I turned and reached for the dressing room door to close it behind us, but it slammed in my face.
That was weird.
A chill teased my neck, and I shivered, looking around. “Did you feel that?”
Regan stared at me like I’d lost my mind.
I turned to Brodie, but he just smirked.
“Don’t say a word,” I warned.
“I can’t promise that.”
We made our way toward the ancient stairwell and back up to the main floor.
Ace and Colm were still waiting in the hallway, chatting away.
“Sorry for the delay, folks.”
Colm looked at Brodie. “What happened to your face?”
Brodie flushed. Pretty sure I blushed, too, but I pulled out my phone as a distraction.
“I mean, what happened to your makeup?” Colm continued.
“Oh, it started melting under the heat of the stage lights,” Brodie replied. “I would’ve re-applied it, but then the power went off.”
Colm stared at him and then glanced at me. I shifted from one foot to another.
“Are we ready to go?” I asked.
“For sure. Are you coming with us?” Colm turned to Ace.
“Nah, I don’t go to those things anymore. But thanks.”
“Come on, you have to,” Colm insisted.
I watched Colm smile at our engineer. And the way Ace was looking back at him… I never would have guessed that.
“Yeah, Ace, come on. You deserve to have some fun after all your hard work,” Brodie encouraged.
“All right. But don’t expect me to dance,” he grumbled.
“You can join Van on the sidelines,” Brodie quipped.
“Brodie—”
“Let’s move, people! We’re already a half hour late,” Regan interrupted and waved us on.
All four of us walked the line, Colm sliding in beside Brodie with me and Ace following.
“The whole show was amazing, but that song you guys performed together? That was the highlight for me. It’s going to be a huge hit,” Colm gushed.
“See?” Brodie looked at me over his shoulder. “I told you the fans would love it.”
“And I told Van he should record it with you,” Ace replied and nudged me with his elbow.
“That’s a great idea!”
