Beauty Under the Blood
Fourth Chapter:
Lady In Red.
“Hi.” She waved, once Mike was near enough from him to hear her.
“Hi.” He answered back and glanced behind him, seeing the other guys looking at them and whispering to each others. “So…you look…really pretty.” He said, words coming out of his mouth really slowly. Candice chuckled and thanked. “Those are from the band.” He continued, pointing to behind his back. “I got to warn you, they can be a little immature sometimes.” Mike said as soon she started walking towards them.
“So you must be our new personal agent.” Chester smiled, once they got near them. Candice smiled and greeted everybody. “Yes, I’m agent Atwin.”
“And what’s your first name?” He asked while she sat next to Mike. She smiled, but didn’t show very comfortable over that question. “Oh come on, you’re not just going to work with us, we’re going to be friends!” He said cheerfully.
Candice chuckled by the way he talked, he seemed to be a very funny guy. “Well, my name’s Candice.” She ended up saying.
“Candice…hum…it kind of sounds like candy. It suits you.” He said in a greedy smile.
In that moment Mike kicked Chester’s leg beneath their table, causing him to suddenly whimper, but then to smile. He was pissing Mike and he knew it. Once they got home, he knew that Chester would probably start with his stupid commentaries about him being interested on her. But he didn’t care because, after all, she was an astonishing woman and he knew he wasn’t the only one to think that.
“I don’t like people to call me that.” Candice warned him, now with a serious face.
“Would you like something to drink?” Brad asked her, breaking the silence that she had created. “Yes, but I’ll get it myself.” She said, getting up and heading to the bar.
“She’s pretty damn hot…” Phoenix commented.
“Yeah, I bet that’s why Mike got so excited about her coming, isn’t that Mike?” Chester eyed him. “I bet you already had dinner with her and all that stuff, right?”
It seemed like Mike was wrong. Chester didn’t even need to get home to start with those stupid remarks. It was in his being.
“No…I did not. And you know that it her idea to go with us.” He calmly said, making Chester to frown his smile. He knew he wasn’t getting any from Mike.
“Hi again.” Candice said, placing her drink on the table.
“Hey! Nice tattoo!” Chester pointed down at her foot. She looked down and so did the rest of the guys. She had a gorgeous tattoo on her left foot with flowers and some kind of branches connecting them, which came from about her middle toe to a few inches above her ankle.

Mike stared at her feet for a few seconds, her tattoo almost made her look like a fairy, along with those beautiful, shinning, black sandals. She sat and smiled at him.
“That’s a really pretty tattoo.” He said, trying to look away from her smile. It was simply outstanding.
“Thanks Mr. Shinoda.”
“Oh please! Don’t call me that, just Mike. We’re now coworkers.” He emphasized.
“Ok… Mike.” She shyly said.
Oh, his name coming out of her mouth, Mike thought. It was beautiful to listen to it, it almost sounded like music to him.
Candice looks at her watch. It was almost 11pm. The last people were now arriving and the place was getting really crowded. A tall guy with short curled hair approached them.
“Hey Matt!” The guys greeted. “Candice, this is Matt one of our check sound guys.” Chester introduced.
“Yeah and Matt, she’s the agent that’s going on tour with us.” Brad explained.
“Oh yeah, you’re already told me that.” He said. “So Candice…Would you like to dance?” He asked.
Everybody stopped and looked at her. Mike had the most surprised and fearful look on his face, but thankfully she was also looking at Matt and not at him.
“I don’t know…” She glanced to the dance floor. There were about 9 people dancing randomly. “I’m sorry but I don’t think so. But thanks anyway.” She showed him a pitiful smile. He smiled back and said goodbye to everyone.
“Oh, finally!” Rob suddenly said, looking at the door. There were five women; all of them well dressed up, who she obviously found out to be their wives. However the fact of Mike didn’t have brought anyone to that party left her curious. He obviously wasn’t married, he wasn’t wearing any wedding ring and there wasn’t any female presence when she went to his house neither. But, to her eyes, he was friendly and cute, maybe more than the others and even the less immature. She felt that she could trust him.
*****
Candice looked once again at her watch. It was 00.02 am. She had been talking with Mike for the last hour, while the others guys just danced with their wives and talked to other people. They saw a tall, brown haired guy heading towards their table, who Mike immediately introduced as being Mark, they camera man.
“And you’re Candice, right?” He asked grinning. “I’ve heard a lot of good things about you. Anyway would you like to dance with me?”
Mike looked at her once again. That was the fourth time a guy had asked her to dance, that night.
“I’m sorry, but no. I don’t really like to dance, but thanks.” She lied. There were three big passions in her life, which were dancing, playing the piano and saxophone and finally, practicing martial arts. The last one she had learnt to like due to her job.
She looked at her empty glass and thought about going to the bar and get another drink.
“Would you like another drink?” Mike asked, as if reading her thoughts.
She smiled but denied. She didn’t want him to know her secret. In fact she didn’t want anyone to know. She had an alcohol problem; she got drunk too easily, easier than anyone she ever met. It was like the alcohol hit her twice as in a normal person. Only the people from her past knew and one of them was her ex-boyfriend. She hated herself for letting her fall in hi trap and, most of the times due to the alcohol she drunk with him, letting him do everything he wanted.
Mike noticed her bothered face and cleared his throat, making her to snap out.
“Maybe I should go home, Mike.” She affirmed after wondering for a few seconds. “It’s getting late and tomorrow I need to go to work.”
He nodded without making any question and trying to look the less down as possible.
After a few goodbyes and some more minutes of talking, Candice got out with Mike escorting her. They were turned back to the building, when a song started to echo from the inside. The voice as almost impossible to recognize, but still, Candice stopped, closed her eyes and tilted her head back, enjoying the soft melody. Mike gazed at her without disturbing, while a smile appeared on her face.
“God, I really love this song. It is so beautiful… I love to dance at the sound of it.”
Mike smiled, not making an effort to stop admiring her. She had a beautiful expression on her face, a mix of happiness and serenity.
“I thought you didn’t like to dance.” He ended up saying.
She opened her eyes. “I never got to finish those sentences.” She showed a flirty smile. “I didn’t like to dance…with those guys.
Mike’s smile only didn’t turn to a chuckle due to his nervousness. Either he was getting too obsessed or she was giving him a sign. He looked at the end of the lifeless road, then at her, then at his feet and back at her.
“In that case…Would you like to dance?”
