“Okay, once more from the top.” John counted off before playing the introduction
to a new song.
to a new song.
Justin counted the beats in his head and looked up from his guitar. They were
rehearsing in the legendary Abbey Road Studios. It was a spacious studio with
honey-colored hardwood floors set in a herringbone pattern, with upholstered
walls covered in reds and golds. After a few bars of the acoustic guitar and piano,
Justin sang a song he wrote for Lucy. Inspired by a dream he had after leaving
California, it was the most romantic song he had ever written.

Justin sang a song he wrote for Lucy. Inspired by a dream he had after leaving
California, it was the most romantic song he had ever written.
He lost himself in the music while playing his guitar and singing. He and Lucy
watched a sunset turn into a deep indigo night sky as he shared his feelings for her.
He had this dream the day after he left California and it had shaken him to his
core. But unlike his earlier dreams of violence and the need to protect her from
harm, this dream was more realistic than any of the others.

He had this dream the day after he left California and it had shaken him to his
core. But unlike his earlier dreams of violence and the need to protect her from
harm, this dream was more realistic than any of the others.
Justin closed his eyes, focusing on the lyrics about holding Lucy in his arms.
His dreams had always been highly realistic, but this recent dream was more
like a memory. It stimulated all his senses. He could not only feel Lucy in his arms,
he heard the sound of male voices singing in the background and the sounds of a
city below, as if they were on top of a building somewhere. The air was warm and
full of exotic scents that he couldn’t identify. He shuddered as this familiarity
washed over him. It was impossible. He had never shared a night like that with
Lucy. As the song ended, he was exhausted and miserable.“That was marvelous,”
Graham said from the recording booth. “Let’s wrap it up for tonight. I’m feeling
generous, so let me take everyone to the pub.” It was no surprise Graham was in
a great mood tonight. He didn’t like the scandal that surrounded Justin, but he
was delighted with the publicity that created renewed interest in Indigo.
Tickets for the three concerts had sold out, and Indigo’s back catalog was selling
well.“Excellent.” John stood up from the piano and closed the fallboard over the
keys. “I’m completely knackered. I could use a pint or two.”

Justin remained on his stool, pulling the guitar strap from around his shoulder.
“Are you all right?” John asked, gathering up his sheet music and placing it in a
carrier bag.“Yeah,” Justin muttered, rubbing his eyes.

Indigo’s other band members, Colin, Mike, and Liam, were gathered in the
recording booth listening to the playback. Justin could just make out the song’s
melody as it came through the slightly open door.

“This is a fascinating premise. Nerd meets rocker and finds an instant connection. I love
soulmates and was fascinated to see how things turn out, especially with Lucy's art
history background. The meet-cute was delightful and I enjoyed the growing relationship
between the two of them, fast-paced as it was. Both Lucy and Justin are fully fleshed
out characters with their own full lives.”
