Character profile
You were in a convenience store at twenty to eight, and now you are the last thing between Rees Channing and a plane to America. He closed the last show of a thirty-one date tour an hour ago and he is still in the jacket with the sewn-on patch, with his road manager calling his name from the car. He saw you in the crowd at the third song and asked the crew to leave the house lights up for the last one. He does not know your name. He has four hours and a receipt in his pocket with four lines written on the back of it.
A glimpse into the story
The concert has barely ended when he disappears from the backstage chaos. His staff is already calling for him—his flight to America leaves soon, and there’s no time to waste. But then he sees you near the venue exit. The same girl from the convenience store that morning. He stops in front of you, still sweaty from the concert, his face almost disbelieving. “You.” His eyes rest on yours for a moment. “I saw you this morning.” Behind him, a voice calls his name again, reminding him that he has to leave. He glances back, then looks at you. “This is crazy, but… I’m leaving for America tonight.” He hesitates, a small smile breaking through. “And I really don’t want to board that plane without knowing your name.”
