It’s in the phases of the moon.
A warning call to the weak-hearted fool.
This girl she’s honestly flawless.
The type of girl whose smile brings you to your knees in wait.
She leaves me breathless, a lucky disaster I can’t escape.
Something.
Something inside that girl calls my soul.
Something that whispers that I belong with her.
I need.
I need to find the courage.
The courage to beg her to leap with me.
A leap of faith to teach me to love.
… While you fall in love with me.
(Chorus)
It’s in the tempo.
It’s in the phases of the moon.
A warning call to the weak-hearted fool.
This girl she’s honestly flawless.
The type of girl whose smile brings you to your knees in wait.
She leaves me breathless, a lucky disaster I can’t escape.
Matt’s soulful voice melds with the guitar as the sound pours out from him. Each note strums at my heartstrings. It’s as if nothing else exists in the room but him and me, until the crowd begins to applaud, stifling the illusion.
The sound of voices demanding drinks break the spell and take away the one moment of peace I had for the night.
Where is Tristan?
“Any particular reason why you work here?” Chris asks as he helps me clean the bar.
He, his husband, and Matt stayed after their performance, while Ainsley had to leave for the night. Mommy duty called. I wish I had met her.
“Are you a masochist of some kind?” Christian questions.
I release a laugh and shake my head. “No. It came with the housing.” I point toward the ceiling where I live. “Though working here has made my self-control stronger. I discovered that the more I’m around it, the less I’m likely to succumb to it. Maybe it’s psychosomatic, but so far, it’s working.”
His grin widens, and he doesn’t correct me or judge me. As he finishes drying the last glass, his husband approaches the bar from the other side. “Babe, are you ready to go?”
“Just about, Gabe. Have you met Thea?”
“Yes, Matt introduced me to her while I worked the bar along with them,” he responds, his eyes never leaving his husband. “Are you sure you should be working on that side of the bar?”
