Heath sat hunched over his Burny bass, fiddling with the strings, obviously annoyed. He was annoyed because he had to stop the rehearsal to fix a snapped string, for which Yoshiki had been more than happy to bitch about. To Yoshiki, any relations inside the studio were strictly business. It didn’t matter if he loved you more than life itself because music was always his number one love and priority. Heath’s mind was obviously elsewhere as he never had such a concentrated look when doing something as routine as re-stringing his bass. He tightened and tightened the string with out even caring about the task in front of him. Lost in his thoughts and troubles, he unconsciously let out a huff.
“Are you fucking Yoshiki again?” Heath popped off another string and quickly straightened up, startled. “What??” He turned around to find Pata leaning against the doorway of his private practice room. Pata shut the door behind him and sat down on the black leather loveseat and crossed his legs. “You’re fucking him again, aren’t you?” Heath grew even more annoyed now that the subject that was haunting him was verbally brought up. “Pata, it’s none of your business what is or isn’t going on between Yoshiki and I.” “It is my business, Heath, when it starts fucking with the band’s rehearsal and performance.” Heath turned his attention back to his bass and sighed again, even more frustrated this time. It was obvious to Pata what Heath’s answer was. He scoffed and continued, “Heath, honestly. This again?? I thought you put a permanent end to this 10 years ago!” Heath continued to re-wind the popped string again, “I did.” “Then how the hell did this happen to just magically start up again?” Heath pretended to focus on his bass. “You didn’t tell him, did you?” Heath stopped winding and froze. He knew exactly what Pata was referring to and it was something he had really wished and hoped would never be brought up again. There was a moment of silence as Pata stared at the back of Heath’s head waiting for a reply. Pata sighed and stood up to walk out. “Pata.” The guitarist stopped just before reaching the doorknob. He half turned his head towards Heath. “Don’t fuck up rehearsal again,” he said sternly as he quickly opened the door and made his exit. Heath sat staring down at his bass. This was certainly not the right time for dormant problems from the past to awaken. He knew very well that nothing could get in the way of X’s reunion. Yoshiki would not have it. Not just Yoshiki, but the other members as well. The dark-haired bassist continued the winding of the annoying string and worked quickly to finish to get back to rehearsal. Long-repressed thoughts plagued his mind. He quickly brushed them aside. Now was certainly not the time to deal with his feelings towards Yoshiki again. Making a final adjustment on the new string, Heath picked up his bass and left the room and made his way down the hall and back to the rehearsal room. He walked in to feel eyes burning into the back of his head as he took his spot. Not just of Pata, but more than anything, he also felt the disappointed and slightly annoyed stare from Yoshiki. Though he fought it, all Heath could think of was last night. It was the first time in over a decade that Yoshiki had come to him just to have someone to sleep next to. Heath wasn’t quite sure if Yoshiki had ever been so sensitive with him as he had been lately. Yet he still wondered if it was real. Among a plethora of other thoughts plaguing him, some guilty, some pleasurable, Heath forced himself to ignore his daydreams and focus his full and undivided attention on his rehearsing. He couldn’t afford to fuck up anymore. Channeling all of his frustrations and insecurities into his playing, Heath sighed away all of his distractions and focused as Yoshiki started the count-in for I.V. for probably the hundredth time that day. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************ TO BE CONTINUED...While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
