Rockstar 04 Interlude(34)
To the readers- Thank you for taking a chance on me. Every day I'm thankful for you.
To the bloggers – Thank you for EVERYTHING you do … it doesn't go unnoticed by me. I appreciate you more than words can say for your selflessness.
To my street team – Janelle Schindler, Mandi Wathey, Cindy Carlson, Melissa Steps, KarriLynn Le Blanc, Dawn Stanton, Kelly Emery, Tera Chastain, Lisa Sylva, Heather Wish, and Heather Brimeyer – Without you I couldn't function. You are my helpers and my promoters and my strongest supporters. I love you guys.
To Sara Eirew – Photographer and cover designer extraordinaire – You are amazing. Thank you for putting up with my quirkiness and pickiness. Thank you, too, for keeping me happy with David pictures.
To Cassy Roop – Thank you for taking the time to squeeze in my stuff last minute and give me such beautiful documents.
To Milo Ventimiglia for always being so gracious and kind. I will never forget our meeting. You're an incredible person.
To M. Shadows and Avenged Sevenfold – Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world. Your music inspires and motivates me and for that I'll always be grateful because without you, there would be no Rockstar series.

Myah
Dick. I'm thoroughly disgusted. Prick. A wave of revulsion runs through me as Lisa and I pass by Jason DeMarco in the hallway. Asshole.
"I just don't understand how some people think they have the right to touch people or things without permission."
Lisa shakes her head and mutters, "Motherfucking douchebag," as we walk past my nightmare in the form of a 17-year-old linebacker for our high school, Lake Point Academy South.
Now I'm going to stop right here for a minute and let you know that Lisa is full-blooded Italian, with the stereotypical Italian temper, and she's got a super filthy mouth. You can take the girl out of the Bronx, but you can't take the Bronx out of the girl. Seriously, she curses more than Alec Baldwin on a crack-induced temper tantrum.
Thing is, that's all offset by the fact she's gorgeous. I mean supermodel gorgeous at the age of seventeen. She's five eleven, blonde hair, blue eyes, 36-24-36, and I swear her legs go up to my chest. Jealous? A little. Envious? TONS.
"You remember my Uncle Leo?" she asks.
"The scary one that lives in Brooklyn?"
"Yeah."
I nod. Oh yeah, I remember her Uncle Leo. He's gigantic, like six three, two hundred fifty pounds of intimidation. I nearly peed my pants (literally) when I met him for the first time. There was just so much of him and his scowl could send the bravest of men crying in the corner-I shit you not. Those frighteningly piercing eyes, Robert DeNiro scowl, and nose that had obviously been broken more than once had a shudder running through me every single time I looked at him. He reminded me of an Italian version of a very pissed off Brock Lesnar. Yeah, no thanks. He thought my reaction of wanting to run away from him as fast as I could was funny, yet he tried to reassure me that, through Lisa, I was part of the "family" so, as her best friend, I was safe.
"Well, he's got connections if you know what I'm saying."
"Uh, 'family' connections?" I wonder, not for the first time, if he's mob or mafia or whatever they call it now.
Lisa nods. "He has friends … associates who can make accidents happen."
My eyes widen. I mean, this shouldn't come as a shock. I kinda figured out what "family" meant, but still having their services offered is pretty effing terrifying. I have no idea what to say so I just remain quiet and bug-eyed.
"That motherfucker over there could have a really, really bad accident. Leo knows people who would be on the next flight out to take care of his bitch ass."
It's a tempting proposition. I tilt my head to the side as I ponder Lisa's offer for a moment. Her eyes widen and she grins when she sees me seriously considering it. The bastard truly deserves it but …
"That might be taking things a little too far."
Lisa grabs my arm gently and angles her head down the hall. "Hottie central."
I look down the hall and see a group of gorgeous maleness. Lucas Matthews aka Luc, Lisa's sexy boyfriend; Marcus Stewart aka Stewie; Jackson Brandt aka Jack; and the one and only Kyle Cooper aka Coop.
"Damn. Right there are four tall, muscular, extremely attractive and sexy male specimens."
"Wipe the drool, Myah."
"Why? I'm proud of this drool. I'm gonna let it drip off my chin."
