently.

"Ugh I'm sorry Petey, Cyn is taking forever."

"Well we ain't got all day." Pete snapped.

Cynthia came running from the back of the house, looking very flustered.

"You haven't forgotten anything, have you Cyn?" I asked her.

Cynthia looked around her. "No.... I don't think so."

"Great now lets get going." Pete said firmly.

We quickly got into the van, where they were waiting for us.

"Took ya long enough." Roger laughed.

"Sorry Rog, I had to make self look good for you." Cyn said flirtatiously.

"You did a good job, luv." Roger chuckled.

I giggled as I sat next to John.

"Hi Johnny boy."

John looked at me and smiled. "Well hullo, darling."

I scooted closer to him and a piece of my hair fell onto my face.

John swept it behind my ear and sweetly kissed my forehead.

"It's been a while. A bit too long actually." John said sadly.

I sighed. "I know. I haven't been able to get off work enough to come visit you."

"That's alright. I have missed you though."

I smiled at John and looked down the van at Keith.

Keith grabbed two large bottles of brandy, and held them in the air.

"Anyone care for a drink? Ladies?" Keith asked.
